If you ever find yourself in icy waters, through the ice or a capsized boat , remember the 1-10-1 Rule. It could save your life. Apparently something like 80% of people drown in the first few minutes they fall into icy waters, due to panic. The 1-10-1 rule: you have 1 minute to control your panic. you have 10 minutes of meaningful movement- your body will function somewhat normally in almost freezing temp waters for 10 minutes - to get out of the water. you have 1 hour to live, assuming you have your Lifejacket or floater coat on, . In near freezing water, you can live for about 1 hour before critical hypothermia, so a signaling device can save you an hour after you fall in - reflector, whistle, a waving hand …. The biggest thing is the panic, people actually swim away from shore and safety because of panic. So if you go in, think 1-10-1 A life jacket or floater coat is always a good idea when on icy waters as well.

Yes Transport Canada is going to make us all "safer" by renewing a lifetime boat registration number every 10 years for a fee. Another MONEY grab by the Federal Government - they also are attempting to extort more money for the commercial registration of vessels in Canada, at a time when most Canadian commercial vessel owners are on the brink of bankruptcy - especially the camp owners and outfitters - they do not need another fee hike by the Federal Government in 2022. Most people are unaware but about 10 yrs ago the FEDS - TC - changed the antiquated Vessel Registration for Canada - Legislation that was intended for ships - Ocean going Ships. Well in their incredible incompetence they wrote the legislation to include EVERY commercially owned vessel. Well "vessel" means anything that floats basically - so yes they actually required a Canoe, rowboat, peddle boat to be Federally Registered in Canada if it was owned by a business for about a year until we got it changed - the morons had registration requiring notorized documents, photos, gross tonnage calculations for a darn canoe and peddle boat and rowboat. We were only able to get it up to a 10hp or more boat - so no more canoes etc, but still a disgusting piece of legislation emplaced by TC - every little fishing camp, lakeside resort in Canada is supposed to RE - register all the little boats they have for the camp from the free lifetime pleasure craft registration number they had to a Commercial Registration number and a renewal fee every 5 Years. A legislation for Ocean going Ships applied to a 10 hp tinny in a tiny little lake in remote Canadian wilderness - nuts. Sadly there are thousands of camp and resort owners totally unaware of this legislation or are aware and have not bothered with it, and now they are subject to litigation exposure in the event of any accident, because their boat was not correctly registered with the government. Yes this is the same group of Bureaucrats who now want the Pleasure Craft licence to have a renewal date and a fee instead of the Free lifetime system, that has worked perfectly fine for decades. Perhaps its time for EVERY pleasure Craft owner in Canada to ignore TC - toss the pleasure craft renewal paper in the garbage where it belongs. The current system of pleasure craft licencing works fine, this new TC renewal plan is a pure money grab, it is intended to support the bloated sunshine list payroll of TC - it does not make anyone any safer - even if this "agenda" came from the JOKE - "office of boating safety" - yes the same ones that invented an online PCOC licence - yes that really made us all better/safer boat operators right ? Money Grab - no benefit to any Canadian citizen, only benefit TC payroll support. Renewal - toss it

We made sure to move to the other side of the shoal and watched for floaters 🤪

You need to teach him what an "Aquashit" is all about. I had a client with 3 ten yr olds a few yrs back, we where fishing near a marina for a few hrs caught some bass then decided to go catch some walleye further out in the lake. I asked the boys if anyone needed a washroom break - nope - 15 minute boat ride later we get out to the spot and one of the boys says Dad I need to go to the bathroom. Dad says pee over the side or use the pee bucket - but Dad I got to take a crap. Well son Dad says it's time you learned all about an Aquashit. Good thing it was July and water was warm, Dad tells the boy to strip and jump off the back then hang on to the ladder and "just pinch it out son". Of course the other 2 boys leaned over the outboard to watch and give us the play by play action - ooh it's floating -ick hahaha We were all laughing our ass off except of course Aquashit boy wasn't overly thrilled with us. we sacrificed a small hand towel and started catching walleye Next time your with your buddy teach him about an Aquashit cheers

If you have Bell cell phone service then probably yes Any cell phone towers up there yet ? I used to live in Elsa Yukon we had none there then.

Right handed and I always reel with left hand. 30 years ago it was pretty hard to find left hand baitcasters - the manufacturers pretty much only made right handed ones then, and retailers rarely stocked the lefty's that were available, which is why tons of anglers got used to "switching hands" after casting. If you cast the rod with your right arm - only logical to reel with the other.

Hey For some of you Rural guys out there sick of high priced Bell Turbo Hubs because the Bell phone lines are so old they do not support ANY internet - You need to check out The Source - they offer the exact same Turbo hub as bell for a 1/4 of the price. The Source store - owned by Bell - sells a very secret Turbo Hub service they do not really want anyone to know about so there is No published information on this. They only offer it so they can claim to CRTC and CCTS that they are offering Rural Canadians an affordable wireless home internet plan. You have to ask a store employee for it. There is no written material on the rate plan, the guy will write it on a scrap of paper and hook you up. It is only supposed to be sold for certain Postal Codes but that can be fudged. 100GB of data for $75/Month Still not unlimited but better than the $300-$400 overage charges that can be rung up on the Bell Wireless home internet hub on their "stepped plan" GL MIKE

Check out Suffix Invisiline Castable Flourocarbon 14-17 lb I use a lighter weight for walleye jigging with a spinning rod, super strong stuff and has a little more flexibility than a leader grade floro The line has very little stretch - between mono and braid - and it also sinks which i like for deeper jigging and feel to the jig. 7Lb Invisiline on spinning gear landed these 2 plus hundreds more without bite offs or line breaking

Lac Kipawa and Lake Muskoka both have monster Pike and good numbers - depending on what time of year you are looking to go the big girls might get harder to find Both lakes see the bigger pike over 40" drop down with the Lake Trout as water warms. Spring time and late summer early fall are the best times for numbers of bigger Pike Both locations have a good shot at 45" plus all year though GL MIKE

HI Angler Lou You may want to check out Lake Muskoka if you are driving from Florida = great Pike fishing as well as Bass and Walleye Lots of Lakeside resorts to choose from 11/2 hrs from Toronto Lots of Pike to catch - No guarantee of a 45" plus but hundreds of them are caught every year the spring Pike tournament usually has a bunch that size Check out Reelpro on Flickr most photos are Lake Muskoka fishing Further North about another 3 hrs from here I would check out Lake Kipawa in Quebec lots of big Pike and Walleye - drive to and quite a few very well priced camps offering "american plans" GL MIKE

HI I spent summers on Baptiste as a kid fishing every day almost, been back a handful of times over the years, always a good mixed bunch of fish. Its a great Lake you can catch walleye, - troll the deep weed line on the south shore in front of the old Birch Cliff cabins early and eve always get a few. Lake Trout - almost anywhere in the main basin run baits at 55 feet along points and the steeper breaks - you'll get bonus Muskie as well. Largemouth Bass in secret bay - monster largemouth in N corner of Dog Bay Smallies everywhere - try the Rock fall cliffs in the east bay Go up to Elephant for miles of topwater action , bass pike, muskie, hybrids,- Not sure if they are still there but we used to catch huge lake whitefish at dusk in Dog Bay just off the deep point on the north as you enter the bay., You could fish every day and only tap a tiny percentage of angling opportunities on Baptiste.
