Dude that sucks! Especially when 95% of those fish come on the chase.. I hate fishing blind, especially in 120ft of water with a wicked current, lol.

Cooks Bay on Simcoe for pike.

I didn't find much in that price range either.. We came up a few grand and there was a lot more to choose from.

Mike, I saw a very similar conversation like that as well. I wouldn't doubt we were listening to the same guys.. Was the loud mouth in a black two piece? Any chance one of your buddies was fishing out of a Clam? (Not flip over) I heard the name 'Mike' mentioned a few times, was wondering if it was you, lol.

For that kind of money I'd shop stateside. You'll get 3 times the boat for the same price. You'd be silly to drop 30k on a Smokercraft when you could get a absolutely loaded Lund for the same price in the US.

Those 4 guys south of me were running all over the place, lol! I got 3 small lakers, nothing to write home about.. I wanted to stay deeper then everyone else, but everytime I iced a fish, I seemed to get more and more company.. Finally pulled up and went a bit east of you guys to finish the day.. WAY too many guys out there for my liking.. I think I'll be fishing steelhead tomorrow.

I'm glad I could make an appearance I was fishing 100ft from you guys. Top left! LOL

What's the website for?

Doesn't matter which side of the reel the handle is on, lol.

Lots of places to escape even a few mins out of Barrie..

Fished Lake O and Lake E in a tinny for pretty much my entire childhood (16ft Smokercraft with a 25hp Johnson) No issues at all, just gotta pick your days.

So many great commercials that aren't on that list. Whoever did that list I think is a Budweiser employee, lol! One of my favs!

From a boat you definitely want something longer then shorter. I can't imagine trying to punch out big flies with my 7'6 5wt with any sort of distance, lol. It's fine for the smaller resident trout streams however.

If you are going to fish Elk, fish upstream. It was an absolute bust there yesterday.. I'd also check out a few of the Ohio tribs, especially the Conneaut. That river is awesome.

You'll want something longer for punching out those big bass baits.. A 8'6 7wt is going to be quite meaty.

Not to be rude, but fishing is a past time... You should be out pounding the pavement looking for a job if funds are that thin, not out on the lake wondering if you're buddy will give you $20 so you can get out on the lake the next day. Priorities man...

We'll be slamming the lakers and whities!!!!............................................in the spring.

Steelhead tomorrow for me, screw this crappy ice fishing season!

How much gas money does he owe you? How long of a trip is to the lake from the city? If I'm going to the lake and I want some company, my buddies are more then willing to pitch in for gas money. If it's a 15 min romp from the house and they are already traveling over an hour to get here, I don't ask for a cent.

I wouldn't advertise that, it's extremely illegal what that guy's doing

Spotted grouper is my guess.

So instead of improving the spawning habitat, they just dump a million fish a year into the rivers. I'm sure that works for a lot of people, but not for the guys that are out looking for quality fish. Most of the guys I fish with (myself included) much prefer quality over quantity. I don't we should be taking queues for our friends south of the border when it comes to fishery management.

Sweet Haliburton brookie! Good job man.

Ah ok, I knew I saw it somewhere.

Didn't Milo already post this?
