  12. NORTH PERRY, Ohio - A small earthquake that was felt along the Lake Erie coast hit near Cleveland on Tuesday afternoon but caused no damage. The quake was recorded at 4:11 p.m. about three miles into Lake Erie near North Perry, about 40 miles east of Cleveland. Preliminary data show it registered a magnitude of 3.4, said Michael Hansen, coordinator of the Ohio Seismic Network, a division of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources that tracks earthquakes. http://www.ohio.com/mld/beaconjournal/news/state/14862794.htm

    Timeburner!

    The tale has not been told here.
  16. When I drive boats, the rods start popping. I got the brown and the sixshooter fish
  17. Our best troll was a West to East. We tried to keep the speed around 2.7. We did not have a sub-troll, so we could not tell what the temperature was at depths.
  18. While cleaning our fish today, the steelhead had two different colors of meat. Is there a way to tell the difference between a steelhead and a skamania by the color of the meat? Or is this caused by a lack of proper nutrients?
  19. I went out of Saugatuck with DIRTY DOG and fishinmachine today. Walt did not join us, he had to work today We ended up with 1 brown trout(4 lbs), 1 chinook, and 3 steelhead( biggest one tipped the scale at 12 lbs). DIRTY DOG and fishinmachine fishinmachine with his 12lb steelie. The steelhead bite has slowed way down from what it was last week and the week before The lake has warmed up fast We were greeted at the pier heads with 72 degree water. At 100 fow it was 66 degrees, and at 160 fow it was 60 degrees. We fished setting lines at 6:30am. All of our fish came from the surface down to 55' in 120 fow - 150 fow. There was no particular lure that was hot for us. Everything we caught fish on had orange in color. Our first fish(chinook) was on a half core. I am not sure how long we dragged it around before we relized we had a fish on. Our next fish was the brown trout. Then we trolled around for 3 hours without another bite. Our next fish was a steelhead that came in 150 fow and I do not remember what depth or what we caught it on. Our next steelhead came on a fixed slider on a rigger set at 60. The last steelhead(12 lbs) came on a high line with an orange and gold thin fin. We pulled lines and headed in at 3:15pm. Only two of the fish had food in their bellies. The 12lb Steelie, which came on a high line, had an 8" perch and 4 or 5 alewives in it. The steelhead we caught at 60' only had beatles and bugs in its belly. It was a GREAT day on the lake. To bad the fishing was not better than what it was. Thanks for the trip DIRTY DOG and fishingmachine.
  20. One gallon of alternative fuel takes three gallons to make CHAMPAIGN, Ill. | The proposal for a 100 million gallon-per-year ethanol plant is just one of many that have popped up in the past several months across Illinois, which already has seven operating plants and is the nation's No. 2 ethanol producer. High oil prices and support from Washington have inspired such interest in the corn-based gasoline additive that the Illinois Corn Growers Association now says at least 30 plants are in various stages of planning across the state. All will use a lot of water. It takes about three gallons of water to produce each gallon of ethanol, according to the Renewable Fuels Association. So a plant that produces 100 million gallons of ethanol each year will go through 300 million gallons of water for processing the product and cooling equipment. http://nwitimes.com/articles/2006/06/19/news/top_news/4158d9d4ac5f89b68625719200009ba8.txt
  21. On Minnesota's beloved vacation spot, change is coming fast. On the northeast tip of Minnesota is a coastline of uncommon beauty, lined by sheer basalt cliffs, cobblestone beaches and the mouths of dozens of rivers rushing into Lake Superior through narrow, winding gorges. This is where Minnesotans go to breathe. Since 1924, when the first highway opened, the North Shore has been a refuge for city folk tired of congestion, for farmers tired of flat fields, for blue-collar workers tired of the grind. It didn't cost much to come up for a week, rent a little cabin and breathe deeply of air laced with the fragrance of cedar, pine and freshwater waves. http://www.twincities.com/mld/twincities/living/travel/14827859.htm
  22. CLEVELAND - A commercial fisherman turned informant who helped investigators nab others stealing tons of yellow perch from Lake Erie has left the business amid harassment from his former colleagues, a state wildlife official said. Kevin Ramsey, head of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources' enforcement unit in Sandusky, said other commercial fishermen are lashing out at Ed Szuch Jr. The two-year investigation led to charges against 14 fishermen and five companies accused of netting and selling 40 tons of yellow perch, with an estimated value of nearly $1 million, in excess of quotas in 2002 and 2003. "It's pretty sad," Ramsey said. "They make the honest guys out to be the bad guys, and they don't think they did anything wrong." Read the whole story here.
  23. The Ontario government has quietly reneged on a national commitment to reduce the level of mercury in air pollution, the Toronto Star has learned. Sources say the Liberal government's recent decision to break a 2003 cornerstone campaign promise and keep open the province's pollution-spewing coal-fired generating plants well past 2009 is behind the policy U-turn. Canada's federal, provincial and territorial environment ministers were poised last Friday to announce a reduction in the highly toxic mercury emissions by 50 per cent from 2003-04 levels by 2010. Read the whole story here.
  24. There is a charter boat in Ludington named Summer Breeze. http://www.greatlakesfisherman.com/links/showlink.php?do=showdetails&l=2&catid=11
