FYI to all. We will be shutting down all sales except for the track tools effective April 1st. We still have some inventory of TinMans favorite, and Brite and shinny. If any of you have some needs for some track or switches (O22) please let me know via tinman@tinman3rail.com. We will be returning to Wisconsin where we will be rebuilding inventory, and most important chasing the elusive Lake Trout and Coho. In our spare time, we will be rewriting our web site to accommodate a lot of great information gained from this forum, and in some cases from some of you via personal contact. We expect to reopen everything around mid September.

 

I cannot tell you all how grateful I am for the support and help you all have been to us getting started. It has been quite the ride. In the mean time for the rest of the month we still would love to purchase any excess track you guys may want to dispose of. Feel free to give me a call if you wish to discuss in person. 262-914-0057....Rich

Rich,

When most of us welcomed you as a new forum sponsor and magazine advertiser. We welcomed you on board and asked that you hang on, due to the possibility of a wild ride.    And you doubted our word?      ROTFLMAO!  

Rich, if there are any walleye in that lake, and you drift fish for them, use a lure called an erie-deerie, tipped with a night crawler.  If you can't find the lure, let me know, and I'll send you some.  I formally used this lure and caught bunches of good eaten' walleye in good old Lake Erie.  The lure had nothing to do with the lake.  They just shared a name.  Bob S.

Well a summer "off" for finding fish & stock, should be in every business plan.
A blessing in disguise I hope.  
 Walleye like the cold, are often on the bottom. They like low light of dawn and dusk to creep into shallows to feed, then hang on the outskirts nibbling all night. And they come up in schools to feed in turbulent, choppy water, on overcast days. Heavier on the eastern Great Lakes. But walleye are everywhere. When, where, & how are the real key.
At a lot of store & restaurants, "Walleye" is really Zander.
Most cant even tell under the beer batter.

Hi Bob, nope no walleye here. I think it is too deep and too cold for them. Love that Lake Erie fishing, but it sure can get awful rough awful fast!

 Nothing like bouncing off the bottom of Erie in a storm! Bang bang bang bang!

(If your good & lucky, you can beach yourself in the sandy shallows)

Wood boats float too (thank you God).

 

I'm not a fan of "white" fish, they kinda taste the same . Too light, so mostly catch and release for me.

 But mmm..boy! I can eat a plate full of salmon on rice though .
