Bon Echo is certainly beautiful but my vote would be for Bonnechere.

I agree with you on Bonnechere PP Dave, it's the only provincial park I've ever stayed in but it was excellent.

We were there in September a few years back and the place was nearly deserted. Fairly isolated from any large populations and we practically had the place to ourselves and the scenery is as good as you'll find anywhere.

Most importantly - you can't put a price on the lives of your loved ones!

HH, my daughter was heading up the 115 late at night a few years back and caught her right front tire on the soft shoulder.

It spun her car sideways, threw her across the road where she hit the center retaining wall head-on, then she got broadsided by a truck that was coming up behind her in the left lane. All this while she was doing 60 MPH

The whole thing probably only took about 3 seconds and her car was comletely destroyed and it took the fire department 30 minutes to cut her free.

Fortunately, the injuries weren't too severe due to the excellent design of the seatbelt and air bags, but it just shows how fast something terrible can happen. I pass by the spot several times each week between May & November and still shudder every time I think about what could have happened.

Well done CC, good see you braving the elements, it's tough casting with frozen fingers !!

Yup, that too Sheldon, infact over the years I've found my best bait for night time trolling on Quinte to be a Bomber Long "A", blue back with orange belly

I'd definetely say someone was looking over your shoulder HH with it breaking like that, and not at hiway speeds with your family in the car.

Sometimes a bad thing turns out to be a blessing in disguise.

Blue top with white belly was a hot bait in January.

It's pretty good for Quinte pickeral in May too !!

I was being sarcastic Cliff

Maybe fasten a couple very sharp fish hooks to the back side of the door handles on your fish huts.

Bet the punks won't try to break in a 2nd time.

WTG Joey, your definetely on a roll this year, hope your buying lottery tickets too

They'd probably be instand friends John, Marvin's never met another dog he didn't like.

WTG John, good lookin pooch too

We've had it good here in Toronto this winter as far as snowfall goes, I think the weather channel said we've had a grand total of 9 cm, while everyone around here has gotten clobbered.

Kinda nice too, there's just too much traffic around here and it only takes a few inches to shut this town down.

We've dodged a few storms, hopefully we'll duck this one too.

The radio says we're only looking at about 10 cm for the Smoke....hopefully

Very nice indeed Jim, looks like you were paying attention in class

1 o'clock on Thursday for me too.

Thanks for that 007, that was an excellent read and it sounds like you truly enjoyed your 1st experience on the ice !!

A few nice perch just made it all that much better

Good to hear everything turned out as well as you'd hoped Gerritt, and it's always nice when you can meet up with a couple new OFNer's for a day of fish'n.

Thanks Mike, sounds like you had a great day.

Luv the part about your son catching all the fish while your still setting up

Great idea taking the Coleman on the ice with you too, lots better than cold food !!

BARE, I'll be heading to the show on Thursday and will be there for the 1:00 opener

Good to have you home Wayne, sounds like an excellent trip , inspite of the frigid temps.

Purty country up that way too !!

Except for a few minnows we used on the Lower Niagara last winter and a couple ice fishing trips, I haven't used live bait in probably 40 years and I usually do pretty good.

Hey Roger, good hearing from you Pal !!

I figured you'd be posting your famous musky "SMILE" picture

Sorry Rick, HONEST !!!! I didn't mean to nuke it

A new thread just appeared at the top of the page called "boundary waters"

I clicked on it, and it disappeared......

jeeez, did I hit a nuke button or something ??

I'm with you Dan, I've seen enough and I'm ready for springtime

Sunrise at Lakair

This is from our campground on our annual May 24 pickeral trip to Quinte

The boyz planning the stragedy for getting those Quinte pickeral

Only 3 months to go

I just typed matzuo.com into google and it came right up, but a box opened saying something about a security alert before the site opened.

Give it a try
