Just like the druggies, their usage has increased because Narcan is freely handed out ! No wonder people do so many crazy things, the gov't rewards them for doing so ! My children and grandchildren are all first responders, watching them go into dangerous situations because of peoples stupidity is awfull. We have lost family members, from peoples poor decisions. Hope it doesn't hit home for any of you.

For those of us not on Facebook, did Porkchop say where he got those walleyes, or his method?

I thought I was the only one not on Facebook. God bless us. LOL

I believe he was trolling. He did not give a location.

This was the caption from picture, "What a toad!! 50" pig outta Catawba! Pry close to the state record. It was released!!" Might contain a clue?

Erie is still around 30% or more ice covered. 90% of the ice was pushed down to the easten end as of March 10 (Modis satellite). ENE wind today will probably push some of it as far back west as the Western Basin. Big area of ice between South Bass Island and Rattlesnake Island finally broke out and is mostly gone. Looks like it went to Canadian shoreline off Point Peele. There are visible flows out in the Western Basin, and I'm sure lots of pieces here and there.

Wind forecast through next weekend (March 21-23) is almost nothing but high winds. Thursday Friday this week ok. After that - forget it. We'll see if forecast holds up. If so, you have two weekends to get those "honey do" projects done and get the equipment / boat ready. Or, hit the Maumee or Sandusky rivers if you need a few hours outside to ward off the "cabin fever" most of us get in March.

Looking at satellite pic from yesterday and today.Ice is gone as far as big pieces around the islands.I know Huron ramp open but not sure if Catawba ramp open yet.Should be busy tomorrow with warm weather and fishable winds.Good luck to all getting out fishing.

Saturday wind is forecast from the S SE. 23-27mph with... up to 54mph gusts. Don't think it's reasonable to go out in that, especially with the water temperature at Marblehead being 38.1 degrees. Even if you only go out a quarter to half mile. But yes, I know, there will be some who can't resist.

My charter buddy launched his boat yesterday.So thats the last of the ice in the Marina's and the ponds here in Cleveland are ice free too.
