You do one heck of a job posting and helping others find fish. Please don't stop posting your comments and reports as they are valuable and helpful to other members. I personally want to thank you for your efforts on this subject as I truely believe you go that extra mile for the members of this forum.
I will hopefully get to start posting soon if and when I get my boat issues settled. I replaced my engine and have ran into a few tech problems as well as the weather, which has not been conductive to boat repairs outside. I hope to be ready to launch in the next couple of weeks if the weather holds. If so I will be posting my results good or bad, such as location, speed, program and of course number of fish caught.

I went out sat about a mile east of Turtle Isl. fished for about 2 hrs with Blade baits didn't do any good. Water was total mud and waves about 3 to 4 out of south east. The 14Th and 15Th of April and Easter Sunday we tore them up using Blade Baits. We need some stable weather conditions for about 3 to 4 days no wind and no rain and I think they will turn on again.

Look at the views at any old fishing report on here, most over 1000+views, then look at any given time and a few members signed on. So that tells me that at least 80% of the traffic looking at your reports are lurkers, i guess with nothing to share. I feel blessed to live so close to the lake, and able to usually fish at least 3 times a week. I have a great group of guys that i share detailed info with, that ive met on this site and other fishing sites thru pm's. I post reports here and there with general info only, anything detailed is pm only for that reason. I have no problem sharing info with any member thru a pm,but im not gonna post detailed info for a 1000+lurkers to view who feel no need to contribute.

I understand what you are saying but here's my situation. I work a lot of hours and finally made it out for the first time this year and I did post my results - not so good. However, I sit at my computer all day at work with this site and a couple others open looking for some good news and wishing I had a fishing report to post. Sure many of those fishing reports have a 1000+ views but i'm probably responsible for at least 100+ views on every one of them.
THANK YOU to all those that fish and post their reports. Us overworked, underpaid minions greatly appreciate it. I'm taking a half day Tuesday and going to try it in the afternoon - if things stay calm at work. I will post a report if i make it.
Thanks again for all the quality reports on here.

Thank you for all the info. I am from the other end of the lake (Buffalo area). Our season opens Sat. and to tell you the truth we only got rid of the ice a few weeks ago. I envy your end of the lake - you are able to get out so much earlier than us. Most of our marinas and launch sites don't open until May 15th. I usually post on the eastern end but there are not many that contribute also. Right now our lake temperature is 39 deg. I enjoy reading about the success or lack of success that you are having. It keeps me looking forward to the great fishing days ahead.
