Lots and lots of great operators on the lake. The waltonian inn only uses day huts (no bungalows) and usually has a few openings

Drove thru central Ontario yesterday on the 11. Snow pretty well disappeared at Huntsville.

Does it run better once the motor is warm?

Same, was hoping to get up to my buddies by Bracebridge and North Bay...hopefully it wont be sketchy for long!

Not sure what you mean since those 2 towns are about 2 hours away from each other, but NB has had good ice for almost 3 weeks on most lakes, just not much snow.

If there are weeds, find the deep edge! Not sure what those perch are like, but I've never had luck with finding clean, thick perch with nice fillets out of small lakes. Even 12-13" fish I find are typically thin without much of a fillet to salvage, compared to a Nip or Simcoe fish. Hopefully you have better luck than I haha

I reccomend a boat.

I had a couple hot dogs before i left for work!!!

Lots of ice up here Jeremy. This rain will knock off the snow and make for great ice conditions once things firm up. Sledding...not so much

Merry Christmas! I'm stuck at work making triple time...woe is me

 

Merry Fishmas!!

Very nice

Holiday yakkin' for some big bruisers...nice

Absolute classic. They put out a sequel a year or two ago that is apparently downright atrocious, and I can't wait to see it haha

Around here they're closer to ten bucks, for smaller sizes too

I cant endorse the price!

Yep, 1/4 oz for brookies and the bigger ones are pretty dynamite for lakers.

Yeah bout the same size here. For some reason I thought they got bigger on Simcoe

They grow to gargantuan sizes on Nipissing for some reason. I would say the majority are 15-21 inches.

 

Good news for the simcoe guys though. I'll have to try pickling a fish or two this winter

They put together a good win tonight. Was hilarious when Anderson almost put in the empty netter!

Shawn pits his shacks in decent spots but don't be afraid to try some other, less busy spots. Assuming you have a truck the ice should be very driveable early again like last year

"Further fiscal oppurtunity" is a choice cut of words!

 

Awesome report, and love the camp. It must be a great feeling knowing you always have a refuge like that when your mind and body needs it

Nipissing walleye are generally not hard to catch lol, just hard to find at times. Use whatever small to medium flutter or jigging spoons you like to use and always have a tip-up out. Sometimes on a hot evening bite you do best with just simple set lines.

Filled this out a couple weeks back. 100% worth your time, and an easy way to voice your opinion to policymakers.

Those stockers are faaaaaaat! Good eats, love the look of those steaks

Good lord! Is that where the hatchery dumps their brood stock?

 

Then what's next Brian, a test for daytime driving and another for driving after dark ??

No kidding! Really ridiculous idea. I see enough people in Quebec with basically bald winter tires or 2wd trucks with zero weight in the back to know that mandating winter tires does not = safer roads.
