Fact: When asking others about how good the fishing was .... It was always much better last week

Cool, last year I only saw the one mounted on the Wall, this year, I plan to explore more

Hi All:

yeap, I know its last minute, but does anyone have a depth chart of the West Arm of Lake Nipissing. Looking to do some preplanning for the trip.

Thanks

LeXX

WOW, love it. I think thats my retirement boat.

Where do you mount the kicker?

WOW, Always great to hear from you SuperDad.. Looks like you hit the gold mine.

What a sheepshead !!!!!! Almost as big as a Salmon.

What was the web sight again, I can't seem to see it at the top advertisement bar.

Unfortuantly, I only measure to check for slot or size limit, use to be weight only.

Guess that means I have not caught anything like MrEH, WOW nice fish BTW.

Oh well,

Sorry to hear about this, your post was very touching with your passion for life,

All our thoughts are with you.

I tried the Vanish as a main line was not impressed. I now use it as leader line and it works great.

No need to toss it if your not happy.

Nice, LB's is really putting up the presure with BPS in town.

Nice to have some competition left in the industry

See you at Lake Air

Tin foil, DOLT> why did I not think of that.. stops thoese darn burning the butt flairups

Looks good..

LOL, I had fishing put into the marrige contract.

I had been fishing since I was 5, my wife gets sea sick at red lobester so she hates it. Compromise one day family one day fishing

After our first kid, I went every 2 weeks one day and have stuck roughly to that schedule roughly ever since.

When our second was under negotiation I said, I still need to have my decompress time.. took a couple months of thinking but she agreed.

So far so good,. now the next issue will be when all the kids come fishing with me that could be considered a family day

I'm surprised nobody has suggested a new wife yet, you guys are getting slow.

A licence for her is much cheaper

I always go through this question each year, my wife tells me she wont be fishing etc, catching rays etc. not too waste my money.. I get her one anyway. With kids on board there is always the time you are busy and she is helping a kid fish. Yea I know but explaining that to the co is not worth the hassel

Mine may be a little too light but for walleye I use 14lb fluro leader on my braid line. works well

for anything else 55lb fluro.

Make your own, cheaper in the long run

We were only in the Ontario waters, no too far out of the main drag.

Each day we just followed the pack of boats., 13' of water was the key in the heat.

We just putted along with worms and bang, There were a couple times you could not cast without the perchie stripping you clean then it would suddenly stop as something bigger moved it thats one of the times I hooked into my pike.

No muskie caught that I could see boy there were there

if you want more specifics pm me can't give all the lurkers the goods

Well it was the annual Work Boys weekend trip for some great fishing and jokes...

Every year we venture out on Lake St Clair for some fishing the main reason is when you get a fish you really never know what it is until it hits the surface.

Talk about hot! And no it was not the fishing, We arrived the first day to "ZERO" wind and super heat. Not the best conditions but we managed a few perch, a walleye and a Sheepshead.

From Friday to Sunday we would get on the water by 7am to a little breeze and good fishing. By 10am the wind died as did the fishing. We always stayed out for a couple of hours but the bites were far and few between. Then we jumped in the 80F water to cool off.

Lots of perch, bass, pike and rock bass.

At 5pm each day the wind kicked up as the storms blew around but never provided rain, Only got out one night for 2 hours before we got blown off the water

One kicker of the trip is some "JERK"!!!!!! Backed into my trailer while we were fishing and smashed my rear light, hit it hard enough to bend the steel completely around we tried to bend it back by hand but looks like it needs heat and a sledge hammer.

No note, no sorry! No message at the office check in. Ahhh next trip is LakeAir !!! So lots of time to fix it.

Wow, love the pics.

Love the river pics, bet it was hard not too see about wetting a line ..

My deepest condolences Lew

Hey TbayBoy

Great having you in my boat again, Glad you had a good time and we did not get skunked. Learning is all part of the game. besides that just means next time I don't have to hold your hand .

Here is the pic of one of the fish

So we ended up

1 pound shaker ummmm on the BBQ

10 pound

13 pound

8 pound

and the biggeest of the year so far 17lb

plus my 35lb that got away

Not bad for the first time on lake 'O' thanks to all who gave me a little heads up at depth and colour... Gave us the opening we needed

LEXX

Cool thanks, If all else fails a bad day on the water is better than working at home

Hi All:

Well I was to head up to Lake Huron too do some nice spring salmon fishing but my plans got bumped by the wife. DOLT

That leaves me hunting for Salmon on Lake "O" does anyone know if there are getting them around PC yet?

Thanks

LeXX

Couple things I would be worried about

The heat from the coffee on a plastic container ~ outch

The heat loss from a plastic container ~ burrrrr

Cleaning out the coffe grounds

Once you use it for coffee anything else you put in there will taste like coffee

Bodems have been around for a long while, to quote a song GOT TOO KEEP THEM SEPARATED

I am voting Members only just viewing all pictures.

less lurkers and once people take the plunge they may start posting

Better Members list for advertising rates too pay for the board

Not that it should make a difference but less bandwith use for none members

OMGWD..... Thats just too funny.,

We were looking for a launch on Hays Bay drove around Sat evening (lost) looking for a place then saw the sign for pickeral park..

We ended up "last minute" camping for the night there and launching We must have past you about 10 times, on the water, and walked past you guys a few times...

I even has the OFC flag fluttering on my boat.. Oh well maybe next.

Looks like you guys had a super time. congrats.

Don't worry Irishfield, I will be following right behind you and your new boat...

(just don't cut the rope until we get there)
