Great report Silvio, that big one is awesome...keep up the good 'work'

WTG Bly, nice looking fish, worth the wait....say hi to Cliff from me....good man sorting out the home front!

OMG...here we go again......do you ever skunk??.....lol Excellent report....stunning pictures.....i'm almost too tired to be jealous....but its hard not to be Great stuff man...pure magic.

Awesome Jacques, Damn i hate you! you got me all bleary eyed sitting here, anything to do with kids pushes all my buttons at the moment....lol. The high 5 video is an all time classic...very 'arthouse' but unpretentious....lol. The ice looks so smooth there......mind you we're having a real melt here.....its been bright sunshine and +6 - +10 C for the last couple of days. I'm due to take my mum out on the ice today....hoping for some high 5's myself. Thanks for the post....great stuff....congrats to Mellissa on a good size PB pike all the best from a very tired Limey....lol.

I"M OVERWHELMED BY THE RESPONSE FOLKS....THANKS SO MUCH. I"M A LITTLE BIT TIRED AT THE MOMENT, MY WIFE IS GOING INSANE, BUT IT WILL GET BETTER.... I EVEN FORGOT IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY TODAY.....LOL! oooops, sorry about the caps, but i'm too tired to change them.

Hi all, My wife gave birth to our first child yesterday afternoon at 12:11pm, a beautiful boy 8lb 4oz. Mum and Jack are doing great, i cant describe the feeling really, but it feels like my heart is going to explode every time i look at him, and when i see him with mum and how happy she is.....its almost too much. baby was 19.5 " at birth, and despite being in the slot size, we're keeping him

Thanks, but i dont think its as great as jumping in my own plane and taking my pick of the lakes....lol....you gotta drop by my house with that toy of yours and take me fishing, damn we could get into some god lakes! Thanks Jacques, i have to admit that once again it was you that i have to blame, your reply to my post the other day asking for pics/vids really got me out the door, thanks bud! and thanks for your well wishes for baby Limey. yup, i'm really enjoying being mobile this winter, was mobile last winter.....dragging my @#$# around on my pink plastic sleigh, but the snowmobile is an awesome piece of fishing tackle!

yup, even got him a helmet as you suggested HAPPY CAT

Hi all, got out for 2 half days yesterday evening and this morning. Not the greatest fishing ever, but just glad to get out of the house! HEADED OUT AND FOUND A GROOMED TRAIL TO A SPOT I"D CAUGHT NICE 26" WALLEYE IN THE SUMMER SOMEONE ELSE ALSO THOUGHT THIS A GOOD SPOT, THEY DRAGGED THEIR SHACK OVER 6 MILES TO PUT IT THERE IT WAS A BEUTIFUL AFTERNOON, I SET UP AND WAITED....AND WAITED.............NOT EVEN A FISH ON SCREEN FOR 2 HOURS! I WAS ACTUALLY PACKING UP TO LEAVE WHEN MY OTHER LINE WENT, GOT THIS LITTLE GUY THEN I WAITED FOR ANOTHER COUPLE OF HOURS AFTER THE PIKE THATR GOT ME TO STAY....WATCHED THE SUN SLOWLY SINKING, ANTICIPATING BIG WALLEYE I MOVED OVER ABOUT 50 YARDS TO A HOLE IN BEHIND A ROCK I KNEW WAS THERE FROM TROLLING IN MY BOAT, AND THERE WERE SOME WALLEYE HIDING IN THERE! NOT BIG BUT BETTER THAN I HAVE BEEN CATCHING ON WABIGOON ALL WINTER IT WENT QUIET FOR TWENTY MINUTES, THEN I GOT MY FIRST WABIGOON WHITEFISH IN JUST OVER 7 FEET OF WATER ON A GLOW JIG AND MINNOW. A REAL FATTY After that little excursion I was itching to get out again so took off early in the morning across Lake Wabigoon from the house to Thunder Lake for some trout fishing, really nice weather we had this weekend, not a cloud in the sky yesterday and today, no wind either! perfect for buzzin about the lakes. SET OFF FROM THE HOUSE EARLY, A BIT CRISP OUT, BUT ANOTHER GORGEOUS DAY STUNNING MORNING ON THUNDER LAKE, AND IT WAS WARMING UP A BIT, BUT UNFORTUNATELY NOT ENOUGH TO BE OUTSIDE THE SHELTER AT 9AM WAS MARKING LOTS OF BAITFISH, AND SOME ACTIVITY ON THE BOTTOM IN 43 FOW, STARTED OFF WITH ONLY MY 3RD EVER THUNDER LAKE WALLEYE AFTER THAT I GOT INTO A SMALLER TROUT AFTER A BIG ONE CAUGHT THE BOTTOM OF THE ICE AND I WATCHED IT SWIM AWAY I MISSED ANOTHER 2 DECENT ONES, THEN GOT THIS WEE BABY TROUT THEN SOME WALLEYE CAME THROUGH ON THE BOTTOM, REALLY DIFFICULT TO GET THEM TO BITE, BUT GOT ANOTHER IN THE END That was it , packed up soon after that walleye and headed home, great few hours over the weekend. .

