You're killin' me man! Don't you ever fish on weekends! Good Work!

Just shoot me a text if ya want to head out on a weekend I Can usually get out for a early morning fish but its busy on the weekends.

I don't usually post steelhead reports but nailed a nice lake Erie piggy this morning and thought I would share .

Bad pic I hate fishing solo.

Nice chromers

Heh, sounds like my dad.

 

Try telling him there's no Pickerel in the Kawarthas.

Oh NO dont start that one LOL

It's been 3 years in January for me I also used champix but seeing my Dad go through and pass away from lung cancer and finding out the wife was prego was a big incentive also .I gained 40lbs and have lost 20 of it but still need to loose 40 more would love to be back to 180-5ish again .

Didn't see your other post but if ya had problems im pretty sure the from the first pic could have whipped some if needed LOL nice fish dinner will be delicious.

My brother was told by the instructer from his back on track program (for DUI) that all you have to do is go get the form from the Police station fill it all out and send it in with the fee enclosed which is very cheap I think he said $35 and wait it takes alot longer than paying some one to fast track it (which is all the private comp's do ) and they approve anyone that doesn't have violent offences I am going to try this method first (also was a dumbazz when I was younger ) can't hurt to try .

Ohhhh, I like the yellow one!!!

 

You did a fine job on all tho, they look great!!

Wow what a cool experience thanks for sharing it!!!

Well I was on the WFN ambassador site and saw your blog there and thought I would do a google search and wouldn't ya know it I was led to a OFC post from 2008 which asked the same ??? do hooks dissolve in a fish and Musky or specks replied with a quote from the minnesota DNR which I thought was interesting there is also a few articles that do suggest that they do in fact dissolve in a fish it's hard to say though without some real scientific studies to go by here's Musky or specks reply from the other post.

From Minnisota DNR page

Ask the DNR

Q. In its statements on catch-and-release, the DNR says it's better to leave a deeply im-bedded hook in a fish's mouth and cut the line than to rip the hook out. The hook will supposedly dissolve. But how do biologists know this? en

A. There is no existing scientific research on the topic, but DNR fisheries biologists have observed fish surviving with hooks in various stages of "being dissolved" in their bodies. And many anglers have caught fish with a partially dissolved hook in its gut.

Many variables determine how fast the hook will dissolve, and if the fish will survive at all. These include hook location (throat, stomach, mouth, etc.), hook size, fish size, temperature (most reactions occur faster at higher temperatures, so a hook would probably dissolve faster in the summer than in the winter). A hook in the mouth may dissolve, but it could also work loose and fall out. A hook in the mouth might hamper feeding behavior, but only temporarily.

A hook in the gill, however, will almost always prove fatal because it interrupts the respiratory process before it gets a chance to dissolve. Hooks in the stomach will nearly always dissolve, if internal organs have not received life-threatening damage from the hook (such as during a fight between fish and angler).

How long does it take for a hook to dissolve? Again there are lots of variables, such as hook size and fish size. DNR fisheries biologists estimate that it would take roughly two to three weeks for an ?average? hook to be dissolved by the ?average? fish?without too much indigestion.

I often will kill a fish because it is gut hooked and bleeding. Stainless steel hooks of coarse will not rust out. Of coarse any fish deep hooked that is kept has no chance for survival.

No it was not sunk, otherwise I would not have bought it.

 

It is working out for me, that is why I am able to give a to CO2 Inflatables.

thats good to hear

That sucks hope it works out for ya

caught this little monster a couple years ago

I'm wearing my hip waders and fishing vest and carrying a big downrigger rod when we go trick or treating he was trying to eat us after we told him sharks eat lots of fish LOL

yeah the soft plastic that moves on it's own LOL .

Do you know that it's against the Law to waste a gamefish also?? So it can be quite the argument !! So if your fish dies you can be charged !

I brought this up before and looked at they ask a CO site and they said if the fish is OOS or in a slot you will be charged if it's in your posession .I beleive it is to stop poachers from keeping what ever they want by just saying they were deep hooked and would have died .I thought the same thing but I was wrong and can admit it

That is awesome a member of this board place 5th with a 27lb+ sack good Job Magicfingers that 8lb toad is amazing.

nice

You got me already.

The whirlpool keeps you from getting there by boat or actually the 10' wall of water at the top of the whirlpool rapid. Italo does a show right there every couple of years I think with permision you can go down the maid of the mist parking and access the river that way .

Your a lucky man nice report!!!

Is it me, or are fall spawn steelies getting their spawning colours really early? I've caught tons of rosy cheek'd fish, I thought they only got their spawning colours later in November (but I could easily be wrong, plz correct me). Either way those are some gorgous chrome's.

I think, and it's just my opinion that they came in a bit earlier than normal this year so they are getting colored up earlier as well I know I caught my first steely 3-4 weeks earlier than last year.

PEOPLE DONT POST ANY MORE BECAUSE OF THE BULL FLAMING FROM OTHER MEMBERS OF THIS BOARD> I FISH 4 TIMES EVERY WEEK SINCE AUG FOR SALMON AND NOW TROUT BUT DONT LIKE THE HASSLES>>>

 

GOOD LUCK< YOU NEED ANY INFO PM ME

 

DAVE

There's your answer right there. People don't wanna listen to the "boot","flossing" comments every time they post a pic of a salmon.
