Bernier was calm, cool and collected lastnight. He definitely stole that one for the Leafs.. Nice to see the boys turn it around a bit in the 2nd and 3rd periods with some offense.

Finally a bit of offense in the 2nd period. Dion can't clear the puck out of his own end if his life depended on it, lol!

Man,this chick sucks at singing the anthem (both of them) in Philly.

Sounds like they swindled you into that job, lol!

'They' don't seem very bright.

You better believe it!

Hi, I'm posting this from my super smooth Dell XPS laptop, while watching my Panasonic Viera Plasma TV. I just had some fantastic soft tacos from Taco Bell, which I drove to in my fabulous VW TDI.

Is there any chance of getting on the Walmart Pro Staff? I really want one of those 6ft white shark rods. I'd clean up with that and a pack of marshmellows.

What are the proposed changes?

PROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO STAFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

20g for birds and the 12g as well. Still way too many leaves up on the trees for us to go out. Need some cool weather so those leaves will drop!

Right now the shad are running, if your lake has them, find an inflow with some current. The bass won't be far behind. We've been slamming them in 40-50ft of water suspended anywhere from 15-20ft down with vertical presentations.. Gotta find the bait balls but once you do hold on.. Was out again lastnight and put a few cows in the boat with a lot of smaller fish in the mix as well. Electronics are an absolute necessity when it comes to this type of fishing. If you don't have electronics then look for fish actively feeding on the surface. Once you do, you'll want to run something like a Rapala DT10/14/20 in that area. Casting open water when the smallies are feeding on baitfish below can be a riot. Flutter spoons would be another option as well.

Parros just got knocked out cold (by the ice that is)

Mike those pictures are out of this world... Absolutely stunning!!!!! You might need to teach me a few of your secrets!

Love the Massassauga area, especially this time of year. Zero boat traffic, great fishing and awesome views.. Fish are definitely putting the feedbag on!

Fall is the time to buy used. Check stateside, way more bang for the buck.

Drew, that is one big girl!

Sure they do, Navionics Gold+, G2 Vision bluecharts, etc etc.

We stumbled on the frog pattern by accident, I didn't think the topwater bite was going to be happening either, but the fish told us different I guess. Had to be right uptight on the bank or it was a no go.. If the frog landed 3ft away, they wouldn't touch it. On another lake I fish we've been slamming big smallies vertical jigging icefishing spoons. Find the giant shad schools and you'll find the bass..

Probably dirty. A good dunk in some clean water will fix it right up.

Tough lesson to learn, lol. You wonder why you never see reports from me on this river. Too many lurkers.

Had a great day out on the water with the oldman yesterday as well. Fish were absolutely destroying frogs, once the sun got high they sunk a bit deeper and slow rolling spinnerbaits off the deeper edges was the ticket. Gotta love the fall! Zero boat traffic and crazy fishing! That Pro-V is a nice rig!

Rich, I think he's talking about the twist on his spinning reel, not a centerpin.

It's a specific type of reel for a specific type of fishing. Trying to compare it to a spinning reel doesn't make any sense.
