Hmmm... Nicay muskay Raf. Je impresser. Ok..it's not French, but it'll have to do...LOL.

Sounds like a great day to me! I've never fished that area, but good luck out there. Take a few pics next time and post 'em!!
-
Not a long weekend...
-
Cool...fishing and a fencing tournament!! So, how does that work exactly? Does each competitor stand in their own boat? Or does one board the other. Does the winner take the other persons boat and fish? Details....we want details.
-
I just had an idea. Put a hot dog cart on my boat and sell them to boaters/anglers out on the Kawarthas.... How much would you pay for a nice fresh hot dog out on the water? I'd probably part with $5....LOL.
-
Wow...cant wait for them to get closer to shore so I get a stab at them too! Those are some NICE sized fish there! How many FOW did you catch those in?
-
Great report and good to see members hooking up and getting out there! Some nice lunkers caught there....good job!

LAKE NIPISSING REPORT (pics and short videos)
ccmtcanada replied to lunkerbasshunter's topic in General Discussion
Another great report! For some reason I couldn't see the videos...just took me to the photobucket login screen. Fishing may have been tough, but you got into some nice bass! Maybe those juvenile ducks were picked up at a party that got out of hand..... And...that is one scary looking leech...don't know if I'd even want to touch it to put on a hook....LOL. -
It was tough fishing and rough waters, but I'm willing to bet you had a better time than I did sitting at the office!!! LOL.

always a great day when kids are catchin fish
ccmtcanada replied to workwear's topic in General Discussion
Gotta love fishing with the kids...esp when they are doing the catching. My 6 year old says "What if I catch the biggest fish and you dont get anything?". I say "I really hope that happens"...and I mean it!! LOL. Here's a thread about posting pics....scroll donw the page and you'll see some pictures on how to post them in here. http://www.ofncommunity.com/forums/index.p...c=20729&hl= -
LOL...great report Glen! I was wondering when we'd see another report...it's been a while. So...someone was in your secret spot....ya think the internet gone and done it?? hehe. Nice carp too...they are fun to fight aren't they? I'll update the tourny standings on Monday...it's gonna be a close race to the finish this year!

Wow...looks fantastic! I cant make it, but thanks for the opportunity.

Loosing my favorite Fishing hole to Ants!
ccmtcanada replied to Anton Kanagasuntheri's topic in General Discussion
Oh yeah...forgot to add, that this is typically something you have to do repeatedly...one or two applications is rarely enough, since there could be multiple colonies in the area. -
Loosing my favorite Fishing hole to Ants!
ccmtcanada replied to Anton Kanagasuntheri's topic in General Discussion
Hmmm....raid wouldn't work for long anyways. You need an insecticide that doesn't kill them right away....the workers take the poison back to the queen, where it will eventually die. Go to CTC or Home Depot...check out their insecticide sections...most ones specifically for ants will have this slow acting insecticide. Good luck! -
SWEET report Will! Looked like a bug-filled amazing time up there. Congrats on the PB Pike too! One of these days Bly and I will do a fly in somewhere...maybe for our 10th anniversary.... Thanks for putting the report together!

Wireless carriers to add text charges
ccmtcanada replied to kickingfrog's topic in General Discussion
When I had rogers as my cell phone carrier, THEY would send me SPAM text messages. I'd check my phone and what do I see? "Check out rogers.com for the latest offers on internet phone". If they are still doing that then that's likely why they have no plans at this time. To put the onus on the consumer to call to dispute spam is ridiculous. They costs just to run a cost center would be huge for that. -
Semi new angler, need help getting started again.
ccmtcanada replied to Trax416's topic in General Discussion
First off, welcome to the board! I was in your shoes two years ago. I fished as a kid, and then stopped when my dad's friend sold his cottage as that's where I fished. Fast forward about 25 years and I picked up a rod again. I started with a 6' 6" cheap medium combo from Canadian Tire and it caught me lots of fish. That rod is now retired and hanging on the wall in my basement. There is no need to break the bank...especially if you are not sure what you are looking for. I started cheap....got to know the feel and action at least one rod so I'd know how to compare when looking at mid range or expensive rods. Without doing that, I could have spent a bunch of money on an expensive rod that maybe I hated. Anyhow, for bass and pike, I use a medium setup...spinning reel spooled with 30 pound power pro. Use a leader for pike. There are lots of opportunities within the GTA to fish, and when I started out I found the information on this site a great starting point.... http://www.mnr.gov.on.ca/en/Business/LetsF...L02_165427.html If you wanted to head to inland lakes, the Kawarthas are a great place, however shore spots are hard to find because of the number of cottages that seem to line the shores. I haven't found a good shore spot up there that would get me into bass....and there is no pike....but you could catch a musky at night. Many people will float fish with minnows for Walleye at night as well. Good luck...and keep asking your questions....you've come to the right place! -
I know what you mean about the curse. Whenever I fish with someone in our usual shore spots, we get skunked....just ask Tbayboy....LOL. Despite the pike not cooperating, the motor issues and the rain, it still adds up to a great day of fishing!
-
Sinker's idea is one that I'll likely do as well. Fishindevil also gave me that tip when I got my boat. If you think you'll change your fishfinder a few times over the years, maybe add a speed wheel, then he told me this is great. You dont have to keep drilling holes into your transom...just screw it into that plate.
-
Lots of great advice on reels that pair nicely with the rod! I'll chime in on the rod. If you are like me, I tend to break stuff out of my own stupidity. That is I'll likely step on a rod and break it or slam it in a car door (I've done both)....not breaking it by fighting a fish...LOL. The rod I use to land 20 pound salmon and the few musky I've brought in the boat is a 30 dollar shimano fiberglass rod, and it's done great for me....but these are fish that when they strike there is no mistaking it. If you need a rod that has better sensitivity to detect subtle hits then you'll likely want to fork out the money.

Love these reports!! Wow...most kids land a sunfish or a perch from a dock as their first fish...way to set the bar high for him!! LOL. That's a great looking walleye, but seeing the pic of dad helping him, the one of him ah-ing and oh-ing over the fish and the smile on his face are absolutely priceless. Thanks for the report... Oh yeah...the other fish are nice too....haha.

Gotta get that edge any way you can. I had to bribe her with 5 bucks and a chocolate bar so that she'd lend it to me for the day.

Amazing video...must have been a rush!! I can hear it in your voice!!
-
And it's quite the story!! Never get tired of hearing it...over and over and over and over again... SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET Muskie!!! Congrats on the PB...that's a monster!!!!
