One of my peeves is the garbage "some" people leave behind when fishing from the shore near bridges in this area.

 

Please do not leave any garbage AND maybe even pick up the garbage the guy before you left... (the excuse that I did not put it there.. so I am not going to pick it up... sucks!"

 

I am always picking up garbage left under the bridge (and also on islands from campers) where I live.

 

This is a beautiful and clean area. Let's work together to keep it that way!

 

 

thanks for your help... and have fun fishing...!

 

the cap't

This is a little out of left field...

Have I done something for you to question my cleanliness or my respect towards nature?

**Edit**

My friends family also owns two cottages on Nipissing (which is where I'm visiting)... I think they've been respecting their properties for quite some time now.

My buddy is pretty confident I'll be catching lots of pike and walleye off his dock but I want to keep my options open!!

1 carp, 1 hour, not a bad day!

The carp looks HUGE but I believe that's just the blur!

GJ Dude! Love the pics!

I hope to add some numbers to our team! Looks like I've got some work cut out for me!

Great report, keep em coming!

Nippissing (like the rest of Zone 11 that isn't exceptioned) opens for the season on the 3rd Saturday... ie the 15th at 12:01 am.

Any money says I'm drinking a brew tossing a glow spoon hahaha at just that moment.

awesome fish!!!

nice fish dude. looks like some fond memories!

anywhere to rent a tinny/canoe there??

Thanks for the tips guys! I really appreciate it!

were you going? may be able to help you out with areas to try from

 

i fish the west arm area. I know that area pretty well and can help you around there, I launch from Laving, and further down the 64 there are some good spots to go from shore around there if you want.

west end close to the town of lavigne

a little bit more north east

between cash bay and laviighe

So probably close hahaha. Hook me up via PM or post it. I don't know the area. My buddy says we can just catch tons off his dock, I'd like to get out there for everything and anything! I believe Pike opens on the Saturday and I'd love to land a monster But I'm hoping to get drunk enough to eat a fish or two, and I hear walleye are good eats!

Nice fish dude!

Any idea on baits and presentation? I'm thinking painted jigs with some sort of soft plastics (switch it up) and just bounce it off bottom.

Any tips, tricks, hints, suggestions?

Heading to buddies cottage and we are land locked, but its probably for the best

If I were in charge of the MNR I would be sitting in my big office enjoying my awesome salary knowing that I have an amazing pension to follow.

Oh ya, I'd also help some fish too!

Sweet carp! I need to get out fishing! Been super busy lately!

Thanks, guys....I grabbed one first thing this morning at the CT around the corner from where I work...only one in stock (go figure!!!!!!!!!)....has a two year warranty and a spare prop. Should suffice for what I want it for...basically just puttering around near shorelines. My 15 hp Merc trolls fine.

I'm going to check my local CTC when I get off work today.

Humm new with a year warranty, can't go wrong.

that is awesome lol

My 17 year old daughter just got accepted to the Ontario Ranger's Program. This will be her first step to her eventual goal of a placement with the MNR, or a similar organization. Anyway, she's off to Sleeping Giant, just east of Thunder Bay, for an 8 week stint. This looks like a grand opportunity for Dad to be the hero and drive her up to her Summer job... Oh, yeah, I hear that there's fishing up that way too...

 

Hints are always welcome as to a good place to wet a line, if you know the area...

If the fishing is good, you'll be bringing "care packages" every weekend!

Sorry I have no tips for you! Good luck to your daughter.

He's fine. He wears scuba gear to wade. It just looks kinda funny seeing the 13 footer with a hand attached sticking outa the creek.

I would love to see a picture of that!

Nice post dude! I would of started another topic! Then again.. I don't catch as many fish hahahahaha

I don't know why you aren't out smallie hunting

Nice fish none the less!

I had a picture somehwere of me doing exactly that....knitting on the side of a river instead of fishing. I'll look for it..

lolol. I should toss one of my wife's unfinished knitting projects into my tackle bag and use it for my next skunk report

That looks awesome! I just need to get my buddy who loves hiking into fishing...And I'll be making trips like this all the time!

Sweet report, looked like a great trip...and considering some of my fishing days I'd say you did well!

Just play it safe and quit fishing. Maybe pickup knitting or something.

Not the for the people I have trained, and there is a cardio requirement.

They dropped the fitness test in 2007, I was the last group to take a fitness test... Although I don't know who the hell could fail it.

And PT during basic is laughable, just pretend you are trying hard and they can't say anything to you.

Neat stuff! Look at those fitness requirements:

 

20 pushups

20 situps

30 knee bends

 

And no cardio requirements.

 

Those were the days when the players used training camp to get into playing shape.

Still more than the requirements to get into our army! lol
