Can somebody give me the link to the thread with the huge list of Tackle Shops. I've been looking for it but can't seem to find it. Hope somebody helps me fin the link. Thanks, Mike

Nice man, I'll be trying for the rainbows with a friend in a few weeks from now I hope. Thanks for sharing, MTBF

Nice job, laker's are awesome to catch. Hope I can get out for them again soon. Thanks for sharing, MTBF

Nice Pike, how long was it??

Right on man, awesome report. I might need to take a drive out there next winter and give this bass fishin a try! Great report yet again, wish me luck tomorrow with the pike plz MTBF

Amazing to say the least. The construction of it the amount of organization and well wow. Feels good to be Canadian knowing what these fine people have created. Go Canada!

Awesome saltwater fish and wildlife pictures! Must of been a fun trip, fishing is always nice to do while on vacation! Thanks for sharing, MTBF

I honestly don't mind. I remember who shows respect on this forum and when asked politely (an not out of the blue) I will always share info to that person, if they are nice to me I do the same and I am sure it is that way with any other member here. To show respect is to gain respect. I appreciate the responses and hope I take the blow for the river guys an other people that "blur" spots this winter/spring. I really don't mind the abuse as the saying goes "stick's and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me" Hope you see the next 2 reports from me in the next 5 days, more Pike fishin! Can't wait to see guys catching walleye and giant perch this weekend in the reports early next week! Good fishin, Mike

gotta love ice line lol

Yes, I'll need those again from you this year. Going to be doing lot's of spring time Pike fishing before I head to my summer job in the end of May. We will need to hook up and show me how to catch some Northern's in open water. Toronto bound? I live in Oshawa.

To fix my comment from before...Fireline Crystal is garbage. I've now switched to P-Line Fluoroclear(4lb) and it has worked great...except when I caught that 31" Pike, she stretched a few yards of line. That with my 15lb Fluoro leader and I have no problem's catching pike. On Tip-Ups I use 12lb mono with the same leader material.

In all honestly at 29" long we thought it was a joke too but when it layed on the ice it was soo fat man. Rapala Digital I'll been using for 2 years now with not 1 problem...7lb 20z on the scale, my 2 friends and I saw the weight on the scale. Let's not forget I'm a big dude if it convinces you it was a heavy fish.

They look solid...one of those with a Shimano Cardiff or Abu Ambassador round baitcaster and I might even be able to catch a musky

End it dude. Nobody cares.

Amazing fishin pictures Dave524 and Fisherpete!!!

I fixed the picture. Honestly I am not a artist and it will take a few mins for Photobucket to update the photo but I cropped the hell out of it just for the people on here that like to bi t ch and complain all day long. I hope nobody else needs to take time out of their day after a long day of fishing, share how they did and upload pic's type out a quick report and have it complained about and crapped on. Just wanted to saw thank you to the 9 or so reply's that auctually were appreciative towards my catch. Thanks for the positive response guys.

Great job, wow.

Ok, so...I got more snot rocket info...I've only seen a hand full of Pike so far this winter, and some real nice fish too. Not many people that can say in their first 6 or 7 trips out Ice fishing they have caught 4 Pike over 6lbs, a whitefish, a 11lb 5oz laketrout, 5 perch over 12" long, a solid Black Crappie even a darn 3lb Bowfin...Like honestly boys I just once would like to keep a spot of mine secret. I can relay and have done so in many PM's over the time I've been here on good fishing spots and helping anglers out as many of you. I love to fish and when I have friends on a forum I love to broadcast and share my day of fishing with them through some photo's and a quick report. It's fun to be able to share with a bunch of people how I did out on the water. This is a joke and the older fokes on here need to stop arguine with people that are clearly "young kids" in their minds. I love to Ice fish and have done well being this is my first season Ice fishing. Be warned, more reports to come...

I'm in favor of the last option!

I agree, I found it a bit frustrating reading reports from river fisherman where they always blurred it, but finding great fishing spots down in Southern Ontario is hard to do. I, like river fishermen depend on these areas for the up most of success. If you really, really don't know of a good area to fish then I hard it hard to believe you are a good fisherman and perhaps why you are also arguing for me to share my fishing spot. Sure, when I find my 2nd good fishing spot I'll share it with the world. But at this time friends and family are the only people I share valuable or important info like this with. I'm sure you would not take a stranger off the street and share with them where you forgot your lost wallet full of money. You would tell somebody who you know and trust will do the beneficial and more responsible thing. How do I know every fish caught will be released, or when that stranger off the street is going to bring my wallet back....Get my drift.

Yup. I bass fish enough out of the year but thanks for the offer.

I'm pullin for Denny Brauer and Reese like last year.

Will do, glad I can bring my Dad out to a spot I have learned about and be confident to put him on some fish. Looking forward to fishing with you again buddy.

I don't fish for Pike on Simcoe. Where I fish during the Ice season is my business. Every report I have ever done during open water fishing is and always has information on what lake and where I was fishing. It is my choice to keep lake names, spots and general areas to myself. The location where I have been has already picked up in people fishing it and we have still been doing well. In Southern Ontario when I catch pike after pike and jumbo perch I try to keep my location disclosed. It is obviously not a secret otherwise I would not see 4 trucks out on the Ice fishing beside me. Do research and find your own spots. There is no lake in Ontario that is a "secret".

That right there is my goal for a pike this winter! Awesome man, Congrads!
