Images

Keep in mind that I am always looking for images for our newsletter; fish, sunsets, sunrises, other anglers fishing, equipment, anything fishing related. I can use them all.  Large, unedited images are best. Thanks.

You got, you got, you got, what I need!

Hey Guys, if there is anyone out there that has any perch baits that they want to get rid of, please let me know. I would like to grow my small collection of lures to include these, as well as others. Hit me up and I will be happy to check them out. I would also love to get some Toothy's.

Fishing with Friends!!

I had the great pleasure fishing with Jay Nannen, the Sunday that just passed, and although all I got was a bite that resulted in a tube that was teeth slashed (and a few cases of the dreaded “tube rash”). Thank you Jay!! It felt great just to get out and enjoy the water, the sun, and the extremely cool company! I had a great time!!

Also, in the last few weeks, I had the great pleasure of fishing with Tony Scime, and Adam Kazmark, and they also provided me great company and a great…

OHD's Kids Fishing Derby Update

It reminded me of Marc Arena's fish from Caney Creek at the PMTT in Cave Run in 2003.  Marc and Rod Ballard were up against it when Marc Caught a 41" to tie for fourth place in the event on the last day.  With one minute to spare, at 11:59 AM this morning a young man was heard screaming and was bolting for the weigh-in station (a pagoda and picnic tables) at the Old Homes Days' Kids Fishing Derby at Island Park in Williamsville, as most of the competitors were waiting for the final results. …

Does everyone remember the postcards we filled out last year urging congress to take action on the Asian Carp issue?  A couple of days ago I received an e-mail update from Freshwater Future (some of you may have also received this e-mail):

Congress included a measure in the latest highway funding bill to order the Army Corps of…

"July Madness"

I once had July Madness.  I stayed at a lake in northern New York and only ate pike from a lake with high levels of mercury.  At the end of month long stay I started eating the fish from the lake raw.  I ate their heads, bones, skin... everything. Also, I found this ring on my first day there and was referring to the fish as "My Precious". This didn't really happen, but I needed a hook to get you interested.  A hook about as dull a Monster Tube's you've snagged ten times and haven't touched…

In praise of Scott Mckee for the great job on the site

I just wanted to give Scott the praise he deserves for creating and managing such an awesome site.  I know it is still early in the year but I would like to nominate Scott for the NMA Memorial award.  Not only for the work he has done on the site but also the newsletter, the Pig Roast and all he has done to create such a great social atmosphere within the NMA.



It is also great that the membership on the site is now up to 76 and still climbing.

I'm going to be at Conesus lake…

Nice video Jimmy

Good work Jimmy on the video. If that does not make you want to get up at the "Crack of Assanity" , then nothing will.

Rochester area group

I want to encourage all members in the Rochester area to join Rochester area group to make it easy to find and share rides or hook up for fishing with someone locally.

Also, anyone who lives east of Rochester may find it useful if you want to go to Buffalo to fish or for a membership meeting but you need a partner to fish with and/or share expenses with.

You can find it in the left column of the page under "Groups " below "notes".

Openning Day FYI

Hi Guys & Gals,

Just wanted to let you know that we have nets out in the harbor (south end marina, Bell Slip, Ice Boom Bay, Black Rock Canal) and river (Strawberry Island Bay, just downstream of Strawberry, breakwaters @ SE tip of Grand Island, Grass Island) for our research.

Best of luck & keep your eyes peeled for tagged muskellunge!
