  1. With all the sales taxes, fuel taxes, registration fees paid by boaters, the "rinky dinky town of Evans". That is where our money goes anyway. should turn over operation to the state Parks or County parks.
  2. Sturgeon Point Boat Ramp, One trailer, small boat out today Sand Bar is open at the end, small boat out. A large tire dump truck is parked doing nothing, but no excavator to load the truck is on site.
  3. 18 mile Creek Bridge parking lot, today 4 cars parked there. Water was clear and running.
  4. Now the State can construct a Boat launch and Marina at Woodlawn Beach State Park. It would be more efficient to Erie County Southtown residents and close to popular walleye and perch fishing. Using the State Park Site is a necessary improvement to Lake Erie access. Previously Woodlawn Beach was used for small boat launching and now there is almont a mile 0f unused area . Come on now and start urging for public access to the lakefront area that is an abandoned state site. From the already built Woodlawn Breakwater to the Woodlawn Beach State Park is inaccessable to New Yorks residents and out of state tourists. We spent billions of State funds for Niagara Falls State Parks but nothing for local residents.
  5. Lightning strikes at three thousand degree heat will burn the insulation off the generators and wiring. Living on the lake shore for thirty years now I have watched thousands of lightning strikes for years now. Who will pay for the repairs on the water sites. At least landside installations are accessible for repairs and ther are hundreds of empty hilltops available with high winds.
  6. Mid May dredging of the sand bars shows the incompetence of our tax spenders, it is five months too late this year.
  7. Selling your fish is not a sin after you pay the State for a commercial Fishing license. Native Americans can fish with nets all year long, They never sold off their water rights.
  8. Check this out, three anglers, nine lines out, side planers, snap weights stick baits and planer boards, Huron, Ohio, my old lighthouse station
  9. Eight to twelve inch perch are easier to scale and process for meals at home. Smaller walleyes of 15 to 22 inches long are easier to scale and process. Larger older walleyes are more likely to contain dangerous chemicals that are a hazard to your family
  10. Is it better for USA residents to catch their own fish or have Ontario Commercial Fishermen supplying them here?
  11. Sunday there was several boats out off Eighteen Mile Creek to Wanakah. Where they launched may have been Sturgeon Point.
  12. I90 to I79 north to route 20 west a couple miles. Lots of newer walleye plugs with colors and sizes, different spoons and spinner blades available. Also hooks and side planer releases. Specializing in Lake Erie fishing gear. Fishermen here will be amazed at the selections.
  13. Before air conditioning was available Lake Erie shore beaches were the relief from hot summer heat. One such beach was Woodlawn Beach in the Town of Hamburg. Back before then the waters were colored with orange colored pickle liquor from the acid cleaning of steel. Yet hundreds of people swam there because it was the best thing we had. Lake Avenue had a roller rink, merry go round and a and al good crowd. The steel Company built homes for their employees there and allowed access. Today the edge of the old breakwater there could be used to construct a Marina and launch ramps there. only an outer breakwater and beach breakwater to open to the lake. Blasdell Creek which now flows from the industrial sites there is not a problem. It is closer for Southtown residents that do not have long distant round trips or suffer with the holiday and weekend gridlock situation at the City marina. Please talk this up with the public and maybe the tax spenders will give us something back.
  14. Taking 24 inch female walleyes for prize money is a strange comservation practice.
  15. Wake them up, our state and County politicians collect the boating sales taxes, registration fees, license fees, fuel taxes,.etc. so why to have to wait for local Town officials, who control things here, delay the use of our boats?
  16. The best fishing from Sturgeon Point in year 2024 has past us by and the positive action by our state politicians has not been woken up.
  17. Bragging about boxing out perch limits is just a true situation report that informs boat fishermen that it is success after his travel time and gasoline expenses are incurred.
  18. With little ice conditions this year, having a fixed date to open is incompetent.
  19. Brown Trout on both Lake Ontario and Lake Erie have exceeded over 40 inches in the lakes and spawning streams. Natural reproduction is mainly from New York State Fish Hatcheries. Also even huger Lake Trout are available there.
  20. For trophy trout fishing, open all year, the Lake Erie streams produce Rainbow Trout with lengths exceeding 36 inches. Most West Coast and Alaskan waters do not exceed these sizes.
  21. The warm winter has open fishing water all winter. "Boxed out" limits of yellow perch came in for years now, including this winter, but launching docks are not even being consider, by the old timers who have "no interest into getting out" they run these meetings of clubs ! But that means more perch for the real fishermen. The next move will be to put a season to protect the spawning in New York waters. The walleye season was started at these meetings but the Ohio biologists kept that season closing off the books, they have more walleyes and non resident fishing licenses sold there.
  22. The New York State launch ramp has boats leaving and parked boat trailers there. There maybe someone collecting the money there.
  23. The docks for mooring boats are in place but the access is still blocked by sand??????????
