P.M. me. Maybe I'll head out with you? At least I'll tell you where we got them.

I'd probably be headin' out solo anyway, so yeah give me a shout.

I'll be out there either tomorrow or Tuesday evening for one last kick at the can.

Personally the only techniques I would recommend a <7' rod for would be fishing topwaters and jerkbaits. A short rod makes it easier for most people to impart the proper action for these techs. For all other techs I would recommend 7' and greater. With a longer rod you can cast further, more easily Control your bait in heavy cover and have more Control over the fish.

What he said

Think about trying some bottom bouncing if the spoons aren't doin it for ya.

Beauty! I was down south all week with the pin ready to go but never was able to get out while the water was good.

Great report. Still never made it up there in the winter. Next year..

Nice gators, and some tasty pannies! Always good eatin' during the hardwater season.

What a hog of a steelie. nice shootin

Go have another drink, Chara`s a bully plain and simple.

 

You probably think the Maclaren hit on Zednik a few years ago was just a big defenceman finishing his check.

Since neither of us will ever know one way or another, I'd suggest you stop with the personal attacks, bucko.

I don't see the intent to injure. I see a big defenceman finishing his check. Chara is about as clean a hockey player I can think of, to be honest. I just hope Max isn't too banged up.

And yes, I am a Habs fan.

Great report, as usual. Finally making it out there tomorrow for the first and probably last time this season. Better late then never (I hope).

The harnesses totally compromise the experience

Interesting enough. People are such hypocrites though.

 

I think the documentary "Food, Inc." is more relevant. Although, I am always skeptical about these types of sensationalized journalism. Still, it's good to be informed and be able to come to your own conclusions after some follow up research.

Yep!

As interesting (and at times informative) as these documentaries are, people need to realize that they are far from being the be-all-end-all of information on the topic, and that ultimately they're trying to convey their own point of view upon the viewers.

My off-topic 2 cents

Close to a month of back lake troutin for this guy. The best is yet to come

Crosshairs: Just curious as to where the money being 'spent on nip' is going to. I'm not sure I understand how that helps to counteract gill netting in a naturally reproductive lake.

I'm definitely going to try some variant of that recipe. I'd imagine any light-fleshed fish would be fine. Thanks for the report!

Great job. Can't wait to finally get out there this weekend.

we've been hitting decent numbers of walleye on the south shore all month, but not much size to them at all. biggest fish was maybe 15 "

I usually hear of one or two of those getting caught out there every winter. What a PIG

Still plenty of walters to be pulled thru the hard stuff

Good on ya. I've got nothing but bad luck on that river it seems.

The OFC tape!

Beautiful gators. it was a great weekend on the ice.

Spring? Strap that sucker to a ice rod!

yep!

PIG! nice shootin
