I would imagine the length of the honey do list is why he disappeared in the first place!

Thanks Mike. That's not much different than how I like to fish walleye.

Hey, I wanna give this a try. How do you guys fish them, on a jig?

This article is a great read on why she is just s Harper puppet who will carry on more of the same: http://www.straight.com/news/470581/reasonable-doubt-why-rona-ambrose-outraged-medical-marijuana-ruling They ignore science they don't like, while making statements of belief as if they were fact. Luckily we have a Supreme Court to protect us from these buffoons.

I could be wrong but I think if you aren't fishing when you use the laser, then you put away the laser and start fishing, you might be okay.

Not sure where North Korea comes into play.... However it feeds into my point. Let people take care of their own neighborhood. The USA can't afford to be everywhere. There going to lose the economic war because they're to dumb to see they're being bled dry. And I didn't say Obama is any good, just the other guys are much, much worse.

We need to get out of Syria. There are five million soldiers on the ground over there (Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia and the rest of our "allies "). If ISIS is so bad (and believe me, I think they are the worst), how about we let their neighbors clean up the Arab street? Why are we fighting across the ocean and they won't fight next door?

I stopped reading there. The GOP are the biggest collection of half-wits the world has ever seen. Unlike Obama, they actually WANT war. They work for the machine and the machine wants to sell weapons. They're also mostly fundamentalist Christians and they believe these are end times. They're going to heaven so what do they have to lose? If they get in, they'll start it. Mark my words.

That's a great idea!

PM me. I have one spot I have to hold back because I promised to and that's how I got it in the first place! I'm there tomorrow. I gave Shayne two spots, one is popular and not a huge secret but does have fish. The other is one I've never tried but have wanted to. It's possible I'd head to one of them on Saturday.

PM replied. Let me know if/when you're headed up. Maybe we can meet up.

A couple of people have made comments like they might actually know these spots :[ If you PM me where you think it is and you're right, I'll confirm and maybe we can go one night. How old is your Son?

Great looking fish! I never fish trout..... That may have to change.

It depends on which spot I'm at. If low current, 3/8 to 5/8, if more current then 5/8 to 3/4. Truth be told most of those fish were caught on a red Gamakatsu octopus hook, split shot and minnow under a float. One of my spots has a pier and I'll take the float off and "walk the dog" up and down too. I don't use anything other than minnows this time of year.

Shoot, I wish I could be there every night!. The gas bill is killing me though (it's 90 minutes each way)!

No, I don't even know if there's burbot in these lakes. My fav spot tends to have bigger fish in the fall than spring, and less fishermen to boot.

Thanks all. I'll be back out there again Tuesday night. I can't wait!

I do not! Well, rarely anyways. I have to once in a while so people don't start thinking I'm a vampire

