Geez, by the looks of that pole, just pick it up.Cant weigh more that 70-80lbs.it looks like cedar, and dried like it is, it must be lite as a feather

ITS PRETTY SMOOTH METAL.IF YOU ARE CAREFUL, YOU SHOULD BE FINE.

LOL !!!!! Like i said, since he is my brother, it must be hereditary :rofl2:

Hey Sin.... No comment on the gloves ??? I think it may be hereditary:w00t:

Just got a Double downeaster.Took me a couple of times to get used to releaseing it under load, but they are great.

The fish was marked on both sides like that.Seems like a good assumption that something grabbed it.

Nice fish Gotta love the kids fishin' Those smiles are pure joy.

I saw it, it was awesome !!! Simon, you really do things all the way!!! No half measures for you eh?

Dang !!!!! That sucks big time !!!!

Like Brian said, as far as i can tell, we caught it on the Americain side, (they should make that red line thicker so geezers like me can see em LOL) You know that religious island?? on the shoreline south of that island is where he was. As soon as i realized we were in the states, we booted it back across that little red line

I'm too bloody fluffy !!!!!

My Brother and I decided to hit some unfamilliar waters on the nearby St Lawerence River.We chose a spot "near" Morrisburg and headed out yesterday at 5am. I recently added Navionics to my Humminbird and we launched the boat, and scanned the map for what our experience told us should hold fish.We new it was going to be a long morning, and we tried tubes, jigs, plastics, and trolling.We were out for smallies or walleye, what ever we could find.We planned to be off the water around 1PM, to avoid the biggest heat.By 7am, we were taking off the sweaters and long pants, and settleing down in shorts and our lucky matching,fishing shirts About 2 hours into it, my Brother hooked into this 8 lb Beauty of a Pike.It totally destroyed the Rapala we had been using for the Smallies. I have never seen a lure be destroyed like that before. Ripped the tail hook out, all the way up the center to the middle treble.Check out the bite marks on the side of this fish.I can just imagine the beast that tried to have it for lunch Then nothing for 3 hours Finally, just as we were getting frustrated, i took out my Cell.Brian asked what the heck i was doing, and i said Watch this Got Musky Mike on the phone, Told him where we were and he said you see that ------- due west of your position on GPS? I said yup, sure do. He said go there, wait till you see the depth go sharply from --to-- feet, and start trolling in the current,with what we use for walleye. 10 Minutes later i had this 5lber on . We weighed it.It was a hog.I am a big dude, and my arms are not extended, and it was as wide as me I guess sometimes, its not what you know, its who you know Thanks for the tip Mike. You saved our day out there.

Now thats a bucket Hawg !!!. Congrats !!!

I guess the current is reducing the water temp, and bringing them food.I found a similar spot here n the Larry.I jig and drift, and where the bottom drops to 17 feet,Bam....nice little slot sized walleye, and smallies, and sheeps head,and perch Water temp is 1-2 deg cooler in this current.

Jesus !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Dont ever do that again!!!!!!!!!!!almost burned my you know whats

Mike, Sorry to hear this.I went through a similar situation a while ago.Thought Mom was going to leave us just before Christmas. Familly will pull things together and things will be ok. Hang in there bud.

Happy birthday my friend May this year be filled to the brim with love ,joy and happiness.

Nice shootin Bud !!!!

From what i have heard about your boat, you could tow a moose onto plane, no problem.

Follow the instructions on the bag.Keep the bed box in the fridge. Use rainwater or distilled water to mix.Start with less than they say, mx, and add a bit as necessary.Bring the worms to a boil......No....just kidding. Put worms in fridge in original container until they are the same temp as the bed box.Then transfer over.You can buy food too in powdered form.easy to use.

It's So Hot....... I saw two trees fighting over a dog!! It's So Hot....... I saw a cop chasing a thief, and they were both walking!! It's So Hot....... I saw a funeral procession pull thru a Dairy Queen!!

:thumbsup_anim: This is the best post in months !!! Made me smile a whole lot:clapping:

We are such a talented bunch of boys and girls:clapping:

I hear that the fishing is good I would buy there for sure if i could The Bass fishing is fine But you'll need some strong line Cause the trophies abound, understood?

This heat is affecting the prices of many things.The guy at the local fish market said crabs are going for 10-12 bucks a piece. I said "Shake hands with a millionare"
