Have you sold all your fishing gear and your truck yet for a shiny new grand caravan and hockey gear? : )

Jeremy come get some splake next weekend up here!

Is that the same face you get after a night of drunken wizardry at the camp?

Congrats! That's quite the skill set you're passing down. Just make sure they know it all before the age of 12 and they're set!

I see you are also a wizard!

I wanna really dial in the mudpuppies this year...

Yep, I prefer a few weeks after ice out myself too. If the waters less than 55 on top, then they definitely wont necessarily be pushing deep

Early season tactic? Don't use leadcore for one thing. I like flatlining smaller gangtrolls with your favorite flutter spoon 2-3 feet back. On a lake im unfamiliar with I will just troll the shoreline until I find what I'm looking for, which is usually boulder flats in 15-30 fow. Last summer we never saw surface temps over 70 so nothing heavier than a 3 oz bottom bouncer was necessary, but that can get me down 40+ feet slow trolling with braid. Lot more fun catching 2 pound Lakers on a light casting outfit and a small weight than a telephone pole with 10 tons of cable on it lol

At least that's how I thought I remembered it happening...

Nice fish, time to buy a rain coat!

Awesome Nick. We hit the perch grounds yesterday on Nip and wailed the jumbos too, nothing gargantuan like those though

Another classic winter adventure. Too bad they weren't cooperative yesterday

They're both good trucks that have known issues like everything else. Those hemis have tons of jam! Is the ford a 5.4 or 4.6

Was able to leave a couple windows open for most of the day earlier in the week. Definitely was a nice preview, but its not spring to me until I can put a boat in the water. The 15 cm of snow were in the process of getting right now sure put a damper on the whole spring thing lol

My local gas station has had a huge pile of 2015 regs for months!

Holy crap that looks amazing. I'm taking my venison chops outta the freezer as soon as I get home tonight lol

And shag, that duck soup looks fantastic.

Just made up a batch of moose burgers. Had a 3/4 lb of moose ground a pound of ground beef. Mix in Italian bread crumbs and 2 eggs. Turns out fantastic, taste is predominantly moose but the beef is pretty well mandatory for the fat content and helps to keep things together

Wouldn't surprise me in the least. Our lake trout winter season was reduced to 1 month (mid-Feb to mid-March), and there are far more fisheries in that area under heavy pressure I would imagine. I anticipate a closed winter season on lake trout and brook trout, with the exception of stocked fisheries of course.

And I would support it

Hey don't get too excited, we're still in for another 6 weeks of the hard stuff lol

Lots of nice ones there. Especially jealous of those crappies!

Hocus Pocus...still a hit to this day. Never was a big fan of Focus. Saw some classic Uriah Heep and Jethro Tull in the similar videos though, that's the truly timeless stuff!

Awesome. Is that the widetrack expedition?

5 whities in some tough conditions doesn't sound too shabby. Nice job again

That's a great walleye by anyone's standards. Looks like a fun day

I have a dealer about an hour south of me in Bonfield, which is where the motor is being sold from. Sounds like my decision is all but made. The motor is priced at $2000 for brand new non-current 9.9, which is good considering that I'm seeing 2-4 year old Merc 8 and 9.9's going for upwards of $2500!
