I will be there...I am new to the site.  Been a member for a while, haven't been around.

Never gone before, but will be fishing with some guys from this site.  Definitely excited!

The Best Western in jamestown is a good deal.  My mother works there as the sales manager.  As long as there is nothing going on at the hockey rink, you should be good there.

should be pushing 12 inch by Saturday, if not more.


I hope you all are ready for a large crowd.  Will Elliott gave it some run today...

Don't know when I'll be there.  I know I'll be down there Friday night, but where we fish is up to the crew.  We may be at Maple Springs, and if so, we'll see you all around lunch time.  If not, and we decide it will be LP, we'll be out there before first light.

I think my game plan is to go before first light to Maple Springs to try for walleye. A little later I will head to LP to meet up with the group. Would MS or Dewittville be better for the morning eyes?

Yes I am glad to hear they picked up the cost. Will be out on Ice or at the launch? If it is on the ice I got to have a picture of it for my signature on here. I'm still chuckling over it.
Hey Game Hog is the guy still bringing the Limo?  ;D ;D

Hey Bill,
 I sent you a PM but in regards to your question for Honeyoye and Silver Lake there is a lenghty thread started. Go look at some of the threads and you will see what they are doing. Did Honeyoye two weeks ago and did poor.

guess I figured the guy was joking about the limo in return I was joking about bringing it on the ice. My cavalier on the other hand... Really cool we are gonna have a porta john out there will help for sure. I saw this event mentioned in the buffalo news today kinda cool to see. I will be there very early after the eyes with a crew, hopefully they are willing to help get set up. Auger is running like a champ anyone with hole drilling issues please don't be shy, I would rather cut hundreds of holes than have to see people struggle. I found the boy some boots today quite a task finding "good" gear for younguns. There is gonna be quite a few people out there by the sounds a couple of my friends heard a couple different groups of guys at hogan's hut and happy hooker talking about it. Same friends also did real well on the perch at Long Point yeaterday. Gonna get out tomorrow night for some walleye fishing hopefully the fish will cooperate

I hope people are bringing kids I would like to have a derby for them. Free (obviously to enter) we will have a variety of prizes ( jigs, boxes, rods, reels, combos, tip-ups and the like) I have some stuff for it and i bought a few things also Irish jigger, who cannot make it, has offered some equipment which I will be picking up tomorrow for either the kids or for anyone who may not have everything they need to fish. We are all well stocked, if you do not think you can fish due to lack of equipment , you have no worries we can outfit you. I personally like to get people involved in this great sport. The kids derby will  be from 10-ish to 1-ish I really have not hashed out all the details, but we will be doing this. If it is on the fly, so be it the kids will have a blast. Gonna be longest fish and other unknown right now categories. Thanks for the advice on the boots I did end up finding a pair as well as some real high quality socks at tractor supply.

Ice is great at long Point.  I fished on 9+" of black ice with about 4" of snow on top.

Okay some good stuff being written here. First I seen Jim Beam and then fishing after hours for EYES.
Yup some good stuff. I plan on staying after hours on the ice for awhile. I did see it in the Buffalo Paper and it was definitly mentioned so we can expect a crowd.
I know I surely hope to run into Marcus and Game Hog. There some cool people to fish with the way they talk.
