TroutnMuskieHunter

Morning Folks....I was just wondering if any OFC'ers have ever ice fished Bark, Carson, or Kamaniskeg lakes and if so, did they have any luck???

I've been to Bark Lake a few years back but the only fish we caught through the ice were Ling!!! WE fished the lake hard for 2 days and were a bit disappointed...

Geez....I guess I missed out on some fun!!!....here's one I remember very well!!!

Steve

Thanks Maureen and a Happy New Year to you and the rest of the OFC family as well!!

I also bought an F-150 with the tow package and it does have a tranny cooler...for me, it's piece of mind knowing that I have that extra cooling...

Very interesting post!!! ...I was thinking about trying to make up some Muskie spinner baits but kept getting distracted tying up trout flies.....

I now know what the next few months of my free time is going to be spent on

Are you on a septic tank system or city sewer??

Paul,

I've already "popped" a piston...even though it cost $70 to repair it...no thanks...I can put up with a bit of smoke...what I couldn't put up with was the downtime waiting for the parts to get ordered and delivered...

Sorry to hear about the passing of your Mom....our condolences to you and your family...

So...are you guys saying that my 9yr old Jiffy 30 that uses 24:1 oil/gas ratio can now use a 50:1 mixture by going to synthetic?????????

Dang it Glen ...ya had to show us that nice soft water and boat eh? ......well, all I can say is that it's not 60*F nor do we have 5 - 10mph winds here this morning...what WE DO HAVE is -18*C windchill (-0.4*F) and 44 - 67km/h winds (27 - 41mph)

Here's what I get to look at today while sitting by the warm fire dreaming about soft water season .....

Oh, and by the way, thanks for the report and some nice looking fish pics

Thanks Doug!! ....not sure when I'm going to try the recipe out but I'll definately report back when I do!!

Have you got a recipe to share with us Doug???....I'm the chef here at home and would like to try baking some bread while I'm waiting for the river to freeze up again...

we are waitting for you to show us how to catch the BEASTS troutnmuskyhunter!!!

 

word on the street is that our minnows were to small!

24/7....don't worry mon chum...I have some secret weapons in the deep freeze that will entice the BEASTS which i will share with you and the other 2 amigos.....when are we going to "paradise lake"?????

Update.... Well guys, got skunked and soaking wet yesterday afternoon with all that rain Lasted about an hour and had to get back home LOL Just wasn't meant to be
