[HuntingNY-News]

The two caught their share of walley from the shore this fall, and through the ice this winter.

Submitted photoFrancis Hardy with a nice winter walleye.I met Francis Hardy last weekend at the CNY Boat Show at the state fairgrounds and got into talking about fishing Oneida Lake. He sent me these two photos: one of himself, the other of his grandson, Keagan Borasky.

In the top photo, Hardy holds a nice walleye he caught recently while ice fishing with his grandson on Sylvan Beach over 18 foot of water in the middle of the day.

"We caught our limit between 2 & 2:30 pm," he said. "We were using another one of my favorite lures a gold and red Kastmaster 3/8 oz tipped with minnows jigging the bottom."

The bottom photo is an impressive walleye young Keagan caught this fall.

"We were fall fishing Oneida Lake at South Bay off shore at night," the grandfather said. "He was using my favorite lure which was a Junior Thunder Stick Storm perch color (original) you can't buy any more.That night we both caught our limit."
