 Chris Cinelli and fellow Captain heading out for a day. Capt. Cinelli is the guy with the orange survival suit on. |
 Notice the water clarity. The boat on the right was a couple of guys from Buffalo and they reported they were going to fish the Upper River but it was choked with ice from ice being pushed over the boom. Watch for ice coming down soon from Lake Erie. Maybe this afternoon. |
 Line up at the ramp about 8:00 AM. All these boats were waiting to launch. ALWAYS prepare your boat at the top of the hill BEFORE entering launch area |
 Notice the survival suits on most of these fishermen. They will not only save lives but will keep you warm & toasty |