I know, I know, a thread from Dutch? Who would have thought..... I just created a photobucket account and have to experiment on you guys! Seriously, though. I love this time of year! My boat is new (to me) and I don't have a survival suit, so I put her to bed for winter: Luckily, I don't need a boat to catch walleye this time of year DISCLAIMER: I am very aware of regs, and would never break them. Instead of explaining if every picture of fish or a stringer was legal, let me say right now YES. We had some very slow days to start off but I think we were just over-eager and started too early. They've really been "on" lately - except for last night but that's another story The "supermoon" over my favorite lake: The fish we caught early on were fairly skinny. You'll see a difference in some of the later fish. A true (one man) double header. This blew my mind, I was using a pickerel rig and fighting in a fish. Suddenly there was a big weight, but no real fight anymore. I shined my light and I thought there was a walleye following the fish I was fighting (it all happened so fast). When it was all over, I could not believe what I saw in the net! We get fish like this all the time: That's my bro in law. Our kids are now 12 and love to come with us, even at night, in the cold, in the rain etc they're loving it. The smiles are priceless! Nephew with a huge smile (some spot hiding necessary!): My Son caught a whopper last weekend! A true five-pounder, trust me the picture does not do it justice! He caught 9 of our total 23 fish for the night, and hasn't let me live it down since It was so worth the razzing though, he asks me every other day when I can take him again It's nice that there's a place to make a fire, this time of year it really makes a difference. Luckily I get free junk pallets from work so I have all the firewood I need, I just have to carry it out there. Which sucks. But whatever! It's 98% walleye at my spots but occasionally we get an outlier (sorry for the focus, night pics aren't always easy to take): Sunday two weeks ago, and Saturday last weekend were two of the best days I've had in a while. Due to darkness and weather (and the fact the fish didn't stop biting), we didn't take pics of each fish, but this will give you an idea of how they are fattening up! This is what we kept Sunday two weeks ago (many more were released). Note the giant Musky bite on the one walleye! I missed it in the dark until I got home. I would have let him go if I'd seen it. The fillet's were pretty chewed up and gross. And this was last Saturday in the crazy wind and driving rain. It was a wild night! Last night, I was sure they'd be on. Famous last words. I got a 19" at my first spot, and a 12" at my second. Sloooooow..... It's been a great fall already and I still have two weeks until close at my spots. Someone told me yesterday about a shore spot on Quinte, so I may just extend my season after Nov. 15! I've never shore fished Quinte so I might post on the board when I'm headed and see who will be in the area. Good luck out there guys. Dutch

Art, you guys do a great job of it and that's a big part of why this place is a community and not like a lot of other internet forums. Thanks for that. I've said my piece in this thread, probably more than my fair share. Anything to be gained will have been gained by now. I'm going to bow out. Thanks for a lively discussion guys. Dutch

Mike, this isn't "stuff on the net". This is a professor of medicine at UCLA publishing findings in the Journal of American Medicine(1st quote) and Annals of the American Thoracic Society (2nd quote). Are you seriously saying he isn't credible????

It's usually hypothermia that gets you this time of year.

Old Man, I'm going to refer you to Dr. Donald Tashkin, Professor of Medicine at UCLA. He studied 5,000 subjects for 20 years. His study found no increased cancer risk in light to moderate users. Take his word for it: "We expected that we would find that a history of heavy marijuana use--more than 500 to 1,000 uses--would increase the risk of cancer from several years to decades after exposure to marijuana," explains physician Donald Tashkin of the University of California, Los Angeles, and lead researcher on the project. But looking at residents of Los Angeles County, the scientists found that even those who smoked more than 20,000 joints in their life did not have an increased risk of lung cancer." Even clearer on weed versus tobacco: "Regular smoking of marijuana by itself causes visible and microscopic injury to the large airways that is consistently associated with an increased likelihood of symptoms of chronic bronchitis that subside after cessation of use. On the other hand, habitual use of marijuana alone does not appear to lead to significant abnormalities in lung function when assessed either cross-sectionally or longitudinally, except for possible increases in lung volumes and modest increases in airway resistance of unclear clinical significance. Therefore, no clear link to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease has been established. Although marijuana smoke contains a number of carcinogens and cocarcinogens, findings from a limited number of well-designed epidemiological studies do not suggest an increased risk for the development of either lung or upper airway cancer from light or moderate use, although evidence is mixed concerning possible carcinogenic risks of heavy, long-term use. Although regular marijuana smoking leads to bronchial epithelial ciliary loss and impairs the microbicidal function of alveolar macrophages, evidence is inconclusive regarding possible associated risks for lower respiratory tract infection. Several case reports have implicated marijuana smoking as an etiologic factor in pneumothorax/pneumomediastinum and bullous lung disease, although evidence of a possible causal link from epidemiologic studies is lacking. In summary, the accumulated weight of evidence implies far lower risks for pulmonary complications of even regular heavy use of marijuana compared with the grave pulmonary consequences of tobacco.

Ain't chemistry grand??? Lol okay I don't want to get this thread locked. I think the point is made and I'm moving on from lacing weed, opiates and chemistry!

So is what I described possible or is there another way? Trust me, I'm not trying to learn how! Just curious since its part of the discussion....
