Lake white fish and Tulibee, what's your go to lure or bait

All the fish on livescope were within 2 feet of bottom in 18FOW , they would come in bunches and as soon as I started jigging the 1in long russian spoon they would get supper active but wouldn't bite will have to tie up some flys and try those. I was able to catch 2 but had multiple schools over the course of the day. Thanks. -
Not totally skunked unless you saw no fish on camera or sonar .IF that was the case then you've succeeded in joining my club welcome home you'll never be left alone.

Ive missed getting the long rods out for some surf fishing nothing like watching 4 rods go off at the same time and never knowing what will be on anyone of them

I have the go pro 4 not sure if it has image stabilization, not sure it would help, my setter is pretty strung out but i'm going to look it up anyway thanks

Glad its fixed, I'll only add Tips are measured in 64's of an inch beg borrow or buy a diameter gauge that has holes in it to measure diameters in 64's of an inch. slide it over end of rod what ever one just fits over is your tip size. 4/64 is a size 4 tip etc. in between buy 1 size bigger. lots of suppliers but one i use is MUDHOLE.

hope it works out for you Doug!

Yes the prairies can have a very magical pull on the soul, whether its the un impeded vistas or the strength of the weather systems I can't explain it! However when I come back into the trees of Ont., there are times when I get a sense of claustrophobia. I also find family histories very interesting!- 26 replies

My only other experience on this river was a 1 hour stopover last year underneath the hwy. 17 bridge where the river is wide and fast. because of that little taste I knew I had to try and get back there but I was under the false impression that it was all similar, finding the river upstream to be much more manageable was a real eye opener. Don't know what its like at other times but this fall it was braided with shoals and rock bars that made it perfect for light tackle fishing. My only regret was I'd left my flyrods behind when I left home. I won't make that mistake again.- 26 replies

Best part of the trip was just the DIY on the river lot of luck picking the time of year to try and hit fish running in a river but when it comes together it is really rewarding the pink salmon, chinooks and coho were all present and I would have been happy with even one kind but to get them all there was a trifecta.- 26 replies

don't want to dampen the fire on this but my wife is a customs broker and she's thinking you may end up having to get a broker to do a single import cost likely based on value.

had a flock of speckle bellied geese go over the house yesterday won't be long and the sandhill cranes and snows will be coming through. I've spent my share time laying out for waterfowl but am more inclined to the upland fields these days- 26 replies

Thats my setter Sophie she's put a lot of food on my table over the years but age is going to keep her out of the fields this fall I fear. The Nipigon river was a dream that came true for me so if you have that one body of water you've always dreamed of fishing work towards making it happen but remember to just enjoy the moments even if the fish don't co-operate that's why there are photo's that aren't fishing related. Thank you for the kind words. enjoy your day folks!- 26 replies
