  1. Curious what are the ear plugs for? Bugs? I usually bring a hanger with and some rope to hang and dry stuff. When it rains up there it rains.
  2. Thanks for the feedback all. I brought the reel into a local shop and the guy mentioned he sees this problem often with the clutch bars. He actually had a bunch of other reels with the same problem waiting to be fixed. The cost to fix it is $25 which is fair but it wont be ready for a month or so.
  3. Was out on the kawarthas last week using my Shimano Cardiff 401a baitcaster and during a retrieve my clutch bar would not engage. I was able to press it down but when i tried reeling the clutch wouldnt engage and I wasnt able to reel in line. I opened the reel up and it looks like the clutch bar is not catching for some reason. I am able to freely turn the handles but line is not being reeled in. Anyone run into this issue with this reel before and what did you guys do to fix it? I know its hard to understand the problem without actually seeing it but hopefully i explained it as best as I could. Thanks, Gary
  4. Went out this Saturday for a day of bassin at our favourite lake. It was a real hot sweltering day, the sun was out with no clouds and no wind. We did quite well with both lm and sm. The bass were caught on texas rigged powerbaits, spinner baits and Yum dingers. Water was approx 72F and fish were caught at various depths, from 3fow to 17fow. First fish of the day. Action shot of a nice sm Biggest bass for us that day. Some other bass we caught during the day.
  5. Went up for our annual trip to the bush June 6-13. As usual it was awesome, we caught quite a number of walleye and pike. The walleye were on average larger than how we did last year however the Pike were not in the shallows yet and we did not raise anything of good quality. Couldn't believe the bugs were not out the whole week we were there! Which made for a very comfortable week. Flight out was delayed by 3-4 hours due to the weather. The ride was quite bumpy and was very close to using the good ole vomit bag. Didn't help that we wolfed down a foot long sub an hour prior to the flight. Some of the Walleye caught during the week By the way do you guys know what kind of fish this is? Caught a bunch of them all week. Various pictures from the week Until next year.
  6. We were there on Saturday and Monday this past long weekend. Both days we did well fishing the shallow bays for Pike. We were using red spinner baits, johnson silver minnows and in line mepps spinners. The pike were not the largest but the quantity was there. When we went last year same time we were blanked so dont feel so bad.
  7. Was up there for the may 24 weekend and caught a couple of pike along the shore. What we did was we walked all along the shoreline casting spoons and Husky Jerks. The pike were caught where the shore curves into small bays. Good luck the scenery is nice up there.
  8. Actually the colour of the grub didnt really matter. I bought a tub of Gulp's and wanted to use them up on this trip. We were on a lake off the Wekyakastik River near Moosebunks neighbourhood.
  9. I would approximate we caught a little over 200 Pike and Pickerel between 2 guys over the week. It was a new lake they opened up a couple years back and it held a lot of fish. We had access to 3 other lakes but the main lake was good enough. It was my first time up in this area of Ontario and we are hooked.
  10. Went on our annual trip to northern Ontario in mid June. The fishing was very good for Walleye and Pike. The water level was much higher compared to previous years due to the longer winter we had. The bugs were quite bad when we went up but after a few days of not showering they seemed to leave us alone. Most Walleyes were caught with a jig and plastic and the Pike were caught on long crankbaits/spinnerbaits and topwater. View from our site This is the average size we caught all week. Until next year. Gary
  11. Flew in north of Cochrane june 14-21st and the black flies were pretty bad.
  12. Was out on Cameron last Saturday and the temp was 68.5F
  13. We were at Rice for 3 days last weekend. We did well with green Jig with pigs fishing very slowly in and around Sugar Bush Island. One of us even caught a Musky on the jig and pig. For small mouth we did well with ribbed tube jigs around grasshopper and margaret island. Good luck. the weather looks like it will be really nice.
  14. Did some net searching and found a place where you can canoe out to your own site. It is called Long Lake which is just north of the Kawarthas. Looks decent. Lets hope the fishing is good too. Tks to all for your help.
  15. Thanks for the phone number doug. I called them and they do not have a secluded site. I took the family to Algonquin a couple years ago and was hoping for a change of scenery. Will keep looking to see where I can find another site. Tks
