school of bait fish swimming by

Caught a lot of big perch yesterday on Simcoe and most of them are full of eggs, I was wondering if they are good to eat?

Thanx!

Lake SImcoe, the frozen part

oh, I would have never thought of that

I'll be out there as well..

where abouts ?

I was planning for Saturday

Thanks!!!

anybody knows if ice is still good on Simcoe after the rain?

tx!!!

Make the drive, go to Gilford on Simcoe. You'll never have a dull moment.

...or Lefroy, Virginia Beach...

if u want action don't go to Belwood

...sounds like you picked this from a commercial running around on youtube

Natives are not being mistreated by our government, they are being mistreated by their OWN CHIEFS. The money is there and lots of it, it just gets distributed to a select few while the rest live in poverty.

I have to say, I don't know much on this matter but I'll tell you what I know about this Attawapiskat place...

For those of you who don't know, about 90km from the village, on their native land...there is the only diamond mine in Ontario. I had the chance to go work there for a while. Company that runs the mine is De Beers, probably richest diamont company in the world. The rocks they pull out of there ,they're saying, are the best and most expensive in the world because of clarity and quality. More then half of all workers there are natives from Attawapiskat, that was one of the deals mine had to make with them when they started digging and everybody there gets payed around $30/h or more. Another deal that the mine had to do was pumping millions of dollars from the profit into the village every year. The company I used to work for out of Timmins contracted some of the jobs in the village...first thing building companies were doing when starting a job was to fence the place so natives couldn't get in and steel everything...but they didn't even get the chance to finish the fence cause natives were steeling the fence posts and burn them, obviously easier then going to the forest and chop your own wood

So, imao...with all the money that's being pumped there, if those guys live in poverty is because they chose to, and if their roofs are leaking is because they burned the shingles in their bbq's in the summer never thinking the winter will come again :D

I was there yesterday (Saturday) and parked from 7am to about 5 pm and no ticket. Maybe its a weekday thing? No signs posted anywhere that I could see.

same here...never knew about any parking limit, and no signs...

disgusting...

It's been long enough, make the Natives follow the rules of the rest of us. Taxes, Hunting, Fishing. No more long netting, no more unlimited kills, no more free rides.

+1

you definitely picked a better place then us, VB was very slow

Nice! And I was excited with our 17" snot rocket!

pike sizes are inversely proportional with geographical latitude

went to VB yesterday, came home with 14 keepers, lots of small ones, bite was bellow average I'd say, we could see the fish through the holes kissing the minnow and swim away ...in the afternoon it died completely

ice was 6-7"

Caught 1perch so far...

I'd say u start by waiting for the ice first ...we fished abt 1km off the north side of the big island, that was the only place with good ice last winter, drive there and you'll see where everybody's fishing

anybody ever used those Ken's Hooks on Simcoe? wondering if it's worth buying some...

it is a spot in the middle of simcoe that had great whitefish fishing one year and Sly, (RIP) was the great guy that found the spot and lead people to it

haha...good one I would have named it Slyhole though

I can't find Slyville on the map!

what's in Slyville?

anybody knows if ice is safe anywhere?

forgot to mention...some place for perch fun

tx!!!

like I need another spot to spend money...lol

fishing and hunting spending never ends

Can anybody recommend one of these or another?

thanks, peter

there you go

so today is the end of the world...anybody knows what time? :P:
