that is nuts. Most I ever paid was $25...and I never went there again. 45 is a crime and they will see their day business disappear...perhaps they want this? Are they the only launch on the lake? Maybe they are trying to discourage day use so that the people who drop the big $ on cottage rentals etc have a more enjoyable atmosphere....not so many boats and fisherman buzzing around.

used to go there every year when I was a kid. Pike ,bass, pickerel in both east lake and west lake. Which lake do you plan to target?

great! No more buying line for me, I can just tie together all the discarded fragments...ahh its good to be dutch.

NICE!!! Way to rub it in.

how do you like that dock at the launch? Was there last week...nearly flipped me right into the water!

NUTS! Gotta work tomorrow. Good luck wherever you end up

quote - "caught" a catfish by the loop of mono he had trailing out his butt hole man that is weird. I also had a friend catch a dead body...wonder if its the same friend as the person mentioned above...my buddies name was Mark

Back in the 90's a buddy and I went to a Halloween party as Hank and Italo. Although the ladies in attendance had no idea who we were, I did snag myself a date that night

thanks for the update, sorry to hear it didn't work out

super nice tiger! I have been bit by the "small musky bug" so far this year as well, glad to see I'm not the only one

small gel battery is all I ever used when I had a pull start engine.

hahaha good one Roy

I had a small motor like that for years and never used a transom saver. No problems.

how many guesses am I allowed to make?

Zoinks! Nice fish. Maybe 47 or 48? Either way its a beauty

you think the body of artwork is impressive, wait til you see her crank those double 12's in for 4 hours straight no breaks

aren't there enough lakes with pike in them already? Sheesh (big fish though, nice catch)

Awesome! Looks like you guys had a great time.

Please excuse my ignorance, but what the flip is a redblack? There must be something in this world called a redblack that I am unaware of, or did they really just put 2 colours together (ie The Ottawa PinkPurples)

...what he said. That's a pike.

I did my part...just got back from a trip to Balsam and caught a pike that had to be close to 40 inches. We ate the stinky beast.

I do enjoy the show, but wish he would keep it to more "tropical" destinations and unusual species. When he starts to talk about 6 foot killer pike and deadly tarpon it seems silly to me. Talk about some bizarre fish I've never heard of and I might believe that it could be dangerous.

some stinky bass farted and they are getting their nose out of the water

yup she's a beaut....I have a picture of me posing with a decent musky and I'm exhibiting a similar awkward grip. I set the fish briefly in the water to change the positioning of my hands and BAM she took off 110 miles an hour! Never got a good pic but there is one fish you know survived the battle!

I would say both Canal and Mitchell are riddled with pike. Personally I would go to mitchell (because its closer to "kawarthas" and catch and keep as many as i was allowed)
