Hi Y'all, Got out with Brkygetr again, same lake as last week, but we managed to get to the other rock point just across from where we fished before. It was great to see that a few snowmobiles had used the trail since the dump of snow we got during the week, but we still had a whole load of slush to contend with out on the lake. We were set up by 8:30am......and waited and waited, lots of baitfish schools swimming through on sonar......but zip...nada....nuffink...biting. I tried for whitefish again...but nope...nothing. It was a nice drop off where we were, going from 0-55' FOW 50yards from shore, with a nice shelf about 20ft from shore at the 25ft depth, this is where our few fish came out. We built a fire and snacked on smokies, always nice to build a fire. We did catch 3, the first one went back...a bit small, the second one had shoulders and is the best one i've iced so far, the next 2 got off, and Dale landed a good one near the end. All in all a very slow day, not the slowest either of us had had....but slow. Great weather, although we were in the shade most of the day, but no wind and not cold. Her'es the piccy/video of the day's action. 2ND FISH OF THE DAY WAS DEFINITELY A KEEPER ONE GOT OFF....ONE DIDN'T <embed width="448" height="361" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" src="http://i263.photobucket.com/player.swf?file=http://vid263.photobucket.com/albums/ii158/vishuscirquel/Movie-1.flv">

Firstly....NICE WALTER! Fishing for us(lakers) was the slowest day so far this year....it was a really sunny day....i'm beginning to see a pattern...i dont do well for lakers when its a clear day, regardless of moon phase!

hmmmm.....minus 18C....cold indeed......an average day up here Congrats on the fish, nice looking trout...yum!

WOW...and i thought shorts in the '80's were short! Great pics Cliff, i especially like the one with the waders in the river...i have a very similar one of my dad. Like i said, great pics, NOW GET A WOOLY SWEATER ON AND DRILL SOME HOLES!!!! all the best simon

Great report! Ahhhhh....gonna have to call my brother in law and use his place in Antigua some time soon. Never caught a bone fish myself but the exact same bite off thing happened to me in antigua. I was fishing the mangrove flats....had waded half a mile out into the bay....was pulling in a 3 foot barracuda...when somthing ripped into it, lol...pulled in a 1 1/2 foot barracuda....i felt a bit vulnerable standing waste high in the water in the middle of the bay a good 1/2 mile from land with a 3 foot baraacuda eater nearby...lol. Thanks for sharing and congrats to you and Ginny for the baby. Simon

GREAT POST! never thought about it before...will have to get back to ya....lol....

great stuff Jen. congrats on the walter!

Excellent stuff Pikeslayer, lol....open water on a sled?!...lol braver than me...but oh yeah...i dont have to worry about that....I AINT GOT A SLED....lol Those greys sound amazing...we have a lake here where they are very pale...but they still have markings. 30 trout in a day is some haul, good job. We went yesterday...size was a bit better but a very slow day....only 3 landed...1 put back and 2 got off. Dont know what to say about the pictures.....hope you get it sorted , would love to see the pics. Thanks for sharing Simon.

Great little afternoon session. 15" walleye not to be sniffed at....lol.....i'd be happy with that the way the walleye bite seems around my neck of the woods at the moment. Thanks for sharing.

SNAG....please ,please,please lend me the prism through which you view the world.... once again the King of Original Posts strikes again LOVE IT Keep 'em coming!

LOL...you lucky so and so...lac seul being your backyard...i get Wabigoon!!! Thats a huge sauger...nice one Love those dark colours on the walleye from those waters, Great pics.....love the look of that Hbird good stuff Simon

For anyone wondering what shop they should be avoiding.....Northeatsshark named them in his reply above....and it aint Railside.

Slowpoke....SPOT ON MATE! Thats exactly how i view it at the moment...like you said...im getting shafted from both ends.......thought that only happened in prison when you drop the soap....lol....not thati would know

Hi All, They called this morning, still telling me that its my fault for telling the actual mechanic to hold off on the work and not the front desk. I told the front desk that it was...by law....actually their responsibility to make sure authorization had been given and to make an accurate record of that. anyway, blah...blah...blah later....i was getting really mad....she gives me a price $2100 taxes included, and the sled is good to go...mechanically as they have not checked the engine . This figure has dropped from $3000, and whilst now she was suddenly offering to put it back together the way it was brought in I kinda look at it this way. Paid $1900.....a similar sled in good running order can fetch between $2500 and max $3000. So....if i go on the low figure of $2500....and add $2100 ive paid $1600 more than i budgeted for. I am so fed up at this point i'm willing to take the hit (god i hope the engine is ok). I can only console myself in the fact that if she runs good, i get a sled with a good engine that is mechanically sound which will do me for a few years. I pay off my truck in 3 years time....then buy a new sled with a warranty......NOT A POLARIS BECAUSE IDONT WANNA SERVICE IT THERE!!!! I am going to call Polaris and tell them as much, and let them know i will not be getting a Polaris...ever!!!! because of this...see what they say. I know i'm kinda letting my "wants" get the better of me...i "want' a sled now!!!! but i made the decision and will have to live with it. Thats not to say i'm ungrateful of the offers to take the sled back the way i got it....and take it to Rickter's store, or Brkygetr to help me fix the parts up. .....but to be honest....this sucks....but things are pretty good, my wife and i are healthy, we have a little one due in march (too cool), I might have to buy cloth nappies now and wash them given all the money we're spending....lol....but if you listen to the politicians....I AM A NATIONAL HERO....STIMULATING THE ECONOMY! Have a great day all....... Thanks for all the support Simon.

Great stuff BassAsin, Love the bit about not sleeping, xmas eve...i'm totally like that before a fishing trip. Thanks for sharin"

That is a very nice walleye, good job guys

You know what guys.....i cant thank you all enough. The replies, advice and offers of help from local and non local members are just above and beyond. I was kinda feelin really crap about all this, especially ranting at the shop owner, but now i feel totally justified to be as P'd off as i am, and the bugger aint getting away with this! Thanks for all your support, I knew there was a reason i liked this place so much Rickster....thanks man!...Brkygetr....thanks man! Pikeslayer.....Thanks man!
