(OH) Vinsanity

Board of Directors, I am writing to notify you of my resignation as the Ohio State Chair effective 1/1/2019. At the end of the year I will have fulfilled my 2 year commitment. We are currently looking for a new state chair and have narrowed the list down to two people. You should expect their letters of intent in the near future. Thanks Vince Shiflet

Date/Time 11/2 7am - 11/4 12pm Location: 30 Main St, Huron, OH 44839 The Over 30 Challenge will occur during this fish-in. See: Details: A 6 foot net handle can be used to net fish but something longer will make it easier. Releasing the fish with a sling and 2 dog leash clips attached to a rope is a good idea, but not absolutely necessary. I will have mine so anyone fishing around me is welcome to use. Many big fish have been caught at this venue. Countless 20's and even a couple over 30. Bring plenty of bait and when you think you have enough, bring more. There

As posted earlier, the Rayland fish-in was moved to Urbana. I arrived Friday around 830am and John showed a little bit thereafter. He managed the first fish within 20 minutes of being in the water which was very surprising. The next fish didn't come for another 4 hours. A few more hit the bank until nightfall and that's when the catch rate was pretty consistent. John and I managed 6-8 fish during the night, but nothing of any size. I woke up around 8am Saturday morning to see Bobby setup down the bank. Sleeping in an overwrapped bivvy didn't exactly let much light in which was nice f

Sounds good man.

That's awesome man! We fished it in June as well. Funny enough... Bob was asking about you over the weekend.

Rayland Marina on the Ohio River. A great place for numbers and the occasional surprise. We've have a few flatheads up to 30lbs and even a 20+lb Grass Carp. $10 dollars per tent per night. Directions: https://goo.gl/maps/kx4XSbcHQjq Fires are permitted so bring wood if you want to stay warm. You can pull right up to the river as long as there hasn't been a ton of rain. If it has been raining you will have to walk from the parking lot. See everyone there

We had a really great turnout this past weekend on the Huron River. The weather couldn't have been much better and the fishing was pretty good too. Over a dozen people came out and we even had a special visit from Bob Bernowski and the girls! Everyone got in the action whether it was Carp or Buffalo. The biggest Carp was just over 20 pounds and there were 4 or 5 Buffalo over the 20 pound mark as well. Lots of smaller fish were thrown into the mix so it turned into a numbers game to get something worth weighing. It was really good to see such a well attended event! Thanks to everyo

Had a great time at Cowan this weekend. Loads of fish were caught during the night bite with an occasional take during the day. Average size was probably around 15lbs with the biggest being 24+ caught by John Mayer. I believe there were 6+ 20's caught between all of us and a couple bruiser size Channel Cats. (It was definitely the biggest Channel I've ever caught.) The weather was pretty good almost all weekend even with the little bit of rain we got on Saturday morning. We didn't go hungry during this fish-in. Burgers, sausages, hot dogs, pasta salad, chips, cookies, etc etc kept us

Due to high grass in the designated fish-in area, it has been moved to Cowan Lake. https://www.google.com/maps/place/Unnamed+Road,+Wilmington,+OH+45177/@39.3814291,-83.8903657,18z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m13!1m7!3m6!1s0x8840c3ca781ba931:0x6072d48d208f4e3c!2sCowan+Lake!3b1!8m2!3d39.3864372!4d-83.902951!3m4!1s0x8840c3b330e66ceb:0xf4de39fc2fe9e4ea!8m2!3d39.381427!4d-83.8892714

Venue: Jackson City Reservoir (Hammertown Lake) Date/Time: Aug 17 at 7 AM to Aug 19 at 12 PM Directions: https://www.google.com/maps/dir//39.051188,-82.68411/@39.0518567,-82.6868307,1048m/data=!3m1!1e3 We had a break in July but now it's time to get back on the bank. Hammertown Lake is a new venue for CAG Ohio so I hope to have a good turnout. Bobby Oney is fairly experienced on this lake and has caught fish just shy of 20lbs. If we get a number of anglers fishing for a weekend there is a good possibility to break that 20lb mark. No one has done an overnighter

Plenty of fish were caught over the weekend at Huron. I arrived on Friday morning at 7am, but cut my trip short on Saturday evening. Friday was pretty much exhausting for me as I never really got much time to sit down and relax. Between catching, baiting, and talking to people, I was wore out. I'd guess there were easily over 150 fish caught from Friday morning until Sunday at noon. It's one of those places where you can't put in enough bait. I even tried to be selective with the size of fish, but that didn't work. Big bait, big fish? Nope! I did a 5 stack of Trilogy King Korn and even th
