That is one good looking retro musky mount for 40 years old Lew, usually they were filled with plaster, and had rippled skin etc, but that one looks like she would stand the test of time, and likely still looks good today in your garage. Thought you were John Boy Walton there for a minute, not sure if he fished skis or not. No wonder Diane had the hots for for a dapper looking young lad like you.

5:00 sounds correct bankers hours 9 to 5

Got rid of wfn about 3 months ago, and havnt looked back

Dont know about Pigeon, but there is open water with ice free launches, and muskies to be had, but lakes are starting to really tighten up, rivers on the other hand fish are pounding big flies, when other guys are using glides, jerks and big rubber on conventional musky gear and moving nothing.

Those 30 to 40 inchers are great on a fly rod, and add a whole new dimention to my musky fishing, as there not much fun on an 8 1/2 foot rod with 100 pound braid, thats where the Larry comes in though

X2 her family support system is truly amazing, and truly defines what we as Canadians try to instill in our children FAMILY FIRST, Wayne and Leah and the rest of your immediate and extended families are an inspiration to us all, along with a great medical support team, and a very resilient daughter in Jenn, who always seems to look at the positive side of things, Thanks for keeping us informed and God Bless Jenn and you family

Had the same thing happen to me years ago, on a 6500 ABU, the two spot welds broke, had the foot not spot welded, but welded back to the frame, have to remove all parts that dont take heat, ie washers, plastic etc, but it had weld marks on it, and cosmetically looked like crap, but never failed again, Now its TEs, and Tecota's no looking back, but still use Revo Toro's though

A true legend, when Quinn coached the leafs, and was doing drills on the ice, Darcy Tucker went up the ice with his head down, Quinn assumed Tucker new he was there, and that he would move out of the way, but he didnt, and ran into Quinn, and layed on the ice knocked out counting sheep, after he woke up Tucker said hitting Quinn was the hardest thing he has ever hit, and categorized it as like running into a train. Bobby Orr also took a few heavy hits from Quinn as well. RIP Quinn and Burnsie my 2 favorite coaches of all time

A couple of issues ive seen is the snow plows have plowed, but have left a big lump of snow, right where the boat drops to the water. and there 2 to 2 1/2 feet high, so id bring a shovel to clear a path,

As Mike mentioned the CO received the call, and responded immediately, as there was video as proof, and not word of mouth, Mike, and a few others know the particular CO that laid charges, and have nothing but good words to say about his dedication to our Natural Resourses, but its up to a judge to lay the fine, and judges tend to be very lenient, but they do have to deal with public humiliation, which could be much worse then the fine, as weve already seen the angler in damage control mode.

My Dad has a good one for those people, when they ask if the home owner is home, he says that the paramedics are trying to revive him, and if he wakes up ill have him call you, usually they are stumped for a response, and dont know how to respond to that

I want one to cuddle with, the one on his or her back needs a belly rub

Nice video Simon, by the looks of those clouds, theres more snow to come

A truly instrumental master piece, by David Gilmour, and Nick Mason, which is a tribute to the late Pink Floyd Keyboard player Richard Wright, after a long day on the river steelheading, sitting back, relaxing to this album, with a glass of Glenfiddick scotch, and a big fat Cuban cigar, life is good, too damn good.

Hope Ralphie didnt roll in any dead sammins

Nice website, the bikini clad girls are gorgeous, forgot to look at the rods

usually the colder the slower, which is what we as anglers are programmed to think, that would be a good rule of thumb, or starting point, but if it doesnt work do something different, ie fish a little faster, regardless of water temps fish still have to eat, although most late fall feeding windows are very short, and usually not too many of them in a day, maybe only one, pay attention to moon phases, if your GPS has them thats even better.

i would still start big if casting big mag dogs etc, and would go for glide baits especially the drop bellies, and suspending or weighted ones which will hang in there face longer, and not pop up to the surface, ie Hellhounds would fit this, trolling 10 to 14 inch grammas, jakes, believers etc, varie speeds up to about 3.7km, casting minnow baits ie Bomber Long A mags, one of my go to's and deptraiders, phantums etc would also be a good bet, i would first be looking at sharp breaks into deep water, also green weeds should still hold fish, sunken reefs, the first drop off from the shoreline, which will usually be close to where the first weed edge will usually end, and also the 2nd break especially this time of year where it breaks into the basin, as turnover is through, and bait should be deeper, especially during the day, most important is the ability to fish till dusk, and be mentally ready at that time, as the last hour of light can, and usually produces big fish. If you have a big follow during the day, you want to be on that big fish spot the last hour of daylight. I will be doing the exact same thing this weekend and this will also be my go to plan, along with the above standard musky tackle, i will have a couple of fly rods, one with an intermediate sink tip, and the other a full sink to get to the 20 foot level, and flies from 8 to 12 inches Good luck

Its tough but were learning Art, thought this would be locked long ago

Awesome news Lew, she married a firemen and a musky fishermen so shes got to be tough,

And she gets income tax back each year on money she never earned, she didnt live north of highway 7 by chance LOL

Nice fish Matt,

Could it be an old sign from the spring, theres still some signs in the lower otonabee that the MNR have put up,

Otonabee is a good bet for sure, if you want less travel, put in at any of the river mouths emptying into L Ontario, troll Rapalas or spoons etc and hangon, browns and steelhead will be close by
