All fishermen are liars... Except on Walleye.com

to all that like to rip me down thats fine, its your choice to believe or not believe, you must understand sometimes clients don't want thier cathes shown and we have to respect this, as well as sometimes we get numbers that can't be let out, and we have to respect this,. As for picture you can check out reel sport charters llc and you will see the big and the small of 2014 from spring to winter. As to why some are catching fish and alot are not, like I said before go small ,smaller and slow and old school ways. Yes Iam old school and not the best report writer in town,
as you pick me apart. All I am trying to due is give the best report I can with as much information as I can, like this forum is about, I am in no way trying to promote our business. Yes I do everything different than everyone else, but this is who I am. The ones who know us know we do everything in our power to please everyone. This my option, Sorry if I ruffel some feathers.

Thanks Big Wayne

Wayne, no name has mentioned you or anyone else's name. In fact, there was an example given about a 300lb cooler story which wasn't you.

Everything in here has simply been about people posting dishonest reports and false results simply to try make themselves look better than the next guy. Almost everything in this topic has been about a character an honesty issue, and specific examples given where not details about your reports.

Everyone has been talking about false reports being given when everyone knows they are false and how that effects users who don't know who to trust.

If you took these posts personally then it is simply because you choose too, not because anyone has mentioned you or anyone else's names.

Hey Wayne/Mike I wasn't specifically talking about you. Neither was anyone else. Nobody called you or mike out on anything just letting people know to be careful on who people trust on info. But with you jumping to conclusions like that sure makes it look like you have a guilty Conscience good luck to everyone on the ice I'm not a ice guide and do not have any future plans to be one. Not even out on the ice man good luck and be safe!

I believe there is a simple solution. BE HONEST!!! Show pictures of the fish you claim to catch!! Don't give false reports and put people in harms way on the ice. Many of you on this site are friends of mine and i don't want anyone hurt so someone can make a few bucks. So show the pictures of all these fish. (I have never had a client tell me not to take pictures.. sounds a little fishy)

While on this topic I must also say something on perch. I always see from the same people jumbos jumbos jumbos.... not we have a good grade of fish being 8s 9s and 10s. Let's be realistic your not going out around kelleys or anywhere in the western basin for that matter and getting 6 and 8 man limits of jumbos. Your getting a decent grade with some jumbos mixed in. Don't get me wrong I've fished Huron and vermilion a lot for perch and you can get a lot of jumbos but a whole limit? ? Not happening very often let alone every trip. The "person people" that report like this know who are. Be very aware of "the jumbo perch report"

[loomis82]

And you're right skipper all the years I've first mated never had I have a customer say no to a photo.

[Bggeary]

You guys crack me up! COME ON SPRING!

[gregnwtf]

I get that sometimes. I ask them if they want a pic, limit or not. Loomis guy, if you want to try the limits of jumbo perch in the cooler. Call me next fall for a trip over the line up north. Some people consider jumbos 10 inchers. 12 or bigger are the jumbo class getting 2 to the pound or less. Last trip up last fall , 2 guys on the boat and 60 fish weighed in 46 pounds of perch live weight. Hate drama. Wine and Walleye Fest winner 2014 in Ashtabula was Summer Break 2 in the second pic of 152 inches on I believe 5 fish. So if I didnt post a picture, hmm. So who had the 300 cooler Erik? I guess I also do things different as well Wayne. People shouldnt be argueing on here, you should feel as we would help one another in an emergency or in finding fish.

Wow Greg.. no I don't need a charter. And also did I refer to you? ? No. . I also know Canada. Sheridan point, the wheel colchester... these are no secret spots. I'm not saying these are your spots but I'd be willing to bet they aren't far from it. And yes two guys could sit out there a lot of times all day and get a limit of ten inches with sorting. Never did I question your fishing skills. I'm just saying to the people that have said limit of jumbos after limit of jumbos with six or eight people its bs. Not one day was it a smaller grade??? And don't get me wrong yes you can get a limit of jumbos.hell about 5 years ago 6 of us limited out around the toledo lighthouse with two to the pound. Does it happen often no way. Does it happen more in Canadian waters yes. .. every trip not happening. Good luck in 2015 and be safe

Sounds like a little stir crazy out there as I watch this thread...!
I myself dont post alot of pics nor take them. I dont even advertise online, word of mouth and referrals are the best!!! I usually send the customers off to do their thing as I like to clean my boat for the next outing....Usually the customers take care of their pics as they wish or we will if they ask. I take them on fishing trips not photo shoots...lol, some times heck/ lots of times not full coolers -BUT I have heard, DAMN thats the biggest fish ive seen or caught! (on quite a few trips) An for reports...everyone has there special spots, most the time a pack of boats, time of year and water temps can lead you in the right general areas to get rolling...and most reports on walleye.com are legit I believe. After a couple years of floating around you can tell whos boats are whos, and If i hear POW!!!...one more time im gonna sew erics and djs lips shut....lol
Only got 6 eyes today, north of cans, .8-1.2 with sledge hammers on bow, pulling heated 40 tt & frozen meat on half and warm wiggly 800rr's, colors ice cold panties, burr blue ice, and purple fingers worked well - joking / false report so dont try it!

55 days to go or so...- hopefully this post keeps going so I have something to amuse me for next couple weeks
