This was very sad to just hear.
If you have watched the Barrie news for a long time, you knew Bob.
What a wonderful man to know. Funny how he made you feel like a friend and family even just seeing him on tv.
Rest in peace Bob Mcintyre.
Yes glad your pooch is ok.
My late lab Remington, once took a $5 bill and gulpped in down quick, A couple days later, it came out perfectly rolled up. I washed that thing down with the garden hose til I felt safe to pick it up. Gave it to the son to get a couple bottle of pop right after.
THANKS GANG
I was tempted to do a call in for today, but didnt. Getting texts and reading catching going on, I was ready to leave at noon. LOL
Im in the same boat sorta speak bud. This weekend will be clean up, and get the soft water gear ready. My truck looks like a war zone. Glad I got the single cab and short box.LOL
Im sure come May, the meegs will be ready to do battle again.
Both ya.ll have a nice feed going there. I would love a taste, but Im stuffed. Nothing like a fresh feed of fish, two days in a row. I even have some left for my dinner Monday. Always fresh, never frozen.
Enjoy byes.
What a way to finish a weekend and possibly the last time on simcoe this hard water season.
I have been trying to get the meegs perfected, but was getting frustrated each time. Today made up for all that frustration.
I got the call there were fish in real shallow. How shallow, 16 fow. Sight fishing. This I had to see. So meet up with Rob and his buddy and off we went. Walking out there were some holes with battle blood at them. I was getting excited to get fishing. Set up in 16 fow and it didnt take long to start marking. I lowered the meegs and the spoon. They were chasing the spoon but not hitting. This is were the game changed.
I start bouncing the meegs off the bottom and raise it a few inches and slowing twitch it. WHAM, and I mean WHAM. It smashed the bait. Didnt take long to get it top side being only 16 fow. LOL Managed one more after that on the meegs and back down it went. To soon to call it quits. Then the screen went blank for an hour.
Since it was warming up nice and there was no wind, we put the huts away and moved around abit. 43 fow. Marking right away and KABOOM, another whitie on. Get this one top side and thats my two fish limit. Figured why take the chance on a blank screen again. After about 5 minutes, Rob nails one on his meegs aswell. I had a few chasers on the swim bait, one hit and miss. Called it a day at noon.
James, I hope I made ya proud bud. I know you were just as frustrated as I ,when I told you I couldnt get them to work for me.
Thanks for the invite Rob. That makes us even on the trade up spots.
Today I can say, I smashed them on the MEEGS.
This pic reminds me of the movie TWINS.
I have to say though, fishcrisp is getting up there in price. I use to pay 3-4 bux a bag for years. Today I paid $6.45. I like this stuff as it repels the oil. I need to find a new coating that does the same for less $$$
Deep fried with fishcrisp.
Set aside til dinner. Then melted cheese in OVEN. Real nice and crispy.
Yes ceasers. I had chicken/bacon caeser wraps last night. So used left overs. Fresh of course, not left over mixed caesers salad.
It,s not really tacos, it,s fish wraps, and thats a WRAP.
As much as that would be nice Norm, I went a different route. Fish taco. This is the first time I tried and LORDTUNDERNJEPPERS,Im full and happy with it. BURP, Excuse me.
Nice fish bud. Sorry you missed out on the whitefest. I have the spot saved in my newfie gps, so next year we will fish it and NOT, fish deep waters for greasers.
