  1. Muskie growth and potentials and limitations to a world record

    in General Discussion

    Posted · Edited by Randy from Sturgeon

    I also heard of a pike study done on Nippissing that involved netting and the MNR reportedly netted several muskies during that study that were approaching 63-65" . These fish on a body of water such as the Nip. surley have record potential.

     

     

     

    I know of 2 60" from Nipissing this year ... one even made the front page of The North Bay Nugget......

    LIVE RELEASE for both. :clapping:

     

    And I also know that a 61.5" apparently 58.5 lbs was KILLED in a gill net just east of Target Is. on Nipissing.

    I know the angler... or so called.

     

    What a shame........ :wallbash:

  2. Winter Gloves/Mitts

    in General Discussion

    Posted · Edited by Randy from Sturgeon

    14" Moosehide mitts , with shaved Wolf fur "Snotter" beaver fur lined 145.00$ custom made by Native artisan... very warm well worth the "$$" . Bought a unshaved Beaver Lined Wolf Fur hat with 10x6" flaps 125$ again well worth the $$. probably available at a "Trading Post"

     

     

    Great gloves are available at most snowmobile shops... leather gore-tex wind and water proof expect to pay around 75$. Mine are " Ski-Doo" branded but are probably the same as the others... I've had them for 5 years now and are still in great shape no unstitching or tearing... velcro strap is getting worn out though very warm.

     

    For added Impermeability spray on some "Boot Dressing" doesn't stain and works great.

     

     

    Stay Warm!!!

  10. Musky question?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    It's unfortunate that anybody has the opportunity to eat Muskie..............BUT

    I've accidentally killed some Muskies 5 or 6 in the past 20 yrs or so. :( ....I wasn't gonna let anything go to waste ... I have one on the Wall and the rest have been tried in many different ways.

     

     

    Smoked , Jerkey'd, Baked , Pan fired /deep fried, BBQ.....all not bad.

     

    The one thing I've found is to fillet the fillet in half legnthways.....make it thinner and then cut it into manageable chunks.

     

    In all of my Muskie eating misadventures.. I liked it best in the Deepfryer with some kind of coating I liked Fish Crisp. with a close second coming in BBQ on a broiler pan or cedar plank muck like a Salmon.

     

    Sure I felt bad for KILLING the Muskies ... but not bad enough to slit my wrists.

    It's gonna happen, some of the Muskies caught will die.

     

    After posting this, someone's gonna come over here and slit my wrists I'm sure......

    Overpaid GOONS who chase a piece of tar/cow-patty down the ice .......?????????????????

     

     

    Rather watch tennis or darts.

     

    I was forced into hockey as a kid made it to Bantam AAA and WON the Silver Stick in Fort Erie back in 1986..... disliked Hockey ever since.

  14. Indoor/Outdoor Carpet vs. Marine Carpet?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    In-Door Out-Door BURNS in the SUN and gets very DRY !!! Expect 2-3 years in the Low Traffic area of the boat and 1-2 yrs in the Hi-Traffic.... This is my neighbors routine he even changes color every time.

     

    Spend the extra$$$ and get the Marine Grade Hi-Pile or go for the Non Slip Vinyl......

     

    I'll be due next season ... going for Carpet .

     

    Cheaper Isn't always better.

    I also like it in the can!!

     

    REAL BEER that is.

     

    BL Lime in a can reminds me of the old "DURANGO" malt based coolers that I would drink when I was under aged.

  21. At What Depth

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Light is absorbed by water according

    to wavelength with the longer wave radiation (red) absorbed first. Maximum

    transmission is for short wavelengths of light (blue). This is the case

    for radiation in the VISIBLE range. The peak in transmission for water is

    in the blue wavelengths. Beyond blue, even shorter wavelengths such as

    ultraviolet, absorption increases again.

     

    This absorption accounts for the disappearance of color from lures because

    the color of light must be present to be reflected back to your eyes and be

    seen. In other words, a red lure will appear black in deep water because

    no red light is present to reflect off the lure.

     

    Please note however, that this is the case for clear water, such as the

    open ocean and pristine lakes. In nearshore waters, that contain high

    amounts of colored suspended material, the colors that reach the deepest

    will probably be green and yellow. This is only because more blue light is

    absorbed at shallower depths, not because green and yellow reach greater

    depths.
