The forecast DOES look better than it did yesterday. I'm in for 1-3's!! 
Much past that though, and I probably won't bother. Don't want to fish the river. I want to go and have fun with the "big girls". Who says obesity is a problem?
C'ya on the water,

Looks like I'll be fishing vicariously this weekend . . .
Good luck out there guys, hopefully I'll see you on the water in November . . .

Meg, the low's are only forcasted in the 30's now for Friday night. And the warming affect of the "warm" lake water should help to. I also see the wind forcast has dropped to "2 feet or less" status. By the time we get the the dang lake will be flat! LOL!!
You will have to ask Ted for proper directions for the drugs He's an expert on that!!
Glad things worked out!

John, if you are looking for a partner, I know someone who would very likely be able to fish with you. I can give you his phone number outside the board.Sea Jack said:Looks like I'll be fishing vicariously this weekend . . .

Who me??????
I'm not concerned about the temps........ I've got a windshield!

Ah, don't worry about the "drugs". I've perfected the art of chummin' off one side of the boat while jiggin' off the other side. I think it helps in getting an extra bite or two.

Hey, no one mentioned if they thought Larry should get a 5 (preferably 20) pound handicap due to his partner! I vote yes! I can just see it now- me, chumming, in the RAIN (check the weather channel now Noel), attempting in vain to figure out how to use a jigging spoon (yes Rob, I read the excellent article), with huge rollers.
Meg,
Zack and I went to Erie last Sunday. The best advise I can give you about 'spoonin' is to hang on with BOTH hands. We started drifting, and I was ripping that spoon with one hand, and suddenly, when I ripped it, it was 'solid'. The rod flipped up out of my hand, flew in the air, and landed on the trolling motor. Thankfully, it 'rolled' back onto the front of the boat right behind the trolling motor. As 'bumpy' as it was out there, I couldn't just grab for it, so I had to drop to my knees on the deck, and dive forward for the rod. Once I had control of it again, I said: 'there's one', hoping he didn't see me. When I looked back, he was 'rolling' in laughter. Guess he saw the whole specticle. Moral of the story: when one of those big ole 5+ girls decides to grab that spoon, they don't move 'up' very easily, everything 'stops' in a hurry! If your arms hurt when you get done, it will be the best 'pain' you ever felt.
It also happened a little later in the day, but, I managed to catch that rod in the air, after it flipped up out of my hand, and knocked my hat off. Bass fishing on Erie is a 'contact' sport.
I will say, they were full of ==== and vinegar, fighting up a storm. Lots of 5's out there, you'll have a ball.
And no, Larry doesn't need a handicap, he should 'spot' us a few pounds.

Got the spoon ready and can't wait..........
Gregg, you promise to take it easy on us? I haven't been there since the last time that lake handed me my a$$. Twice, this year!:cussing: It's almost embarrasing. Looking for some redemption.

Aaarggg!! Now we have conflicting weather reports for Erie tomorrow :cussing:
The marine forcast is saying 10-15 knots out of the south-southwest and waves 1-3 feet. Not too bad!!!
The general land public forcast is saying "breezy conditions" with a south wind at 15-25 mph.
I hope they figure it out before tomorrow!!
Well, almost out the door to Rob's house for the night. Got some jig pouring to do!

Ted,
Me take it easy on you guys??? More like Noel should take it easy on all of us!!
Well, the way I have it figured, I had a good weekend up there last weekend, so, that means I'm gonna get absolutely nothin' tomorrow. That seems to be the pattern for me. Hopefully Wade will carry us!
I think Meg and Larry are the ones to watch out for!
It's gonna be a bit 'frigid', I'm afraid. Trust me, don't use that spoon with gloves on, the rod tends to be a bit 'slippery'.
