To my dismay apparently you can’t fish catch and release before bass season opens there. Very disappointed. 6 hours ago, Thorny said: This would be incredible and make me incredibly happy and I'm probably the biggest anti-trade Eichel guy there is around here. Crosby as a Sabre is something I've thought about since we came close to winning that lottery for him, for some reason have always thought it possible one day. It won't happen but sign me up That's assuming we are dealing Eichel, again I’m still salty about him scoring that gold winning goal against Miller in 2010. No thanks.

The reason they don’t want you targeting bass right now is they are on their spawning beds and gobies rob the nests of eggs and fry when you pull a bass off its nest. There is some amazing youtube footage out there of bass getting removed from a nest and gobies swarming in immediately to feed on the eggs and spawn. Fortunately the walleye fishing in that area is pretty good right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike sutton Posted June 14, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2021 Sorry all- got to get into this blog thing better next time. Yes Brador was the greatest beer ever made (malt- unbelievably good). I'll never drink Coors because they no nothing (John Snow) about beer and stopped making it as soon as taking out Molson's. Damn I miss it (still have 5 left in the fridge but after this many years...still better than anything). Yes pulp towns have a stank but yes you get into it if you live there (thankfully, I've never had to). Yes the thread is about trades- but mainly not the starting over crap with years of accumulated draft picks (hasn't worked for Edmonton or Buffalo). Time to look at what the Islanders have done with the best management you can get (i.e. Lou). A few key trades can get us there. Besides the Eichel for a 2-way tough leader idea, I'd really like to see Sam Reinhart, who I think is more a set-up man than a scorer, teamed back up with a tough, go-to-the-front-of-the-net guy like in the gold medal-winning juniors with Domi. O'Reilly was good with him and if he saw someone like that, plus a Tkachuk, plus a guy for the 1st round pick like Blake Wheeler, plus picking up a free agent like Blake Coleman, then now we're talking- and maybe he'd want to stay. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a crazy ass great sound system and tons of music, and I was n encyclopedia of Bills and Sabres. We had fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Weave Mentioned, the Gobies are everywhere in the damn river and can completely obliterate a SmallMouth Spawn Nest in less than 5 minutes. It does suck though because the fishing up there is a lot of fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
