people use cell phones to look up girls skirts, waaaaaaaaay more incidents of that than drones appearing at bedroom windows....ban cell phones?

LOL...I thought you'd like that one, you just wait till I start flying my drone to do Chem trails....lol.

Have a good time man! Sounds fun. I'd take my boat too,cheaper and more worry free. I agree 10000% on the guide thing, working it out is the fun bit, working it out and actually catching is priceless!

Bought an expensive drone, then 3 weeks later Government brings out witch hunt style regulations....crappie! I don't think they consulted any drone operators before drafting these regulations, probably done by some overpaid knobber in Downtown Toronto whose idea of the great outdoors is a Latte in a street cafe on Yonge St. The rules, which are effective immediately, mean recreational users will face a fine of up to $3,000 if drones weighing more than 250 grams are caught flying: Higher than 90 metres. Within 75 metres of buildings, vehicles, vessels, animals or people. More than 500 metres away from the user. At night, in clouds or somewhere you can't see it. Within nine kilometres of somewhere aircraft take off or land, or a forest fire. Without your name, address and phone number marked on the drone itself. Over forest fires, emergency response scenes or controlled airspace. So, some of these are common sense, but some are just plain punitive. Are they talking about my animals, buildings, vehicles? heck, I'm a people, does that mean I have to walk 75meters away from the drone before launching? What if my wife and kid are there and are ok with it, what if my only neighbour is ok with it, in fact he will probably want aerial shots of his house knowing Bob. Does this mean on an isolated lake (there are just a few of those around here...sarcasm) i can't film myself close up in my boat? what if there is no-one around and suddenly tourist camp Joe comes zooming in on my marker bouy while fishing/ filming? Put my name/adress/telephone # on it.....are you kidding me? Now any psycho conspiracy theorist ( not you Manitou .....lol) who finds my drone will be at my door step claiming I was stalking them....guess what loser.....fish and scenery are far more interesting to me. At least with an anonymous registration system (not required here in Canada) if someone finds my drone they contact the authorities and the authorities contact me...BUFFER ZONE DUDE! So not higher than 90 meters but at least 75meters away from everything else that exists in the universe including Dark matter no doubt. Well thats clever, lets get everyone trying to operate the aircraft in a narrow 15 meter zone...dumb...dumb...dumb. I bought this expensive Drone and Revenue Canada got their nice little chunk of that, now they are practically regulating me out of the sky, can I have my money back plz? I can only imagine that I'm lucky given my rural location, can't imagine how peeved people in more urban areas are with these regs. The US regs are far better thought out.

Those blue litter boxes make excellent minnow buckets too! I usually have a bag in the sink but putting it in the container is GENIUS!!!lol...gonna try that. I freeze all my carcasses and take them to the dump on dump run days. Another trick to getting the skin off is after the first inch or so of clean skin is separated make a small incision in the skin with the knife enough to get your thumb in...and there ya go, a handle! LOL...Roloff has food anxiety....lol. He will eat fish only when the cats eat it first, he won't eat a whole fish carcass but will destroy a grouse carcass. Having said that if he comes across a rotting fish carcass on the ice he will inhale that no problem, of course he has to roll his whole body in it first, he's a strange but lovely beastie. Oh and he has brought home a few frozen stiff deer body parts too. WHAT? LOL...thanks man.

LIVING THE DREAM!

Thats kind of the routine I have for my walleye, except I'm quicker with the regular fillet knife for walleye. I am beginning to think taking the fillets completely off is the way to go, however saying that, if I can perfect the 'flop' with everything attached it is so much neater when it comes to getting rid of the carcasses and having the tail to hold while taking the skin off is nice too. I have only had the electric knife out 5 or 6 times since I got it so i am going to persevere. Avoid the Berkely one for $50 at CT, not enough power. I was lucky cuz I won it at a fishing derby, they aint cheap, but they work good, also not bad for carving lamb roasts

Hi all, Someone asked me to do a video of how I clean crappie, I obliged....lol.

Hi all, my spring walleye tip is to make sure your auger blades are sharp.....lol. Lots of ice here still, and a local lake that sucked for fishing the last few years has come alive again, its about a 20 minute drive down the trails from my house so makes a good destination once the kid is off the bus now we have daylight till 8pm. Hit this spot up a few times in the last 2 weeks, here is the first video I made.

Hi all, Spent the morning fishing then came home to hang out with my best friend Jack, beautiful afternoon on the ice.

coooool!

what vehicle/ boat you bringing?

You can camp on Lac Seul shorelines or islands for up to 21 days if you are a Canadian resident. See section 3.3 in the link below..... https://www.ontario.ca/page/lac-seul-islands-conservation-reserve-management-statement

Hi all, Jack wanted to fly my new toy, he had no problems.

Not really, pretty basic, but you get get very complicated, jack is seven and he flew it today no props in beginner mode.

Yeah....50....in a week....how the hell did that happen!!!!

Hi All, Got a DJI Mavic for my 50th Birthday......... SERIOUSLY cool gizmo!

Hi all, getting to grips with the back log of videos I have from last year, here is a video of a late summer trip to Lac seul wit da fam. Net man Jack was on good form. Can't wait for summer again!

Hi all, Crappies are on fire, limited out in 25 minutes the other morning, nothing HUGE, but decent fish. Loved these little bug things I found at the bottom of my Gulp! assortment jar, all in 18FOW coming off the bottom.

Nice Cliff, sounds like a BLAST! Good write up too??

Damn, that sucks...i'd be soooooo pissed too, hope the Insurance come through for you, hope they nail the scumbags too!

Hi all, Have a stack of videos from last year to catch up on, my computer has been messing up since last summer and finally got round to fixing it, new SSD and upgraded to 24GB Ram....it screams now. So....here is a video from last fall, out for grouse and walleye at Lac Seul with my best pal Roloff.

Lol, maybe for paying customers! This was just NW Ontario hospitality!? As for my channel, here ya go https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCj99GM-EGBhHYh9tBhnLPeA

Hi all, I have a small youtube channel with a fair few subscribers, sometimes they visit my neck of the woods and I show them around. Lew came up and was staying in his van in the parking lot of Walmart, he declined all attempts to crash at my place...oh well. No way I could let him come all the way up and not have a crack at Lac Seul as well as some shore fishing and our local lake (video on the way for that). We had a great week and lew was a gentleman, even spent a whole day helping to lay laminate flooring at my place. Here is the video from a quick shore fish and our visit to lac Seul.

The crappie in our lake stay relatively deep after ice out, still in the basins at 15-20FOW, they don't really move to the shallows until 2 or 3 weeks after ice out, then they can bee found very shallow in the mud bays and weeds, especially south facing ones. But that is just on our lake, other water bodies in other parts of the province would be different I guess.
