sigalon F.... I been using that line for years. That stopped last week when my main line broke like 5 times. I don't know if the line was bad / old or if i left it out on the sun to much? no idea and not going to guess. I even pulled out descent amount of mainline and tied back every thing but still... Never had that issue before. Now I'm going to try sigalon v 10lb with 6lb tippet.

Looks like a brown at 1st but... I have not seen a brown with a sharp cut nose like that. Almost a angle on top of the nose. Most brown male should have a orange color. But since this one is little odd... So did a sort little search. Guess what? It's not a brown. http://www.miramichisalmon.net/fishing.html Image from that site. "Fall Atlantic salmon are far different in appearance than the summer salmon as they are a little darker, having red and orange spots." I hope there were no "Atlantic salmon" that was keep by people that thought it was a brown. Edit: Nice that you chought a Atlantic salmon... but to bad about the keeping part. The moral of the story... If you don't know what it is, don't kill it?

Nice tuna! But why are you hugging the fish? I would have my hands around the girls!

very nice fish! I can't wait to go out! I am feeling the rush, thanks for the pics!

I wonder if that muskie survived after that... Won't be surprised if the trout got stuck.

Virus, DO NOT GO TO THAT LINK! DO NOT GO TO THAT LINK! Virus edit : nvm the link is gone

I'm self-professed steelhead noob! And I catch few steelhead when the other experts catch 10+! I don't mind the others telling me what to use or do. I think that ego is the biggest down fall of all fisherman. That and marriage.

Thank you! Can't wait to go out again! Waiting for snow and more water!

Sorry, I vote pike! No hard feelings I hope! Since I'm right! <joke btw>

Not just with a steels few other fish will see the net and will give a good run. If the fish didn't care for the net we woundn't care if the net guy tried to net the tail 1st. Edit: but I'm sure if the fish would be spooked by the net, it would be spooked by the guy with the net too...

Same. What do you do with it? other then eating and giveing it to other? I have yet took a brown. (seen alot) BTW> I was told that if the egg are lose you can kinda milk a small bit out and the trout will live. And then again few other people told me that is wrong and bit my head off saying that it will kill it, and I should (if eggs are needed take the fish alltogetter) keep it... Can some one tell me what is right? I don't like to take a brown home, sorry I really don't like to kill or clean + eat them.

I won't mine a net like that. Then again I'm to lazy to carry a net... so, nvm. Would be neat to know if that net will make a difference in spooking the fish or not.

Pictures of few steels I got few weeks ago. Been doing good... Not as good as last year but still good. I guess it's time war. Some times I find a good hole with few right in there but due to the lack of water + gin clear water, they will not bite unless I fish really early.

Pike eating a brown trout. Very cool, kinda reminds me of river X. I was told some people kill any pike they catch there due to the number of brown they eat. Not a good thing to kill them... I guess that was not taken in Canada is it? England?

Wow nice brown! I see a few hiding below the banks, very hard to get the fly drift to them. Tried every thing to get them bite. No luck yet. Maybe when there are more water.

a Doe! a deer~ a female deer~! nice pic~! Sorry for some odd reason that is stuck in my mind as I see this, even if it is not a doe... It must be sound of music thingy...

Just wondering how I would start hunting? I got the time table for the hunting + gun lisence from bass pro shop. And will take the corse asap. But I'm wondering how some one with no family hunting exp get into it? is there a hunting club? Didn't mean to hyject the topic. I didn't want to make a new post and this seem like a good idea to ask.

It was nice to meet ppl! The white puppy was adorable... Made me want to get a new pup. I hope to see you all again on other clean up/egg collection or what ever.

Great idea, give your son a small butterfly net and you can lift the stones! will be even better then fishing... How ever I do remamber my father useing the frogs I chought long time ago when I was a kid and useing it for a bait... T_T

Right! show us the pictures of the lovely brookies when ever you can.

Chatham? Nice I used to live there! Btw raining here in mississauga. I guess this is good for all the salmon fishers

I know, It doesn't look like a channel catfish to me. If that was a Bullhead then that would of killed the old record.

They could of killed the lamperay eels, called them and tell them to reconsider their terrorist ways to another.

More water then where I fished! Strong kid! And good for you for getting him into fishing! you will have a outdoor partner for a long time now!

That would make more sense since then Carp will be only affected since them being bottom feeders who happens to feed off plants also. But if that is the case you can just find the areas that had weed controlled and see if that areas had the same carp kills... And if the carp died due to feeding off it I'm sure the toxic report would of found it? <do they have that for fish?> The carp kills where too isolated. It's can't be any sort of pollution, or bacteria. No idea what happened but I'm sure that it will happen again if it was natural.
