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.

Merry Christmas to all. All our thoughts and prayers also to the Newtown innocents and the victims in Webster, NY.

I just wanted to take the time to thank everyone who attended the Christmas party this evening. I also wanted to thank everyone who brought desserts, they were super yummy!!!! How awesome was the Musky cake that the Kempfs brought?!?!?! Also, I forgot to thank everyone at the meeting (I was too busy talking sorry!) but I wanted to make sure to thank everyone for not being Scrooge (isn't that how Frank put it?) and for being extra generous with the food donations for the food bank of WNY. …

My sister sent this to me.
In today’s age, musky anglers practice catch-and-release method
Admin: I fixed the link. Thank you Steve for posting this and thanks Scott K. for taking the author out.

Talked to booger at Waneta lake today. He told me that yesterday a 51" musky managed to hook two fishermen. It was a three treble lure. The tail hook was in the fish, one of the other hooks was in the palm of one guys hand and the other hook was in the knuckle of the other guys finger (he caught the fish). The guy with the hook in his palm just ripped it out. The one in the knuckle had to be cut off. Apparently he didn't have health insurance but I think they took him to the hospital…

WoW! I fish for one eleven hour day and I miss more activity in that time that the site has ever had. In fact there are five members on-line right now and it's almost 11PM.
It's too bad that some of the posts are trying to cast a shadow over what is without a doubt a 50" musky caught from our beloved Niagara. Cullen's fish is glorious! It is a cause for celebration! It gives me hope. It motivates me to fish better, longer and harder. It strengthens my resolve to be ready when…

Good Day
FYI A very discouraging report for all.
Niagara River / Buffalo Harbor FIsheries Monitoring Report Fall 2012
Region 9 Fisheries continued coorerative efforts with SUNY College of Forestry at Syracuse to monitor young Musky production and associated fish assemblages in near shore vegatated shallow of the river and harbor. Seining efforts produced "NO" young of the year (YOY) at two sites in the Buffalo Harbor. The first year since seining started in 2007 that…

I don't know how many out there know, but if you're thinking of winterizing soon, the NOCO gas station on Rte 5 across the old Bethlehem steel plant (and windmills) sells ethanol free gasoline. It's their premium gas & sells for about $4.29/gal. They're about two miles South of the SBH, right on Rte 5, on the left side as you're traveling toward Hamburg, just before you get to Woodlawn. They started carrying eth-free this summer & ever since then, I used…

A Happy Veteran's to all you vets out there & thanks for serving. Glad we made it back to fish for muskies & can get together for a good time at the meetings. I hope you got to do what you wanted to today.

I can't imagine this club without Jojo. Like any club, a few key members do most of the work. the newsletter Scott puts out looks like a National publication.
Was that one of our guys who found the cadaver near Beaver Island marina? They showed a blue Starcraft on the news. I thought of our guys right away. You see duck and musky hunters out there this time of year, and not many others.

Jon MacSwan, our president for eleven of the club’s seventeen years of existence, was guilty of taking hard working members for granted and so am I. I remember a board meeting years ago when Jon asked Tony Scime to accomplish some task and then capped off his request by saying, “that’s easy right?” Tony replied with a resounding, “No! It’s not!” Tony was at the end of his rope. He may have been a bit burned out with the club at the time and he gave the impression that he was going to…

Scott asked me tonight, “After your 40 what is your next Musky fishing goal?” “Ummmm…” I had to think, my primary goal was 40” since I hadn’t hit that mark yet, but what was next? My immediate (kind-of) response was 45”, well maybe 42”. (I don’t want to appear over-confident; the Musky-gods hate that!) I feel that I have no right to hope for anything more considering I have had the best season I ever had (number of fish, and largest.) Scott shared that his goals at the beginning of…

For those who are interested, here is a link to purchase a NYS fishing license online. After you purchase it, you can print the receipt which you can use as proof of license (for 14 days) until you receive the permanent license in the mail.

Does anyone know the rules regarding storing a boat in your driveway in Williamsville. Some lady there told me that you cannot store a boat in your drive way, period, and said that it must be stored in a garage, or I would have to get a dry storage facility to house it. I have never heard of this. I see boats in driveways all the time around here. The lady was yelling at me when I tried to explain that I see boats in driveways all the time around here.

I’ve owned a lot of fishing reels over the years. Trolling, baitcasting, spinning, fly, expensive, cheap, new, used, etc.. I’ve had a few reels I’ve relied on for years and years and a lot more that haven’t even lasted a season. When I picked up the Club’s new Shimano Tranx from Frank Stachowiak this afternoon my jaw hit the ground. Wait until you see this bad boy. It is a monster. It would scare Godzilla. The picture of the Tranx in September’s newsletter does it no justice at all. …

I’m about as handy repairing fishing reels as I am accustomed to travelling to the moon. I don’t have the skills, patience or knowledge required for this delicate process. Fortunately there is a member of our Club who is the Neil Armstrong of reel repair. Chris Kempf, owner of Chris’ Reel Repair, gave a very interesting and informative talk tonight at our meeting. He thoroughly convinced me and most in attendance that we don’t know what we’re doing and he does. I would have enough parts…
