    let me tell you this rod is so nice, it is very sensitive and has got a nice soft action.

    so when i first got it i thought i would take it down to a local little creek just for a few drifts and to see if i could get any suckers. had a few hits all from creekchubs i ws guessing then i caught this lol

    yea lexx speaking of that i was out with a couple of first ice fishing newbies lol. at the end of the day on of them was using my little panfish popper rod he was wondering why it was taking so long to get to bottom. i told him to shut his bail maybe theres a fish on just swimming with it. right when he closed his bail the rod doubled over and almost broke lol. so with ths rod it obvisly wasnt ment for fish like this and it couldnt real it in. so i grabed the line (2 lbs test) and hand lined it, it was like pulling up a log with a few small headshakes. we got it to the hole and it just felt like it was wedged at the bottom of the ice, so while we were trying to get it head up, i took my arm out of my floater suit and was ready to try and grab "it". while i was doing this the fish decided to make one last pull and snaped the line. it was a preety big disapontment but the kid now wants to go back and try to get the fish lol.

    well today i was out on simcoe in kempenfelt bay to day. i was fishing for perch and the fish were scatterd around pretty good, i was fishing 40 FOW. so with the fish scatterd i droped down a williams jiggin spoon to try and attract some perch in to my other rig. well allmost instantly i got a few perch, then i got i better hit pulled it up and it was a herring, then droped it back down, my spoon was out of my flashers cone when it got hit hard. set the hook and the fish pulled some fair ammount of line and bent my mediam heavey rod way more then any herring, i got it on the ice and the fish was around 2 feet long and the mouth was just had a BIT more of an angle to it. so i was wondering first off if herring can get that long and from the poor discription i just gave you lol what do u think it was?? the fish was realeased because i wasnt 100% sure it was a whitie.

     

    and on another note, while i was out we saw so people catching many herring in the 15-18 inch range and keeping them!! so i gave the mnr tips line a call and i gave a discription of the men. they asked for my cell # incase any CO's were in the area. almost 5 minutes later i got a call form a CO :thumbsup_anim: . so he came on down, but by the time they got there the men had taken off. they serched the parking lot (i couldnt get a plate #) but couldnt find anyone. so they went around the ice and got a few people with no liecence and such. it was sure good to see that that mnr line acctully works and that they had a CO in the area :thumbsup_anim:

    WOW! what a great day to be on the ice. the fishing was not fast and furious but we still maneged some fairly nice size perch. i won 3rd place with a 9 inch perch lol haha.

     

    so we got up at 5:30 and tinbanger went out to grab the coffee for the day. so when he got back got the van loaded up very fast lol couldn't wait to get on the ice lol, i was hearing latly that the perch have been biting very good there latly so i was excited because ive had enough of the 6 inch perch that simcoe has been invaded by this year lol.

     

    we got to the site and imediatly talked to lexxington. got to the ramp and got all set up talked to Moe and mr. JR, and out on the lake we went. got to one spot found 45 feet of water, got the hut set up and got the rods down, almost instantly i got bit and pulled up a dink perch lol, went on with that for almost an hour, then the action slowed down. Beans came out and joined up with us for the rest of the day.

  24. Question on C&R

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    "Releasing fish caught from deep water (more than 10 metres or 30 feet) can present special problems. Cold water species such as lake trout can rapidly equalize changes in water pressure. They can usually be released successfully regardless of the depth they came from, summer or winter. Warmwater species don't have this pressure-equalizing ability. Fish such as pike and walleye therefore should be brought to the surface slowly (to allow them to adjust to the change in pressure) and then be released immediately, if possible. Fish caught from deep water can be released by allowing them to slip out of your wetted hands head first into the water, while you are in a standing position. This not only heads the fish in the right direction, but also sends a blast of oxygen through its gills."

    Hope I don't get sued for all these quotes :blush:

    this is true i have herd and seen guys ice fishing for lakers and u can see the air bubbles after they 'burp' the gas from the air blader.
