  1. Hatchery fish aren't going to stand a chance if there is nothing for them to eat.. Cormorants or no cormorants. The issue here isn't the birds, it's just the most visible.
  2. I'll give 50% of the fault to the idiot who doesn't look where he's going and pulls infront of a speeding snowmobile. Let's not even mention the fact that his snowmobile was WHITE!
  3. Giant fish, did you eat it?
  4. Let's just call it an Atlantic and be done with it.
  5. Brian, I've had hooks pop only to gank them in the side. That small fish sure turns into a big fish in a hurry
  6. I think whities do all kinds of stupid stuff when they're hooked. I've had them hooked in the side of the face after jigging them up 40ft from the bottom, lol.
  7. That top fish is most likely frozen, it's also resting on the side of the table.. He's not holding it outright.
  8. We've got a winner!!!
  9. Bowfins, not snakeheads.... People confuse them all the time.
  10. I've got a couple in the side of the head, you can really tell when you can't get their heads up into the hole. There is blatant snagging (guys reefing 3ft with their wooden sticks) then the fish that circle and hit and get wrapped up.. It happens..
  11. Not very hard when you've got a big treble with a tiny perl tied on the end, let's not forget they are directly below you... What do you think will happen when you rip that thing 2ft through a school of fish? All kinds of snagging going on out there.
  12. Paul is an easy choice.
  13. You could make that fish look like 30lbs if you actually used a UWA lens wide open. Nothing wrong with that pic.
  14. .....and you end up snagging them on the side of the head. Not very uncommon out on Simcoe.. I've seen so many fish come up ass first it's not funny.
  15. Somehow I doubt they were recording much about cormorants in 1798... Did you get the date wrong? lol
  16. You and me both man, I'm itching for some ice action. I might take a drive tomorrow morning to some sneaky spots.
  17. I can't even imagine how old that fish is.
  18. Time to get the boat out for whities! lol
  19. Atlantic.
  20. Holy crap, that thing is a monster! Makes my 24in resident brownie look small
  21. I'm sure Wayne has flown over the bay recently. That being said, I doubt there is very much ice out there. If there it, it's going to be sketchy.
  22. Cormorants are in fact native to Ontario.
  23. I could use some SA Sharkskin Trout taper in 6wt.
  24. The Okuma covers are nice and big.
  25. With the way this winter is going I wouldn't worry about that too much.
