shut this down before it goes crazy...

nice fish for sure! me, my ice time is over even with a float suit...

then any part of zone 20 is good to go BUT check the Reg's as pike will close Mar 31 and reopen 1st Sat. in May.

why don't you tell us all what you want to fish for? then maybe someone can point you in the right direction...

I too am new to a baitcaster (well I got one last year and didn't use it a whole lot) and all I can say is "MONO" while you learn how to use it.

like another person said, buy one tub and toss the ones from the bags in the tub. I have a tub of 3" leeches and added 3" and 4" minnows to it no problem. No colour change to the bait or anything. buy a leakproof tub of some kind and just keep on dumping your biat and "juice" in to it...

sinker, after looking at the MNR site and pic 1 it looks like a Brown mainly because of the tail shape, flat. not a >

it shouldn't be a problem at all. after all when you are out ice fishing for a day and the catch has been on the ice out of the hut all day some times they freeze...

I have my dad's "billy club" from the 70's and man it's the BEST fish bonker ever. If I could get my hands on a few more of these I would in a second. 1 bonk is all you need with this thing...

nice fish and good job on the upgrade for the team!

thanks folks!

Well, I just went through 8 pages looking for an old post and didn't find what I was looking for. So, what is the best way you can talk someone to ask about fishing on private propery? I ask as there is a river close to me that I see guys fishing when the opener hits but it is fenced off with signs up. I want to try and contact the land owner so I can fish there too, and clean up as I leave (the others have left a mess in the past). So what is the best way to find out who the land owner is and ask them? Thanks in advance. Geoff

Thank you ALL for the replies! now all I have to do is get power to the boathouse so I can run another fish tank there too! WOOHOO!!!!!!

So my daughter asked me this evening if we can keep any of the minnows we catch at the cottage in her fish tank. So can we? Even if we buy minnows can we keep them in her fish tank after our day on the water? I've never thought of this until now but she's got me wondering...

say hi to my cousin Julie for me if you can over the weekend. Geoff

and don't say FISH!

hum... I have never fished for and or caught a crappie before (bass only person but that's changing ) so now I guess I have to try for them with all these posts about how good it is... Are they good eats? what taste is it most like?

congrats! if you drink coffee switch to milk instead of cream and try and cut the sugar out to, it will help.

good on ya!!!!! great, now I can't wait for softwater season up at the cottage. Going to ask my mum if she wan't to get out for old time sake...

nice report and nice fish too! give me a heads up if you and your dad want some more company next time you go out as I'm just North of you...

not sure but something tells me that this one will never spawn...

*bump*

Yeah, it was posted and Dale MacNair has replied to most posts about it. Hey, don't get me wrong it's a GREAT FISH so I'm not hear to rain on your post of a new finding. After all, I think you can see Dale MacNair and the mount of the fish this Sat. at the show in TO!

my father-in-law, brother-in-law and nephew were at that game last night too. it cost them less to go there then 1 person to go to game here, sad... I might be heading down at the end of the month too...

in the garage on newspaper. depening on the weather (winter/summer) I will toss it in the green bin as I don't have a garden and I don't want my dog to get it...
