UNREAL! best of luck to ya Jen when they finally get round to your surgery.

Already planning on hitting up the lake in this report on Saturday. Saturday is the only day i really have to go fishing for the next week and a bit....wanna join us? More than enough room on my sled.

Will do my best...planning to hit up the same spot on Saturday....should be able to get a walleye soon after the starting gun goes off!

Thanks solo....erm...i mean Mike. Thanks Matt....come on up! BWAHAHAHAHA......LOL. Thanks Bruce Yeah, they have some pretty decent whitie fishing in that area. LOL.....now that would be a G2G for sure! Welcome any time bro! making the whitefish jambolaya tomorrow.....be here around 6pm......hope you like home made garlic bread too.

Outstanding report....great pics....really enjoyed that!

Great stuff Aaron. simcoe seems to be a fish factory!

Nice one Bruce....supper must hvae been good

Awesome....biggest whitie i've ever seen.

Our HH here has a great owner (nice guy) but some of his staff are ridiculous! Ordered $6500 worth of Patio doors.......wrong ones were ordered by staff. They tried to blame their mistake on me and were refuing to take back the doors...effectively leaving me with $6500 worth of useless to me patio doors. I pointed out to them that it was their mistake for ordering 'new build' doors (4.5" wider...might as well be a mile) when i had documented proof of our conversations and photos about my EXISTING doors I wanted to replace.....i.e. they should have ordered the 'renovation' doors from their own catalogue which incidentally matched the original measurements i'd given them........DUH! (both the new build and reno doors were on the same page of their suppliers catalogue.....guess thats what happened then). The correct doors were ordered and i notice on my new invoice that my original discount was now gone! They are charging me full price for the doors out of spite for a mistake they made???!!!! I called the manager and after some debate the original discount was restored. It took 6 weeks for the wrong doors to come in....i was told they would put a 'rush' order for the right doors.....and could expect them within a week....2 weeks maximum. Well 6 weeks later no doors. I call and am told "the doors are here"....very abruptly and rudely. Turns out they had been there a week....just nobody had bothered to call. I asked if they would like to deliver them any time soon......yes.....I was heavily sarcastic....I was beyond pissed now......I am told that "if i want them delivered " i will have to be there to help unload!????!!! At that point the switch was flicked and i let loose on the woman......lots of cursing and "i'm not on your payroll.......get over here with my doors!" The doors were delivered a week later. All good except i ordered the doors so they would arrive at the end of October but did not get them until the beginning of Jan........just in time to install them in -30C! SHOP LOCAL? BWAHAHAHAHAHA! That is fast becoming an oxymoron in this town .

Thanks dood THANKS tERRY Thanks Joey My pleasure HAHA...you'd know Ben....maybe next weekend eh?.......sorry i missed Grahams visit up here at Xmas. it was a hoot for sure Thanks man

Yup.......its a pretty awesome lake....but it can be a real stubborn one too......yesterday the fishing gods were with us. pretty close to the biggest ones iv'e posted......awesome fight they put up! Thanks Thanks...was a blast for sure Thanks Wayne yup love it...next week we will try to get some walleye to play too. Thanks man

Thanks Don....my buddy is still kicking himself for doing what he did.

Hi all, Went for some Lakers and whitefish today with the plan of heading 30kms into the bush afterwards to chase walleye too. The whitefish and trout cooperated and just as we were going to head out to the next lake so we could be there before dark......I lost a whitefish at the hole and before i could shout "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" .......my buddy Cliff's reflexes kicked in and he had his arm down the hole up to his shoulder attempting to get it back......DOH! He spent the next 45 minutes drying out clothes in the shack....we never made it for walleye. We did did get around 20 whities and 2 nice trout. Cliffs trout was 32" long with a 17'girth.......mine was also 17" girth but shorter at 28". Cliff said that was the best fight he had ever had on the ice which made my day as this was the first time i had brought him to this lake....after many stories of how good the fishing can be. Jigs and really tiny minnows got cliff all his fish including the big trout, and i got my whities on crappie tubes and the trout on a 6" dace minnow on a circle hook. All fish in the 36' - 40' FOW range. Next weekend we intend to do the same but make time for walleye again...Cliff promises to stay dry till we achieve that....lol.

Do I even need to defend myself here???

We definitely have been spoiled, when we first moved here this was normal.......the last 3 years have been insane here...in the boat first week of April......+25C in March......no snow till December....crazy weather. Yikes! That will get the ice going down there! We are lucky here....at least there is no wind today....all school buses cancelled though. Very old. Its messing up fishing....thats for sure! Yup...its actually now a balmy -31C at 10am! and nipples like bullets!

Hi all, Just went to let the dog in and noticed our thermometer............................

Saw this posted on a skidoo forum....AWESOME. Here is the trailer from youtube....if you have netflix it is on there. Happy veiwing. http://www.youtube.com/embed/JVYXrhQKUbA

Nice going Tbay.......i tried frank's with walleye last night for the first time...gonna put that %$#$ on everything from now on!

Now that would be cool!

Hi all, saw this on another website i frequent...i thought it was pretty cool. Most times when fishing i will drill lots of holes in a pattern to cover some contours at any given spot. Usually when with buddies, we have a couple drilling holes and someone else following behind clearing slush...usually get most of it out with the auger.....but would this be neat when you had a lot of holes and wanted to clear them fast! http://www.slushcopter.com/Videos.html

MANITOUBASS FOR PRESIDENT!

Thanks folks, will check out all suggestions. Got all the snowblowing done....now do i wanna head out fishing in minus 28C with a 30kmh wind?....probably....lol.

Hi all, Just wondering if anyone can offer a diagnosis. My snowblower has electric start. It makes an electronic whirring sound when i press the button but does not seem to be connecting to the engine....its sounds like something is spinning freely in there but not connected to anything. It will need to warm up a bit before i can turn it over with the pull start.
