Mike the Pike

Wow cool shots

Thanks for the report Jen If only I did not lose my only chance at a Salmon last week I may have caught a 20 plus pounder. Ah a woman who goes fishing catches nice fish and cleans em.I know you do one Helluva job cookin them too. Smoked Salmon sounds deliscious

Great report Tinman I am headed there for one week of camping looks like a great River to go fishing

Thanks Cliff I enjoyed that very much. Is that the house I almost visited MTP

All I can say is wow Justin I am looking forward to the Rideau river this week

Hope its you tomorrow cousin if there is one guy who deserves it is you. I wish your Dad was around he would be so proud,I miss him so much. Only thing that bugs me is there may be one less tiller boat on the water soon Mike

Ah man that was priceless thanks for posting that one he is a natural. Now you have to love the part where he shoves mom's arm out of the way hard to believe he is only 2

Thanks Cliff enjoyed that report and I know how you feel because I Had a big one get away on Sunday too.But ya I know that doesn't count This darn salmon fishing has caught my interest.That pick of the 55 Suzuki brings back memories I had one of those. Excellent report and pics.

Hey Cliff I was so looking forward to stopping at your place on the way home but I understand fishing comes before socializing And once you buy a boat it can't sit there . BTW we were at the Whitby exit in 50 mins.We stopped in Bowmanville I had Timmies and Ryan had some Wendy's for lunch.My chevy Malibu amazed me I got 750kms from 55 litres of gas and it has a V6.There will be a next time cause that Salmon fishing sure has my attention.I hope to meet your whole family in the very near future. See ya soon MTP

OK great report you tease but time to buy a digy camera after all they are getting cheaper cause we love pics. Now I hope to see some pics from that report soon. MTP

Great wack of fish Jacques nice size bass but Paul will be needing some stain remover on that nice white shirt

Ah Emil the hats are getting better bud and I am sure if you ask Wayne he would be very willing to give you his This is the hat I got from Lund much better . MTP

After not going to cousin Percher's last year for Salmon fishing there was no way I was going to pass up an opportunity to go Salmon fishing this year. So off we went Friday night and drove the 6 hours from Montreal to Burlington Ontario arriving late. Friday I got to bed late and could barely sleep my son Ryan and I got up just after five and were excited about finally going Salmon fishing on Big Lake Ontario after a little rain we proceeded to the boat Launch. At the Launch we were greeted by this gentleman(Biteme).It was good to see you again Peter. Now I wonder if this affected me but Pete told me his Dog got prayed by a skunk saturday night. Now no no no.Talking about skunk around me oh no NOT SO GOOD . The late night arrival and early rising was sure affecting Juniors spunkyness.Believe me he would soon be awake. Well after not more than five minutes Junior gets his first ever Salmon the smile on his face was wider than the fish.Dan and I had discussed giving Ryan the first Rod that goes off and the little man got what he came for. My tour guide for the weekend Captain Percher. After a little over 4 hours fishing in the morning we packed it in until Saturday evening. Ryan's Salmon would be the only one for the morning. We were back on the water around 4pm hoping for a king but the fishing was slow notta a snif. That is my Cousin Brent's boat (Percher's Brother and as you can see a pretty good chop. This of course was affecting my little guy the beginning of motion sickness which he never had before He had seen chop like this before and never ever got sick. Then it came to me why he was feeling woozy he had been exposed to Biteme. At this point I am feeling guilty for not bringing the little Lad back in but now its too late. Over the boat he goes Looking Like Biteme the Pro The good news was he was no where as good as Biteme he survived the evening with no discharge Just feeling a little more woozy Time to head in no Salmon .Thats fishing.Must of been the Dried Banana's Percher had in the dried fruit and nut mix. I needed some kind of excuse and found one. Sunday morning and we get out nice and early once again. The time came and I had my chance at a King 30 seconds of the reel screaming and fish gone I was devistated that was some pull.Had not caught a salmon since 1981. We got right back to it. Found these great gentleman on the water.Biteme and Pointed. Remember that boat porn Peter had promised us but never did show us well here it is. Only the Lakair family saw his nice boat.I like it Pete now get some slime in it will ya. Late nights and early mornings caught up with my young fishing partner a 2 hour snooze. Finally a Great lakes trout(Rainbow) for Team #6.Got rid of the skunk barely.Believe it or not that little thing is my new PB Rainbow at 22 inches. Had this guy find us our good friend Slowpoke.Good to see ya Brian eventhough it was only five minutes. Slowpokes buddy has a nice boat. Now that looks like too much work. Me and my best buddy my Son. Cousin Percher. Have to thank you one more time Dan thanks again for inviting us to come down The fishing was tough as it was for most who were out this weekend but you managed to get us a couple of fish. The many years I have gone fishing with you and our family just keep getting better. I look forward to our next Adventure Dan. Thanks so much Ryan and Mike

Welcome Dude never forget the camera.

Yes Dan I love that pic I don't get to see shots like that too often.

Welcome aboard Steve keep them pics coming you will like it here lots of helpful folks a few whackos but we put up with them.

You're so right Jacques since I first bought my Gulp Leeches I have been leaving them at home because that container leaks and when the juice ends up in the boat it smells like 1000 year old fish. $20.00 for smelly leaky juice I feel berkely should send us all a replacement leak proof container. Its a rip off and on not one Walleye on those leeches.

Beautiful pics I must say I have seen the okangon Valley very nice place

Now I really enjoyed that boyz always a pleasure to fish with Cliff one day I hope to fish with you. Thanks for taking the time to post that for a guy who earns his living from the weather you sure can write. Not sure I could look at Cliff with a bug net on his face all day kind of looks like Little Red Riding Hood Well all I need is a Sportspal canoe.I have the same 2hp need to go far North sometime in the near future when my grows a little bigger and stronger. Excellent now I can't wait to see the videos

WTG Steve congrats on 5th place and think of it I live 45 mins from Platsburgh its time to look into buying my New York Licence.

Ya its Sad Carl it seems its the people with permanent cottages that want to be rid of the day boaters who don't reside on the Lake.Darren did mention some lakes are reasonable but it seems not many. THis province is getting to be expensive to live well the hell with them I am going to be In Ontario for 2 weeks one week Camping on the Rideau River and One week in Northbay to visit my Mom. Maybe I will those honey holes that Justin has for nice bass but will be limited to my canoe the first week. MTP

Great mini report Jacques its always safer to head back in but I find too many of my trips this year ended early because of the darn thunderstorms Are you fishing really close to Ottawa?

Very nice Keram how do you get those fish scale patterns on the lure .Is that to secret.

Excellent report boys but that last pic looks like Bill had put the hook in his mouth

Good choice man they are so light to lift and portage .I like my canoe it is stable but 85lbs is heavy to portage. Looking forward to your reports and adventures
