Jolly II Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Hey to all! I've got a wicked bad case of spring fever, and I've got fishing on the brain. Who doesn't at this point??I've been fishing Lake Ontario since the late 70s, I was 5, with my Dad and my Uncle. Started in a 14' motor boat, flat lining rapalas for spring browns. In the early 80s my Dad designed a sideplaner release, some of the people who have been doing this for 20+ years may remember them, the Jolly Release. My Dad still sales a few to the last faithful holdouts. I still use them on my boat in the spring for browns. After all the years of fishing I decided to get my captain's license 2 years ago, and have been slowly building a charter business. It's been slow and coming, not the best economic climate for a new business, plus the Lake Ontario fishery isn't widely marketed as a tourist activity in our state, so much so that people I got to church with traveled to Lake Michigan to book a salmon fishing charter, lol. It's hard work (never been afraid of that), but I do love it. Just saying high, and looking forward to share my thoughts and practices with everyone here.Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