just for you GCD

good stuff GCD....good to see you got out, means less time stalking the tourney section stirring the pot.

Nice one Jacques, I am amazed those perch you catch hit such large baits, ours up here will occasionally do that, but they are more often than not really finnicky. I am also a big fan of those 'fishfry' your using.

too funny, good one guys!

Hi All, been keeping an eye out around the forum, but with the arrival of our first child any day now i aint been getting out much...well....i have been out the front of the house a few times but the fishing is awful this time of year....if ya catch anything its tiny( 4"-6") walleye. I am going a bit stir crazy, but not much i can do about it. My wife is fantastic....she is taking it all in her stride, although her stride is more like a duck waddle these days. Got up this morning, beautiful day, sunny, -15 C, no wind.......lol....guess what i'm thinking Funnily enough i think my cat had the same idea...... GOING........ GOING.................... COME ON LETS GO!!!!!!!!!! Nice try cat, but alas i dont think so...maybe....maybe...tomorrow .

i have the Mr. Heater Big Buddy, it has been really good. It does cut out if i move it too quickly but i rarely have to move it. I did manage to break the screws off on the right hand side cover( the heater takes a bit of a beating in the back of my shelter/sleigh) but customer service was excellent, sent me a replacement part , no questions asked on warranty, even waived shipping charges on the 20lb tank hose with filter that i ordered at the same time. if you get no joy with the dirty intake fix suggested above...give 'em a call, they were very helpful and quick to help out.

great stuff Kelly! good you are able to pass on your fishing skills to Ben btw Ben.....new heater?

Awesome JT!!!! Thats a good time for sure. Good job upgrading the whitefish for team 3 too!

Not yet Ben....maybe in a week or so....the baby is due to be induced on Tuesday if it doesn't arrive before that.......i'm kinda grounded fishing wise lol, but i might just be able to sneak to Thunder lake in the morning as i've worked out a direct route from our lawn across Lake Wabigoon...hopefully get my dad some trout for lunch/supper.

Hi All, Well my folks arrived from England yesterday, and my mum should move out here, she's already asked to go icefishing, and she was quick to jump at the chance to go for a ride on the snowmachine......she wont read this so its ok to let you know she's 76YEARS OLD....now i know where i get it from....lol MY MUM....SHE ROCKS!!!!

Thats what i thought....I'm in Dryden, GM rips you off Here, and all three main garages...oooops 2....one went out of business, rip you off!

Lowrance X67c

Maybe....but my tape measure is better quality Good stuff TJSA, i know exactly how ya feel about those ones that got off...i had a session not too long ago where around 5 in a row got off!!!! Geat report man, i'm sure our team will upgrade that 24" soon....its gonna happen!

WTG Ben! Cor blimey me ole mucka, that walleye is the dogs bollox! BTW....how'd it go the other day with the Vex tutorial?

CONGRATULATIONS....i dont want my wife to see this post, she's due any day now and sick of being pregnant! What a beautiful baby, the second picture is really great.
