Awesome stuff!!

Awesome fish!

awesome stuff as usual Kevin!

awesome fish!

I'd go with the clown X-Rap and soft plastics too. I'd expect to see plenty of follows, and few takers. If you get a follower a suspending abit like an x-rap is key - give it a nice long pause 10+ seconds and then a slight twitch, then hang on!

Nicely done 24/7!

pretty cool!

If you walk it, you can fish the harbour as you walk

Thanks Ben - its one of my all time favs!

As far as I'm concerned, you only need 2 lures you'll find in those stores: #5 Mepps (Black Fury or Aglia) and a Clown X-Rap. There are all sorts for lures that will work, but those two have caught me more TO pike then any other! Started making my own lures for TO a while back with extra wight for shore casting... Heres a solid black fury TO pike

For casting... 1. Firetiger 9" Suick 2. Black Perch Magic Maker 3. Orange Belly 6" Perch Phantom 4. Yellow/black Mepps Black Fury musky killer 5. Silver/orage/black 7.5" Rockstar inline

All depends on the target species for me. I have a few smaller reels I typically use for bass that dont have a lot of line on em. I'm into my 3-4 season with the same spool of braid with no issue to speak of.

Palomar knot here to - I tied braid direct too all my lures unless im fishing for muskie or pike.

Incredible stuff man, looks like an amazing trip!

lol, nicely done gents!

I've always used 12 inch 80# fluro leaders for pike with zero issues.

Canon D10 for sure! Scugog: you may want to check your settings, it mosdef does audio on the videos...

great stuff TJ, looked like a good time was had by all!

Ive got a Shimano Calcutta and a Quantum Cabo CBC30PTs and I love em both. Both have seen heavy use in fresh and salt water and are a bit worse for the wear, but I still have faith in them both! Cabelas has the Cabo on sale for 100 (usually 185) - CBC30PTs 270/14 5.7:1 - Sadly the only have right hand retrieves left...

2-3 inch silver Len Thomson spoon caught me all sorts of fish down south, cant go wrong with a clown x-rap either!

I've tried several sub $20 pairs and they were all pretty crappy except the new Berkley glasses I got last summer for $5 at Walmart in the US. The Look good and dont feel cheap like the others I've owned.

I'm a lefty too! Never had trouble finding lefty reels though. Bass Pro brand and Cabelas brand are all righties (at least they used to be) but any other big brand should offer most of their reels in both.

Nicely done! thats an awe4soem day on the ice!

awesome stuff guys! Lungelarry, those big glide baits look deadly! Had an success on them?

very nice!
