Made it out on Simcoe for the first time last March. Our group caught five lakers, and if I remember correctly, three of them were naturals (no fin clips whatsoever).
Pic of one that I caught and released
They might do better playing football some nights
At least my Browns finished better than the Bengals...Browns and Leafs, I really must be a sucker for punishment
Back in the day...okay waaaaaay back in my pre-teen years, the yellow/black spotted Beno was our go to walleye (pickeral) lure. I'm glad I still have one of them from back then just for sentimental value.
Checked that out, just for the heck of it, I love the fact that they don't charge for children under 12. Would be nice if some of the other hut operators around the province would have that policy, although many do have children that age as 1/2 price.
Sounds like a blast. Very similiar to what we experienced at Long Point (except for the herring). Looking forward to some good ice for lakers/whities up that way!
Decent bow for some tough conditions. Vince mentioned the accident in an e-mail to me yesterday...strange things always seem to occur where he fishes...just saying
