Jig for walleye in the spring, bass after that. Big time whitetail hunter spend most of my time working fields, settting up / looking for new spots. This year after 6 years of waiting and collecting points will be taking a trip to the U.P. for a black bear hunt.

Spring - Maumee River Walleye
Summer - Kayak fish inland lakes for bass and pike
Fall - Annual fishing trip to Baja Mexico for marlin, tuna, dorado, wahoo, sailfish and more
Sometime through the year try to make a trip to Florida gulf bottom fishing for grouper and snapper

Starts out with spring browns at ice-out, pickin some morels, spring walleyes, then the big lake for kings, a few trips for walleyes over to the bay, some big lake tournaments, more big lake fishing, then into bowhunting, picking some stumpy and oyster mushrooms, steelhead fishing the beach, rifle season, steelhead in PM Lake and the shoreline, some bunnies, coyote hunting, and back to icefishing. I think I need another hobby in there somewhere. But my wife may disagree.

Spring - Fish steelhead, walleye, panfish, hunt morrels and a little turkey hunting.

Summer - Camp, walleye, bass, panfish, trout, salmon on the big lake.

Fall - Salmon on the rivers, walleye, bass, waterfowl, deer, camp.

Just enjoy the out doors.

after ice out I get my Harley ready for spring,put any chrome on i may have boughten over winter and clean it thoroughly. I n the spring i crappie and bluegill fish along with riding our horses.We have a little land so it requires maintenance every year after the winter.My fishing tapers off when the heat gets here then i ride my Harley as much as possible.my fishing picks back up in September and October then it is bow hunting and pheasant hunting.I used to waterfowl hunt but gave it up for bow hunting.I usually stick a couple deer early so i can focus on the bird hunting and my 2 viszla's.Shotgun season for deer is a must then i am waiting for the ice!

Golf, Fish, Gamble, and stay in a Hotel. No Camp.

RealityCheck · « **Reply #45 on:** Feb 06, 2008, 05:52 PM »

In the spring I reload....shotgun and rifle ammo. I also find time for some sucker spearing. oh ya I work to support my bad habbits. In the Fall I process deer...alot of deer. You all go hunting.....I go harvesting. My bow is my weapon of choice. In the early winter it is rabbits, coyotes, and squirrels that catch hell till he ice is thick enough.

fishyeager · « **Reply #46 on:** Feb 06, 2008, 06:53 PM »

Spring = Lake Erie walleye jigging & crappie chasing.
Summer = Lake Erie walleye drifting & trolling.
Fall = Lake Erie walleye night fishing off piers.

That pretty much covers the off season - by winter I am ready to start fishing.

Slabber · « **Reply #47 on:** Feb 06, 2008, 07:04 PM »

Fish from shore or a boat. Reload ammo, shoot some of my guns. When all else fails I just kick back and drink my Strohs.

You might wanna take a look at NMU. Theres a lot of places to hunt and fish, especially ice fish. I've gotta do a better job prioritizing my time
