Hey Smokey yup its Derek, he's back. Hoping to meet up this hard water season maybe a day out on Cooks or something.

The GRCA is closed for ice fishing on Belwood and Guelph due to the lack of water, they also needed to do some dam gate maintenance. Lets hope for lots of snow and lots of rain this spring....fill er up.

Hey Sugarpacket my wife wants to know where you got the cool hat....better let me know where cause the next time we see Rich she might take it....lol.

Ya I was home in time to watch the Juniors too, nice officiating eh! Lake "X" was pretty bumpy, some of it was skatable near the weedbed that sticks out of the water. I only fished for just under 2 hrs, so ya caught everything cept a Crappie and a Bluey, only drilled a few holes too.

The only thing shaky about that game was the officiating. Some brutal calls. Anyway our boys won, go get em.

My better half decided she wanted to get out and do some Boxing Day shopping...not for me only had a couple of hours so decided to try Lake "X" a local pond (as BBR would say). Drilled thru 6-8" of hard black ice and set up the fishfinder...14'. Big dead minnow and a jigging I will go. Not even 4 jigs up and down and bang first Pike of the day about 20". Reset and within minutes another, then another then the best fight of the day was this largie brute. Thumped the minnow and dogged for the bottom leaving my drag a singing, once up to the hole had some trouble getting him thru. A sloid 3 lber, awesome fight on 4lbs test. Ended the day with another small pike and a perch. All fishies were released in good health. Good start to this season.

Hey good goin guys and nice start to the hardwater season eh Sleded. Glad to see yas got out for some toothy action.

Nice work again, yummy.

Nice fish, wonder if they were released? Hope they were. Anyway here's a 38" my other half caught in Nip last ice season....can you say PJ Party...lol.

Thats it I have to get out this weekend. If BBR beat me to the ice then I'm behind...lol. WTG Rich, scouting can be very educational.

If ya stayed warm and dry and the ice was good enuff to get on then you had a good day with or without fish. Keep at er they will come. Thanks for the tease.

Wow not bad for the little efforts put in. Think you are right get out a bit earlier and see what happens.

Skip the silver bullets, make that an extra large and give me all the fish and I'm in. Add a few Pepsi and Jedi will take er.

Wonder if that thing was tested on Simcoe last year when it was slushy with a crust on top. Yaaa sure it will pull itself out. I'd rather have an Argo for that price. GEEEEZ.

Tim Thomas for sure. That guy faces 25-35 shots average a nite and he pulls off some wicked saves. Thats why he's hurt right now trying to make a big save...Watched him the other nite...looked like a pulled groin....owww might be a few games off. Savard ain't no slouch either wicked assist man.

Him and the Gecko have a side deal goin on right now that involves shipments from South America. Once the mob finds out there will be a hit out on them both. Maybe a witness protection program is needed here. Pokey...? Last I heard he was down from Brokeback Mountain and in a rehab center along with Lindsay Lohan and Britney. Could he be reformed back to a heterosexual...? Wait and see.

Good luck with that....shouldn't have dumped her I guess eh!.

Chillax.

Hey Cliff, not sure if we'll get down your way again this year but generousity follows you as does good karma. You give it and it will return two-fold...or something like that...lol. Keep up the good work and say hello to Sue and Andy for us.

Atta girl, hard to beat the Crappie king on home waters, but ya can smoke em with the paddle...speakin of which if ya had a slapped him with the paddle earlier ya coulda caught more Crappies while he napped...lol.

Maybe you could try the Banjo Minnow, works for me. Grab the buggers by the throat and ring it...lol. I think you gotta be shootin an episode of AA to get em...lol.

I have the Coleman Blackcat for my portable Eskimo Quikflip hut...it will take the chill off but doesn't really warm the area well. I'm thinking of pickin up a Mr. Buddy.

Nice work Steve, gotta luv the potential the place has. I was wondering how long til you bought your fav fishin hole...lol.

I wear RAY-BAN. got em from Sears for bout $250.00 when I ordered my safety glasses for work and my everyday glasses for home they gave me a discount...can't remember how much I saved but ended up with three new pairs for less than $400.00. I luv the Ray-Bans they wrap around blocking light from the sides too. Check out what Sears has.
