Lake Erie pics
 

I may be boring some, but here's a few pic's. of this morn. on Erie. I'd like to see some pic's. of where you guys boat out of, also.

Here's a bit of our little lake called Lake Erie (little known fact - indian for 'lake of the cats'). Thank you Cliff Claven.

ARGGGH!! Raping and pilaging. Maybe a ship like the one used by Perry (see below)

Perry monument - Commadore Oliver Hazard Perry wins the 'Battle of Lake Erie' to solidify the victory in the war of 1812. Thanks again Cliff!
That ferry is a jet catamarran called the jet express going out of 'party central' known as Put-N-Bay on South Bass Island. They bring over normal people, get them absolutly loaded, simultaniously taking all their money and then exchange them for a new batch. Love it.
That bad boy moves! At cruise it's speed, I prob. could not catch it at WOT. Although if a 'ferry' were behind me I could move faster!

The winery on Middle Bass Island - same story - drunken debochery(sp). I'm sure I've prob. seen Billy Mac out at one of these two places.....but who'd know!

RAP thats a fine lookin yeller there but me thinks that's not yer V-20.

Wise, I lived in Weirton, WV for five years, working in OH, and fished out of Port Clinton mostly, PC was about 2 hours for us if I can remember. First Walleye I ever caught was over 9#'s.

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

rap -- That's incredible! I can't imagine going out 60 miles into the wild blue. WOW

slot -- 9's a hell of a starter.

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

Air, you got that right...much as I luv 'em, ain't takin' V-20 out 60 ...can turn too nasty, too quick :o ...my Capt buddy assumed that was a "Yellow" also, but a sharper eye at the dock identified that Tuna w/ another name and encouraged me to go weigh it, which I did, for an ongoing tournament...1/2lb under one that was weighed earlier; according to the guy who weighed it who was the son of the guy who caught the bigger one... ::) ...ya think? ::) ...

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

Yes I've been to the winery up in Perry's monument and had pizza at the round house, beer at Frosty's. Put in bay is a party place. There is also great fishing in and around the Bass Islands. Billy Mac ;D

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

Yo RAP, what was the ID. It looks like the first dorsal is folded down and on that assumption the pec is too long to be a BFT. THe caudal fin does look short for a YFT. IT's definately not a longfin albe. What was the ID?

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

Wiseguy, great pics. Super clean boat as well. Erie is great I hear for diving.

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

Ya know I've been wanting to dive here, I've had my C card for years. Got to get my platform/ladder mounted sometime. A lot of wrecks in this lake. Water temp about 80 now.

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

Going out today, will be posting some pics. Hopefully this weekend I might get a dive in.

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

I made this, and you can watch it, its from 3 years ago since I have not fished the last two.

Most is in the Vinyard, and you will even see a camo of BS & CB they were fishing in there boat and took the pic's of me flying around.

Also some beach shots from Race Point, I use to drive out there with the Blazer, with the wife and kids.

The rest of the people will be my dad who is paralized from a accident, and loves to come every year from VT to fish.

also my son and daughter and some great friends are the cast!!

took me a little to learn all the things in the movie maker, but I am happy with the end result!!

Its 3.44 min long

Hope you enjoy!!

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

Awesome MJ! That song goes right along with the pics too. Good job ;)

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

Ok, here's a couple of pics I snapped on a 50' Hatteras offshore fishing out of Morehead NC a couple months ago.

First one, this was on the way back in and the following sea had us moving slow - you wouldn't believe how big this wake got. At times you couldn't see out the window :o

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

Well done MJ! I would love to have a movie like that of my boat, friends and family to watch during the long winter months.

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

hey slot, i am originally from wheeling wv, and my wife is from weirton!

Small world ;D

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

Good job, MJ...that's some great stuff, fishin', family and all...hard to beat ;) 8) ...

parishht!!...I startled on the picture of YOU ??? ...I have a 2nd cousin, lineman for SC Electric & Gas LOOKS JUST LIKE YOU....they say we all have a twin somewhere ::) ...I know where yours is ;) ...

...and BR, we gotta do the Oregon Inlet trip this year... when should I plan on??...and what's creel limit on those stripes per person, per day??...I don't know nothin' 'cept I wanna go!! ;) 8) ...

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

TWIN!?

You would not believe how many people tell me that I have a twin somewhere.
I would guess at least five times a year I hear "you look like..." The best is when I am in another country and somebody says that.

Maybe my dad really got around ;D

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

Airslot...just talkin' w/ Capt Nick...that was a Black Fin ;) ...little over 31 lbs...got beat by another that was 1/4 lb more :'( ... ;D ;D ...

parishht...was your dad ever in Aiken SC ?? ::) ...this guy looks more like you than his own brother and sister ... ;D ...

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

I think it is 2 per person at 28" or greater? Maybe 28.8"?

January ;)

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

I'll call it 29" and block out January...we gonna stay all month?...can we, can we??... ;D ;D ...

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

We can stay until we get tired of striper fishing, die of exposure, or our wives leave us - which ever one comes first!

;D

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

Hi-Five!! 8) ...

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

Thanks guys!!!

But you all can do it also! Not that hard and if you have XP its already in your computer.


You all have some great pic's there!!

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

Good job MJ, I hope to do that kind of film work soon myself, good shots, good fish and good friends.

All you guys put some nice scenes in, I would not be able to pick which one I would want to see or fish first.

Just think about how lucky we all are to have all this available to us, what a beautiful country ;)

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

2nd that big time Willy.

I don't see how Columbus mistook this land for India....I've never been there but I'd imagine there's no comparison. ;)

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

Blue I have been fortunate to travel a fair piece of this world and 95% of this country and Canada and while there are fabulous places almost everywhere I went this country just amazes me with the vastness of diverse systems and how gorgeous they are. People lose the scale sometimes in the big picture, most of the country's in Europe are about the same size as our smaller states. Just look at the diverse systems and fisheries on our east coast, gorgeous and huge never mind the left coast and the great lakes.

FAN FU!!$$&& TASTIC ;D

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

One of the most amazing trips I have made is to drive
from Pa. to Los Angeles, Ca.
My kids moved there when they left home.

The U.S. is just an amazing country.
I still think that if someone wants to imigrate here,
they should be required to make the cross country drive,
just to see and learn why we are so proud of the U.S.

Re: Lake Erie pics
 

MSBHAMMER should recognize this shot I found while
looking through my hard drive.

The Lewes marina where he puts in and
the green awning of the Irish Eyes bar and resturaunt where we both go on occasion:
