The season is here once again for my fav fresh water fish. White fish. Opens in the morning and I am all loaded up and stoked.

Read the room fellas, you missed the temperature, and you're overcooking the roast. Further, ever tried charging a child under 12 for a grip and grin? Nothing bad will ever come of this, even if posted on facebook.

Absolutely does not need to be changed.. Then you'd have guys targeting OOS fish just to get pics with them. There's a season for a reason.

Hi all, Got out with a buddy to do a bit more exploring before walleye opens here on Wabigoon Lake, got into some bass, a few pike and a couple of crappie. Surface temps have risen a fair bit in a week, hovering around 48 - 50F on the main lake and in a few shallow channels we saw up to 57F. Bass were in the shallow bays in the warm muddy waters and a few shallow rock flats, very aggressive, pike are probably just about done spawning in the shallow weedy bays and the crappie we found were down in and suspended over 27'FOW.

Totally agree, on some sites that photo would get you booted. If you want a pic with a musky fish for them in season, simple as that. Or else get a pic taken as you land the fish.

Sorry!

For spring pike? No. GPool is where you'll want to target. Little Chute comes out of Six Mile and dumps into GPool. East end of the lake by Big Chute.

Go get 'em!

The second Saturday in May is always a great weekend in Southern Ontario. Pike and Walleye also open in most zones...but the powers that be really need to move Mother's Day to another weekend...lol

I am ready for the opener too

Agree. The problem is how do you define "quick photo". It becomes a grey area...5 seconds out of the water can become 5 minutes. Allowing people to take photos of fish that legally should be immediately released becomes a slippery slope..."the sun's behind me, let me get a better grip, make sure my buddy is in the photo too, make sure the lure is showing"...and the next thing you know it's a dead fish. The reg's as they stand now are simple and straightforward...if the fish is not eligible for retention, then no photos at all. Period. I understand that there are changes coming to the reg's to allow photos during the C&R seasons. Like the new Bass season on FMZ20...you can legally target Bass, but you just can't keep them. Though that won't apply to OOS fish. As for the photo in this thread...yes, if it was my grandson I would take a photo so he can always remember the moment...but I wouldn't post it on a public forum. As the last sentence below notes..."self-incriminatinion, especially if the image appears on social media ".

Beautiful horses guys. My dad grew up in Saskatchewan during the depression and spent the summers working on his uncles farm. He always talked about the pair of Clydesdales they had and my dad usually got to drive the team for whatever job they were doing. He always said they were massive critters and unbelievably strong but gentle as lambs. When I was a kid growing up in Toronto (East York) in the 50's there was a horse stable at St. Clair & Warden where us kids would go on Saturdays. Seems to me we paid 25 cents for an hours trail ride and my favorite horse that I always picked was "Big Red" LOL Sadly that's all gone now and the fields and stables are monstrous homes, plazas and subways stations but I spose that's progress/

Both of hers are rescued as are our 3 dogs,2 cats and a rabbit.. we don't have any history of the darker one but we know he came from a very bad situation and was almost 500 pounds lighter when the rescue got him

I understand Pics. That is a very beautiful picture, I love the horse, wow. You must be very proud of your daughter, I always wish I had one but after two big boys my wife said that's it LOL. I've spent my share of time with appaloosas and never had a problem for a minute. The horse's I have now came from the Rocky Mountain Foothills, wild horse's. The black and white one, so beautiful, looks as though he just came off the reserve. I just got him a few months ago. He has his playful moods and can be a handful. He will tease the Hell out of me when I try to saddle him by running off, just one of the things I like about him. but once it is on him he quits playing games. I'm not afraid to take him anywhere. The other one is as gentle as can be, also a nice looking horse, at least to me with nice dapples. Just a sweet heart.

Oh come on now. Some crappie and loads of snot rockets. LOL

Free. I wouldn't waste my time in Maclean.
