Congratulations Terry!!! Enjoy every minute!!

I just raked the bare spots...put a good amount of seed down, layer of topsoil and made sure it was kept moist. Took a few weeks of constant care but it worked for me. I have a few spots that are thin, so I will repeat in those few spots.

Well, another weekend at Bernie’s is in the books with the usual cast of characters! Conditions were windy and the bite was typical of a cold front, but it’s always great to get up there and catch up with the guys! Friday we arrived around 230ish and decided to not hit the windy lake. Instead, Bernie melted some lead to make some jigs. We then painted them up....these things have always worked great for us and I need to re-stock again! Caught a bunch of smaller walleye on Saturday but Will caught the first 21” one I’ve seen come out of that lake in 8 years on Sunday. Was a great catch to end the weekend. As always, thanks Bernie for hosting us yet again up there! Stay tuned for the Sept 2018 edition....

Was out on my hole lake last weekend. Saturday it was 60F. Sunday late morning it was 70F! Couldn’t believe how quickly it rose!

Lol Brian!! Someone should be using it!

Great condition. Barely used. Don’t have time for river fishing anymore. Retails for $199 USD (about $255 Canadian). Located in Whitby area. Asking $160 or best offer.

It’s been a while since I fished there, but I do miss it! A few solid fish there for sure!

Thanks for posting Lakair was a big part of my summer for many years and your family was a big part of that. Thanks for checking in!

This is the beat feature ever!!

Oh no Cliff. Im so sad to hear the news. She was always so great to me and Sydney. My deepest condolences....

I have no words..... LOL

Hey there G!!!

Thanks everyone! We love it there. Very happy with how it all happened. Wasn't "in the plan", but the opportunity came up and we took it.

I'm aware of the danger zones and my navionics maps have the shoals and rocks mapped out pretty well. The people in the park also shares important info!

It's Layzee Acres.

It's been a while since I've posted, but I thought I'd share that my wife and I have purchased a trailer on Lake Dalrymple. I knew it was a good fishing lake years ago, but I was excited to see what I could pull out of the lake. First, here's our new home away from home...just 70 minutes door to door from our house. [/img] The boat is very happy to be slipped here instead of in the garage! I've been out fishing for about 4 hours total over the course of a few days, but managed a small Muskie, some pike, and a few smallies literally just out from where the docks are. I think I'll like fishing this lake! So much to explore still and I'm starting to figure out where they are hiding. Hopefully will find the odd big fish here and there but for now I'm happy with what I've found so far! The great news is the park allows for free winter storage and a seasonal boat slip is only $300...a bargain as far as I'm concerned!!

Yep. It's big now!

Plug. Extra one that is. Waterproof bag with toilet paper and dry socks.

I think it was Moosebunk who inspired this one.... Fishing Salmon on the Fraser River one day, then Sturgeon the next!! That to me would be an ultimate fishing trip! I'd also like to rent an RV and drive to BC, then down the west cost of the US...across the south and up the east cost to the Canadian maritime provinces. Lastly....own a cottage on a great little fishing lake to retire with my wife.

We were jigging for them Bunk....was perfect weather on the Saturday!

Hey l2p...yep...that's sounds about right! Saw lots of boats out there that evening.

Three times a year, a group of us is lucky to be invited up to Bernie's paradise up on Lake Nipissing. Why he keeps inviting us back, I have no idea....but I'm sure glad he does! This trips cast of characters included Headhunter (Joe), Fishnsled (Will), Rubin and myself. Will, Joe and Rubin arrived at my place at 640am Friday morning and we started our trek north. We knew the weather wasn't going be great on Sunday, but we were hoping to spend some time on the water on Friday and Saturday. Our trip was up was unevenful, and we arrived at the island around 1030am. After some quick conversation to catch up since we were all together last, some sandwiches for lunch, we decided to hit the water in search of some walleye or pike. We got back to the cottage around 530-6pm and had a jerk pork roast....courtesy of Joe! We are truly blessed with great food while we are up there. You might say saying "bless you" was a common occurrence, much to the chagrin of Rubin.... We went back out after dinner to see what we could find...caught a lot of small walleye, but one time I pulled up this BLUE perch! It was very odd....but pretty cool to see Me and this little guy admiring the sunset view!!! We headed back in at sunset and relaxed and chatted the evening away....we were all pretty tired from the early start we had that morning!! Saturday morning came, and for once we actually made it out on the water before noon!! LOL. It was a little chilly, but the bite was on....couldn't quite catch a keeper, but we had a few that were very close. If you look really really closely at this picture....enlarge it about to about 10x magnification, you can see that Joe caught a fish! At least we think it was a fish.... We headed in around noon for lunch. Will was going to barbecue some home made burgers....and by then we were all pretty hungry! First, the grill, which hadn't been used in about a year, needed cleaned up a bit. I asked Bernie if he had a scraper. He said "Of course I do", then proceeded to pick up his garden rake.... After lunch (probably 2/3 pound burgers), we headed back out and fished until the sun went down. Here's a few pics.... Then, Will brought all the fun to a stop. After bringing a walleye into the boat, it thrashed all around and did this.... A quick snip with the cutters, and Will was fishing again in about 5 minutes We stayed out til it got dark again... That was the end of our fishing....we watched a few Jays games, watched Nashville beat Pittsburgh, and even found time to watch a few movies. Sunday was an iffy day weather wise....so we had some lunch and hit the road! Another chapter of the Weekend at Bernie's chapter has closed. Great company, great friends, great food, great time fishing....cant beat it! Bless you guys....these weekends are needed to keep sane in today's world!

Wow!! Great pic!!

Yep. Have to finance them this time. Lol

I was at the bank yesterday in Whitby and when I got out of the car I looked up and saw this....was pretty amazing and a bit scary to see! I kept waiting for a funnel cloud to form!
