btw how did anybody do bass fishing the other day? Just curious. I hear stories about how you go out and catch 5 lbers untill your arms get tired, but personally I have had to work for them. (last year anyway, no bass fishing yet this year) I watched that show, city limits fishing last year and a guide from buffalo took the host of the show out fishing in erie, launched from erie basin marina. Their goal was to catch 10 keepers total. The guide was bragging that they might be done in an hour, but it ended up taking them 8 hours to catch 10 bass over 12 inches. ( that's 5 fish each, but they did come in for lunch and ate wings). They fished in august if I remember correctly.

My guess is that before the gobies infested erie the bass were a lot easier to catch. More of them and smaller?
