You wont regret it!! Tight Lines,Capt Dana

JUNE01 Well this is our last week in Wilson . Time to go back to Lake Erie and fish for the Walleyes.Me and Capt Steve will miss the big o and the salmon but we will be back in the fall God willing.It has been a great spring and I always hate to leave,but those walleye are waiting for us. Last week was a great week however we lost our weekend do to bad weather.all is well though everyone is re booked and we wil get them out this week if weather permits.I will post some pics of last weeks adventures. Keep it wet,Capt Dana
JUNE09 Its been a reel fun season up in wilson .We met a lot of nice people and caught alot of nice fish!! I want to thank everyone for coming up to Lake Ontario and all of the great people of Wilson for having us.
The last trip up here was very memorable ,we had some firsts of the year.We boated 2 Atlantic Salmon, and a 26 lb Lake trout!!Billy (pic above ) caught his first Salmon and I think he might be hooked.Excuse the pun.
The MOJO is heading for Lake Erie now to catch the Walleyes and I hope to see you all there.Give me a call because its a short summer and the book is filling fast!!Again thanks everyone!!
Good Luck! and Good Fishing, Capt Dana
JUNE25 Sorry its been a while ,Its a lot of work changing lakes ,getting ready and of course getting out there on the fish!! Walleye fishing started out slow this June due to cooler water temps in Lake Erie but with the warm days as of lately its coming around just fine .Im having fresh walleye for dinner tonight!Come on out the water is fine and theres plenty of toothy critters for you to catch and have for supper too!MMMMMM good!
Tight lines ,Capt Dana
JUNE25 Its time !! The waters of Lake Erie have warmed and the yellows are here!! We have had some very good catches this week and I expect them to stay as good or better .One great thing I have noticed is that we are catching a few under sized walleye telling me that there was another good hatch in 07 and that Lake Erie is healthy and sustaining a good walleye population. That is awesome news for all of us fishing fanatics!!
The water is great come on down , take a trip aboard the MOJO and make some memories!!Not to mention a few fish fries!! Hope to see you soon ,Capt Dana
JULY8 We are into July and the Walleye fishing is just getting better and better!!Last week produced some wonderful catches! We had some great people aboard the MOJOand a lot of fish.Hope you all had a spectacular Independance day ,I know we did!!Special thanks to the Gregson family,the boys are great kids and did very well with rod handeling ,dispite the wheather it was a very good day .
Fishin is hot. Come on out!!!, Capt Dana
JULY18 Fishing last week was not what I expected ,This low pressure pattern has affected the bite as well as our summer.We are still catching fish but it has not progresed as well as expected . The weather man has a better forcast in store for us this week and monday we had a pretty good catch so Im hoping that the best is yet to come!!Ill keep you posted. Stay dry, Capt Dana
JULY28 Well ,if your a local I dont have to tell you how bad the summer has been here in WNY.If your not I can only tell you that it has been the coldest July on record since the 1800,s.This has definetly affected the walleye fishing as the water temps have gone down instead of up.I have had to postpone or cut short a few trips in the past two weeks but we have also had a couple of good ones when we do get out.Lake Erie is providing a good "mixed bag"including Walleye,Lake trout,brown trout,Steelhead,and perch. This makes for a pretty good day of fishing but as I said we are are used to a lot better numbers on the Walleye . I am still optomistic though .The temps have been in the 80,s and all we need is a little high pressure and things will be a lot better.
Monday we did very well ,the Myles boys had the boat and we caught a lot of fish including a lunker Walleye and a very respectable steelhead{over 10 lbs}.Of course ,they both were on the line at the same time!!we got em though.The board would have been full but the boys are good sportsmen and we released a lot of lake trout.If we all only take what we eat it makes for a much better fishery.Good job men.
thats all for now It can only get better! See you soon ,Capt Dana
AUG 5 We are now into August and the Walleye fishery still is not up to par, at least by MOJO standards. We are getting a few but not the expected numbers. Monday the surface temp ws 72 so things shuold be better any day.The Lake trout fishing is spectacular ! We have world class lakers and lots of them but eat your weaties because they are monsters!! If you are looking for a trophy 25 lbs and over for your wall come on out !You wont find a fishery like this anywhere else in the world.Ill keep you updated on the Walleye .
till then, Good fishin,Capt Dana
AUG 28 Sorry about the lack of info folks .To start out the walleyes are finally here! I was away on a trip to Alaska for a while but before I left we had a couple of great catches .have recieved many good reports from reliable sourses that it is still good and we should expect good fishing hopfully through sept. got out fri for a little while, then the lake kicked up hard.we got um till then. Dave Todoro and crew had a great catch on the MOJO ,Ill post a few pics .If you plan on going out, now is the time give us a call!! Again sorry for the absentism but all I can say is that Alaska fishing is unbelievable!!!!!!
wont leave you hanging again till the end of the season,Capt Dana
Sept 05 the fishing is still pretty good .Last week we had some good catches .Mike McAnn and crew did over a dozen walleyes and some steelhead. Water temps are still up but below normal .I expect a couple more wks of decent fishing. Book now cause its almost over .Deer season is just around the corner!
hope to see you soon ,Capt Dana
SEPT28First and foremost I would like to thank everyone for a good year. Hope to see you all again next season!
Although the summer almost was non existant we still managed to have a lot of fun and memerable trips.We are winding down and getting ready to pull the MOJO out for the winter.She will be ready for the spring and the salmon up in Wilson(cant wait).Ill be at the sportsman show in hamburg NY. so watch for us there. Thanks again!!
Keep warm and good luck hunting,Capt Dana
