    A article about bigmouth buffalo in Minnesota being 112 years old and why that might not be a good thing. https://www.in-fisherman.com/editorial/bigmouth-buffalo/371327

    I've ordered 2 giant rubber bands and a ramp from ACME. Most of the ratings were very good but someone with the handle W.E. Coyote only gave it half a star. Photos to follow.

    It'd be nice to see the true shape of the tail. I was thinking a small snakehead but wouldn't put any money down.

    I figured the apps were similar, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I use the ihunter app for maps, WLU boundaries and seasons. I was hoping the fishing app was the same. Thanks for the fed-back.

    I've read his stuff in Ontario Out of Doors since the 80's, I know he likely was writing for them before then, but i was more into Hot Wheels and hockey cards in the 70's.

    Anybody currently using the iFish app? I have the iHunter app and find it useful.

    Used to use a french press but now I use an Italian coffee pot most of the time. Either of those and a bean grinder are all you need.

    Tell you what Marty. I'll go fishin' for ya and send you LOTS of photos.

    The only outboard I saw you drive had no prop at all.😮

    I’ve been waiting to open this thread because January was too far from open water season for me. Now that sports will be wrapping things up for a bit I figured this would be a good night to take a look and share mine. I bought this from another member here in the spring of 2013 and it has been perfect. The single thing to fail was a winch strap a few years ago.

    Welcome. I can't help with those lures or the local knowledge. From the fishing shows and magazines just about everything that swims is in your area.

    You get them up there? I make too much noise stomping around looking for grouse, but I've not even seen sign of them.

    And only on crown or public land.

    The challenge with making ice outdoors is the cold is "coming" from the top and going down. Rinks with refrigerant of course do the opposite. If you put too much water on top of the ice the top freezes and then the water underneath starts to freeze. Water expands as it freezes and the previous frozen top pops off into that shale. Keep the coats of water thin and let it freeze solid before coating again. The other trick that works at home (if you have access to indoor tap) is to use thin coats of hot water. It helps to smooth out the skate ruts. On a lake, shovelling off as much of the snow and skate shavings first help if you don't have hot water.

    I got caught on my fly once. Something you never need to learn again.

    They clearly were not disposed of properly, but that might be the only offence. The coyote "season" for WMU 88 where NOTL is open all year.

    My kids have been asking to go. In part, I think because they want to see how the rinks have been converted. We'll see how today's play-off game goes and see if we have to play Sunday.

    Booked for the last week in July. Fun family time at the lake.

    Thanks for the feedback. Looking to spend a week there this summer.

    Assuming normal summer water levels can a 16 foot 50hp fishing boat travel from Kashagawigamog to the connecting lakes? Soyers, Grass. Head?

    That's right. We need to stay on topic. Disparaging a generation that had nothing to do with this event.

    Some are only worth 2 bits.

    Likely I wasn't talkin' 'bout you.

    It's interesting to see people using something like this to take shots at other groups (groups that don't appear to factor into this tragedy). Just this week some numbers were released on snowmobile deaths in Ontario over the last 10 years. The numbers don't point to "younger" people. The numbers show that it's males, drinking, aged 45-54 and driving machines off trail. We (men) are great at killing ourselves doing all sorts of dumb things both sober and drunk. Maybe before blaming a younger generation raised by the older generations, we should look at our own generation. Now, get off my lawn.
