Mine's not on the list and I also know that mine works very well.

Now Dan, that's what's commonly referred to as "Sickloids". One heck of a fish! I'm having trouble with the picnic table on the back of the boat.

Some nice fishies there Matt. Thanks for sharing your year so far!

Some fine fins and footage there Mike! Congrats to you and thanks for sharing those gems.

You and Charlotte will certainly remember that trip for a while. It was a great report, thank you.

World class fishing, photography, writing and comradery my friend. World class for sure. Thank you for taking the time to share it with us. Fantastic!

Thanks for the kind words folks.

Congratulations to you and Mel. You've both embarked on quite the adventure....it'll be a wonderful life. Thanks for sharing your joy.

Keep the bleach away from the vinegar. it could get nasty.

A beautiful holiday Frankie, Juli and family. Certainly heartwarming souvenirs for you guys. Thanks for sharing. Old and young alike are envious I'm sure.

Yeah, so at the last minute I decided to stay on the Larry as opposed to driving very far. It turned out to be a great day weather wise and friend wise. Aside from just having a good day, my goal was to grab a few points for team #1 which I've been neglecting and I didn't feel too good about that either. We hit the water around 8:45 and it really was a glorious day. We trolled for a while but were not really paying attention ...I suspect we had a lot of catching up to do with family news etc... The first hit was a big fish. It wasn't a rip, it was a grunt. You can really tell when a big one hits. It was not to be, it was my error....I just didn't hit back. Anyhow, I wanted a few points for the team and I think I got a few. But they were definitely not what I would have expected. Got two fish that we didn't have in the standings...also small fish for the species but it all adds up. Me brudder Brian threw in a whitie that we absolutely needed to even be in the race. Water temp was 73.4 in the morning and 73.9 come evening so that fish didn't leave the water. A small fish but a healthy male. Good chance I'll get a bigger one before closing. Another small fish here for the species but healthy and that was comforting. Also wanted to do some tubing...no giant by any means but hey. It was still fun. <a href="http://s300.photobucket.com/albums/nn28/Bassigan/?action=view&current=IMG_0136.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/nn28/Bassigan/IMG_0136.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> I have other pics somewhere. I'm really glad that a lot of people had a great time this Labour Day weekend.

Damn! Sorry Jacques....when I got the PM I was rushed and got sidetracked! We'll get together soon I hope.

You were probably fishing way west of me. How did you make out? Did you have a good day?

It was a super fine day, cloud and sunshine, not too hot and very little wind. Just a wonderful day really. I was able to get 56 inches (the hard way ) for team one. That should help a little. The procrastination has got to stop...I have to get out more and produce a little. A little tired tonight. I'll put up a report tomorrow.

Government employees are now shooting them here on Lac St-Pierre.

No, her name was Marsha but don't tell Betty!

Good stuff Mike! How did those fish release? I'm hitting the water tomorrow and may just target walleye/bass.

It's great to read about new members. But, do I really need to re-introduce myself? Hey, I'm me! I've been here forever!

Wow! Now there's a knowledgeable and helpful first post! Welcome aboard Cat.

Simon, what in heaven's name did you type in the search field to come up with something like that. I'm starting to worry about you.

Wow! I just went through some of Madison's work on her blog. Fantastic stuff. And I might add, a great looking family you have there Chris! It's also really refreshing to read/hear of/ feel the complicity between sisters.

Well done Luc! Good to see you on top of your game. Man you have some beauty fish in there. Thanks for sharing, it was a nice way to start my morning.

You've been watching too much Pinette.

Thanks for your input Larry. The winds were called for today and tomorrow (Friday) but the weekend appears to be reasonable from most predictions. I'm going to play this one by ear I guess. Thanks again, Bud.
