  1. woo hooo ... ok .. then one last run at the eastern tribs for me .. gonna go tomorrow ... then next week .... its a new set of gear
  2. I think the key is in the casting and rod control (and not having to switch hands)... I am a lefty and reel with my right hand ... while I can certainly cast and fight fish in my right hand ... I am definitely more comfortable with my left .... so a 'left handed' reel to me is for right handed people ... much like a 'shoot left' hockey stick, or 'left' handed golf clubs are for right handed players (although some will argue that one too .. but thats another thread) just my 2cents
  3. heh .. I am thinking .. megalo-knipex
  4. Thanks Roy ... heh I finally get to see how this PVR wrks ... runs down to set the recording time edit : wow .. that was easy !
  5. Wow, now that is something you reallllllly need to document ... even if only for your (now) young family to enjoy later on in their life. Only a VERRRRRRRY small percentage of the world gets a chance to spend 30 days doing exactly what they want, where they want and when they want .... thats worth more than anything material and I am sure you already know that, but dont underestimate how much people like us will enjoy sharing your experiences ... and dont wait till later to write it all down cause it just wont hapen if you do and it willl seem alot easier task if you write it as you go ... and dont worry about quality ... the quality is in the exerience ... and we can see that even in the picutres ... sign me up for the book.... oh and pm me the GPS locations for those awesome brookies ! (j/k)
  6. I wouldnt want to miss it .. just looking to put it in my calendar if we know when it is
  7. Haaa !!!... we got another one hooked on chrome from the tribs .... great stuff !!! Welcome to the club ... but by the way .... the walking and scouting is sooooo not a waste of time .... most of us have almost as much fun walking and scouting (even without a rod) as we do drifting and nailing em .... heck I often get home way more excited after a good day of scouting pre-season than after catchin all day after openers .... but then maybe its just me
  8. Port Dover Nauti Haus Room 1 - Pickeral Wriggler Room 2 - Brazilian Bronzeback Room 3 - Rattle Trap Thats it .... its all I got
  9. Im with doug on the parasite thing ... too many years in Marine Biology ... too many willies making their way to too many parts of the anatomy in the various stages of their life cycle .. and no more sushi for me ... EVER .... PERIOD ... there's a reason the cave man made a quest for fire
  10. Nope .... a skunk is really nothing more than a deposit on your education account Besides ... one has to define skunk .... if you're after walleye and only catch Bass is that a skunk ? If you're chasing chrome and only catch suckers is that a skunk ? If you are chasing Musky and only get a follow ... to me at least .. thats not a skunk ... I think its all in how you look at it. Some days its good enough just to see a swirl behind your bait ... or to see the ripple of a riser with reach of your fly ...
  11. Has anyone spoken with the folks at the bait shop on the 400 (just north of wonderland) where I suspect a huge number of Simcoe anglers get their bait on their way northbound - hopefully they wont be affected - or at least have access to a safe supply.
  12. Nice work Scot ! I am really hoping to get out that way sometime this week ... maybe tomorrow
  13. Park at Erindale Park(North side of Dundas west of Hurontario) ... walk north from the bridge (the season is opened up to Burnhamthorpe)... bring all your regular steelhead gear (waders, noodle rod, light line 6lb, small hooks, floats,roe, flies etc - and most important a pair of polaroids) ... good luck and let us know how you make out.
  14. Yep definitely a Coho , and that black stuff is probably an infection from the gash above ... looks like it may have been a narrow escape from an Osprey or some-such ... just a guess
  15. Wow thats scary stuff ! Sounds like its time for a little community watch action ... with taht much activity in one neighborhood you would think somebody must have seen something ! I hope its taken care of real soon bud !
  16. Time for a big OFC group hug Let nobody dare to 'dis' one of our clan ... that the musky gods frown forever on his offerings .. and the trout gods make his roe stink like owldroppings ... and even the rock bass (king of all sportfish) turn up their noses at his worm.
  17. I just wanted to congratulate our friends in the US on their Bronze medal win in the IIHF For those of you stuck at your desks ... you should know that you can watch the gold medal game live on WWW.TSN.CA (live streaming .. almost as good as TV)
  18. Terry you took the words right out of my mouth. By the way ... welcome to our humble community ... lurk for 4 years ... but the 6th post tells all.
  19. One word bud ... Speck-tac-ular !!!!! Any time you're looking for some company PM me ... I'll travel many many miles for specks like that !
  20. Nice !!! Great start for the New Year Scott ! Im heading out over the next day or two .... PM me if you're looking to get back out Jon.
  21. And a Very Happy, Healthy and Propserous year to you and your family Lew. Hopefully 2007 will find us able to share a boat tying into one of those 50+ girls (inches not years) And to the rest of the OFC a VERY Happy New year to all !
  22. Well .. I cant swear this was my first fish ... but it is certainly one of the first I have docemented proof ... I was just turned three in this photo I can remember fishing as my primary obsession since my very earliest childhood memories.... mostly around Heart Lake, Bobcaygeon and Glen Haffy and always with my Dad.
  23. Exactly what I was thinking Smokey .. when I saw that pearly irridescent glitter .... Lakers (and deep water Specks) came to mind ... if we ever get any ice I'll post a pic or two
  24. Great pics Dan ... hopefully 2007 will be just as good to ya !
  25. ...OK so tell me Im not the only one who looks at the ribbons and bows on presents thinking .... wow - look at those colours .... This was my project during cleanup yesterday ... look out lakers and specks !
