I'm sorry, Junior can't go fishing until he is 12 years old and capable of writing the junior anglers test. most of us started at a wee age. Should we deprive future generations of another simple pleasure because adults behave like !!! I could just as easily argue that no one operate a canoe/kayak without ORCA II, or better, certification. Campers should have to take a class in woodcraft, and all should have basic first aid before being allowed loose in the great outdoors. I mean, really folks! If we are going to be s we might as well go full out. A test, certificate, license, will never impose or bring about compliance. Enforcement does.

That there looks like some fun.

Glad to see you and the boys having fun.

I'm watching less and less, as they fill their time slots with the same crap you find on every other channel.

If that be the case....? Considering the amount of crap floating arounf yacht clubs and marinas, Boats should be banned from tying up in public marinas. There are enough wealthy slobs who still dump their garbage over the side.

The problem, today, is that there are now a lot of counterfeit certified cheques floating around. No different than counterfeit money. The only security a bank has is to wait for direct confirmation from the issuing branch. Until that verification the risk is all yours. Same if someone pays you in counterfeit currency. YOu bear the loss.

Don't know if they are still around. S.W.O.B.A.

Fer the bye up in Barrie. One more from the blue water bunch.

Well done there. Just gotta love backyard fishin

The farm types need 4 more hot dry days like today before they can hope to work a field. My pepper patch is still submerged and I have 200 plants raring to go. Mind you the garlic is growing at a phenomenal rate.

So I forget to pay a bill or two

Beautiful looking fish Jacques.

You are a very lucky man. Cherish every minute of it.

Just a hair over 39" and 26" around.

Hope you caught a couple of "keepers"

From first cast onward twas a great day on the water catching a very wide variety of specimens. The highlight of the day came only 10 minutes into my morning. I'm talking to some folks walking their dogs, and they are commenting on how they have never seen any fish caught. At that moment, the rod starts to bounce and double over. I set the hook on a log, then it starts swimming away a good 100ft. Adjust the drag a little and turn him then he doubles back to me and races out to Lake Ontario. Finally get her to shore and into the net. She rips through the net as I lift her out onto shore. All the while, Peanut has been diving into the water after the beast. This will be my biggest for the year, and probably my best fight in a long time. Good thing I took my meds before going out Kept myself a nice brekkie as well

Sounds like a great time on the water.

Enjoy these days to the fullest. They come and are gone so quickly.T he pics of your wee ones triggered some great memories.

Can't be a legit list. No Red Fisher!!! Secondly, the Lindners will be excluded because of their religious enthusiasm. That and a few less than amicable parting of the ways.

The well is running dry and they are just trying to find some new cashflow. "We're sorry. The test supervisor was not suitably qualified, therefore we need you to write a new boater exam. Will that be cash or visa?"

Sure sounds like a great weekend.

Last time I fished the derby, it was also a high water year and a late season. Most of the top fish were caught along the edges in the submerged brush.

It's been a little while since I put up a report despites having fished 4 of the past 7 days. Nothing spectacular, just staying close to home and hitting a few spots. Lots of yellow and white perch for feasting on, but nobody wants to see 100 panfish pics Peanut sure had a lot of fun chasing, and eating, the catch. Here's a wee sampling of the past few day's activity. Even managed to catch some rays in the process.

Stopped raining by 930 and the clouds parted at 11. The sun shone and the fish co-operated.

Unless the fish are being kept for consumption, catch and kill of gamefish is a big no no! In which case the local MNR office should be getting involved.
