Sent from my moto g fast using Tapatalk When they are biting like that i always want to stop and cast for them cause it's fun but then if limited out, usually just go in. Its too hard to release them. Lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marking fish all morning at times....then the fish finder was blank. Moved a few times between 25-37 feet but it was still a no go. July usually is typically a tough month on Eire....and they may be spilling into early August. Sent from my SM-A716V using Tapatalk We havent even been out lately. Last time( 2 weeks ago) out we put 12 smb bass ( 3guys) in the boat. All 1 pound'ish teenagers. Need ouside temps in consistant 70's for a long spell. So like you said september Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Water was probably pushing 74-75....and those temps just doesn't produce bass on Erie.Sent from my SM-A716V using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisw Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Live from the UPS man. My rod trees and brackets came in! Just waiting on the 5° stackers for my dipsys now! Rod trees does an awesome job for a reasonable price if anyone is in the market. They'll powdercoat them a bunch of colors too for no extra charge.

Sent from my moto g fast using TapatalkDoes that setup hold 2 or three rods? I just browsed their website and it looks like they have a great product. After running two rods on downriggers.....I think another 4 would be enough for my boat. Those trees look like they may do the trick for me.

josephmrtn Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Took the little man out and caught a nice smallie yesterday. Unfortunately fishing has been pretty slow for us this summer. Really wanting to buy a boat or canoe so that we can access more area's than a 5yo can travel too on foot. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-A716V using TapatalkI have the same trees but have the 3 rod version. Rarely run 3 junk lines a side but love having the extra rod holder there and handy! Someone else mentioned a net in the tube and that’s where my goes but do yourself cut a piece of pvc 10-12” shorter than the tube and slide it in and forget it. It sucks fishing 3ft of net handle out of those tubes!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diplomat019 Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Ended up with 5 mangrove snapper yesterday. Cast netted some glass minnows. Had one hit but didn't land it. Started fishing with a guy from Nebraska for most of the day. Was pretty fun just talking nonsense. And then some old timer on a sciff came by and gave us all his leftover shrimp, chopped it up for a little with us, and we ended up catching the mangroves with his shrimp. Fish tacos tonight it is! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diplomat019 Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Btw. I downloaded this app called “FishRules”. It locates your area and gives you all the regulations for where you are. I found it super helpful, regardless of the fact you should already know the rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisw Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Tougher bite today, caught more shorts than I have all season combined. I think we ended with 8 shorts and 4 keepers before we saw rain in the horizon and bailed.Sent from my moto g fast using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rachunter Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Caught a bunch of smallmouth this morning until the wind died down. Then the perch moved back in. I walked out to a drop off that was along a grass line and was throwing a white fluke. Some of the bass where pretty big to me anyway. Hopefully I can get back out this afternoon.
