Mike's Wife told me that this was his last Fishing trip but he's at the BILLS game today - hope she dosn't go into labor 😜 Awesome to see # 3 Damar Hamlin recovering - watching his team take on the Pats today - GO BILLS
What a day! Great start to the new year guys. All chrome fresh fish at the concrete wall pool. Great water conditions make it ideal for good fishing. Prayers for Damar, I’m glad the good Lord has helped him get better and improving day by day. Watching the pre game right now and gives me chills seeing all the support from fans. Go Bills!
Awesome steelhead action thanks for sharing! Congrats on the first steelhead of 2023! That was an incredible battle - so many close calls... great job showing enough patience to stick with that fish and not rush it! Tight lines my friend! Captain Zac
Had another great day on the water sad to hear Mike won’t be fishing to much for awhile but family is very important and as as I always say the fish are always in the water somewhere.Have a blessed 2023 .Go Bills Go Hamlin 🙏
Sorry you lost the big one at the end but it still looked like a pretty good day! Glad to see you all are safe after the weather up there on Christmas. Tight lines in 2023!
Lake O. Tribs are seeing more and more steelhead. I've caught a few monsters. 15# range. I'm also getting a ton of Browns. But I also fish 2-3days a week. So I put the time in. This unseasonably mild weather is doing beautiful things for this fishing season and I'm taking full advantage. Keep the videos coming. I watch all of em. I've even dialed in in some of your spots. So when I decide to go to Erie tribs some day, I know where to look. Lol. My son is 18yrs old and Absolutely refuses to do any fishing of any sort. I'm jealous that you and your son share the same passion. If my son had gotten into it, him and I would be doing the same. Happy New year. Thanks for sharing your content.
Great show, Bill. Congrats to Mike on upcoming #3 kiddo, and of course for all the beautiful fish he caught. You (and the Bills) are on fire. I had to wear sunglasses due to all the sun reflecting off that chrome! Also good to see the warmer weather melted a lot of that snow. Happy 2023, Don
And that was a fine day. Missed you guys last two weeks. I hate being 6 hours away from the fun. Great video as usual Bill. Great stuff God bless the new year and a New Grand Kid!!
Great day Bill! Steady action and no skunkin for you or Mike. Good news about Mike's 3rd kid on the way and that Hamlin is recovering nicely. And the Bills are looking great!
Don't stop fishing because you have another kid. Just bring them with ya .lol Where there is water there is a fisherman. Great video guys. We should start a go fund Mike to keep him fishing hehe. Cheers from On the other side of Lake Erie in Canada.
Great job as always guys! Mike? You'll fish again: Bring your children along to carry Grandpa's gear! (That's what I'm gonna have my grandkids do!). Tightest of lines you guys and no skunkin'...prayers for #3... Frank
Try fishing anything connected to Lake Ontario or Lake Erie. The Lower Niagara is a great accessible spot if you are willing to walk around. Then you can always look up on the Dec website where to go.
@@BillMikesAnglingAdventures it doesn't really matter all the tribs are packed even on weekdays now. Used to fish that creek to escape the crowds. Never more than one car in the lot. Went down the other day and couldn't even get a parking spot. Drove upstream and all the pull offs were packed and all of the spots i used to fish are now posted. Nothing is sacred anymore.
had to take a break from fishing this weekend - had another Christmas dinner to do - finally caught up.
bet everyone was crushing them today 🎣
Glad to see you guys still out at it!
thanks man 🎣✌
Once again thanks for taking us along. All the best in 2023 & tight lines...
thanks man ✌ tight lines

thanks man 👍 sounds like a plan
I'm ready to hit the Creeks with you
we got to get out Pete 👍🎣
Dude !!!!!
✌😲
Drink, every time he says big, lol.
😜👍
He backs it up…. On the first one, I was waiting for, “We’re gonna need a BIGGER boat”. 😮
Very exciting 😁 Thanks for your videos!
We're do you catch steelhead I can't find any
all over - everyones catching them🎣
Depends where you live.Check out "Steelhead Alley"online. Creeks are listed.
Try fishing anything connected to Lake Ontario or Lake Erie. The Lower Niagara is a great accessible spot if you are willing to walk around. Then you can always look up on the Dec website where to go.
Still surprising me the size we are pulling out of those tribs this year figured like usual big ones early then the cookie cutters only to spring.
the fish are running a bit bigger for sure
the gill plates that was messed up. do you guys have Otters up on that stream??we have them in my area.
dont think i ever ran across an otter rond here
Hey Mike and bill what gram floats are you using? Are them raven floats also?
yed raven floats - mostly go with 7.5 gram and sometimes 9
Thanks for the response!
Where at in western New York, I like fishing at dirty Burt but sometimes it gets a bit to crowded and I might need to find a couple new spots
cant give specifics but all the stocked streams are fishing well now 🎣
@@BillMikesAnglingAdventures it doesn't really matter all the tribs are packed even on weekdays now. Used to fish that creek to escape the crowds. Never more than one car in the lot. Went down the other day and couldn't even get a parking spot. Drove upstream and all the pull offs were packed and all of the spots i used to fish are now posted. Nothing is sacred anymore.
depends on the day - it was crowded everywhere monday but i stll found places to fish and fish to catch as i always do
@@BillMikesAnglingAdventures then i better go and get a spot before all the fish get caught😅
Do you think the 18mi would be fishable tomorrow?
Check the usgs site I would fish around 125 cfs or lower depending on the creek
waterwatch.usgs.gov/?m=real&r=ny
How much snow would you guess fell from your last monster storm in the areas of the streams featured in this video?
around 50" got well over 100" this season already
@@BillMikesAnglingAdventures So
everything has melted?
What do you guys consider to be a “giant” in your neck of the woods?
the Steelhead round here average 3 to 6lbs so anything 10 or over i call giants lol but i have a 22lb Steelhead hanging on my wall from a local creek
@@BillMikesAnglingAdventures how long ago did you get the 22? That’s a stud!
maybe late 90's
