So you have only posted 5 times and each time you post a link , which has little to do with the original poster. So do you get paid for each hit on a link you provide

Terry, you can see the eye sockets, the jawlines, it's like the G-Loomis skeleton head coming at your bait. It's so fn' cool! lol

With livescope i have seen a lot of fish but the first time I marked a muskie and could even see its fins and tail moving and it was so big I just couldn’t believe it , it was worth the price of admission

No waders last... but theirs didn't stand up too bad against my past Cabelas, Orvis and Bushlines.

TJ graciously helps with the website techy stuff. Just got a data plan for my phone, first time ever, about 18 months ago I think..? Don't care for tech and fret just putting "apps" on the phone. Boat runs Lowrance Carbons and an HDS 2. Good enough for me, for now! Until two years ago, the ice fishing sonar had always been a Lowrance X67 StevieZ bought me in 2009. But... the 2022 season fishing was growing boring in some respects. Bought a LiveScope going into 2023 and at first was slow to play with it. When I did though, my laker fishing, walleye, pike and muskie fishing were all made better by it. And it was fun too! Learned a lot. And usually I'm pretty confident without relying too heavily on tech that I'll get fish, whatever I'm after, figuring it out eventually. Well, the LiveScope takes that confidence up a notch. An example... with muskie. I've fished some spots for years that I can smell the fish, feel 'em, the hair on my neck stands up, the spots thru experience speak to me BUT, for all the times stopping there I couldn't get a fish. That's muskie fishing, never there at the right time I suppose..? But visiting with the Livescope and finding/seeing a couple here, a few over there, it was just the tool to confirm what I had been thinking all along. With that, came more confidence to fish those spots more, fish them at bite window times, and I suppose that's why catch numbers doubled in 2023 over 2022 and ALOT of that was done so on new water or old spots that felt fishy but never produced. In that respect it was a new tool to really enjoy, learn from and succeed with. Am I for or against it?!? Honestly, I'd rather go back than ahead. I don't care for Social Media as much as I ever did the forums but, the masses went there... and so I go too. It's the same with the tech, usually reluctant to take it on, spend the dough on it, get caught in that consumer trap but, it arrives and reshapes the landscape and eventually it reshapes you too. FFS is going to make rockstar anglers out of gamers, unless every single one of us turns a blind eye to it and we don't buy. That ain't happening! So, maybe just better to be happy you got to live angling past, present and whatever is to come in the future too.

This is the only line I prefer to be on.

The best PP in Ontario is called Crown Land in my opinion. I get out of the city and fish to get away from people and rules. No way am I going to go to a PP and be told I can't... -talk to my buddies outside the tent after 9:00pm - play music at the site -purchase wood for a fire -pay the ridiculous daily fees -deal with the sheer numbers of people I was trying to get away from in the first place! OP, look for accessible crown land and do what you want! HH
