  1. I had the same thing happen, with my new too me kicker, on my Boston Whaler Revenge. Slipped off the transom at 30 mph and lodged against main motor!! Managed to grab it and after getting home drilled two big holes in my transom and bolted it on!
  2. get a swing tongue kit and add the new tube material to that. You should be able to make it two to three feet longer.
  3. Sounds like a great trip. Was that a cabin rental?
  4. I had my first ever Coyote hunt yesterday out in Wingham Area, The dogs chased two coyotes around for about two hours, Eventually one came to us and we got it. While this was going on we had several locals stop by and thank us for reducing their numbers. They even pointed out new areas for us to hunt. I think i'm hooked. It was a neat way to hunt
  5. Fished that lake three years ago. Trolling for pickerel didn't really work for us. We headed up to the top end of the lake. Look for the Eagle flying around. It was very attentive to any fish you released and swooped down several times for an easy meal. Jigged for pickerel around there and did very well. Yellow and green jigs with minnows did the trick. The Diving School is very interesting to check out as well. I think the instructors name is Paul. A very nice and informative guy.
  6. We used to fish at the outflow to the Hearn Plant on Unwin Avenue. You would need to bring some heavy duty clippers with you now though as they let all the bushes grow up along the waters edge.
  7. Check out Spoonpullers.com. Loads of info for beginners and lots of chatter during the season. Hope next season is better than than this last one. Worst I've ever had in 15 years.
  8. Our guy told us there are only four operators on the Lake. His is D& D cottages and they have a facebook account. There is the Sportsman lodge, Ritchies End of Trail and there is Grey Owl cabins that has a few boat in only cabins with solar power fridges and lights.
  9. Three bedrooms. One had a double bunk beds. One had a single bunk beds and the third had two sets of single bunk beds. The two futons in the living room fold down.
  10. Boats were 50 bucks per day plus gas. He had 5 gallons for 45 bucks so bring gas! You can fish as close as the railway bridge. It's only about 600 meters from the dock. All the locals jig there in the evenings. We trolled bottom bouncers across all points and only did a little jigging.
  11. We stayed in Cottage One. It was 60 bucks per night per person. It sleeps ten to twelve, if there are two couples, or ten if just guys. Cottage has hydro. Baseboard Heat and hot water tank. Lots of hot water. Water is from lake so bring your own for coffee. Bell Express View. New screened in porch. You can leave your boat in the water at the docks. The docks are about 80 meters from the cottage in a sheltered bay. There is a fish cleaning hut with hydro so I charged my boat batteries every day. There is a general store in the small town that sells booze and beer and some other necessities. Very pricey though. You can get gas at the store and there are other guys that sell ice and worms and minnows scattered throughout the town. The owner didn't mind how many or how few stayed in the Cabin. By the end of the 9 days there were only two of us. This may be different in the spring but not sure.
  12. Just got back from Bisco. Great fishing trip. The Sultan Road was in better shape than most roads in Toronto. No issues at all driving in the 70 Km to D&D cottages. Nice cottage with Bell Express view for the one rain day we had. We trolled mostly bottom bouncers with worm harnesses and managed to land over 60 pickerel between two guys. Biggest was 18 inches and allot in the 14 to 17 inch size. Manages a few pike as well with biggest about 30 inches. Its a really big expanse of lakes up there with.many km of boating. Not our highest number of fish trips but worth a trip back. Next time we will go back in the spring and hope for more pike.
  13. Thanks for the lead.
  14. I'd like to target some Gar on the Ottawa river. Can anyone recommend a good place to camp with Gar near by? Private or Provincial Park is good enough for us. Thanks
