That'll buff right out

Hahahah

Doesnt even hurt. And im not one to bruise easily.

I musta smacked her purdy good

Yeah I didnt bring any grubs or other plastic just crawfish.

Im gonna go try again today, since its +26 ill probably stay longer.

The water is very muddy at least right now. Its like 3" visibility lol.

I might walk further too and look for some structure

Seen alot of baitfish getting chased too. I wonder what they are? Maybe just sucker fry???

Looks like good sucker spawning enviroment but I have zero clue what else is in there

Ill sure have fun finding out though?

Perch coloured necklace. Solid.

My daughter makes them. They are awesome!

All tackle

Fell off the bank and landon on a rock

Good pain lol

Oh it was a blast?

Ill be right back down there tommorrow

Well, we moved into a new home december.

Big bonus is that rainy river is still a hop skip and a jump from our front door step.

But...we have a small river about 300 yards from our backyard?

Im not sure what took me so long but +23 temps and no wind made me venture out today.

Now, previously ive asked the locals and all said no fish, dont bother.

So I go down this even to wash some lures, no expectations. Navionics days 7 fow. A jig says 13

I get down there, sèe about 20 turtles sunning on the mud bank, quickly scurry into the water on my arrival.

I set up and fish are jumping everywhere!

Now im excited!

Beautiful weather, virgin river, fish jumping and nature. It doesnt get any better then this...

Until...

I start casting. Follow ups on almost every cast. Mainly small pike, and a few bass.

I wash top waters, spinner baits, some crawfish, and some twitch baits.

All get follows

Not ONE single hookup!

In two hours i probably seen 30 fish, and couldnt catch one!!!!

All i could do was laugh and enjoy the scenery

I will post a few pics but photobucket is being a pain in the...

I spent 2 hours carving and sanding a trident shaped stick today for weiner roasting at the fire pit.

Yes I was bored lol

If you drive through fort frances let me know

Lotsa good fishing to be had up the road. Im in pinewood ontario.

It is about a 50 minute detour though,

But you can gain that time back if you go states side on route to winnipeg

Lotsa open water

Watch the excemptions, bass is closed zone 5(changed last year)

Appendage extension, like most specialty car. LOL

 

Dan.

Hahahah

If I had the cash to blow on a car for fun, this is what it would be...

Well thats it shut down the thread, thanks Mike???

That looks unreal.

But I will take a side of that venison to go with yours?

Here is a question for you car nuts.

Out of all the newer cars, what would be your pick?

Woot woot!!!!

Nice pics everyone!

Sorry cliff for misreading that.

Still 60 a year is a decent wage, never mind figuring in food, shelter etc.

I hope it works out and youse all find a way, but i wouldnt reject help.

Your situation is insane, you shouldnt have a worry in the world but your family

Lol lucas

Can you people believe the fish Chris found here???

Unreal

Good on ya for laying tobacco down?

Awesome fish, great pics!!!

And lil fisher looks great Chris?

Ummmmm....

Follow your dreams I suppose

Big cliff,

I was not aware of your personal situation. Im not sure maybe you mentioned it on here and I just missed it???

Thats completely insane what is happening to you and your family, im soooo very sorry. And like a good man, i know youde do whatever it takes(as would most of us) for your family.

This is a little off topic but ive seen some people posting on a website to get donations for certain causes. I wish I remembered the name???

Try to find it so us OFCers can donate and share the heck out of it.

I know charity is not the preferred choice for most strong family men, but geez at this point it cant hurt.

How in this country is medicine so expensive???? 60,000/month and not covered????

Human lives exceed dollar amounts. Somewhere we have this assbackwards

Darn technology lol.

I went from iphone 4 to galaxy s5 like 7 months ago and im still learning what this phone can do haha(besides tell me I walked 22,000 steps yesterday)

From mobile, at least on android, when you select the photo on phtobucket it gives four codes, click the last one.

Then copy/paste into your post on ofc
