Being from cambridge, I usually try to make it out to shades mill during bass season at least once a week...the weeds along the river mouth hold huge 4-6LB largies that are very fond of spinners, if you can battle the weeds. For pike, I catch alot when I fish just at the mouth of the river when it goes into the lake... starting just out from the boat launch

Cheers Mate!

Nothing I have said is inconsistent with coherent reasoning... Irish's statement wasn't warranted

I'm glad spelling doesnt equate one's intellect or I wouldn't have made it this far in university. My misspelling doesn't change the complete foolish hubris of that guys comment

hmmm, and now I'm questioning your intellect... your assuming I joined simply because I started this thread. Your assumption, based on that 'fact' alone, led you to put some smart-ass comment using rhetoric that gets you know where in conversation. This leads me to conclude that you must be one of the idiots poaching at Mountsberg and tore down the regulation sign yourself, or are simply retarded and have nothing else to do with your time. It's none of your buisnes why I decided to join this site, nor should my first thread lead anyone with a brain bigger than a grape to conclude that this is the only reason for me joining... I love fishing...fish often...there are your reasons.

A couple beers in me and I might have... Something needs to be done, I called the ministry numerous times yet the sign is still not replaced and the waters continuously raped by those that are either ignorant to what they are doing or have just realized that they aren't going to get caught...

Even an extreme dislike for a reservoir does not justify a blatant disregard for its rules and regulations!

I agree 100% with everything you said... you would think that there destroyed fishing regulation sign and pay-box would spark some sort of ministry enforcement but I guess not... Even during the fishing season I also seen people using live bait, keeping over there limit, and one time I even seen a group of people launch one of those big great lake aqua boats with a huge outboard mercury...I canoed over to there boat once they launched, told them they couldn't use there motor, they ignored me... Needless to say on one hand it was funny watching them pull weeds from there motor, but on the other hand it disgusted me with there lack of respect for the rules/regs.

Numerous times during this winter season I have walked my dog along Mountsberg lake. Having fished there often every summer for the past few years, I have a respect for the water and the fish. That said, I also have a great respect and understanding for the rules and regulations. You can imagine how shocked I was to find the Mountsberg rules/reg. sign completely torn off and destroyed (laying on the ground) - while 10+ fishermen (if you want to call them that) were ice fishing on a lake that is closed for ice fishing so the pike can re-group for the summer season. Needless to say I called the ministry numerous times, they told me action has been taken...but im not convinced. I have a feeling Mountsberg fishery can never become what it once was as long as people abuse the rules and regulations... if any of you went to mountsberg conservation and did some ice fishing this year...well...i have some choice words for you
