So then one shouldn't see this stuff in fall when it cools? I've seen it thick in the fall.

Just did some backroad fishing in Nipigon...it brings me back!

Took these pics in late June. I see these clumps all year long on this five mile SW Ontario body of water. Way up on some of the feeder creeks the water is clear. Someone postulated that this could be spring turnover or caused by migrating birds. There is a significant geese population of say 30 birds that stays for most of the year. Is this geese poop, farm runoff, sewage "treatment", or caused by some other form of nature?

It would be north of the Sudbury-Northbay line unless it was the Ottawa river, or lake huron...but those places are better known for Muskie.

In my wildest dreams I couldn't even be 300 pounds over, even if my beer was packed away in lead cases!

Yeah floating bread. A old gentlemen was feeding carp directly by tossing bread to them at our park. I asked him if I could use a piece and simply put on a small hook. Worked about 3 times before they all got wise. Unfortantly they didn't return...Doh!!! Talk about topwater.

Your own private hole. Ahh the good life....

I'll have a day to kill as I make my way from Cochrane to Nipigon in early July so I was hoping that someone knew of a nice little resort on a really nice lake inbetween those two towns.

Look for current on the tides...choke points...and moving water. Predators will be there. You'll need a leader. White and silver are the colours and you'll want to burn your lures. Heavy relatively straight spoons, white deer hair jigs, everything with very strong hooks. If the lure is meant to wobble a lot I'd leave it at home. Stay away from darker colours especially black. Good neoprene boots, great polarized sun glasses, and a heavy sun screen are all musts. Grease reels before you go, wash everything after you get back, rust forms in hours. For slack water pools poppers work well, also surface baits can be explosive.

A while back I used to post under "snagged". I'm scuro on a number of messageboards. Thought I would keep it consistent.

Happy fishing to all!
