most of the small feeder creeks from lake O have trout runs .. the creeks are so small and short (only run a couple miles before they fork off to 4-10 feeder ditches) that the trout are long gone before opening
I like using the rip .. pause ... retrieve for a couple feet then repeat .. vary the amount of rips and lengh of pauses .. I get alot of hits on the 2-3 ft retrive .. I believe the bass think the minnow got injured by another bass freaked out then started swimming normally and they want to hammer it before it gets away
Hey Geo
get the seller to give you a receipt for the boat ($1000), motor($7500), trailer($500) separately .. you will have to pay taxes on the boat and I believe the trailer when you get them registered .. good luck with the boat
or maybe they just flooded out one too many springs and moved ...but hey nice stereotype
cast a line in there when it thaws holdfast .. betcha its full of fish
I always thought they were a scam too until my cousin won a 14' boat/motor/trailer from the sportsmen show .. mind you it was quite a few years back .. if i got the call I would go .. got nothin to lose
I store everything in Plano trays so I only take what I need for the trip .. I open them up to dry overnight or longer if it was raining out when I was fishing .. I also put white rice in all my boxes to soak up any moisture in case I forget to dry them out .. been doing this for years and never had any rusted hooks
there is a new trailer park (couple years ago) across from the airport that has a launch .. not sure if its any good or not but might be worth a try before you drive all the way back
its easy to get there
take QEW Niagara
exit Centenial Pkwy (hwy 20)
hang a right and go straight (hwy 20 goes left when your on the mountain but keep going straight .. I believe it changes to hwy 56..watch speed limits the OPP were out in full force last Saturday just past Binbrook)
at the end of the road turn Left (River Rd)
the road will merg into Hwy 3 just before town(stay to the right)
go straight thru the light (I beleive the only one in town)
take the first right past the tracks
if you see canadian tire on your left youve gone too far
might see you out there .. hoping to get out for some kitties
just took another quick run thru the regs .. I remember they used to have a section on freedom from harassment while fishing and hunting but cant seem to find it .. . your best bet is to head over to your local cop shop and find out from them what would be the best way to take care of it
