Yes...well...where we fish (shore of Lake O), the cold air is usually accompanied by 30km/h winds!!!! We need 30 pound gloves to avoid being blown into the water.

LOL...we're just yankin your chain...just thought it might make a few ppl laugh......

Hey Mods/Admins..... Just to let you know that I am the one experiencing the wrath over this one.... I started out as a newbie, then to caster..... My wife (blyght) went from newbie to NETBOY???? NETBOY!!!!! Oh man....thanks guys....I really appreciate it....

Thanks everyone for your replies so far! I'll be looking to add WFN to my Rogers programming. TJQ...so we have some hosts from shows on our board? That's pretty cool. I've been bitten by the fishing bug, so I'll try to watch some during the long winter.... Keep em coming if you want to pipe in about your fav show!

My wife and I have landed four 11+ pound Walleye west of BOQ this fall and in general, this is what we have noticed. They hit very soft....once the hook it set, they've fought for maybe 20-30 seconds pulling drag etc. After that, they are pretty much logs coming in. I would think that once the water warms up in Spring/Summer, they'd fight a bit more and not be as lethargic. Just my two cents!

Now that winter is just around the corner, I was wondering what fishing shows are on TV that people really like? I have Rogers Digital Cable and can choose specialty channels, but I'm not even sure which networks/channels/shows to look at. I looked at OLN Canada, and they had a few listed there. The only one I've heard of and watched on occasion is Bob Izumi's show. Are there any out there that cater to Ontario fishing in particular? I'm mostly interested in educational type shows for lakes and tribs, since I'm not likely to head to some exotic location and fish for 300 pounders.....although they'd be fun to watch as well. So I throw it out to the all knowing members of this board ....what's your fav show and why? I'll need all the help I can get come spring. Thanks! Cliff

Cant say that's ever happened to me, but it kind of reminds me of Dave Winfield hitting one with a baseball.....

Great report and pictures! Looked like a great time was had by all.

Great report....nice boats....AWESOME FISH!!!

You did the right thing IMO....I would have done the same.

Since blyght and I caught our Walleye back in October.....and the 5 week spell of not even a hit....we started tracking a bunch of things to see if we could predict when conditions would be ideal. Because we fish from shore, we dont have the luxury of heading to deeper waters to fish. Some websites say that when the pressure is high...the fish generally are not feeding and they head to deep waters. As the pressure falls and is normal or slightly below normal, they begin to feed. When the pressure is low, but hasn't bottomed out, they are active and will move to shallower waters. As coincidence has it, the pressure was at the low end for all the Walleye that we have caught....and they were very close to shore. Does anyone else use barometric pressure, or moon phase, wind direction etc.....or is it all just a sham? Please leave me your thoughts....thanks!

What lure would I use to catch that one??? Very interesting info! Thanks for sharing!

Wow...I can only dream!!! Awesome post...

Some ppl think it's important...it takes work and time to post and keep up on here. That and every guy likes to say "mine's bigger than yours" hehe

All these BOQ reports make me wish I went this year! Sounded like a great time, and I hope I an attend next year. Great report and great pics! thanks for sharing!

Looked like a great time all around! Is the BOQ an annual event? I'll be sure to go next year! Awesome fish!

Great fish!!! Could have done without the underwear analogy tho...LOL.

We've all done something stupid in life....now that the record is straight...let's just get on with fishing!

What does everyone think about adding a soluar calendar to the site? I just realized that I'm forever looking one up online, and it's not adjusted for Ontario.... I dont know if they actually work or not, but they're fun to look at.... Rick...if you're not too busy...hehe.

Happy birthday guys!!! Hope you get out there and catch as many fish as you are years old!!!

My 14 year daughter...her second day fishing, was excited to catch this fish!!! Dont worry, the little guy was fine and swam away after the ordeal....

Hey fisherpete! Great idea for the certificates!! I think I'll hint for that kind of treatment for Christmas....great inexpensive gifts the kids can get me....hehe. I'm not even close to the avid angler treatment, so congrats on that one!! Hopefully I'll get out more next year....a full season of fishing. I only started up again this past August. Cliff

We left there at around 930pm. It had been pretty quiet for about a half hour, after seeing lots of them nearby. I had 2 hits and one spit hook for the night....so they were pretty active tonight.

Maybe debs doesn't actually have a dog... If you need help with posting pics...shoot me a PM!

Great fish!!! Congrats on a great weekend. I hope to attend the next OFC weekend in the area.... See you next week! Cliff
