  1. Northwoods Outlet always has good deals on Convectors.... hard to beat their prices. CV-55L for $74.99 http://northwoodsoutlet.net/store/index.php?route=product/product&filter_name=convector&product_id=2099
  2. Closing the salmon season until mid May or reducing the creel limit is making the assumption that the forage base can currently support what is out there. The jury is still out on that... there are still too many predators (lakers included) to keep a sustainable alewive population. We might have to knock it down even more to allow the alewives to survive....... it's a slippery slope every way you look at it.

Quincy Street Meats is the title sponsor for the Women’s tournament, and first prize will take home $1000.00 on a $50.00 entry fee. Friday night is the famous Chicken Dinner put on by Beechwood Inn. This year we will be holding the raffle after the chicken dinner on a select number of quality items. Saturday and Sunday we fish the Classic--Catch 12, weigh your best 5.Quincy Street Meats is back again as the Anchor sponsor. Payouts will be $7000.00 for PRO and $3500.00 for AM. Big Fish of each species pays each day for $100.00 or prize of equal or greater value (salmon, steelhead, lake trout, brown trout). Big Fish for the weekend takes the gamblers pot. We will have a pig roast Saturday after the weigh-in and brats on Sunday. If you are looking to pre-fish the area and want a little practice, the Holland Steelheaders is holding their Men’s tournament the weekend before Saturday, July 26th. Go to their website (www.hollandsteelheaders.org) to sign up and for more details. Online signup for the Big Red Classic is now open. Go to our website (www.bigredclassic.com) to signup and to find more details. There is also a link on our main page to see who is already signed up. Please forward this message to anyone who may like to fish the tournament!
  6. Theres probably a bar above that asking if you want to install the mobile add-on, just cancel that and the toolbar should go to the top. This helped me. I had the same issue when accessing from my Galaxy S4. My phone still will only connect when I'm on certain networks. Most of the time the web address will not resolve when connected over 4g---I have to be on a wireless network. Some wireless networks don't work either. I have a few buddies who don't access this site anymore because they can't load it up on their phones.
  7. Maybe the steel headers should fund a lost and found box so if some one leaves a knife at the cleaning station you can drop in in a locked steel box. Then you could contact. The steel headers to check it if you lost something. It won't. Prevent theft... but I think it could help!
  8. I have some 330 GTIs and they barely fit a 250 copper. You have to make sure and have fireline or powerpro backing. I would say "no". A 300 copper will not fit on a 320 GTi or a Magda 30. They are both too small. Buy a Convector 55L for 300 coppers, you won't be sorry.
  9. I second the BuggSpray... I think SeaCatMich put me on to it... we have had it on the boat for 3-4 years and it works pretty good.
  10. Here is a great article on it: http://www.yachtingmagazine.com/electronics/chirp-technology I would love to see it in action. The military has been using it for some time.
  11. Most tournaments state 'licensed charter captain' onboard. I don't think it matters who owns the boat. Some even qualify it to licensed within the last 5 years.
  12. I saw them first hand at the sport show last year and I thought they were as good if not better than Big Jon's. I ended up finding a deal on some Big Jon's so that is what I have. All metal construction... I don't think you can go wrong.
  13. If trading were legal... it would be exploited and we would no longer have 'sportfishing' for salmon. People would do it for profit and deplete the resource. It's counter intuitive.
  14. Gmfishon..... are you the fish nazi, do you work with the cops? Sent from my SCH-I545 using Great Lakes Fisherman mobile app
  15. Verizon. I just downloaded the GLF app and connected to my wifi and it's working now. It's almost like some connections have a crappy route... maybe some bad DNS entries floating around. Any idea if the IP changed recently? Sent from my SCH-I545 using Great Lakes Fisherman mobile app
  16. I got a new phone today... Samsung Galaxy S4. I cannot access this site with it. I get a 504 unavailable error. The site takes too long to load and the gateway times the session out. I get a similar experience with a Windows Business Vista, IE9 machine... although with that one If I wait 2 minutes it finally loads.
  17. On a side note... this is on my WANT list... a chamber style vacuum sealer: http://www.amazon.com/VacMaster-Portable-Chamber-Vacuum-Sealer/dp/B003YE8FG0 I read somewhere that in Alaska the foodsaver style vacuum sealers are at every garage sale because people are investing in chamber style sealers. They do a MUCH better job. Anyone have one that can chime in? I would use it for salmon and venison.
  18. I would say --years-- if its vacuum sealed well. I have fresh frozen walleye from erie that was 2 years old this winter frozen in a block of ice and it tasted great! Smoked fish has way less water in it too so it might not freezer burn as bad too. I've been bugging my brother that we should smoke a ton, vacuum seal it, and put it in the freezer to forget about it and it never happens. We always eat it too quick!
  19. Vista Business... max level of IE you can run is 9. I do not have issues with IE10 with this site on another machine that runs Windows 7.
  20. I have issues with IE9 that just started in the last two weeks. It takes like 2 minutes to load this site, and once it loads, anything I click on takes like 2 minutes to load. I've tried everything... clearing cache, flushing DNS. Running IE with no plugins. I don't have problems with other sites in IE9, just this one. With Chrome everything is super fast. I will just use Chrome for this site.
