pikeie

ya they might be a little bit big. they are 4 inches across, when i check them tomrrow ill make them a little bit smaller. Thanks for the tip!

Here's my set up i only set up 4 today just to give it a shot. i can improve on the design? or should this work? there all on well established trails.

Well it's totally legal up here. And where I plan to set them, no one walks there dogs that far back. I think I gunna play it safe and set 6, considering that's the legal limit for snowshoes up here. EDIT just looked agian and in my wmu there is no limit on hares.

recently ive become interested in snaring snowshoe hares. i have not set any snares yet but i plan to soon. i was just looking through the regs online and i cant seem to find a limit on the number of snares a person with a valid small game licence can use? does anyone know? Thanks Matt

Ya we know a few of the lakes arnt open till febuary... were careful lol. Umm ya in behind Bruce Mines it was right up close to carpenter, i forget the name of the lake right now.

Went out with some friends today to a lake we never fished. We were told to try this lake by a few of my friends as they told us about the natural Lake and Brook trout in the lakes behind Echo Bay. We got to the lake by sled around 8 o'clock and hole drilled by 8:10... first hole i had my minnow stripped twice lol in 5 minutes. But of course the newby has to get the first fish... well im not counting my first fish, if u can call a 8 inch laker a fish haha. a nice 4.5-5 pound laker! i was up next with a nice speck i didnt know specks could be so stupid lol... i lost this fish twice b4 i got her all the way up. while she was comming up the hole, she decided to spit the spoon! but i wasnt gunna let her get away that easy haha i slamed my arm into the hole and got her behind the gill plates b4 she could take off haha my buds couldnt belive it lol then the invasion of 12 inch lakers haha no pictures taken but we brought home 3 fish so it wasnt to bad these lakes have so much potential i cant wait to go back!

Thanks for all the info boys! I'm sure I'll make it out there at some point this season. I think I'm gunna head south this weekend though, were thinkin of catching a few snot rockets out on ottertail!!

Really? I didn't know gas was so expensive that I had to pitch for a 5 minute drive lol... I live in the soo, pine and northern area

Did someone say wings and beer! sounds good to me!

well we didnt make it up there... we had to head south to Cloudy. There was a good 10-11 inches of black ice there, seen a bunch of fish on the flasher but they had tight lips today. My bud Cody had a good one on but lost it due to inexperience lol. i had a few mised hits, and one small 2 pounder on the ice but that was it!

Just North of Sault ste. Marie.

So my classes have been cancled this afternoon, so a few of us are plannng to head up to upper island. I was wondering how's the ice so far? And has anyone been catching lakers so far? Thanks for any help guys!

I have used that style of hook without the plastic keeper for a while. Infact the ones I use have a big barb near the eye insted. I find with these hooks u can get a hook into the roof of the mouth of a big largie much eaiser and makes them harder to loose. It has something todo with the direction of pull.

I did the same thing a few years back Snowboarding, i shatterd my wrist in three places, snaped my radius and fractured my ulna, and fractured my humerus.. was not very fun! i had 3 pins put in my wrist and was out of commision for 3 weeks before the doctors had to re-break it!! i still cringe when i think about it! and then had to deal with a full arm cast for another 6 weeks, then a forarm cast for another 2!!

Love it man! doesnt get much better then that!

I recieved a Lamson Konic for christmas last year. And it has done everything i expected and more! This year alone it handled smallies, walleye, pike, and almost a muskie lol. When i took it to the rivers i was evern more impressed! i landed well over 100 pink salmon, i dont know how many king salmon over 20 lbs and even some steelies! the drag still feels like it was straight out of the box! i would buy another in a heartbeat! and it retails well under $300

Gobys can definatly get that large. Here is what a Round Goby looks like. They are a voracious little fish. They are an invading species and are one of the biggest threats to our lakes and rivers.

So this year has been my best year for fishing by a long shot! I got to fish some places other anglers can only dream about! As most of you know i scored a wicked co op placment/ job/ amazing fishing! I got to spend my entire summer working on the famous Lake Of The Woods! i worked as a Dockhand/ Guide out of Totem Resorts/ Wiley Point. I could go on forever about this place but ill just let the pictures do the talking. well i started out being able to catch as many walleye off the dock as i wanted! and same with the pike! And even the odd muskie was caught! off the dock! If i remeber corectly there was 6 off the dock this year! Then it was on to the smallies! And a bunch of randoms! me and a guest with a 31.5" walleye my little bro with a 29" walleye his PB hers a list of my biggest fish: Walleye: 32 inches Pike: 41.5" Muskie: only a 42" Bass: 5 lbs multiple 4 plus.. crappie: my pb at just over 16" no pic tho... I have hundreds of more photos but i think that give a good summary! So then its back to school time! lucky for me i can still fish haha. i put up a little video on youtube with only a few pics taken from this year! plenty of steelies have been brought to the net! i personally have caught more steelies this year then ever before! i belive im approching 30 steelhead this fall alone! thats alot for me considering i only got 5 last year! Anyways thanks for reading i hope u enjoyed it!... I sure did!!

Well im glad to hear they finally sold the place! Congrats Lou and Joanne!

Nice fish Tyler! Those steelies ar Bea-utiful! i cant wait to get back out, im planin to hit the raps tomarrow lol!!

If i hear one more pitch for the Jackpot im gunna go crazy!

Just sayin not all of ontario has a closed spring bass season Northwestern ontario for example! bass are open there all year... well except for december 24 lol, i never understood that haha. and the bass fishing up there is still unreal! i went out plenty of days this year and nailed 50 plus smallies! but im not sayin that all of ontario should have a spring season!

Wow congrats! i was fishin some superior tribs yesterday and didnt even see any steel! i had a few missed hits. and got a few brookies on a cleo but that was it! i had to go back to the rapids today to make sure i still had it haha got to hens around 7 lbs... but those superior steelhead still seem to elude me haha

cleos work great in faster flows i find, spinners seem to work better for me in slower water. i like to keep them near bottom, so my spoons can stay down deeper just because there heavier. green silver and chartuce silver are my favs! o and when they hit, wait for that first run before you do anything haha

lol invasive??? haha no the "Dogfish" which is acctually called Bowfin, is not an invasive species... native to ontario... dont kill them for no reason
