I know you have been looking for a place on the water, and how much you want to move back to Barrie, so I seen this today. Heres your chance.......................... http://www.bernicewhelanrealty.ca/properties/2981-ridge-road-west-shanty-bay-ontario-l0l2l0 Always loved looking at this house from the water. The pics are awesome. Ok so, all I need is a AK47 . I will walk the grounds. Just give me the boat house. LOL

I will start off by saying I am totally spoiled having Simcoe right at my front door. I know many have to travel an hour or more to get on on the Lady. They will spend a whole day to make the trip worth while, while I can just head out for a 4 hour tour and be home in minutes. I have so many access points to get out on. I try to help when I can, but I wont give my/our GO to spots. I have a few close friends that we share spots. Never will we abuse this. When there was safe ice to me, I was on it. No mater if I was catching herring or perch til the deeper waters firmed up. I dont think I missed a weekend once the ice started to form. Got out with some buds. Naw,Jer,Tybo,High Drifter,Walleyed, and my oldest son, oh and Terry. He has been MIA the past few weeks. To bad,as I know he would of had a great time out with us. The past 2 days I have fished with Walleyed. We have a spot we fish and it can be very productive this time of year. It has become our go to spot the last 2 years. I fished it friday and got my 2. Yesterday was a window shopping day for the fish. This morning well, it was white fish smash. He had the hot rod going 10/12 and I, 2/3. The funny part was, he was only 40 ft from me and 3 fow difference. He has the next 3 days to fish,I am back to work after a 3 day long weekend. I wish him well til closer. Im not done with the ice yet though. There are perch to be had come next weekend. I dont target them during the big fish season. I dont even target lakers, even though I fish some waters that have the odd shallow ones roaming around , I would sooner have a good feed of whities. On a side note, I have to say how impressed I am with my new Artic Armour float suit. Never have I been so warm, sometimes to warm. The suit wore like a Armoni suit. Soft and very comfortable. As many of the suits these days, there are way to many pockets. I had stuff in them and would reach in and say, oh, there you are. Or when I came in it was, where the hell did I put my truck keys. So even though many didnt like the way mother nature was this winter, I am satisfied with my season. View of this morning Some keepers from this morning Nice clean fillets

Any sign maker will do them for you. They will put the full number on a sheet. ( no need buying a whole package with letters/numbers you dont need ) Also you can get what letter design you want. You peal one side off. Lay the numbers on the boat. Sweep a plastic puddy knife over the said numbers. Peal off the backing.

This is one NF post I will support.

Ok I am at AWEEEEEEE With what I just cooked up. Never tried double frying fries. Never tried this batter as well. I think of myself as a good cook, but always willing to listen and learn from others. When you get a tip from anudder brudder from da rock, you knows ya gotz to giver. So,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Double fried fries, and a batter that was so simple but, so lite. Yes BYE, me new go to fish and chip gathering. There are 3 layers of fish here,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Double fried fries Care package for my oldest son that will be stopping by. Snow is flying here right now. After this meal, it feels like christmas.LOL Thanks bye S. Spot on Got treeee pieces left over for saturday breaky on the ice.

March 25 is on my list. See ya then Bruce. Oh, SALSA is a must so I have been firmly told. Might need to go the next level up from mild.LOL

I thought about that Wayne. Ice was fine. I even splashed water where the hut was sitting so it would kinda take hold when it froze.

Nice Truck Dan. Shame it,s not a RAM.

Wont be that bad. Good luck. Thanks Locnar

I know what I,ll be doing before next year. Adding those brass loop rings to the skirts. When theres no snow to back the flaps, that wind gets inside. Pick up some of the eskimo screw in anchors to keep the flaps down. Thanks Bill. I was almost ready to pack it in before this cold snap came. Long rod was on stand by. Oh Grass Hopper.

Do they upset you? LOL

Step by step 1 - get on ice 2 - find land marks 3 - drill holes, drop ducer in hole 4 - mark fish 5 - drop williams to the bottom. lift,lift and,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, 6 - fish hit,bring OUT of HOLE ( This is the important part Jeremy ) Not so hard really,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Went 2-3 and I was off the ice by 10. Good thing as the wind here is getting nasty. Day 1 of 3 in the books. It is Friday after all. Fish Friday. After Sunday spincast, you can have your warm open water.

I run a NO GIRL guide service, so I guess you wont be fishing anytime soon with me. LMAO Great report and the family outing report is AWESOME. I still dont believe the big white fish story. Never happen. Nope. LOL Thanks for sharing bud.

What's a walleye ?

If Davis can post a pic of the one I put in my 14 ft sylvan years ago, you would get an idea. I had an aluminum box welded up, that I slipped it right into the middle bench.

Triple dipped egg,flour,panko mix. Nice and crunchy and ohhhhhh so good. BURP

Hey Spiel, I want a refund,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Sure would be a lot easier driving to a spot, then dragging a 100 lbs walking.

I didnt see any where I was fishing today. Walking was great. Ice was 6-8". 2 big shifts happened though. Making ice again.

You got to like it when you set up, drop and wham, fish on and landed. Banner day coming. LOL NOPE One hit,one fish. Better then no fish. Full of baby gobys. Quick slice and dice. Home cut fries. Da best. Hoping for the ice to hold up this week. Looks like only a couple of days of sorta warm, then back to cold. After that, pack the ice gear away, and get the toon rigged and ready for open water.

11 grm.

I like the fact that there are naturals coming back. I really think the way the water management has been the last few years, it is helping not only the spawning areas of the white fish, but also the natural reproduction of the lakers. They were draining the lake way to late IMO. The lakers would come in to spawn on the rocks in October, then the lake level would drop. Leaving the eggs to lay on dried up rocks. Now they drop the level in September, giving the spawn a chance.
