d'oh!

you're teasing us!!! Lets see the Lunge!!

there goes that guys spot.......... too bad.

Beautiful muskies!! Truly incredible, fil. Thanks for sharing and congrats on your success.

Congrats on a great year!! Looks like the new boat got a workout - lots of different lakes and great multi-species action. Well done!

Incredible... not much else to say... other then you should have a camera crew following you around

Very nice. Hardcore fishing at its finest and some great rewards. Congrats.

I have a couple of the LE ice rods, good jigging sticks. I use a Med. for walleye and a MH for lakers. They are short, so be ready for that. My fav. Croix ice rod is my Med. Avid series that I jig for walleye with. Sure wish they still made Avid series ice rods. You can't go wrong with a Croix though, IMO.

Awesome buddy!! You're getting to be a regular on TV. Good call on the swim-baits... very, very cool!!

That's a really great carving Luc!! And your trappers cabin is sweeeet!!

Thanks for the report David. You guys did very well... beautiful walleye!!

There was an article recently in OOD about shed 'hunting' and it provided the laws regarding possession. I'm pretty sure if you find the sheds, you can possess as many as you want, but there are laws about giving them away and/or selling them.

Very nice gators!! Great photo's of them too. That's a mint looking bait you've got hanging out of that one's yap.

Awesome pictures, fish and story to go with them... as always, Mike.

Nicely done!! I've always wanted to have a follow while reeling in from trolling... must have been really cool, especially since she hit you.

Better to get that stuff fixed up now so we can fish muskies and walleye ASAP!!

Great report, love the video!! You steelheaders are all slightly crazy!! lol

That's a great reward for doing well in school... congratulations for that and for your fishing success. I've fished with Steve before myself, he's a great guy and he'll put you fish too.

I have the Simms G3 jacket and it's bullet proof. Best piece of outerwear I've every owned. Pricey, however.

Nicely done!! Looks like a great way to cap off your bass season. Great report, thanks for putting it up.

What about the muskies? Any love?

Fantastic Pike, Jay. Looking forward to fishing with you some time in the future.

Bass should be open year-round in all of Ontario as the are here in NW Ontario.

Here's my winter vehicle and part time housing.

Sled is an 03 Ski-doo Grand Touring 600. Love it!! As for the fish trap... I wish I got an Otter. I beat the crap out of that hut last year with 60+ days of ice fishing. The tent material is okay, but the runners were destroyed and the sled itself even cracked. The sled is too shallow for the conditions up here. Oh yeah, and the cover was completely destroyed. haha. That auger isn't mine, I'm getting a 10" Eskimo for this season.

I bought the Hbird 45 last winter and I really enjoy having it. But I believe I would enjoy any of them. Even if the fish don't hit, the chase is very entertaining and helps pass the time on slow days. It also shows how the fish react to your lure so you can change up if they fail to bite. That in itself is worth the money. The narrow beam is certainly stronger for deeper water but falls short of the Vexlar and the Marcum. After 80 fow only large spoons and heavy jigging lures(Raps a Badboys) will show on the screen. Small lures and soft lures(tubes) do not show making it hard to play the fish into a hit. I have used the lowest Vex (fl-8?)a few times and it is very sensitive and has a strong signal well past 100 fow. The variable zoom is great but I do only use it down at the bottom. I did catch more fish with it but if I was to buy again it wouldn't be a Hbird.

did you remove the support cable? I've marked my swivel in 60 FOW with my 45. If you're not marking your bait, it's not the unit's fault... it's set up wrong. Also make sure the transducer is below the bottom of the ice.

If you do get a Hbird... I forgot to mention... DO NOT attach the 'support cable' to the transducer!! This cable is included to avoid patent infringement issues with Vexilar. Basically, the way the support cable attaches, it often causes the transducer to hang 'off-centre' or not level and will cause issues with reading bottom and seeing your lure on the display.
