Ohhh, that sounds good! Off to crappy tire for fluro, to the sinkers, to and a bell! Thanks for your valuable suggestions!

Gonna pier fish after a two day pike derby on the North Shore of Lake Nipissing. I want to target walleye and perch with live bait beneath a float in around 6' of 50c water with emerging cabbage and coontail weeds. I'm thinking of finess but there's those darn pike to worry about. I have a med action 6.5 foot with a 92 Shimano 2000 spinning reel. Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks

Nice to see! Thanks for sharing.

Hi and welcome 30Cranks! Your now part of a great fishing community. Big Musky are possible on Lake Nipissing.

Less is more, sometimes. I've never been in a kayak, and wonder if it wouldn't be uncomfortable what with your legs stretched out in front of you?

Hey guys, Near North had a cold winter with lots of ice this year. It should be interesting to see whether it takes longer than usual (?) for it to melt the entire lake. Here on Lake Nipissing, the water level in the late fall was (for some reason) very low. I wonder if it will extend into May this year. It has on occasion in the past. https://www.nugget.ca/news/when-will-lake-nipissing-be-ice-free

Cute!

And the minnows!

We used heavy canvas tarps supported by 3 lodge poles sourced near our destination to keep outta the wind.

Started with a Pelican sleigh because it fit in the car. Wasn't big enough. What do do? Decided to purchase a second one, and it fits into the first one, without taking more room except for a couple inches in height.

I would think she could easily outrun and climb from a coon. No?

Now that's a keeper!

That's a good idea, it would make things easier.

Well you sure have done your homework! Have you seen the LiveScope sonars? The fish don't stand a chance. Not within many peoples' budget, at around $3K. Im making do with Flasher. First you find the fish...

Those are HUGE! Thanks for sharing!
