It's a good time to fish here
If anyones interested in fishing. I know we talked about this earlier but it's been a slow start. There's lots of bait showing up, the tarpon are starting around the cape. 10000 islands are world class hot right now.

Man oh man, I really wish there was halfway decent fishing up here. In the '60s-early "70s I used to fish a lot, but never really had much success, other than hooking those teeny bluegill/sunfish. Now that the kids are grown and gone and I'm on disability I'd like nothing more than to find someplace that had reasonably good fishing, and head out from time to time. So far I haven't found anything, and I've been so out of touch with doing this that I'll have to start from square one as far as what to do, how to do it, and where to do it.
flts, I do wish I could come down there and fish with you. That'd be a real hoot, and probably good therapy too. Just too far to go right now, especially with the current health situation.
I might try looking for a charter boat on Lake Michigan and go for salmon/steelhead/etc.

I grew up fishing on lakes in Eastern NC, specifically the Havelock area, where my late uncle was a member and managed a hunting and fishing camp. One of the lakes there is now named after him (Lake Ellis Simon). We caught mostly bass and perch, and sometimes catfish (hard to get a hook out of a catfish!). I never got that much into casting. I really love just putting a worm on the hook, throwing it into a nice calm spot among the lillypads, and watching the cork go under. And also looking out for all the cool critters like snakes, alligators, turtles, osprey, cormorants, deer, turkeys, the occasional black bear, etc. It was a great life and one I miss sometimes. But the camp isn't the same now. All the kids just ride around on their four wheelers and ignore the water. A shame...
