Roll those legs out with a rolling pin , seriously or a foam roller. Excess lactic acid in any muscle tissue reeks havoc , cramps , spasms , general tightness . Hydration and nutrition are paramount also.

Great report , And a nice pike. R

Amazing !!!! Pic of the waders hanging beside the fly rod was a perfect fit ! Enjoyed the read. R

Thanks for all the replies and pms . Hope I got back to everyone, if not let me know. Ryan

Hahaha, I gotta get some scratches on the new truck somewhere

None in particular , not looking for anyone's Brookie honey holes , just some new water as I don't have time for the leg work for the next little while. Though I'm able to offer Bass lakes right up to Brookie lakes.Ry .

Hahaha, Brian's sampled one lake already., cost him an hour or two labour setting up bear baits .

Here's the deal, I'm looking for a some back lakes within 3 hours of Barrie , lakes with camp sites are preferred . I'm finding that with two kids and a wife back in university I have zero time for exploring/testing new waters. I have some OFC street credit with a few members in regards to back lake fishing LOL. In return I'll see if I can accommodate any back lakes info your searching for, within the same area. As for quality, I'm not looking for your platinum lakes, we can start trading at the Bronze level LOL. If anyone is interested in sharing some info let me know. Cheers Ryan

A job well done ! Be proud

NICE !!!!!! Love the tube setup .

That's pretty cool, I can think of at least a dozen big dirty log jams that I'd love to have underwater footage of what's lurking beneath them.

Stopped by today to check the place out, it was a zoo but that was to be expected on a Sunday. Though it was busy it was always easy to find an associate for price checks etc . Was able to spend a few moments in the gun room ( solo with two kids under five ) and it was refreshing to see the staff actually had some shotgun knowledge and gun dog know how. Kids were spoiled rotten with free swag and loved the kids sections. The thing that impressed me most was when we picked a new dog bed with no price on it, inquired about it with staff and were given a price of 39.99. Got to the front to check out and the bed came up as 79.99. Cashier called the manager over, a quick on line search revealed the bed was in fact 79.99. The manager honoured the price quoted to me without me even asking. Impressive . I look forward to hitting the place once the crowds fizzle out, and hope the service stays the same.

Agreed keep it simple . Remember those pigs we hooked 8' from shore while we fished from the shore at that back lake we hit. Doesn't get much simpler LOL

Just a shot in the dark ..... Does obtaining your DZ have anything to do with applying to the Fire Department ?

Fitness is crucial , glad you've found away to incorporate fishing and fitness!!! Well done !!!

Nice set up , I'm getting more interested in the Yak fishing. I travel to a bunch of backwoods bass lakes in the summer and this would prove ideal . Interested to see how it works out. Ry

Hahahah, just looked again.Thought 20 months was a little strange , Still impressive though .

For a a kid that's 20 months old that's INSANE , unbelievable coordination , balance, and the ability to process instruction that rapidly. Talk about natural athletic ability.

Worked a BPS classic years ago and he was there with his wife promoting Rapala . Honestly , he may be the most pompous arrogant you know what I've ever come across. Not a fan.

Usually do them myself but not this year, any recommendations for a good tax guy in the Barrie area ? Thanks Ryan

Poaching losers ! Good on ya for calling them in. Hope it's followed up on. Sucks about the little guy, we were doing the puke and clean last week. Not fun !!!

Anyone wanna buy my Dodge Ram MegaCab with a 5.7 Hemi ........anyone ? ...........

Great pics , and good on ya for taking him out! R

I know .... It's infested LOLI'm a bit of a pansy, I just can't pull the trigger knowing their carrying pups or have pups in a den . I have no problem with others doing it, but I'd rather Wait till winter. Trust me I hate em as much as the next guy!
