  1. Was there last weekend and noticed that boat. It's an older boat and was thinking, if they really fixed it up it would be pretty nice. Now I see this, guess they should of fixed it up.

    Hopefully all oil\gas doesn't start killing off all the fish there. Fingers crossed.

  2. That sucks big time. I mean it's always good to get out on the water regardless, but it's really nice when you put in the hours that you get rewarded with some fish.

     

    Did you try by the light house in Telegraph Narrows or by Forrester's Island? Those 2 spots I usually always catch something. Just curious. I should be heading up there sometime mid November, I hope the fising picks up by then.

    Btw that imaginary fish looks at least 34" long. :)

  3. If he thought the media and fans were tough in Vancouver, haha, he's going to get eaten alive as a Leaf. I've always been a fan of Luongo since his junior days, but just don't think he's clutch. I personally wouldn't like the acquisition if it happens.

  4. You don't have to confine yourself to the pond at 50pt. You can fish in certain area's in the marina this time of the year and you can also fish off the rocks on the lake. Both area's you can cath trout and salmon.

    You can also head down to Jordan Harbour or Port Dalhousie. Another area you may want to check out the old Welland Canal in and around Dane City (by the John Deere plant). Several different species there and not that far away either. Good luck.

  5. So many people rave about these rods, but I've had 3 tips snap on the lighter spinning rods.

     

    Perhaps the heavier musky rods are more durable but I'm not willing to take the chance to find out.

     

    Glad to hear Grimsby Tackle treated you well. For many years I avoided that store like the plague because the owner was so incredibly unfriendly.

     

    The previous owner was hit and miss with his mood, but he was a really good guy when you got the good mood. Think he was done for several years of the bait shop thing and ready to retire......However, Martin is the new owner and is a really good guy.....but am sure he is susceptible like all of us at times to our dark side. That is one of my favourite places to shop.

  6. Alright, I think I have the rod down for now. But in terms of spoons, I got a bunch of little cleos but they only hold a glow for a cast or two. Last night I saw some guys that had really, really nice ones, they said that they were called pete spoons, anyone know where to buy them?

     

    They are referring to the spoons you get at Peter's Tackle in St. Catherines. Custom made and very popular spoons and pretty cheap too. They do hold the glow a lot longer than cleo's...

  7. Jigging is one technique I have not done enough of. I am going to try it more often when I go on vacation to Rice Lake coming up. What is your ideal rod and line you like to use for jigging in the weeds for walleye? ie. length, power, action, braid\mono\copoly\flouro.

  8. I had that happen in a boat... I figured musky or pike....

     

    On a dock is say turtle or animal...

     

    I left a stringer of bullhead catfish hanging from the dock overnight... In the morning they were all gone and the stringer was out of the water laying on the dock... Just a few jaw bones left... I figured mink or coons did the damage... Those mink can be tough little critters...

     

    One time I put a few walleye in a big water tank to clean in the morning... By morning they were all gone... And one was 4-5 pounds... There were 3-4 fish in there... Then we saw the little footprints and figured out it was the minks...

     

    Wow, I can't believe those little guys took out a 4-5 lb'er. That's crazy. And clever on top of that too! Cool story.
