Hi Mike, welcome to the board.

Hi all, I went fishing around a week and a half ago and totally forgot to post a report....just found the video on my computer and realised i had not even watched it myself! Anyway...i went to a local pond to get some walleye for the table. Lots of jackfish in this lake, but lots of nice walleye too. Spinners and jigs with minnows and/or nightcrawlers were the bait, fish holding near...but not in...tall cabbage in 12 FOW. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/r14cHQa0E_g" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Holy ssschmokes....fat perch there BB. If they grew that big here i might even be tempted to eat one....lol.

Nice going guys. Some really nice fishes there....MIke...you da man...putting an awesomeness goodly shedload of fish in yer boat. I gotta agree with Billy Bob....location is only part of the puzzle. As long as its not a small pond naming the body of water is all good in my opinion.

Mike...dont sweat it...you did no wrong.

Love that you just packed up and headed back to your original spot! Joey....those pics are amazing! The snake one is what i'm remembering at the moment but all of them were great! And that bug looks like a a wasp scorpion thingamabob...have no idea what it is ...but it aint friendly looking.

good stuff Dan. those birds in the water are weird...but cool.

LOL...i found this funny, especially the ladies east asian accent...very clever stuff. And yup...i need to go fishing....lol...i'm off to the lake. 'chatbot' argument

Nice Jacques....enjoy the apple pie. BEWARE THE 'SWEDISH ELK'

LOLOL

Rick...Rick...Rick.....everybody can tell thats the same bloody picture of that stringer you keep reposting Nice catch dude....and you are a lucky man living on blue Lake...that water looks soooooo nice....even nicer considering how hot its been here the last week or so.

:rofl2: :rofl2: love it!

Stunning pictures RC...really beautiful.... cant complain about the wallies either eh?

Congratulations Jacques! I really cant think of anything to add...... LOL...CONGRATULATIONS

I just like the idea of calling moose 'Swedish elk', irrespective of the state of inebriation.

DRUNK ELK

Hi all, Yup...another Jack report...lol. He loves being out in the boat but fishing is definitely not the focus. Its just nice being out there with him. He is such a lovely person, great sense of humour, amazing imagination and great company...all wrapped up in a small, curly, redhead package. <iframe width="560" height="345" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/2oMKkqFSSOc" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Interesting story from the BBC. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cambridgeshire-14806264

Pretty damn excellent report IMHO. I also know what you mean about being as happy as the guy who cuaght it...good feeling helping someone out. Keep the reports coming Dana...who gives a sh^% about 400 ten foot muskies in 20 minutes anyway...not what fishing is about anyway in my book.

yup...12volts. the battery you are looking for is a '12 volt, , 7 amp hour, Sealed Lead Acid Battery. And i disagree...once you learn to use the fishfinder you will catch more fish...GUARANTEED!

Yeah...i dunno what was happening out there, but i agree....bring on the fall. LOL...Dara...that is a very cryptic response. LOL...yeah...i was very worried about finding them too. Swen says to me at the landing..."you drive the boat.....you know what your doing and where to look" ....lol...i started to F$%$^ing laugh....but still had to drive his boat. It can be a mixed bag of emotions. But i also LOVE the challenge. very crappie report....lol. That is Swen's truck...he is giving it to his youngest son next week....he hates it....lol.

Hey Chris, Like Dozer was saying....i thought at first it was a joke but quickly realised you were serious. Dude...best of luck. I too have suffered many addictions in my life.....and you do what you have to do when they overtake. You have nothing but my respect for making such an unselfish and difficult decision. I'll miss your reports. Take care man.....hope to see/hear from ya sometime. Simon.

:thumbsup_anim: NICE 1ST FISH!

Hi all. went out with a buddy of mine looking for crappie in a lake that neither of us had fished before. Swen had heard a rumour that there were crappie in there and wanted to catch one since he never had before. I love the challenge of fishing a new lake. getting there with no idea of depth or structure...hell...with this lake we could not even confirm there were any fish in there! Anyway....we found the crappie so the rumours Swen had heard were right. They were close to shore among fallen trees between 5' and 15'FOW. Small jigs and minnows for the first couple, then we switched to powerbait micro tubes, with the occasional leech and night crawler used too. Half way throughhe morning Swen suggested we head off at around 1pm to try our luck at Scout Bay on Lac Seul for some walleye....lol....sounded good to me...so 3 fish short of 1 person's crappie limit"i did not want to keep any as i had just had a feed of crappie 2 days previous) we headed up the road for 1/2 an hour to Lac Seul. I don’t know what happened....but in 3 hours of fishing we caught 2 walleye...Swen in fact did not catch anything.... :dunno: ON LAC SEUL???????? what the hell!!!! I have never had such awful fishing on Lac Seul before. Ok...so it was a 'new Lake" situation as I’d never fished that area before....but I’m pretty good at sniffing out a walleye by process of elimination. This area had all the usual fish holding structure to choose from too. There was nice deep water, deep water near islands with varying drop off gradients. We found sand bars with deep water on one side and shallower rockier on the other, mid water structure, mid range depth windswept shore (nice westerlies all day too) hell you name it we tried it, the only thing stopping us getting further out was not wanting to get caught in big water with a 9.9hp in a 14'. At least when we got back we heard from everyone at the landing that they had had their worst days fishing that day...phew....made the experience a little less humbling....but still...humbled was what i felt like. NICE LANDING AT LAKE 'X' THE WEATHER IMPROVED, WIND DIED RIGHT DOWN JUST AS WE LAUNCHED SWEN GOT HIS FIRST EVER CRAPPIE LOTS OF REALLY LITTLE ONES A FEW BASS AND PIKE WERE CAUGHT TOO LEFT AFTER 2 HOURS OR SO TO PURSUE WALLEYE HERE'S THE VIDEO FROM THE CRAPPIE LAKE <iframe width="560" height="345" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/jSu3ve2F_WA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> AND HERE'S THE BETTER OF THE 2 WALLEYE I GOT LATER ON

wicked! love these reports, the boy, mum and dad all look like they are having a blast! outdoors fun for kids....always a good thing.
