  1. Hi Brian As far as a Walleye fishery, Well if you are talking 17"-20" fish Little Miss far exceeds Apisabigo . But I did get a 29" and a 28" outta Apisabigo and nothing over 21" out of Little Miss. My group did fish Elbow Lake Which is a portage lake from Little Miss We were able to boat up a small river to get in and We got a 25.5" a 24" and a 23" in this Lake The Pike in Little Miss were mostly under 24" and very skinny I really liked Little Miss, Lots of fish and lots of water to explore, especially with the back lakes out flow to the north. Personally I would go back but 3 guys in my group are really interested in some bigger Pike The water levels appeared to be about normal for this area Wawa/Chapleau As was confirmed by Martin Have a great trip to Apisabigo Cheers Rick
  2. Hey Chris The lack of bugs really surprised me, But in a good way. We did not go south of the Hawk Air camp All the Walleye were caught in less than 9 fow. And you told me that bay was a 15 fow trough so we did not go there. The fish were not in the deeper holes. The only spot we tried and did not catch fish was out the NE arm
  3. Yes B When my buddy showed up at camp with that one I had to get a picture just for you!!
  4. Yea Bill We went to Elbow looking for some big Pike but could not find anything that you would call BIG, The ones we did get were thick and fat where as the Pike in Little Miss were very skinny.
  5. Hi Guys Just did a week at Little Miss. The weather was almost too nice!! More like sitting under a shade tree with a cooler full of ice and beer weather, Hot, blue bird skies with zero wind But the Walleye fishing in Little Miss was fantastic The only place we did not catch fish was in the long arm that goes to the north east. We had one day of heavy rain started at 9am and lasted till 4. We were out when it started and stayed out till noon most of the guys were soaked by then But the skies cleared and we had a great evening fish. Bugs were almost non existent I never had the bug jacket on and only used the spray once All the Walleye we caught were full of the May fly larvae But they were aggressively feeding as the adult may flies had not yet surfaced. Little Miss was easy fishing for numbers of 17-20 inch Walleye. We caught very few under 16". Pike were plentiful but none over 30" and most very skinny and under 24 inches. We were able to boat into Elbow Lake There were 2 beaver dams to get over We did not get to Trump Elbow produced the biggest fish a 25.5 inch a 24 and a 23 inch. We did not get a pike over 30" in Elbow We fished the outflow at the north end twice once it was very good and once ok One of the other boats went twice with about the same results A buddy got a Whitefish out of Elbow It was very tasty almost zero fat not like the ones we get in Simcoe The big fish did not come out of my boat so no pics of them until the lads send me some Fish porn to follow Cheers Rick
  6. Hey Bill Some beauty Pike Well done!! The girlfriend is a 'Keeper' for sure!! My days of sleeping on the ground are long gone!! Thanks for posting Rick
  7. In the Marco Muzzo incident, 3 years ago, a Grandfather and 3 grandchildren were killed. His name was released pending charges.
  8. You can make up all the excuses you want, But bottom line the truck driver went through a stop sign in front of a bus and 15 people were killed
  9. Hey Simon Great gig Its fantastic ya can make a few bucks doing something you love to do! Just a heads up on the insurance thing. You might want to have a conversation with a lawyer on the issue. There is a whole new set of rules when you are receiving money for services rendered. A buddy was planning to rent fish huts, as a part time winter thing, but when he looked into insurance he changed his mind. Cheers, Have fun Rick
  10. Hey Chris You got it real bad!! LOL You need a fishing trip Cheers Rick
  11. Bill Ya might not make May 1 But with the warmer weather and rain May 5 could be doable. Lots of melting happening up here now Open water at any river/creek mouths and current areas
  12. Very nice Bill Its great to see some fish pics from the soft water To many more successful trips Cheers Rick
  13. Drift sock, pail, trolling plate They will all work Just which one you want to deal with
  14. Photos show no damage to front of the truck, major damage to front of bus, major damage to trailer and load littered over scene. Appears bus hit truck. But events leading up to crash are under investigation.
  15. A terrible,tragic incident for sure Very sad Thoughts and prayers to all
  16. Hey B Perfect eater and sweet pic Cheers Rick
  17. Hey Gordy Where are ya coming from? Tim Hales out of Beaverton for the East side Terry Goy out of Gilford for the West side Likely with a midweek trip you could dictate your hours Cheers Rick
  18. OH Yes Simon You are driving us guys down here in the "Banana Belt" crazy!! But keep the reports/videos coming I enjoy them all Cheers Rick
  19. Hey Chuck Chris better be careful or his Mom will be invoking the FOI Act!!!
  20. Yes I agree with Sinker on the Polaris. If you are planning on winter use, they have issues starting in the cold.
  21. Very,very nice right there!! Just in time before ice Cheers Rick
  22. Sweet looking Jigs! I need to make a trip to Barrie
  23. I do not have a lot of experience with the sxs but as far as ATVs I have been running a Can Am for 4 years, before that a Yamaha Big Bear for 12 years, using it for summer trail riding and working around my camp, in winter for ice fishing and plowing snow Machine has been perfect zero issues. I do keep mine hooked to a battery tender in the winter in the unheated garage. Grease it and change oil once a year. Use 87 Octane gas with Star Tron all year I ride with another XT same as mine, and an XT Max which is the 2 up, a Yamaha Grizzly and a Honda Rubicon. The only issue is with the Honda in the winter, When its cold the electronic shift does not work some time. Happy shopping Cheers Rick PS My buddy with the other XT, just read this post, and reminded me of one issue I did have. That was a taillight getting water inside. This was replaced by BRP under warranty
  24. Thanks guys My Terrova is in its 6th year with lots of use and zero issues. I like the break it when its broke theory, but I sure would miss it if it was out of commission. I use it damn near as much as a fishing rod But I have lots of back up there! Cheers Rick
