Do people actually believe that meteorologists are 'bad at their jobs' when they miss a forecast. The weather network is a fantastic resource, so long as you're not expecting drastically unreasonable things out of them. Go earn meteorology degrees and show them what lazy bums they are lol!

Awesome stuff. Its gonna be a delicious week for you

Get a minnkota! Im not a fan of the wireless models because of the lag. Bowmount tiller handles are the best in my opinion.

Shoulda done him a favor and poked his pooper!

and/or done a little fattening of your own with some fresh catfish...

It is a stocked, year round lake trout lake. Beyond that, I dont know much other than its very deep for its size

"Not including floormats..."

They could be in 2 feet...or they could be in 40 feet. Depends on a lot of things so I would be doing a lot of trolling and covering water

You know how to spend a long weekend! Love the wild edibles...how were the fiddleheads where you are? I haven't seen any ripe for the pickin around here yet this year

Pretty nuts to think a pike could bite off a $200-$400 hard swimbait.

Wow! Pro staff syndrome at its finest...the big tournament culture is insane.

Sweet, sweet lady nipissing. Awesome weekend

Great stuff. Interesting that you keep the hook on your spoon for trolling with a snell...ill have to go that a go

Those little brownies are ballistic scrappers...nice goin

Wicksteed is a beautiful lake...i should get over there and fish it some day. That pickeral is a TANK

Well opening day was a scorcher, and the fishing was...lukewarm. The lakes are still ice cold so I opted to take advantage of what I thought would be some super shallow laker fishing. Miraculously, the trail into the lake [which was already brutal to begin with] had not deteriorated much at all over the winter and the old tundra made it in with relative ease.

The fish were hungry but not where I was expecting them to be. Running keel weights [5/8 to 3/4 oz] and flutter spoons
[snelled worm or none didn't seem to matter] over 50 + fow was the ticket to laker city. After a quick five fish we had just enough time to squeeze in a fantastic fresh shore lunch before dark. After an early departure to the tent I later found out the aurora borealis had been out that night and brighter than its been in quite some time.. Oh well

The weather went for a dump for the rest of the weekend so that was it for me. Cold rain and overnight lows around zero most of this week will keep things nice and cool for a nice extended spring laker season. The walters can wait

First laker in a couple months...I was pumped!

The spoils...

Thanks for reading

 

Good ol' Lenny. Everybody loves Lenny.

Nicely done. I think that perfectly encapsulates the spirit of Ontario's provincial parks

Sweeeet sweet touladi. Tis the season for shoreline bruisers

Great weekend. Mine was quite similar. I love ripping thru the gnarly stuff with two wheel drive. With good a/t's and low gear I can work my way thru some nasty old trails

I think it was this man who started the 'meh' craze

Looks like a white perch. What a delicious mixed bag of fish!

Sweet. Lots of lakes considered in 'the Kawarthas'...which lake, if you don't mind me asking. And if that inquiry this draws the ire of the Board...sorry...but there are a lot of lakes and a lot of square miles of water and therefore seems like a reasonable question. I don't think it would give anything away necessarily.

Nice eyes mang. Things finally get rolling up here Sat.

 

Would you chose an elkhound over a shepherd?

Not a chance, but I wouldn't choose anything over a shepherd.

Lots of hair, and even more energy, but they're great dogs if you're willing to invest a lot of time and effort into them

Save everything else, eat a bass...

Can't wait for the first stringer full of summer smallies!
