Huh…. I’d definitely thought you’d have caught some. They are addictive, it’s just fun to watch them on the screen, and they taste pretty good too. I was liking them more than walleye to eat for a while but I’m back to liking walleye better.

Hi all, got out for my fix yesterday, chilly morning for a change so set the shack up and was nice and warm. With the lack of snow this year it’s kinda fun to drive the truck out to your spots. Fish were plentiful but picky but got a limit of nice size ones.

Took a new friend icefishing, he’s a fellow Englishman and had never been icefishing before, well, he said he loves it, no doubt because we couldn’t keep the fish off the lines from the get go. Sorry Misfish, was so frantic did not get a chance to tie on one of those grubs you kindly sent, oh well , next time.

Hi all, got out this morning for 3 hours on a local trout lake and………

A longer video of my trout session the other day including the numerous pike that were around.

Hi all, The day after our shallow water walleye trip , Rich wanted to go for crappie, took him to a little spot I know and we caught enough for supper and a limit for him to take back to the US the next day.

100% fox. Looks really healthy, the foxes round here are scrawny looking mangy critters.

Yeah, my neighbour Bob’s Ranger is pretty luxurious, heated leather seats, air con etc…etc. Bob and Rich have cabins in the area. I said I hadn’t fished that lake before but I actually have, in a boat, we had to hand bomb a 14’ tinny 1/2 mile downhill to get in there, we did better on the ice lol.

Agree with looking for numbers, freezing your spheres off for one or two fish doesn’t tickle my turtle either.

Got out to a small remote lake north of Dryden, I’d not fished there before but my buddies had and they knew the spot to set up, I’m usually fishing deeper for walleye and it felt wrong to be in 3’ to 5’ FOW, but that feeling lasted about ten minutes before my buddy reels in a 21”er! Very cool to barely get the jig past the bottom of the hole before the jig take’s off horizontally…. Fun!

Thanks! I was nervous too, I lost one at the hole minutes before, but I knew right off the bat it was a good fish…. really, really didn’t want to lose it…. Lol.

Really thick across the middle…a real tank!

Hi all, Finally got out for trout for the first time this year. Got 4 or five decent pike waiting for the lakers to turn on, lost one, had a couple chases with nothing more than nose bumps, but landed a nice 35”er that was just CHUNKY! Took almost 6 minutes to reel in, seemed like a lifetime after just getting snapped off a few minutes before.

Hi all, Put together some clips from last June, June the 6th to be precise. Last year the walleye were out on the main lake structure earlier than I expected, always fun searching around and seeing what’s what any given time of year here on Wabigoon.

He was 12 years old last November, pretty decent for a Lab.

You’re most welcome. Roloff is getting on in age now, covered in lumps and bumps(benign), and struggles to get on the bed and couch, might not be long before he passes unfortunately but he’s well looked after and still loves the lake, best life still being lived.

No, GoPro 4 doesn’t have it, I think it started around GoPro 8. I shot the footage in the video with a GoPro 5.

He’s still enthusiastic, just like his dad, it’s just the execution of that enthusiasm is harder for both of us these days…. Lol. GoPro does a dog harness mount, it would be much better now with the digital stabilisation incorporated in their newer cameras.

Absolutely a game changer, I’m so glad I held out, all the other providers were sketchy and expensive. I’m getting speeds of up to 200Mbps so far, it fluctuates but the slowest so far has been around 55Mbps….it’s like a whole new universe of possibilities when compared to our old service… see below What we had…… and what it’s like now…….

Hi All, we finally pulled the trigger and got Starlink internet, WOW, what a difference from our existing, or shalll i say practically non-existent service from Bell. This means i can finally upload videos from home instead of having to sneak into walmart and use theirs. I have a huge backlog of videos to edit and can now finally just plug away at home and upload at my leisure. I started with the first file in my bunch which happened to be from last May at around walleye opener time. A chilled half hour with my puppy and faithful friend Roloff, paradise!

That’s it, I’m sold! Thanks for taking the time to share paradise with us!

Hi all, Finally feeling like winter here in NW Ontario, some snow on the ground and some -20C daytime temps coming up. Still not as much snow as usual so took advantage and went off the side of the ice road here in Dryden, caught a couple in an hour or so, very convenient.

Hi all, Went out with some buddies for walleye the other day, a grand total of two walleye and a whitefish were caught, but the ride in was fun.

Crazy weather. It finally snowed here last night, we have about six inches on the ground now, hopefully enough to save my septic field for the forecasted cold snap.

Hi all, Got out with my next door neighbor, only neighbour I have nextdoor and he loves fishing…win/win. We got a few walleye and a pike and a whitefish, my neighbour smokes the pike and whities and delvers some to my family, really delicious.
