Finally splurged on something better than my Fuji CrappyCam. Read good reviews on the Canon EOS M50 MkII, so I picked one up. Then got a Sigma 18-300mm to go along with it, it's made for a full-frame Canon but and adapter makes it fit. Going at this slowly and gently to reduce the amount of swearing, so haven't taken a lot of pictures yet. 10 days camping in Algonquin afforded some measure of practise, and I'm pleased with the set-up, any screwups are probably mine alone.

and I got 4 walleyes today...kept them all😘

Morning boys, I'm getting my daughter a new set of alloy wheels & winter tires and the wheels have a center bore of 56.1 mm and the car hub is 54.1 mm and I'm having trouble finding rings that size. Any body KNOW FOR SURE if I need rings for only 2 mm difference ?

Problem solved, I was able to get in touch with the wheel company the rings will be included with the wheels.

I've been experimenting with my new to me Sous Vide. My turkey breast recipe, shown earlier in the thread typically has a two day marinade; with the Sous Vide, no marinade required! Dump the marinade into the bag with the turkey and slow cook it for an hour or two and all the flavour is impregnated into the turkey. A quick 2 minute grill on my ceramic bbq side burner and done. I am really liking using the Sous Vide! HH

I feel covid and too many people living in one small area stressing this situation.

Hey all, another long time member coming outta the woodwork. Home from a week away, "off the grid & un plugged" withe family at a remote Fly in outpost cabin 50 miles north of Cochrane Everything came together as we lucked out on the timing & availability of this spot. Air Cochrane Services came highly recommended and we share the sentiment. Cabin was very clean & well equipped with basic/essential needs as well as 3 aluminum boats & well running 6hp outboards. Our lake was approximately 2x1 mile. Not alot of crazy structure & easy to navigate. Walleye were all over and pretty easy to pattern. The dusk bite in the evenings was very good. Lots in the 14-18 inch with a few each day over 20. Andrea landed the biggest at around 5 lbs & lost one much bigger. Had a couple pretty windy days that limited our time targeting pike. We did get a few during the week up to 25". Had a couple jigs bitten off too that we didn't see. For the the Eyes, jig heads in white, pink, white/pink, orange & chartreuse were best with a dew worm. We tried different twister tail grubs, fuzzee grubs & bucktaiks too. Never really got into floating jigs, harnesses or spinners much. Wasn't necessary. Only a couple jigs lost to snags. I've read many reports over the years on these kind of trips & am thankful for all the advice given. I highly recommend the Fly in experience. Despite the great fishing southern Ont & the great lakes has, I've got the urge to explore North a bit more over the next little while.. we'll see where we go next!

Awesome adventures reported here! Maybe someday I will have to do the fly-in thing

this site needs more of this content! Great trip, and some great fish caught.

I just like seeing reports on sites and others liking the same. Glad it worked out for ya on Bounce... Memories made and tough to beat those kinda trips with family.

Thanks, love flying but off to Lac Dumoine in Quebec this weekend for the Blue Walley

Sounds like a great trip

Awesome - glad it was a great trip - enjoyed reading that!

Great report, truly enjoyed it.

Well done

Can't think of a better way to spend a week with the family. Awesome trip and thanks for sharing
