~~Bad knees stops me from walking great distance. back in the 50s when I was yes I once was young we walk off Mintes about 3oo yds and phish for Perch and Herring

~~~I'll be hitten the Bowmanville Tackle SwapShow

Oh you can use live bait, the good old Simcoe Spreaders baited are the best

It's still one line, which is hard not to toss another line down. Good Luck

I have been phishen up on Gull lake this past month with Haliburton Outfitters, up by Minden, and have yet to be shunked. Greg runs a great operation with great huts, I've had on Lakers, Whities, Walleyes, & Burbots,(ugly thing). losing some landing most. the cost is real low at $50. weekdays, & $55 on weekends. and if I may head up this weekend I'll be heading back up. Simcoe cost way too much, and with the season soon to close.

Thanks Misfish nice to know your still around

I haven't been up there for many decades and wondering if there any hut operations up there

~~Was up by the Talbot on Saturday after the Storm east side of the lake full of debrie

~~~~I don't drive so I depend on others for transportation, enjoy their company, bit there are times I like to close up my hut, and have some of the best naps on the ice ever

~~~~took a drive through town and stopped to take a look just off shore, about 100 yds, someone drove out with their sled and hit some soft ice, you can see where he turned around and came back to shore. Just off the Government dock large area of grey snow, suggesting a lot of slush. So don't be the first one put, there is no reward for it

~~~~Was there last year stayed at ParkPlace Motel, very nice rooms, from the boat ramp it's a very nice walk out, just up the raod there is Cosy Cove and again a great walk out, only problem it's 6" ofw most of the way out till you great to the main lake. There is a certain River the flows out of the lake which holds some great Eyes, but it's mostly night phishen for them. Got a report of a 10lber caught over the weekend

~~~I liked the Victoria Model commercial, that came up on my computor

~~~Okay what time does the Mini-Bus leave, and from where

~~~~Great Vid, enjoyed watch your mutt running around and being there for the action, seems a little disappointed he never got to keep the phish

~~~Congrats bud, no don't go buying those silly pink rods for her, get her a good one with some back bone so she will be able to horse those biggen in

~~~~~Was up to Keswick on Saturday, to try some shore phishen for some Crappies, most places I checked had No Phishen signs posted, and we all know why. Even at Harry's, but I spoke with him and he said I could, but good luck, because the river was clogged with a thick(2") algae bloom cause by the fertilizers run off from the farm fields all the way down to the lake, lets hope the winds and rains we had on Sunday washes it out

~~~~Have a few small items to be repaired on my Widdle Gween Twacker, she is over 20years old. First item to fix was the Relay switch for the power trim, then there is the Speedometer Pilot sensor(little white probe at the stern). then them out on YouTube, and the task were very easy to do.

The only problem is finding the parts, have you ever called up a Marina, and was told "we'll have to order it in" and when you call back to see if it has arrive to be told they forgot to order it, or it's no longer in stock. Well I have found a great source for parts. " Central Outboard Marina" in Markham. Each time I've called they have had the part in stock, now I'm sure there are others, But i'll not be calling any marinas for parts

~~~There is only 75 eyes left in the lake

~~~~How are you going to cook it, on the BBQ, or Broil it

~~~Looking to set up a M&G in Oct. on Pigeon, and looking for info on some camps that have some Multi-bedrooms cottages, that won't cost us a leg, and an arm

~~~~Well the weekend was a bust. partner was worried about being caught in a thunder storm, which didn't happen & high winds, also he had to be home by 4:30.So I didn't get out, I don't drive, so he was my way of getting my boat up there. spoke with another buddy who did get up there and the winds on the South side were bad, he bumped into too many stumps, and got caught up on a few also.

~~~~the last time I was on Wickstead there is only the one launch, and yes there are some stumps, and shoals to watch out for, but the main part of the lake if fne. Get your self some Green Go getters with worms or minnows. without giving to much away, look for the sandy beach there's a spur coming of it, which is great for pike & eyes

Thanks guys, I'll taking my special C.I.L. Lures and as long as the MNR, and the Police are not around I should no okay, and I do have a good shyster, and a note from my head shrink stating I'm certified mentally un-balanced, and out on a day pass

~~~I'm not asking for your hidden spots, or your go to lure, all I'm asking is you stay off Dalrymple this Sunday. I haven't caught a decent Bass all season, and I need to improve my chances.
