When I fish the Nip most of the time I troll a manns plus 25 deep diving lure in the chrome and blue. This seems to work along the rock walls and ledges. I am not much of a walleye fisherman though but most of the folks go out just before the mosquitos attack at dusk and use worm rigs on the edges of the weed lines that have deep water nearby.

The reason you see the P.M. me response is in the rules of the site we do not allow specific spots to be shared. In the past sharing fishing spots created more issues than it solved. I am sure that once you see the lake you will be able to talk to the locals or the owners of the lodge and they can direct you in the right direction. 

Good luck and happy fishing

At the end of the day remember this is a hobby that you enjoy don't make it into a less enjoyable job. Very nice looking bugs for sure.

That is a really nice win brother, congratulations.

Art

Very nice vise it will make your tying easier I bet. 

Art

We are glad to see you. Feel free to post a few pictures now and again of your fishing adventures.

I guess I am guilty as well, I have way to many bits, parts, and pieces of assorted metal scraps for making brackets and such. I just can't seem to throw them away. They never fit into the bucket or stand in the corn right.

When the weather blows up or someone gets hurt the 25 will get you back to the dock quicker.

very nice fish

I am sure there are better places to have this discussion than a Fishing forum. 

Thanks

Well Karma really is a good friend. After drooling over pictures of small lures for Crappie and other panfish I made a wish and Misfish sent me a care package in the mail. I am amazed at the creative mind and the talent in his hands that found a new home down here in the South. 

Thank you once again Brian for the more than generous gift and I will report how well they work after the thin ice melts and allows me to go fishing again.

Figure I better post in American for ya!!! 😜

How do you like that -60 wind chill?

I got to admit y'all have Paradise up North if only I could have Southern temperatures to enjoy up there.

IF you all take this in this direction I will lock it. There are no winners in this discussion only people complaining and making my life a little harder. 

Thanks

Here you go this has been around for 40-50 years now.

Here are a few from a little further South 

those are real pretty Brian. If you need a set of bearings and they are hard to ship to Canada let me know and I will order and repackage in the USPS route for you.

Canadian T-shirt weather.

I would call you a liar but I have seen to many crock shoe prints in the snow up North.

Here is a company that I have purchased bearings from to replace the ones in my fishing reels. They are miles ahead of what comes stock in the brand name reels we all use. They have a code that is good till December 31st.  They are not associated with OFC or myself except as a quality product.

The discount code is BALLIDAYS

Ahh the whole dramatic metric system -38 C that is only -36 F .... Personally when I inhale through my nose and my boogers freeze I'm heading back indoors. lol. 

Art

Very cool that is a game changer up North where the water is clear enough to see stuff. Down South we have way to much silt and sediment for them to be viable.

Does it mean "raping"?

Doug it is a very old saying dating back to an authors famous book from Mark Twain  " The adventures of Huck finn" It was where he conned another person into painting a fence telling them how much fun it was. He was Huckle Bucked into doing hard labor disguised  as something fun. Chubby Checker also had a song and dance called the huckle buck as well.
