Sorry buddy, never had a cat put down but 6 dogs so far always hurts.

Thanks guys, fantastic list.

so Other then Bugspray, Sun block, Glasses what else does everyone bring??

did they really need to keep it? sure its a record, either way I'd CPR.

I lost a good one to a spro frog today too

I may be the worst offender here lol

completely unexpected from where we were fishing too.

Less then a week after I pulled my PB out of Lake Baptiste I went fishing with my room mate and he dragged this hawg out of a local river. She was 19.5 inches long. We estimate 4.5ish, due to the belly And this little guy

Ya I thought it was close to 4 either way my PB.

I didnt get a measurment either

I caught this guy up at my cottage at 2 am 1 foot off the end of the dock while pulling in a jitterbug, scared the crap out of me and my girlfriend but he was hooked pretty bad(no gill action) so wanting him to get home asap I didnt weigh or measure him, can anyone give me some estimates. I was thinking around 4lbs 22 or more inches. Anyone else?

lol that might be an idea

Hey everyone I recorded this video earlier today just to show you how to make a hatcam for some awesome hands free fishing. If you like it feel free to rate it and leave a comment on youtube. Thanks all

I assume your coming to borden for a military course, anyhow, little lake, I run topwaters there all the time, catch bass and pike, 7 - 12 fow. Frogs work for me, they rent boats there for 70 a day

synchronized tarpon swimming

Got nothing tonight, lol theres a running joke with one of my friends that he's a curse to the catching of fish. We have been out with him 4 times and not only does he not catch fish but no one does, not once lol. Hence tonights result.

heading back out again tonight, might try for some walleye again.

ya it gets pretty wide at certain points. I like this little spot though

Can we say HATCAM!!!

made me tear up some. Terribly sorry pal, cant even imagine. My thoughts are with you.

BPS, but I need to find one I can order online from, no luck thus far.

my spinning reel is workin just fine for the bass Im catching lol.

Decided to take a trip to one of my favorite shore fishing spots on the Ottawa River in North Eastern Ontario today. I really enjoy fishing this body of water, it has a nice slow current, but on most days its not quite enough to have an effect on topwater fishing. The Ottawa River is 1,271 kilometers (790 mi) long and drains directly into the Lake of Two Mountains and the St. Lawrence River near Montreal Quebec. The species found in the Ottawa River range from fish as large as Muskie, Northern Pike and Sturgeon to medium sized fish like Smallmouth and Largemouth Bass, Walleye, Catfish and Brown Trout down to pesky Panfish like Sunfish and Perch. Today i was fishing a remote area of the river only accessible through CFB Petawawa, I like fishing on the base because there isn't a lot of open access to these shore spots, meaning fishing pressure is slim to none, enabling me to catch more, bigger fish. I showed up to my spot at just after 7 pm, two people were fishing the area I usually wet my line so I reluctantly faced the west directly into the sun. Knowing this wasn't going to be very productive I decided to toss my Rapala Minnow Rap a little bit and tighten my technique a little bit. After about 25 minutes the shore was clear and I was able to pick my spots, I posted up on one of the rocks that taper down into the river. The rock platform I was standing on lead out into the river about 2-3 feet before a steep 4-6 foot drop. I changed over to my Clackin' Rap with the exaggerated front treble hook, second cast, FISH ON! Put up a nice little fight, got him in, measured him, 19 inches and a hair over two pounds. I decided to change up and throw on my white, chartreuse spinner. After working the visible structure for about 20 minutes and not getting anything I decided the water was calm enough to use a hula popper, which just the other day I caught a nice sized walleye with in this exact same place. A good friend of mine that was with me, Jim, had never fished top water before, I gave him a 5 minute crash course, lent him my 06 Frog Hula Popper and sent him on his way, I attatched the 05 Perch and walked about 15 feet into the water to cast, about knee deep. After about 3 casts I turned and noticed Jim watching me work my popper, when I reeled he reeled, when I popped he popped. The only problem with this was when Topwater fishing diligence is key, you have to watch that lure every step of the way. Of course, while he's watching my lure his gets hit, luckily he was able to collect himself and land his first topwater bass, not a monster by any means but a small victory for sure. Following his fish we decided to pack it in for the day, although we only got one bass each i consider it a successful trip. In my mind when you base the guage for success on numbers and not the enjoyment of the actual experience you've lost the passion of the sport. All in all the Ottawa river has been a pretty productive source for me, only being skunked once (last night). If anyone out there is considering a trip out on it I highly recommend it, but as always a detailed planning is needed. Here's a little video from youtube of some Muskie Fishing. On the Ottawa River.

lol you chose the only weekend im not free, On the labour day weekend Im going to a family cottage on Lake Baptiste, gonna go assault the bass for about 10 hours a day . If your ever in the area again let me know though
