With friends like you, who needs enemies??? Jeez...I catch fish now. My new mission is to make sure others don't by being their net man!! LOL Welcome to the board skunk!!

Unless Walt goes crazy and kills her himself....he said Jesse was "family" but he was prepared to watch him die. Edit: Weird...the last several posts are in bold...I know I didn't do that...

I started watching this series on Netflix and got hooked! Incredible episode last night....things seem to be unraveling towards an awesome finale!

Last time I was there you could bring the boat into the harbour without any issues. I've launched canoes from there and fished all the way out to the main lake and it's plenty deep enough. The area where you approach the mouth gets shallow quickly....and the area where the old docks were is chained off.

GBW is on 4 Mile Lake

It was the size of a snot rocket....he was running 6 pound mono....it's teeth sliced through the line when it went crazy. That's the story and I'm sticking to it!!

You really have them dialed in this year Mike! Hoping the good karma associated with the trip in a few weeks holds on!

You're killing me with all these HUGE fish!!! Hope we have the similar success in a few weeks!

Thanks for posting that Bernie! It's funny, but the way you describe that place is exactly how I describe your place with my own friends!!

Lol. I did....but for me it's a one time expense!

He is running a two stroke 250hp monster on the back lol. We likely burned between $80 and $100 in gas that day!

Way to go Mike!!

Yes....because Joe is always making fun of me up there. Lol

Mike...because it was a charity tourney with just a $100 entry fee, there wasn't a lot of "pressure". I found it to be challenging to have to be concentrating 100% of the time, but it wasn't a "chore". It was sort of a "let's do our best and see how we stack up" sort of excitement feeling if that makes sense.

Thanks everyone! It was a really cool experience that's for sure. As far as entering more...that remains to be seen!! LOL.

I was vacationing up at my cousin's cottage up on Paudash Lake last week. A few days before I headed up there, he sends me a text asking if I wanted to be his partner in a Charity Bass Tournament. I figured if the entry fee didn't bankrupt me then why not? My cousin fishes in a local tournament circuit, so I thought it would be cool to experience it all. This past Sunday, we headed over to the registration table and took care of business there. A tournament official came by and checked to make sure there was a working livewell on the boat as this was a live release event. My cousin getting things ready as we waited for the 7am blast off... At a few minutes to 7, everyone was jockeying for position... I received this picture from the tournament organizers...shows us just starting to get up on plane at blast off. Pretty cool shot if you ask me! Taken from a bridge....we are the boat on the right. As we sped to our first spot of the day, I took my iphone out...opened a GPS app and wanted to see how fast we were going. We topped out at 122 km/h....the fastest I've ever been in a boat! My face and cheeks began to vibrate so I hunkered down behind the windshield. I was also sitting on my hat as I usually do when going "fast", but I shifted my weight ever so slightly and I could feel the wind rip it right out from underneath me! It flew out of the boat in between us...we laughed all the way to the first spot! The day was tough...caught a lot of 1 to 1.5 pounders, but the big fish eluded us. Biggest fish for us was about 3.5 pounds. A tournament official was blasting all over the lake snapping pictures (and making sure we were following rules I assume) and he captured this "action" shot. It's amazing how fast the day goes. Concentrating on every single cast....switching up baits to see what produced and what didn't. No time to snap pictures as it was all business. I really did have a blast out there though! At the end of the day, we weighed in at just under 12 pounds for our 5 fish. We weighed in 4th (out of I think 23 boats) and there were already 2 other teams ahead of us. We figured we'd end up middle of the pack. To our surprise, everyone else had a tough time out there as well...and we ended up in 5th place...the last money spot. The winnings gave us back our entry fee so that was a nice bonus!

If he joins you Will, he can still thank me....LOL.

Sent a PM Brian!

WOW!!! Did the other boat stick around? What was his excuse? Glad to hear you guys were ok....assuming your buddy jumped out of the boat as well?

WOW!!! Started with a text message? I'll PM you my cell phone number! LOL

"I mean....we're looking at like...". You're like me....you never want to say "This could be my PB!!" just in case it doesn't work out...LOL. Amazing report and video...cant wait to get out there in September!

Well, seeing as I've already used it more this year then last I've already accomplished that feat! Lol

Thanks everyone! Was awesome literally being the only boat on the water! And yes...the donation was well worth it!
