I literally only need to be able to walk out 30 meters infront of my place and i'm golden....saying my prayers and taking my vitamins every night! 3 inches is all we need!

ive always got time for a good photoshop well done

Iron its difficult for me to feel any sympathy for them when they rob, threaten and place my family in danger... yes manitou its unfortunate, but i draw the line when i become a victim of your choices in life. in 5 months, my car was broken into, my gym locker had the lock cut off of it, my car had the catalytic converter stolen off of it, and finally I was verbally threatened with physical harm in my own home... Iron...yes there is evidence of it in every city, i live in Toronto and see it every day, but the magnitude is multiplied by about 100x in the down town east side, you literally need to see it to believe it.

docs are writing methadone and fentynol scripts for the profit. No one actually does heroine anymore its too hard to get. Heres my small rant thats a bit off topic, but after living in the down town east side for 5 months ill explain where your tax dollars are being spent, we all have the right to know. The purpose of safe injection sites is to provide users with a clean safe supervised environment to inject drugs. Hypothetically the most important part of these injection sites is to actually protect the general public. The junkies can kill themselves all they want, its the public that is truly at danger due to discarded dirty needles littering the streets and disease running rampant through that community. Like most government run programs though, its a total farce and has actually put the public at more danger. I would argue that you would be better off letting the junkies use dirty needles and subsequently die from disease. Here is why. What is advertised as a community safety project, literally has the complete opposite effect because the junkies are able to attain the "contraband/tools" in an "Injection Package" free of charge and then subsequently leave the facility. Ill make this very clear, this is not a "clean needles program" this is a full blown program where Needles, Cups to cook product, tourniquettes, cotton swabs and alcohol patches are provided to users. You literally are effectively enabling drug users....does a heroine junky need to be provided with a rubber band to make sure the drug works effectively? You tell me? Effectively the only people being protected by this program are the users themeslves, the general public suffers because now the streets of the DTES are completely littered with contraband including used needles. You literally have to see it to believe it, but I did not go one day living there without finding at least 1 used syringe litering the ground at the local park, the sidewalk, the storefront or any other common area where children would frequent. Let me make this very straigt forward, when i say this isnt me going out into back alleys looking for used needles, this is me taking my dog for a walk to the park down a main road and stumbling across used syringe after used syringe. Specifically the worst instances were 1. Going to the local playground/dogpark subsequently stumbling across the waste of an "injection package" including all packaging, tools and used needles. Stopping to call the local "needle hotline" witnessing a 4 year old child run directly towards said pile of used needles, me yelling at the childs parents to stop him and physically stopping the stranger's child from subsequently walking directly over a pile of used needles. 2. walking to work on one morning to literally find a pile of 20 used needles and the full blown "injection kits" littered literally across the entire sidewalk to the effect that I had to j walk to the other side of the road because the sidewalk was not passable. (remember this is on a main drag through downtown) 3. Walking through the main tourist area of gas town to stumble across a passed out user with used needles strung on the ground, with a injection needle still stuck in his arm and subsequently bleeding all over the sidewalk with a pile of vomit. You can imagine attempting to walk my poor dog through this environment on a daily basis. Its pretty much a miracle that he was never stuck by a used needle due to his curious nature. I have many more stories including being verbally threatened at 3am by a heroine dealer on my front door step. needless to say, as much as my life being totally thrown into shambles this past year...Leaving that situation and that environment was one of the most important things mentally I have ever done in my entire life. sorry for hijacking the thread jimmer but a good rant about this program is somewhat suitable for this thread, but making people aware of this total farce of a program is important. Clean injection sites are supposed to have a purpose in protecting the non users in the community but they are completely failing due to typical Bull which allows these guys to have no rules and attain free contraband. isnt socialism grand?

Go to vancouver, the government hooks everyone up on you and me

calling a spade a spade amazing how a 1 photo fishing report has now easily gotten more replies than all of manitou's 15 reports combined in 1 day. And way way more than my report where I had 20+ photos and that took me 5 hours to make. Lets get back to fishing people.

Pleasant cove resort does both...although things have changed the last couple of years so maybe worth the research.

Great response reel, we should all be practicing catching fish Ill just leave this here AKRISONER, on 24 Oct 2016 - 12:39 PM, said:

here I am excited because i see minus 10 in the forecast. Joey, I hope for your sake you can get out! be careful! Brian where are you getting your info? everything i see says otherwise?

seriously? No one here was watching the TFC game?

that is insane i spend a lot of time fishing smallies and have yet to run into a fish even close to 7...i guess im just fishing the wrong water lol

theres many of us in this group...but as long as guys are fishing within the law more power to them. I will say that there is a reason limits are so high in the kawarthas. A pike limit on GB is 2 fish.

im predicting the 17th as the first saturday...next weekend i think is just a bit too soon. Long range looks great though, 1 week of cold to get the ice going and another to solidify it and it will be ready for a stroll.

this guy taking my fishing and putting it to shame. You are absolutely killing 3 of the species that i absolutely love to chase. unreal. What was the weight on that one absolutely slob smallie?

same as everything else basically, just altered slightly dependent on scenario on my 500 series reel for walleye, pike and anything else swimming 15lb pp ice braid - Uni Knot - 17lb flurocarbon leader (too many 5lb+ pikes on GB) for laketrout 1000 series reel, regular PP with a 10 lb fluro carbon leader. if you are getting too much line twist...throw in a raven xxxs swivel instead of the uni knot.

bunk, your report about this mythical lake makes me almost as close to being there as I can be without ever actually going. It also reminds me a lot of home, a place where the lakes dont have cottages or boats in the background, just you the water and some willing fishies. Some day I too will venture back home and do much the same, but only I can hope to have half the success you had on this trip. Thanks for the write up.

the plan is working pretty well thus far. three of the top five rookie scoring and goal leaders are leafs Remember mathews is doing this playing with brown!

Pointe Au Baril dunno whos renting cottages, but the ice fishing is good...you will need sleds

ok now it makes sense! turbo jealousy all around.

make sure you check inventory before heading out!

james the reason im bringing up sienna's is because they a solid cheap reel with one of the biggest line capacities of any 1000 series reel. Perfect for lakers...i picked two up on sale for 20 bucks a pop a couple weeks back. Obviously you can go more expensive, but even if you blow one up (I have)...whats 20 bucks? The drag system in them is as good as any 100-200 dollar reel. Trust me i had a pike with a 20+ inch girth take my line for a ride across the entire lake last year and the thing performed flawlessly. I think some of the laker chasers will agree as well. You arent casting the things, so a good drag system is everything.

took a quick glance over this...am i confused, or did you guys end up exploring any unfished lakes or not? it seems like you spent all your time in the two camps? maybe i need to read more thoroughly

in contrary format i spent 8 days hitting eyes a couple weeks back on GB and we boated over 200 fish...id trade every last one of em to catch that goliath. That is what you call a friggin donkey. That might be the biggest eye ive seen a photo of and definitely the biggest one ive seen around these forums.
