Great pics Glen!!...hope to join you guys for next year's Lakair event

John, there is no vent cap on the gas cap as well as no filter....maybe it's the coil that's overheating...hmmm...a new mower is startin to look better an better..like one of those $149 jobs at CTC!!!

Thanks Meely!!

Hey guys....do we have any members that are good small engine mechanics with some troubleshooting skills???? I have a 6HP Murry lawnmower (Briggs & Stratton) that is all of a sudden causing me grief to the extent of me thinkin about heaving it out on the road with the GARBAGE on Monday!!! It starts with no problems, but after 5 - 10mins it shuts down....I'll wait another few minutes and she starts again for another 5 min... I've changed the oil, has fresh gas and I'm startin to get gay man*&^ Instead of 1hr of grass cutting it's takin me 2hrs and INTERFERING WITH MY FISHING TIME!!!!! Any suggestions would be apprectiated!!!

Very nice fish indeed Lew!! ....just think of what she'll weigh in at in the fall!!!

nice report....trips like that tend to stay in your mind for a lifetime....

Love the pics!!!...congrats on your 1st Muskie Maureen!!!!!

Looks like a super fun trip guys'n'gals!!!....I'm hopin' to make it out for next year!! ....someone mentioned BOQ????? is this another GTG???

Thanks everyone for the great replies!!... Reefrunner, I use the double clamp Down East Salty rod holders and just clamp them to the deck rails..

This might be what you're looking for....Crotch Lake campsites are listed in the link...the island campsites are great and you can book/reserve, on-line....Crotch has everything from Walleye, Bass, Pike, Perch, etc.... Mair is a nice lake as well...no problem with launching the boat...it is back in the bush and the campsites are boat to only...Rainbow trout and Lakers.... Govan is the furthest into the bush....again, boat to campsites only...Walleye, Pike, Bass... http://www.northfrontenacparklands.com/ind...8&Itemid=44

sounds and looks like you picked the right day to get out on Lake O...The lake sure looks nice and calm!!....nice fish!

I always use the uni-uni knot for attaching 2 lines together...backing line to main line, leader to fly line, etc....I find that the knot is very smooth after the ends are trimmed, and easily slides through the rod tip guide.

What great photos!!!....it won't be long before Ash starts walkin' and then all of a sudden he's in the boat fishing with ya....time goes by quickly.....Looks like you're enjoying every minute of bein a Dad!! ...congrats Bud!!

Hey Mike...I'll gladly take you out here on the Ottawa under one condition.....any Muskie caught in my boat cannot be used as an entry for your team

Glad to hear you got one as well....especially with your B'day Lure ....that's one of the lures that I don't have but plan on purchasing soon....BTW...HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Got that one trolling....95% of my skie hunting is trolling...I find i can cover more area at 5-6mph than casting here and there...besides, the river is really high still and the weed shoals are still submerged..

The Muskie season here on the Ottawa River this weekend couldn't come quick enough!!!...I fished my butt off on Friday and Saturday with no luck....this morning I looked out at the river and thought, hmmmm a nice chop on the water and it's overcast with the odd sunny period...so off I went again with a bit more confidence... Only took 1hr this morning to take the pressure off my back and the constant thinkin inside my head of "yur gonna get skunked Steve...yur gonna get skunked"... Anyhow, caught this beauty 49"x23" girl and what a nice way to start the season!!

I'm on the stretch of river after the Fitzroy Harbour dam.... Here's the last Muskie I landed last fall...I'm hoping to catch one a tad bigger so I can change my avatar!! I CAN HARDLY WAIT....3 MORE SLEEPS!!!

viva Italia

I can't sleep, I'm so pumped for the Muskie opener this Friday on the Ottawa .....it seems as though it's taking forever for the day to get here!!!

Nice pic....beauty colors on that brookie

Really nice report Lew...4 muskies...gotta love it!!

Great report Cliff and nice pics!!

Just the look on his face tells it all...I'm very sorry to hear about your best buddy..I went through the same thing a few years back...

Nice fish guys and great report....
