113 just now. Will poke in daily to rock the boat. Man..... looking forward to grabbing that peeling reel from the holder. Cha-cha-cha!

Contest ends March 31st... April 1st I'll let this fall from page 1. Sorry gang, just too important to me to let slip by here or in the voting. If you haven't yet, please drop a quick "like" FB users. Thanks again.

Read this last night from work and tried twice to reply with no luck. Anyways Dan, I got this sense from the report that you felt humbled, slightly excited and quite happy to get this experience. It could haven't worked out better for a nicer fella, and Lord knows you could use that break from work. Enjoyed that very much bud. First and last pics are the best this time around. Got that right.

When I get up tomorrow afternoon from sleeping off work, I'll add the link to my faves above the weather and beat out a daily vote dood!

Awesome dood. Amazing river to travel and fish, and home to some great friends.

More votes keep comin' from OFC'ers... right on! Appreciated. I'm stoked about the possibility of this!!! Thanks all.

Hoping the wheels don't fall off Randy. It's no race but we're burning some rubber here.

Seriously people... I'm blown away already here. Win or lose, thanks a million times over for the support and kind words. Greatly appreciated. Contest ends March 31st so here's to hoping.

Hi All. I have a huge favor to ask anyone and everyone who has ever enjoyed a Moosebunk report. I need your "like" which is basically a vote. For a number of years I have pumped out fishing reports to several Ontario fishing boards. It's a labor of love, something I do for myself as much as others. Countless hours as many know, have gone into writing and sharing photos online with other anglers. One report in particular always stood out as my favorite, and that was when Brenda and I shared a trip to Plummer's Arctic Lodge in the NWT. The original report I spread online for everyone was 90 photos and 11,000 words. Quite an undertaking. After that post, Big Jim approached me to ask I rewrite that report into 3000 words for his magazine "Just Fishing." We had to settle on a 6000 word piece to be run over two issues. I donated what was arguably my best written work to Jim for this, in thanks for him for running the article. Later, Plummer's asked if they could use my online report for reprint in their magazine Arctic Lure, I was happy to grant this request. Some time passed when later a friend of mine caught my picture in a magazine. A char photo was an advertisement for Plummer's. Just in that trip experience alone I have worked a ridiculous amount of time and enjoyed every minute. 17,000 words and 90 photos is equivalent to 7-10 feature articles in a magazine like Outdoor Canada. My payment was simply the satisfaction and pleasure of it for myself and others. PLUMMER'S ARCTIC LODGES HAS A STORY CONTEST ON RIGHT NOW AVAILABLE TO PAST GUESTS AND I HAVE MADE A SUBMISSION. ALLOWED 750 WORDS I HAVE DESCRIBED MY 2008 TRIP THERE AS THE CONTEST GUIDELINES REQUEST. THE PERSON'S STORY WHICH RECEIVES THE MOST "LIKES" AT THEIR WEBSITE, WINS A RETURN TRIP. IT'S AT THIS TIME, I BEG ANY OF YOU TO PLEASE GIVE ME YOUR VOTE AND ALLOW ME TO RELIVE PLUMMER'S AGAIN, SO I MIGHT RETURN BACK TO YOU ALL WITH ANOTHER GREAT STORY TO TELL. GO TO THIS LINK PROVIDED AND BELOW MY STORY WHICH IS TITLED, "LYING BENEATH THE DREAM GIVING TREE."

It would be greatly appreciated you take this 1-minute to hook a brother up. Moosebunk.

That's an interesting looking spoon. Whities for ling. Fun either way dood! Some nice fish.

Mike and steelhead! That's what has been missing around here for a time now.

THe Columbia bibs I have are great..... ummm were great. Don't ice fish 'em on cause auger blades have a tendency to slice through fabric when you're not paying attention.

Enjoyed that Jo. & Co. Fine pics and write up. Thanks. Nice to see Terry nab a few too.

There needs to be two or three of ya Wayne for that pace of one.

No to option "A" That is all.

If ya couldn't park on the ice there'd be even more vehicles left idling in the streets around Simcoe's shoreline... and more townspeople lobbying to put up signage.

PM me a list of any specific questions. I've fished it (and stayed 6 days) along with the two connecting lakes Magiskan and Bateman.

Again bud, sorry I can't. You know I wanted to try and get together this year but the offer came a little late in the game. Understandable given your circumstances. I can't break other committments now. Answered ya quick the other night as I had Stevie Zebco down from Moose Factory and we were scheming some fun. Have a blast bud. And any fence sitters oughtta know... Wayne is the man! Great host, great guy, with a great pad on the big lake of Temagami.

Fantastic report man. Keep yer chin up and fish on the ice. Super pics too...

Nice to see ya out and beating on those awesome whities. Great sled mods too. You're unstoppable in the slush.

I read much of that... WOW!!! Good points both sides, overwhelming majority at that site support their obvious agenda. It should be applauded that the group exists and people are showing support there, otherwise all that's left is the OMNR and NOTO who believe the opposite it seems. Mulling it over... it's in the best interest of citizens and resource users that accesses established on Crown Lands not be accesses governed by any people other than all of those who pay for the Crown or I guess even have signed Treatied right & jurisdiction. If new areas are to be opened up in the name of any business (ie, recreation, forestry, mining) then closure of such areas shouldn't be an after-thought... it should have been considered before development occurred. It bugs me to know that Crown Land often appears owned by the highest bidder or whiniest people, and not the majority who pay everyday for it.

I haven't fished with any great quantity of OFC'ers... but some real quality. Just solid... like the huge hearted Wayne and DanC, and the adventurous passionate trib trio of Solo, Bill and Paulus. Thanks guys, some great time on the water but never enough of it.

My buddy and I were packing up when he says to me, "that guy is into a good one." You and your friends handled it well and had it down the hole in no time. I saw you hold it up for the pic and thought... Great fish... and geez, guess we should have set-up 50 yards in that direction. Congrats dood! That's what we do it for right there.

Cabelas has them on for $69.99... $103 with duty, shipping and taxes in. But I bet you need it yesterday don't ya. lol.

"What to do in Montreal?" Ummmm... dinner & drinks, peelers, ecstasy, rave, breakfast, sleep and repeat.
