Nice to see that you made it on here spanky. So did you go fishing this weekend anywheres. Caznik

Thanks guys, I dind't think about a tig welder. Maybe I will check with a friend that I know that works with steel and see if he can tig weld it for me. If not I will try JB weld and see if that will work. Thanks guys for all your info, Rich

Hello GLF members, I have a 14' fishing boat that I like to fish in the rivers and on inland lakes. Well the past 5 times that I had been fishing in my small boat there has been alot of water run in my boat latley. So Saturday I thought I try and find where that water leak is at. Well I found it and it is a nasty crack that is about 3" long and is in the front of my boat. What is the best stuff to try and fix this leak. I been thinking about trying JB weld or some kind of gas tank leak stuff. Can someone help me out here, I like to get this leak fixed and not buy another small boat. Thank you, Rich

Hey Bucknut, So tell me how did you get that name for you on here. Well just thought id say hello and good luck fishing this year. If you need any kind of help let me know. Caznik

Welcome to the site Rockfish, if you need any help let me know. Keep up the good fishing, Caznik

Hastings, Michigan

Fishing Times: 7:00am-12:00pm River Conditions: Water level was perfect and not muddy. Fish: 1 Sucker Lures: Small Gold and Red lip hot n tot. Well took another trip down to the Kalamozoo river to try and get some more steelheads. We started this time from the bridge and started the long troll to the dam. Well looks like we didn't get any hits or anything to do with a steelhead this morning. My buddy from work took a nice 4lb. sucker with his hot n tot and that was all we had. Looks like it maybe the last trip over there for this spring. The weather looks like it is going to start to get warmer by next weekend and Im thinking about trying and get some bluegills or crappies at my dads lake. Hope you all had a chance to get out and enjoy this nice weather this weekend. Caznik

You guys like to see what is in my back yard every morning and evening everyday. I have 40 turkey's come in every morning and wake me up on the weekends because they gobble so loud next to my bedroom. I also have 2 bearded hend that come in my yard every year. Well here they are. There are 6 big toms with the rest all hens that will show up everyday. Caznik

You guys forgot one big thing when you back your boat down to the ramps. Turn off your headlights so other fishermen can see when they back there boats down. I allways turn my headlights off and leave my running lights on. Man you just cannot see nothing when trying to back your boat down when another truck has there headlights on. Caznik

Fishing Times: 6:00am-12:00pm River Conditions: Water level was perfect and not muddy. Fish: 2 Walleyes and 3 Suckers Lures: Small Gold and Red lip hot n tot, Chrome hotn tot and a Yellow hot n tot. Took another trip to the river this morning and not much happened with the steelheads. I went fishing with Sarah C and Benny this morning. We started at the bridge again and went down stream a long ways. Sarah C caught 2 nice suckers with a chrome hot n tot. Benny caught 2 nice walleyes and one walleye was 8lbs. I didn't do so good this moring, I happen to catch a nice sucker also with my yellow hot n tot. I don't know what the deal is with the steelheads, they just was not hitting this morning. Looks like I will be going to St Joe tomarrow morning and fish for some coho's or browns. Benny's 8 Lb. Walleye Good luck fishing, Caznik We did throw all the fish back in the river.

Mike, It has been me that has been checking on this info about the light houses and the fog horns with the coast gaurd. I been talking with the coast guard to be a member on the web site to give us some help on some of these ?'s on some of these threads on here and looks like there is a member of the coast gaurd that did sign up as a member here.(mainly this one) I think that will help us out on some ?'s on the great lakes. Well I just got an email from the coast guard and this is what they had told me. Thank you for contacting the Coast Guard Navigation Center. We sent your inquiry to the Ninth District Aids to Navigation Office and this is the reply we received: "We have proposed to shut off a couple of lights, which are open for public comment at this time. The only lighthouse that has been turned off recently is Sturgeon Point Light. Most of our proposals however, are to reduce the visual range of the light to make better use of modern technologies. For the fog signals, we have no intent to shut off any at this time. We are changing many fog horns to a radio remote controlled activation device. This is the same type of receiver used at many small airports to turn on runway lights. The fog horn is turned on by keying the a vhf-fm microphone on a designated frequency 5 times Well Mike I hope this answer will help everyone out here. If anyone has any ?'s you might want to talk with Great Lake CG he is a member on this web site. Good fishing this weekend, Caznik

Nice going and thanks for the report Rick. See ya Saturday, Rich

Steve, Yes I know there is some really good spots up there by the dam. But so far I have not yet tried to fish up there yet. I will probly start up there next weekend. I bet it was really crowded up there this week. There was 5 boats below the bridge and all covered the hot spots. Rich

Fishing Times: 6:00am-12:00pm River Conditions: Water level was perfect and not muddy. Fish: 2 Walleyes and 1 Small mouth Lures: Small Yellow Hot N Tot Well today I thought Id keep on trying the river once again. We started at the bridge and motored down stream a long ways. We turned the boat around and started to troll back to the bridge. About 10 minutes later I hooked on a nice 18" walleye with my yellow hot n tot. Then about 2 hours later my buddy hooked on a really nice 4 pound small mouth. Then after another 2 hours later I happen to get another 18" walleye on the same yellow lure. We tried pretty hard to get a steelhead but they just didn't seem to want to bite for us today. We met up with about 5 others boats that was down from the bridge and out of 5 boats there was 2 steelheads caught. Oh ya we did let all our good eating fish go.

That will really suck on foggy days if you happen to get into the fog coming back in. Last year at Frankfort I happen to get caught in the fog coming back to shore. I used my GPS unit and when I happen to get close to the pier heads I was saved by the fog horn. That fog horn really helps out. Caznik
