Verrrry nice fish jr!! Congrats...great pic!

Thanks Glen...I think..... LOL Yeah...I'm here far too much, but at least it's mostly at the office, where I have time to post..... This board has given a lot to me (and Bly)...it makes participating very easy....we've met a lot of great people via this board.

Great pics! I have no idea on the shark, but it has to be cool to catch some species that you cant get back home.

I'll look for the boat for sure! We have two Ontariofishing.net stickers on our boat...one on the bow and one near the stern....same thing goes for you ok?

Check this link.... http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/nothing/paypal.asp There is a legitimate class action suit that involves paypal, but the case number in your email does not match the case number from snopes.com, so I'd suspect the one you received is a scam of some sort. There is a link in that snopes article that you can click for more info...

Thankfully NO!!! LOL.

Gee...how did I know about this Lund?? LOL. Fish just a bonus? That's like saying "It's a honour just being nominated..." Have a great one Scott.

Well, hard to believe it's the Labour Day weekend already! What do you have planned? For much of Ontario, it's looking to be the picture perfect weekend. Light winds, temps in the mid 20's and no rain in the forecast. A slight cold front is coming through today, but only affecting the temps by a few degrees. Bly and I are going to try to head back to Sturgeon Lake on Saturday....and then a camping night in the backyard with the little one in our tent. Have a great long weekend everyone...looking forward to the reports. Be safe on the road and on the water!

I wish your daughter and her man all the best! Hoping they stay safe thru Gustav.

I always thought Stephen Harper was odd, but this is a fishing board.... Ohhhh...you mean private messages. I get odd PMs all the time. Most are from GCD....anyone else??? hehe

That looks like the ferocious shed spider....very similar to the dock spider except.... Oh forget it....bad joke....I'm not feeling that witty this morning.... LOL

SWEET boat CC!! I'm sure this is the nicest you've ever been to a nieghbour before....LOL. Have fun out there....

Congrats!!! It's always a bonus when you get into fish like that. Sorry to hear about the loss of your friend....maybe that was his/her way of letting you know they are ok....by sending you this awesome fish. Congrats again....hopefully the first of many for you!

Even though you had to leave early, you got into some nice bass. Mother nature sure has a way to let you know that she still rules doesn't she? I've seen Lake O go from smooth as glass to 4 foot rollers in 10 minutes before!!

Congrats!!! A retirement well earned I must say. Enjoy your retirement....and good luck!

When I had my boat slipped up north last month, I simply took the fuel line off and took it with me. Easy for me because mine's a tiller with the gas tank sitting right in front of it. Pulling plugs is a pain...is there a way to lock the cover down? If so, then just disonnect the spark plug wires....if they want to go thru the trouble to break the cover then I suppose it wouldn't help.

I was talking to a guy about this. Apparently, at a marina one night there were a bunch of thefts....some had locking mechanisms for the outboards, so they just cut through the transom around the bolts to get it off. If someone wants it badly enough they are going to take it....for the run of the mill opportunistic thief, the regular lock/deterrents are probably good enough.

Head to the docks where the big Dinner Cruise ship is docked. Cant miss it...just head down Water Street towards town. You can catch panfish right there with a simple hook, worm and bobber.

I heard the mayor of New Orleans on the radio this morning regarding this. He said they are ready right now for evacuation and at 72hours before projected landfall, they will start evacuating right away if the projected landfall is anywhere near them.

Never call something unsinkable....cause you know what will happen!! Glad to hear everyone was ok!

Yep...length alone doesn't really tell much. You'll need a girth measurement as well.

Thank you everyone...it was pretty cool working with someone on the other side of the world! Tour? Hmmm....I'll let you know on that one. Tours take away too much time from fishing, so I think I'll stay at home......hehe. Would love to hear your work when it's done! The internet can erase those miles...pretty incredible.

Those underwater pics are impressive!!! The fish doesn't look as impressed though....LOL. Thanks for taking the time to put all those reports together....I know it's a lot of work to do so. Looked like an amazing trip!!!

Wow....the amazing pics keep on coming....the plant/fungus life up there is very interesting to say the least....off to read part 3....

Great part one!!! Fish, scenery, relaxation....cant wait for part two....going to read it now....
