We did the drifts with roe bags looking for salmon for most of the morning. Didn't get anything. So we ran to the lake and tried the Niagara Bar. Tried everything. Only managed one smallie. It was a nice one. It was a nice day with a good friend. Cheers!

Sounds like you had a good day on the water even though the fish were not co-operating. I'm going to miss our lower Niagara fishing trip this year as we have decided to go back to the Thousand Islands instead for my birthday weekend. We are going to try and chase down some big muskies but always have our spots for pike, perch and bass if we can't find any. Only two weeks left now, I just have to get rid of this stupid cold.

Looks like you have a Legend like we do and yes, we do appreciate the full windshield as well as well as the bimini top with windshield. Makes spring and fall fishing a bit more enjoyable.

The top is awesome especially when it's raining. Keeps me out fishing when everyone else is on shore,or soaked! Lol Cheers!

I usually have the boat all done by November but with my shortened summer I'm going to go right till the end. Hope to have everything line up down there at least one day before I'm done. Lol Cheers!
