Scotia is getting hammered like the good ole days in the 60's and 70's

Always room to learn and improve.  You're an ex blue jacket. You'll do just fine.

Happy Birthday, old son.

 A belated Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your clan. It looks like you have got more than one good fish fry there.

Depends on how many neighbours suddenly show up😁

After all the hustle and bustle another Christmas is in the books.  Time for this jolly old elf to go out and play.

With most of the offered programs, the basic goes so far.  It's the extra protection that gets you.  Almost as much in fees as the cost of a new laptop.

Custom trailer with a smaller car topper boat?

Been a long while since we've been able to get together. It was good.  Big Cliff, crappieperchhunter, and yours truly had a great little GTG. Cliff, thank you for your gracious hospitality.  We had a laugh, shared stories, and even did some fishin.

Some folks will plant bucket potatoes, but have a tomato plant growing with them.  

We had our first feed of new spuds last week.  Will dig some more with the grandkids

This thread is still running??????

I sure remember the old days of smelt fishing but those days are long gone. I have fished smrlts through the ice down in Wellend and it was a lot of fun. They seamed to be smaller than what i remembered but tasted just as good. Would love to get into enough for a feed again but won't hold my breath. 😊

They seemed to have disappeared from those grounds since the salvage yard closed. Starting to weed up.

No dumping fish parts, we have just gone to bi weekly garbage pickup, should be able to crawl to the curb by itself by then.  

You should see the poor trash collectors when they go to collect my compost. I've seen a couple of the fellas turn various shades of gray and green🤢🤮 

UgliBoys is looking forward to it.

Merry Christmas to one and all.

Glad to hear good to see ya arround again

I'm always around, just don't have the time to just sit in front of the puter.  Not when I gotta  produce, produce, produce. Spare time goes to more precious activities.

Ugly mug but nice pictures 😊. If you get up this way stop in, got some sample jigs I would like to see if you can replicate. 

 

I try to make a couple trips up to P"Boro every year.

It just keeps getting better, turns out Wholesalelobster AKA East Coast Lobster is nothing but a broker. They make it look like you are getting it shipped from Nova Scotia when in fact it was shipped from a seafood place in Kitchener. Total scam! 

Just like those guys on the side of the highway, or at the market, selling seafood. It is all bought at the wholesale distributor and passed off as fresh off the plane. No different than the fake farmers and the food terminal.  

Been a long spell since I last posted.  Been busier than all get out with tackle, farm and family.  Still getting in my share of fishing. A few pics from Saskatchewan and from Timmins. George is starting to get almost to big to pick up and squeeze.

Was there a few years back. 2014 to be exact. A few posts about Biscotasi. Brian is a good host. Fishing was good. Take a guide on the first day. It pays off big.  Only point of supply is the General Store at the landing. Make sure you get gas at the corner before you pull onto the Sultan rd.  And some sections of the timber road can get rough.

Yeah, there was a family that owned a thousand acre plot around the cottage.. some were nice😅.. we really didn't have to worry about thieves because they kept them away.. of course we never left anything out near the road because it would grow legs and end up at their main farm down the highway... 

There are a few "original" families in the area, owning large tracts of. land and numerous businesses. They keep the neighbourhood peaceful.

Keeping busy is the key Bruce. Getting out fishing once in awhile is also a good thing.  Take care of yourself.

 

I still don't know how to take care of myself

Contrary to rumours, and any bad odors around here, I'ma still alive and a kicking. Past 2 years have been a whirlwind of activity. Nary a day to catch one's breath.  Was nice to see a few familiar faces on Sunday in Peterborough.
