  1. There always a chance to catch a pike, bass or salmon - but fishing is really tough this time of year at the Islands!
  2. Shimano Compre for sure!
  3. Great report, there were some beauty specks!
  4. While Shimano is my top choice for reels, I cant say enough good things about that Daiwa Megaforce.I got one this spring and have used it or smallmouth bass fishing all year and I really like it. It was $59 USD and as far as I'm concerned you can't find a better baitcast reel for the money. It's probably the easiest baitcast reel I've used, great for a beginner.
  5. Well done! Thats impressive for an ultralite!
  6. Canon is my favorite, although Olympus offers a great fishermans camera - its can go underwater, handle cold temps and is somewhat shock proof = Olympus 1030sw I've never used one, but in theory they seem great! I've got a Canon G5 (5mp), S2 (5mp) and Rebel XTi (10mp) and a Canon GL1 DV cam. The G series are really solid cameras with a lot of features for some one who wants more then a point and shoot, but less then an dSLR.
  7. My short answer is yes, but most of the time I don't think it does. The guys above are right, it depends on many factors. I usually carry around 2 rods with me, one with lighter mono, and one with heavy braid. I use braid 99% of the time, but if its not working I switch to mono. Most of the time this switch makes no difference at all. To me its not so much how you fish, but where.
  8. Great photos! I'm hoping to head up to Newfoundland next spring!
  9. Good to see the lures are catching some fish! Thanks for the plug Grant, nice job!
  10. awesome stuff, gott love those feisty Bog musky!
  11. We'll find out pretty soon!!
  12. Thats the fish that dreams are made of right there...amazing!
  13. That looks like an awesome day on the water! Last time I fished with Brian all I caught was a cold!
