Did you buy a floating, weight forward or double taper line as they all have different characterisics when cast and depending on what temp of water they are supposed to be used in. I use a surgeons knot to attach the line to the leader. Cheers Jeff

I might be heading out sunday for perch off gilford and was wondering if anyones interested?? I have a two man shappel hut and a auger. If anyones interested send me a pm. Cheers Jeff

I was at basspro yesterday and they got some nice waders and good prices on there wading boots. I would take a look there. I'm pretty sure they sell bare there. I have a pair of 5mm neoprene chestwaders and the only problem that I have had is that sometimes they are to warm. I've in fished on many occasions around the minus 10 temps and never had a problem. Cheers Jeff

I might try the notty tommorrow after work and was wondering if I'm going to be able to fish it or if its choclate milk. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers Jeff

Nice winter rainbow, I hope to land a few this weekend. Cheers Jeff

I bought a model 20 for $45 at a hock shop and have found it by far to be the best spinning reel that I have ever used. The guy didn't really know what it was and was supprised at how fast I grabbed it off the shelf. It was also loaded with powerpro 20 lbs. Cheers Jeff

I work for petrocanada and I can tell you there is definately no gas shortage. The reason we pay so much for gas is because alot of our crude oil is sold to the states where they refine it and sell it back to us at an inflated price. And as everyone knows more than half the price of gas is tax. Cheers Jeff

I'd give mountain a try but you will get fish in gull there is just alot more pressure on gull.If you are going through norland I would get large minnows there and use a swivel, couple foot long flourocarbon leader, split shot and a good sharp baitholder hook. If you don't have a sonar then I would just bring the minnows a few feet off bottom. Montain also has whitefish. Cheers Jeff

Good job and nice fish. I think that the warm weather turned the fish on yesterday. Cheers Jeff

I took out my sisters boyfriend today as he had never icefished before. We got to miners bay at 10 is and fished till 4:30. We were fishing in about 70ft and ended up catching two in the slot with a ton of misses. All fish were caught on a swivel split shot and a large minnow. Cheers Jeff

2 lines but all most all the lake trout lakes in the haliburton and minden area are one line only. I f you are not sure look in the regs for that particular lake and they will tell you if there is or not. Cheers Jeff

I was also off there but in 82 ft and we caught 2 lakers and a whitie. We lost one on the way up and only had 10-or 15 hits. Don't give up on lady simcoe she does produce. Cheers Jeff

I would make up afew 2-4 foot leads with a pearl tied on to the end of a treble hook to tie on to the end of your williams. Then you can jig the williams off bottom for lakers and have the treble with the pearl on bottom for whities. I would also bring some hooks and spilt shot to use. Make sure there good hooks like daichi or gamakatsu. Cheers jeff

Very nice whitie.

Greg I moved up to dunsford ( cedar glen rd) this summer and I'm going to get you to take me out in may when pickeral opens. cheers Jeff

I was fishin around 50-60 feet and I think that the flourocarbon leaders that we were using increased are catch because most of the fish weren't hammering the minnows they were lightly hitting it. Cheers Jeff

Sorry forgot to add a link to the picture

I went out on sunday with two friends and I caught four lakers and a buddy caught 2. This pics of the 5lbs 26" laker. All fish were caught on hook and minnow. Cheers jeff 26" laker

I would give bass pro a try I get all of my saltwater materials from there. You could also try micheals the craft store. Cheers Jeff

Beauty lakers greg, everyone I talk to seems to be doing really well this year in the haliburtons. Cheers Jeff

I have fished nassau for bones and permit on a 8 wt flyrod and had good luck with crab, shrimp and attractor patterns. As far as catching them goes look fro really shallow flats where with polarized glasses you should see them tailing and mudding up the water. lots of cudas, jacks and groupers off the reefs. I would get a cast net if you can and catch some small baitfishfor bait of the reefs and dop offs. If you can find some floating structure offshore with birds flying around it throw some bait in the water and you will get a feeding frenzy. Then throw bait on a hook and you should get some fish. You should get some jacks and maybe some dorado. I would get some berkley big game for your reels.If you have anymore questions send me a pm as I could go on forever with tips. Cheers jeff

I have a mora(swede bore) thats got to be 30 years old and works great. I put a new set of blades on every year and I'm good to go. I tried a fin-bore auger but found it awkward and didn't like it but thats my opinion. Cheers Jeff

Nice looking cuda, I hooked one in st.lucia last year on my 8wt while fishing for bones and permit. The permit looking fish that you had on was probally a jack crenalle. cheers jeff

I'm heading up to miners tommorrow and was wondering if you could give me a rough idea of the depth you were fishing. Never fished there before so any help would be gretly appreciated. Cheers Jeff

I went out with troutologist today and fished a small lake off 35 north of minden. We found a average of 3' but some places had 2" and some had 4". After about 4 hours of fishing he caught a nice fat 16" splake and I had 2 hits. All an all a good day and thanks again troutologist for the good day. Chhers Jeff
