Definitely miss your reports....even with the salt they're still great!

Great video...some nice bass there for sure

Congrats Chad! A friend of mine and his wife actually eloped to the Couples Resort....and absolutely raved about it. They have much higher standards than me, so I figure it has to be pretty good

My boat and trailer are small enough I just drag the trailer over to the hitch

Not a bad way to spend a day in this gorgeous weather. Is a 30" considered a big one for Mitchell?

The upside down spinning reel definitely gets me! An annoyance that comes to mind is when I get a hit, or sometimes have even had the fish on for a few seconds, and my buddy tells me that it was weeds. Honestly. I'm a calm, patient guy. But telling me that what I know was a fish, was really weeds? That's called lighting the fuse

Did it come with any musky recipes attached? I've heard of them for sure....never seen one. Looking forward to a report on this when musky season opens

"his post is pretty DAMNING" Most delicious pun of the day

Fantastic stuff! Definitely the better plan

Great day! Definitely have your hands full when they get over the 10lb mark

Ahhhhhh I can now be at peace with the end of icefishing this season. I have read Moosebunk's report

Don't hone it too much, Doc...might lose it altogether.

Oh absolutely! Totally agree with you there.

I initially balked at the price of PowerPro when it first came out....but after one spool lasted me 5 or 6 years, I actually felt like I got some good value out of it.

Lots of cool clips alongside that one. Never knew that there was a 12yr old out there as well...somebody's daddy got a nasty lecture that night I'm sure

Nobody bringing a nice double bladed white spinnerbait anymore?

Looks like 1000 Islands dressing from here....not a bad idea

Today is the last day Peter from CBFB is posting reports....he officially deems the ice unsafe after this. Also hearing of more guys being rescued today.

I can think of a few ponds to use that gear on I'll bring miy 7-8 and give it an honest go

Well I tell you what.....you get me a bigger boat and I'll catch your fish....and gut'em for free

Eleven hundred men went into the water.....only 316 come out

Phil you are studying these pics WAY too closely!! :lol:

Wow....that guy on Tube Lake didn't have much time left for sure.

Happy Birthday Jack!!! :)

Came across this while looking for more coverage on today's Simcoe story....what an incredible read! Kids rescue each other after crashing through lake ice 08/03/2012 9:05:44 PM ctvbc.ca B.C. Mounties are applauding a group of Lake Country children for their bravery when they worked together to avoid death after breaking through the ice on a frozen lake. Twelve-year-old Jordan Funk was playing with his friends Bethany McIsaac and Brittney Herriot on frozen Wood Lake last month when the ice broke under his weight and he plunged into the frigid water. He was unable to pull himself out and began to fear the worst. "I might die. I'm scared, I'm cold, my toes are frozen. I couldn't really move my legs," he said Thursday. His friends quickly rushed to help. "When we realized he fell through we ran over there as fast as we could and started tugging on him," 12-year-old Brittney said. "But then I moved to the side and I stepped on the thin ice by accident and I went ‘kerplunk,'" 11-year-old Bethany added. Her arm was in a sling at the time and she was struggling to stay afloat. Only Brittney, the smallest of the three, was left standing on the ice. That's when Jordan decided to sacrifice himself. He dove under water to push Bethany from underneath, and he and Brittney were able to get her out. "I think he was really brave to do that," Brittney said. "He could have died," Bethany added. Jordan was still trapped, but little Brittney managed to pull him out far enough that he was able to get himself out of the water. Police say Jordan's "selfless" act saved Bethany's life and Brittney's actions were crucial to getting the young hero out of harm's way. The children's parents say they're disappointed that the kids were out on the ice in the first place, but pleased with how they acted after finding themselves in a deadly bind. "Ultimately I would like to focus on the fact that they did exercise unselfishness and try to help each other," Bethany's mother Yvonne McIsaac said. Brittney's father James Herriot said he's proud of the young girl. "She's very brave. Brittney is the type of person that just kind of leaps to people's aid before she thinks," he said. As for the three survivors, they say they've learned their lesson and won't go out on the ice again. With a report from CTV British Columbia's Kent Molgat
