misfish

Thanks Terry. I was wondering where to find it. Seen it posted last year.

Since I got rid of the P/U,I stopped whining. Seen it coming.Ya,I, miss the advantages,but dont mis the burning in my pocket. whine all you want to those in charge. . Good luck with that. What are we going to do? Burn everything down to the ground like other countries to make our point? Oh theres a smart thing to do.LOL Still going strong with my $62 fill up last Thursday morning. Fished and traveled everyday til today. Meaford and back 2X,many stops in between. Up to wab this morning,drove through Rama,back into town and off to hwy 9/27 for a pick up. Over to Bradford to check on the fishing. Stop in at 3 spots heading home. Might have to top up for the next week of work. Not bad for $62 EH. Ya,tired of fighting these guys.

Boy was I way off.LOL Still cool to see It,s a funny camera. When I do these shots,it,s like crap or so so.. Then again,I can take zoom shots of other things and they will turn out great. I,ll leave this forum to those that know and just look.

I told you land locks would work on Simcoe. Open year round season.LOL

Came across this today.

I wonder how many tags got eaten this morning? They are thick every where I was today. And I have been as far as Wab,all the way down to the canel rd this morning. You have got to see the number of those dirty birds along the canel. AMAZING.

I even stopped by the motel to see if me newfie brudder was up from Steel Town.. NOPE.

Finally got the vid uploaded.of the live web cam. As you can see,it,s not updated,as I took this on the 18th. But I still seen no fish on the ladder.

Rob. I didnt see a single boat or angler anywhere this morning. It does start today right??????????????

While out this morning doing some wild life searching,I decided to stop at the launch areas for yous that are planning on attending the fest. Not one launch (free) is open. Someone is going to be pocketing alot of cash. Unless they have a heart and charge say 10 bucks max. Dought thats going to happen. South of the narrows is open a lot. Sorta. I use to use spot to launch my tinny. Nope Free launch just before the narrows. Solid Free launch at Orrila park by the legion. Solid Looking out from the launch,and this view is the same all the way up to Wab. On a side note. ST.John is still foze over as well at is launch

Still not the best of pictures,but my early start this morning,payed off finding some birds of prey and some deer. Hawk at low light. Eagles on nests. I think?????? I was lucky to find two singles and a pair. Some deer I was so excited to find these,but when I seen the out come,I need to up grade if Im going to keep at this. Thanks for looking. B

Thanks gang. Managed to get out again the next morning. Fished til the rains came. Water is very cold.LOL [/url] Stopped at the ladder again. No fish seen. I noticed the live cam this time. Numbers ae very low.

Stopped at a few spots. The MAD Notty at Angus Mouth of the Pine

As of yesterday,you still aint getting out.

Horse head sucker. Nice shot

I DO I DO

The only two series that really count.

I book the day off and go fishing. Turning 50 is like I was 25 again. BIG DEAL. This spring it,s been really hard to find tribs that are flowing clean. All reports were there are none to fish. So my thinking was,what ever,I am going fishing. I had a plan set and stuck to it. 4 stops. Up before the birds started singing,I was on my way. Top up the tank at a $1:36,grab a java and a bagel and Im gone. -2 to start my travels but there was an east wind that I knew was going to play a big part in my plans. Make my first stop. Couple of locals are sitting there watching their rods sway in the brisk winds. Im not one that wants to sit in the car and watch rods that are swaying. I,ll hit this spot on my way back. So off I go to #2 spot. I arrive to see only one car there.Cool. The water is flowing,but colour is fish able. Walk out to the mouth and I,m greeting with those darn blustery east cold winds. This guy too,was watching his rod swaying around.Mor like his rod was bend,and his line was like miles away from where his bait was.LOL This is not fun to me.So,off to #3 local. Ok water is flowing,colour not to bad. Get out of the car and see two river anglers clinching to their new hot timmies. Winds blowing in my face,tears are forming. Back in the car I go. Dang it . Get to #4 spot. Park. Look at surroundings,open window,hear little wind. Get out,study water and flow. Ok,I am here. Lets fish. Get the float rod all rigged. Oh what a feeling knowing your going to be holding your long rod again. There were a few other anglers there and it was so comforting to see them say good morning and welcome. WHAT???????? Oh I forgot,it,s north not south.LOL So I spent the remainder of my morning and afternoon drifting with my fellow anglers. Good conversations and sharing stories.. I over cast and caught one of the byes lines. Oh me bad. No worries he says. WHAT?????????? Bring the lines in,I decide to break off my line so he didnt have to retie. He said no,we can untangle. WHAT?????????? I still cut my line and retied. I had one good hit,set and on and off. My roe bag was raped. Driving home I couldnt stop thinking about these guys. It was like fishing with buddies that I have fished with for many years. Hell,Im not that polite to Terry for cripes sake. I would of made him cut his line.LOL It was so refreshing. . Then again,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, When you turn 50,they know not to mess with an old man. LMAO Some pics from today. Oh wait,theres a story I have to tell Now, Im not one of those " I own the river guy" but there are still those that are offended with float fishing guys. This is a first for me. A local older fella shows up. I thnk nothing of it until he starts blasting us guys that are float fishing. His exact words,,, You ^&%^ float drifters . I just looked at the other guys and no one said a word. He left and we kinda chuckled. Not in a disrespectful way. Was more like,he could of fished here. His loss. Back at it again in the early morn.

He,s a third line player that was made out to be a number one. Time catches up to all. Wonder what his daddy is thinking now?

Nice. Im thinking your targeting eyes with that up your way. They look like a great smallie bait. Like you said,on a light spinning reel combo. I LIKE.

Christopher dose great flys. That craw is very cool. What size is it?

That's even worse then when I made my first trip up to meet ya Dave. WOW Thanks for the heads up Dave. Saved some gas. Plan B for Thursday.

LMAO ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ YA I SHOULD OF DONE IT WHERE THEY WERE TRAINING OUT ON THE OPEN WATER AND ICE. Ya Rob Cooper.
