big guy

We we staying at a place on Kashawakamak Lake years ago when one of the guys came in saying he had caught a pike in an inflow area that had a perch shad rap in its mouth. The same lure my brother had lost to a pike bite off an hour or so before. So... from my personal experience, if a fish is still willing to eat with a lure stuck in its mouth, i would say they dont feel pain. My brother got his shad rap back.

It was a buddy of mine fishing in another boat with 2 other guys, also friends of mine. The other guys said he should keep due to where we were fishing, that he'd never get caught etc. It was 3 cm over the slot. Not a huge fish by any means. I wanted to find out if they all could be charged, to try and get the other 2 guys to straighten up and fly right. But i guess the answer is they wouldnt, so...

If 1 person, fishing with 1 or more other people in a boat, catches and keeps an oversize fish, does every person in the boat get fined? Thanks for the replies

female fox or vixen. They have a crazy call. First time I heard it was under our bedroom window at 3 in the morning, nearly sh!t myself.

people park on streets near the launch area when busy. Fenelon marina has a pay launch for 10 bucks, but you also have to park along the street a bit farther away.

Its only strong when they have the dam open and thats not the case right now. They rebuilt the concrete ramp a few years back, its a bit of a weird place for a ramp but its a good one and there are a few places to park.

Thanks Terry for the link and Irish for the 2nd, will do.

On the verge of buying a boat from a guy and wondering what, if any thing, has to be done regarding the boats numbers that are on the bow. Does anything have to be changed over with the Department of Fisheries regarding those numbers? And if so, can it be done online? Thanks

That is nutz

Thanks for your reply. Was unaware of their failure rate. Now shifting gears, looking at canoe style vests now that would allow maximum arm movement for casting. I dont know, maybe I'll just forget it.

Was researching the purchase of self-inflating life jackets and apparently they aren't recommended for people who either can't or are weak swimmers. Does anyone know why this is?

Thanks for your reply. I was surprised to see the upper part of the lake being so shallow, according to a map i found online. So i guessed you mainly fished the lower part, more northernly part of the lake?

Rented a cottage on Hay Lake for September and was wondering if anyone has ever fished it. There's not as lot of info on it that I can see, the owners will have some, but was hopeful I could get a head start from the fishing minds on here. Even the the fish online tool is not very helpful. Thanks
