  3. Ram the beaver ....there is now coffee on my keyboard........great read.
  4. Small? lol....nice pics and fish.
  5. Hi All, Well i'm at work at the moment , but i'm lucky enough to work at a boarding school right on the lake. I took a couple of the students for a sneeky 1/2 fish on the rocks and we did pretty well, fish for supper tonight. We were just throwing out twisty tail grubs and live minnows on jigs, there's a big current here so you can just let the bait drift down and the current lifts and makes the bait swim just by lifting the rod tip, dont have to really even reel in...and bam! good fun. ALL IN A DAY'S WORK ITS NOT FOR MY BENEFIT>>>I DO IT FOR MY STUDENTS!! SUPPER!
  6. great pics...great fish
  7. Hey jack, welcome onboard, great pics. I'm new on here too.
  8. WTG....i have so gotta give that a try, we got Lakers up here but seeing all this "chrome" as it seems to be called is making me desperate to try for them... great pics thanx
  9. hey pirate, thanks for the tips. My wife's folks are in London ON and have a trailer at Erieau. We plan to be there with the boat this August, i only have a 17' aluminum tin pot boat so i know i will have to be careful on a large water body like that but i want to give it a go as ive never caught steelheads...will it be possible to try with the boat i have.? given i might need to run back in pretty quick and dont want to go far out.
  10. Could not agree more Marko, and that didier Drogba is the worst for it!!!!
  11. I like that one... Looks like an awesome piece of kit you got there.....i'm not jealous.
  12. Hey Mike, I've never bought anything from them but i have definitely heard of them. In fact they are the sponsors of an ice fishing forum i use , and the guys on there use it. In fact they also give out gift vouchers from that company as tourney prizes and i have never seen any complaints about them on the forum.
  13. Littleangler, good to see that 'football' is so popular here. It was a good game, the penalty shootouts are always tense. Being from England i would not have missed it for the world. I'm a bit upset that England were not good enough for the European Championships this summer...oh well only another 2 years till the World cup!!!
  14. Thanks Spiel and Outdoorsman, flyfishing for whities sounds fun, bet that will put a bend in a flyrod. i will try all your suggestions, i'm pleased that tactics similar to icefishing adapted to openwater work , at least i'll have some clue what to do...lol...thanks again guys.
  15. wow...now that really is a (non) trophy too fishing for life...nice. think we might have to have different species sections on here soon.
  16. Thanks guys, i know exactly the lake i'm gonna try this on, might give it a go this week.
  17. OOOOPS Just realised that Daniel M has a post further down the list that explains it fully...sorry, but thanks for looking anyway.
  18. Hi Y'all, Just wondering if someone would be kind enough to take the time and explain to me what 'drop shotting is, i keep hearing it mentioned but have no idea what it is/means. Thanks Simon
  19. damn....for some reason i cant see the pics, just a red cross in a white box, oh well....nice red crosses you got there.
  20. nice pics, scenery is good too. I was also thinking that downrigger looks big for specs....but what the heck do i know....lol....i've never caught one before!
  21. Thats a really great report Nauti, dont wanna get too melodramatic but it did almost make me mist over when you mentioned seeing all the folks from the pier. I used to fish 2 local piers by the sea back home and the friendships and banter with the same old faces was priceless....oh yeah....show the vids...can only speak for myself but it would not be boring.
  22. first time i've seen that type of fish....nice catch,
  23. hat would be perfect for my canoe!
  24. Ive always used Trilene XL for my mono, great casting and low memory, also apparently the same stuff they package as their ice fishing mono.
  25. Hi All, Just wondering what rigs, baits and methods people use when targeting whitefish? I have only ever fished for them during the winter on the ice using the usual jigs + spoons tipped with minnows or mini tubes. Just wondering how to fish for them in the spring/summer/fall as there is no closed season for them here and they are awesome fun to catch...and totally yummy grilled in a lemon parsley and cracked black pepper butter. Also wondering whereabouts the move in the warmer waters, i.e are they deep, suspended, surface or everywhere in the water column, is there a general rule to follow for open water seasons? Thanks in advance. Simon
