Sweet!!! A few blocks away

Nice fish guys! They were definitely on fire yesterday, that's for sure.

Awesome tips Garry!

Kicker sounds like the simplest solution if you ask me. If the only thing the big motor doesn't do well is troll, I wouldn't replace it just to fix that single issue.

If I could use one word to describe the fishing I had this morning it would be insanity. I've never had fishing like this in Lake O before... maybe chaos would be better, lol. A new fishing buddy of mine dropped me an email lastnight and said we should hit Lake O bright and early.. I'm not one to refuse, so I met him down at the ramp at 5am and we were in the water at 5:15.. As soon as the first rigger was set and we were about to sit back and relax all hell broke loose. Double/triple headers... Rods being left in the rod holders with fish on them while we brought others in, it was freaking awesome! We almost had the ultra Grand Slam today.. Chinook, Coho and Atlantic Salmon along with Lake, Rainbow and Brown trout.. Only missed out on the Atlantic and I lost a Laker so close to the boat because I was horsing the damn thing in I'll call it a catch, lol. Justin landed the fattest brown I've ever seen, 13-14lbs, just a monster. We also both landed some nice Coho's, I think his was the biggest at 10-12lbs.. A couple of bows in the 10lb range and more Chinooks then you can imagine. Being conservative we boated easily 30 fish this morning and unhooked/lost a good 15-20. Big Chinook of the day came in at 28.5lbs, I was lucky enough to pick up the rod when it went off I got another one at 23 and Justin landed a 26.5lb beaut. We lost a monster as we were setting up, this thing ate the spoon on the drop then went airborne! We were laughing like crazy as Justin tried to gain line on it but it was to lake. It jumped a good half a dozen times and that was it.. Big big fish.. Onto the pics! Justin has some great ones with his camera, once he emails them to me I'll update the thread!!

I'm allergic to fish and use surgical gloves anytime I need to fillet a fish...

Good job at letting the dog out lady, if you wanna blame anyone blame yourself. And people think deer are harmless, lol.

I caught a 40incher a few weeks ago that had nothing but the leader in it's mouth

Dan's buying fuel from the rez!!! lol

I absolutely hate canoes.. I'm not a small person either (6'3, 250lbs) and I LOVE fishing out of a Sportspal. If I had to fish out of one canoe, a Sportspal it would be.

lol, $5.00. That's awesome lew.

Patrick, you're a few days late bud

John, shouldn't have a problem nailing any kind of panfish if there are a tonne of bugs around either. I actually nailed a whitefish on a dryfly on my recent fly-in trip!! I'm sure all you guys will love the report once Mike posts it up.

Lots of mentally ill people out there, this guy is one of them.

For the new guys (like I once was) best way to get your confidence up is to fish in the evenings.. Should still be able to get into some pretty good hatches.. Go to your fav local trout stream, match the hatch and have fun.

Not much happened over my way

Not much here in Barrie, a bit of rain, a bit of wind and that's about it.

Ziplock bags work great.

Dave, that's a wicked looking reel seat!!!

Looks like the southern shore was insane like my buddy said, they went something like 40 for 50 on Sat, lol. Nice to see mostly salmon strung up and only a few bows!! Gotta release those steelies!

I gotta fish that river

You're an idiot.

What are ya doing out in that boat with those two old oars?

Man, there would have been some ass kicking done once I got back to shore. Absolutely no excuse for Bull like that.

Cliff, I demand we spend some more time steelheading this fall Nice to see you pop in and say hello bud.
