  1. Awesome Dave!!!! Great report man! I hope I'll be hitting that spot in the near future Thanks for the tip on the worms! lol
  2. Sweet, I won't feel bad trying to run over the buggers while out in GBay.
  3. Nothing like getting out on the river with family Mike! Good job dude!! Water looks really nice. I'm ready to test out the new stick, lol
  4. Time to test out my buddies new .22-250!!
  5. Really looking forward to 4 days after opener to tell you the truth
  6. I think I need to add Michigan to my 'places to go and slay steel' agenda Nice report! Really nice colours on those fish.
  7. Different lines for different setups.
  8. Spent the last 6 days down in sunny Florida, soaking up the sun getting a tan and doing a bit of fishing. The weather down there this year has been pretty cold, when we landed in Florida on Tuesday it was 60 degrees The water was also extremely dirty compared to what is was the last time I was down there. None the less the oldman and I made it out to our fav spot (Honeymoon Island State Park) and tried our best. First couple of days netted us nothing but small grunts and blue runners. We did find some rocks and the oldman hooked into a few small sheephead.. These fish have some wicked teeth, used to crush the shells of their food. Keep your fingers away.. The last day of our trip and there was a good 20mph SW wind that pushed in the warmer water and the fish. We pretty much hammered ladyfish and whitings the entire day. I did get a bonus pompano and my oldman got a jack about 3-4lbs. That took a good 20 mins to bring in Along with the ladies and whitings, we picked up some spanish mackerel. I was bit off twice by something that had a lot of weight, my guess was either a big mackerel or a bonnethead shark. Caught two of them last year, but no sharks this year unfortunately. Although the warm water was nice and getting a tan was even better, I'm ready to get back to steelhead slaying.
  9. Mike, I expected nothing less from you and Ferg. Looks like an awesome couple of days. Great report man!!!
  10. Kemper, that's not a chop..
  11. We have a 55lb Powerdrive on our 15' Legend. No complaints about it at all, lasts a good 2 days on a deep cycle battery. Extremely pleased with it. The foot pedal takes some getting used to, I cheat all the time and use my hands
  12. Good luck with the bones
  13. My oldman uses the Nautilus charger from Canadian Tire on the deep cycle we have for the bowmount, works great.
  14. No offense at all man, now I know what to look out for
  15. Erik, that looks like a rainbow smolt to me... Very similar to the ones I've caught while brookie fishing in the Notty headwaters.
  16. I wouldn't have wasted it either, I was just playing devils advocate
  17. Small immature pike have vertical banding like a muskie does. I know a wackload of the ones we pull out of the French River do anyhow.
  18. I don't think it's a question of being ethical when the law clearly states that you must release any game fish caught on a set line. Dead or not, legally it should have gone back down the hole.
  19. Ride the Lightning or Whiplash.
  20. White stuff in Barrie.. Thank god I'm leaving for Florida on Tuesday!!!!
  21. Craigslist or Kijijji.ca I found one for my S10 for $120...

    NEW PB

    What a life... Spend 6 years underground, get up, don't eat a damn thing, find a bunch of women, have lots of sexy time, then die.
  23. It's going to be blown, along with every other eastern trib. Stay home.
  24. I have no issues loading the hifi version on my HTC touch. However, with the lofi, it doesn't seem that we can login and check PM's?
