Made one out of a 55 gal drum

Went and looked at some land on the west end of the lake. The water looks really weedy but it was hard to tell how deep it is. Anyone spend time on this lake? People seem to say decent things about the lake but I can't tell if it's deep enough to dock a boat

I plan on giving it a go for lakers but was hoping to get into some good walleye and pike

Heading to herridge lake lodge in 9 days. Can't wait. Gear is gathered and ready to pack. Lol. I've searched this place in posts but if anyone has anything to share that would be great. Post report when I return

the last few weekends, I've had an open seat on my boat. I can't guarentee that I'll put us on fish lol but I've been looking for a partner in crime the last couple of weekends. I usually get out on sundays. I live in Brooklin and normally hear to the Kawarthas. PM me if you want to wet a line sometime. cheers

70 hp suzuki. top end is around 40 mph but the cool thing is it will run on the low end about 1.5

Now if I get skunked it has to be the weather.

Wanted to post pic of my new toy.

thanks for the feedback guys. I can always count on this site for some things I didn't know existed

hey everyone. Been off OFC during the playoffs but now its time to come out of my basement, BTW..... GO HAWKS!! another happy day. anyway...lol my normal fishing trip is cancelled this year as no one else can go. I was looking for a drive or fly in on the eastern end of ontario. The only real catch is that I'm going alone so safety becomes a concern. I've done the search and there are some great lodges taht everyone has been to but I don't see much in the way of accomidations for one. Any suggestions (besides make more friends lol)?

Great stuff thanks again

thanks gents I've done remote up about 5 hours NW of Thunder bay and was thinking fly in might be in order good heads up on land locked. We had a similar experience where we met some guys that had flown in and they were upset that we found a much cheaper way into the lake

buddy of mine and I are looking at doing our first ever fly in trip. We both live east of TO and are looking for something remote but North East ON. Anyone had any good experiences or make any recomendations? I don't just want to google a place and decide from that. any feedback of where to go or where not to go would be appreciated. like to target walleye, pike and smallies mostly but wouldnt turn down laker action I'd really like to go somewhere remote and not run into a lot (or any) people. thanks!

I picked up a dehydrator at the outlet mall while passing through barrie. Cost me like $30 and I use it a couple of times a month. I've made moose and beef jerky, dried fruit and dried herbs works like a champ. Should have got one sooner. you really can't get much easier

only lived here 5 years but am glad my wife turned me on to this Canadian tradition. i can only imagine how big of a part of everyone's life this must touch

thanks for the info kickingfrog

The wife and I are looking to rent an RV for a week and head to the park area for some much needed relaxing. Planning on doing some kayaking, biking, hiking, fishing etc. just get away for a bit. Ashamed to admit but in living here for 5 years, this will be my first visit to Algonquin. I’m looking for any insight on where to camp and any “must do’s” Not really going to be roughing it this time so that the wife has a good experience. Thanks

RT thanks for posting. I was about to post the same question lol I was looking at the smoker craft with the suzuki

I"m going Friday. In the market for a new boat!

if its not too late, count me in please

I quit back in April and can finally say that I'm a non-smoker. I started dipping at 11 and smoking at 13. Finally at 38 I woke up and said enough. Keep at er guys. It gets easier. I started jogging as well (if you can call it that lol) That has really helped. For myself, I found it too much to think about quitting as one big process. I just kept telling myself that if I still really wanted a smoke tomorrow then I would consider it. Each day kept saying that. It worked for me. Find something healthy to replace it with and good luck!

Looking for any information about a little lake called Spring lake. Its just south on Bancroft. Not looking for any spots or anything just wondering if anyone might know about ice thickness, local bait shop to call etc. If anyone has been and has anything they are willing to share I'll take any insight. just looking to try a new lake and try for something different thanks!

sounds good man

Got the M3 for christmas and was wondering if anyone had used. I had the Ice Cube brand for a while but found that in really cold temps it was tempermental to use. Just looking for feedback... As background. I walk out on the ice so like the weight aspect but i broke the last one (ice cube) setting up in the wind. hope its made better than the ice cubes or should i just take it back, save some penies and buy a pull over? thanks for the feedback and here is to hoping the weather gives us some ice! thanks! Hud

sure does! thanks
