Just went through this in the spring. It's the worst .  Get another one soon it will help. 

I hear ya I hunt 64b with the Inlaws for first week of rifle.   We all take the week off  and there's not many passes unless it's with a fawn or we're out of doe tags.    We usualy fill the freezers pretty good for the 4 family's.  Wish I had more time to bow hunt but the full week of rifle is usualy all I get.  We have a few big bucks arround  the fist pic was chasing does this week.

Getting fired up for deer hunting, anyone else?  Trying to catch one of these two  slipping this year

Fuel line issues gave caused 80% of all issues I have ever had with an outboard.    I would replace from tank to motor. 

Was a great trip thanks for joining worked out great.

Yeah...not often you see that inland sea look like a mill pond.

Looks like good times and nice fish ! Thanks for posting.

Yea we got 3 flat days to run about we usualy only get 2   When its choppy we put the smaller Boat in the big boats wake and go slow.  But usually just tuck in out of the wind  not much you can do on that lake. 

On the pickerel right under the hwy at marina head west and watch out for rocks. 

Never thought of this .  Im  Going to scratch up my balls lol.  We run a helix 10 on a big ram mount will  droop when taking a pounding. Thanks! 

Time again for the annual  fishing trip.   One problem,  one of the OG members moved to New Brunswick.  He was  going to fly out and ride up.  Then he got a new job and he was out. Then he was back in again, said boss was cool with it.   2 weeks out we all get the message he can't make it.    What to do... I have a few maniac fishing buddies who may be able to drop what they are doing and leave for a 10 day trip at a week's notice so I start calling.   The first one I called was a strike out but provided a promising lead.  Chuckenwind from the board here.  We had camped and  fished once previous for a few days for some lost Aurora trout in a snowstorm , he seemed possibly just crazy enough.  I  Sent him a message explaining the trip and his reply was " crossing Nipigon in a 14 ft boat sounds like an adventure, I'm in "    *I in no way reccomend doing this*

Almost died on the way up, came over a knoll in the road and big dumb Moose was standing in the road.  Put the binders on as hard as i could and steered off the road and arround him at 50kmh close enough to hear his hoves on the ashphalt.  Not so much fun loaded down with gear and a 20 ft boat attached to the bumper.

Fishing was tougher than years prior for Brookies and Pike   for us  but 10 lb lakers in 10 -20 fow were in unlimited supply as usual and a blast on light tackle .  Had a great trip with Some old friends and my Dad.   Was weird with no campfires allot less whisky was drank but did have to do a beer run mid week with the warmer weather we were all thirsty. 

Enough talking  here's some of the better fish and scenery.

Till next year!

I drilled ends of crack,  brazed then slathered in 3m5200  then riveted a patch over top with closed end rivits.  Held up for 1 season so far

Boujie a.f.   I like it.  

I'm immune to mosquitoes I welt for a day but zero itch. (Also immune to poison ivy)   however I hate the buggars.    Thermacell. And Deep woods off.  They will hover but not land .   Works for me. 

Lol edited apologies for my part in digging up old thread. 

My best bud"  Foosa "or the last 15 years just lost him in April.   Working up the courage to get a new one. 

Nice nothing gets my heart pumping like a gobbler before sunrise.  I was out on opener nothing but a faint gobble all morning. 

Nice,  have I had  fisher or two over the summer they are cool.  Below are my favorites from last year 

I could use a beach day...or week... nice trip!

I'm not wasting one moment of my hunting season chasing cormorants unless there is a bounty

    The government should have grown some balls on this one and done a cull or egg kill years ago before it became a problem. Instead of taking the PR hit  they are hoping hunters will do their dirty work And have no issues with hunters looking bad instead of themselves.

Glad to hear good to see ya arround again

Nice... its pretty much the only fish in ontairo I have never boated.   Going to have to give it an honest go one of these times. 

Bird 525 head unit 

Have power and transducer but transducer bracket is mangled.  Easy to rig up for ice fishing.   Trade for 6 beers  located in kitchener.

They are probably the most annoying thing on the water.

No sir that's a sailboat while trolling lake o.

I have some Coldwater with 5-6 seasons under there belt still holding  up well.   Yet to blow up a convector but some are on last legs. 

Will look into the striper fishing did a fair bit  when I lived I  NC.   Was hoping to get offshore for some real big stuff.   I'm going to call a few charters next week see what they say.  I'll be in shediac sp? .  NW of Moncton   love to jig up some cod or tuna if there is even a recreational season. 

Had a pal move out to live beside the ocean. Im going to head out for two weeks the 3rd week on Sept.  Anyone local to let me know what's biting that time of year wanting to do an ocean charter. 

Did you get ipiot?  Assuming you did.   I generaly use mine in auto pilot mode  where it will maintain a heading  helps cut down on the fiddling with the footpedal when working a section of shorline I find the standard a.p.  works better than the advanced for this.
