  1. We all know the newfie jokes so, how many Italians did it take, to get it out ?🤣
  2. I hope Dave and his pal don't go for a dip. Long drive home for them byes.
  3. It was giving away everywhere I thought I could cross. Get close to the crack and I could feel the ice giving .
  4. LOL It started out to be a great morning walk out and I moved a ton this morning. So did my buddy fishfarmer . We was not sitting for long til it was moving time again and again and again. 11 x to be exact for me. We fished shallow, fished deeper then I like, went shallow and back to deep, til finally, found some fish. There was lots,but they were very tight lipped. During 10 am til 11:30, the ice banged,boomed and shifted like crazy once that east breeze started. Water was sloshing in the holes . Once Lord Simcoe finally calmed down, I was able to hook into 4 fish pretty quick and lose 2 . All with,n a span of 20 minutes. Then it shut down. Screen was white for an hour after . Called it quits . Walking was great. Just ice that required cleats for sure . Lord Sim played a little nasty on me once I got back to shore. The area was already sketchy getting on, but doable . When I got back well, not so. It was pick a spot and just get across . Well I picked a spot, shoot the smitty across first. My turn and well, dipdadip I go. Up to my waist . Funny how fast an ole man can jump out when he needs to . LOL Needless to say, this access spot is done . To bad as I was enjoying this new spot to me. Ended the morning with a whitie and 3 perch. Missed 2 other whities. On and off . Dave fishfarmer walking off in the sunrise .
  5. Welcome Malcolm, Did you fly fish over there ? Have watched so many great fly fishing videos from across the pond .
  6. After a couple of hours sitting in the rain ( called for periods of rain, ya right ) on the hard water, I said to self, you idiot, go home and tie up some baits and stay dry. There is added wraps of lead free ( 8 wraps total ) on the shanks to give more weight to them . These will be gifted to my son .
  7. He is on his last bag of feed . Time for them to get back to what nature offers .
  8. To pat one on the head like my pop does, that would of been the top Lew .
  9. I wish I had of brought my go pro or even my camera this morning Lew . I took a drive up to the parents this morning . Mudder and pop have been feeding the turkeys and deer this winter as they have done since moving up there . When I rolled up over the hill, I almost took out a few on the road . Pulled in the drive, I was greeted by more turkeys . Almost ran 2 over. LOL The path walk down to the feeding area was iced over and pop didn't feel comfortable walking, so I did the chore and headed with a pail of feed for the deer . As I did, they just came out of no where . They knew it was not my pop . They stayed back a bit, stomping their hooves in the snow telling me I was not their friend . I made my way down to the feed area slowly just watching for more to come out . I reached the area for dropping the feed and just stood there . There was a young one that really didn't know what the difference was and came right out and down to the feeding area . He/she knew I had some feed . Was so cool .When the young one came to close, the doe stomped and the young one retreated . I laid the feed down and just stood there . The leader of the group just stood back and gave me the stare down ( Like she was looking down the sight, instead of me at her ) . I was not moving til I had one deer come to the feed . One did for a short taste, then once again, the stomp and retreat . I gave in, I was not the feeder and was not welcome . I walked back up the path and they walked their way to the feed . The lead doe never took her eyes off of me . Yes, she would dip her head for a quick nibble, but back up quick looking right at me . Before I was able to reach the top of the path, I hear my pop whistle . He told me he could walk out, not see them , give a whistle and see them come running down the hill side . Well, while I was standing there , he whistled to ensure they were safe I guess . They, the deer , raised their heads and looked at him . What are you, the deer whisper ? I was at awe and can say ( no I am not a P3TA guy ) this was one of those man/ nature things, that just gets ya thinking .I only thought for a moment, as the thought of how I miss venison sausages . It was a spectacular moment, I must say.
  10. I have spare 9ft stabilizers for that . 🤣
  11. Little lake in Barrie . Nuff said .
  12. I want to know the bottom structure . Sand,mussels and what the hell the clouds of fish are.
  13. Your doing alright winning some nice prizes . I will have a camera next year. Or sooner. If they go on sale .
  14. Give Rockeys a call . Rockey’s Tackle Repair 10 Brammer Drive Orilla, ON L3V 7T4 (705) 325-3526
  15. I got over that years ago, or should I say, use to it .
  16. Larger fillets. Looking forward to the weekend and top that 15 . With the weather, it,s going to be sweet just walking and no hut to drag around.
  17. Why I prefer to, TOON.
  18. Could of been from jumping a wire fence. Hind got caught up and struggled to get over it .
  19. Do they make steak and kidney pies ? I mean real ones that are chunky with plenty of gravy . One of my favs I always enjoyed eating with my grandfather . Home made in a big roaster, with a big layer of duff on top. Always still went through 2 loaves of home bread just to sop up the gravy . .
  20. Is it just me ,or do they put their console to far forward on their boats ? Myself, I always liked them, but this is one thing that always came to me when I looked at them .
  21. Nice on the big fish . Sad the last year. Hope someone keeps it running . I have not attended this event, but it is for a great cause.
