Lol that southern boy gonna have fun! I hope the ice cracks and makes him run!!! Thats the best???

???? Walleyes up here eat muskies, thats why they get sooooo YUGE!!!

Yeah, but we catch a 100 then switch gears and get 10-12lbers in the same day???

Pick a lake on cedar narrows for instance. 40 lakes and everyone of them is killer good

You need to fish backlakes like mainville, or a bunch of lakes Im not naming on here lol. Go with locals knowledge and now lodges.

15 years in prison?

Trust me ill be making my way to erie one day for bass. I dont see many erie reports of 150 walleye days though lol. Thats cool if ya dont wanna travel here. Maybe its better left untapped?

Thats the thing. You can do one or the other or both. There is SO MUCH LAKES its unreal. Im not joking when I say you can fish 3 lakes in a day no prob

And yes any anti bactial hand rinse, aftershave, moushwash and spraypaint are all under lock and key town wide

Yep. Kenora has massive alcohol and drug issues. Probably the highest per capita ive ever seen. At night youll get stabbed for ten bucks. Not a week goes by without a massive drug bust. Its the only place ive ever seen that has a 100 person line up at the LCBO 2 hours before it opens. The towns a mess in every way

Ah thats def. A good thing! The area is beautiful!!! Just downtown is bad news

Anyways back on topic I see nets set here and they are all identified (on rainy river) I see a few nets here and there on LOTWs unidentified and call them in. Ive only been asked by COs to call them in but im not sure of the legalities of it??? I think they are interested mainly in unattended nets but im not positive on that. A net should only be out for 8 to 12 hours. Otherwise its gonna risk spoiling gamefish

Yeah, you dont wanna be the guy caugjt poaching sturgeon. Its WAAAAAY stiffer laws than other gamefish. These are a protected species. Ive caught them walleye fishing but you cant target them thats for sure. The MNR are cool about a quick pic and release but your actually not supposed to even remove them from the water as youde be in possession. My area is where they spawn in huge numbers. So I see alot of people get busted targeting them

Lol

Lake sturgeon. Pics were on rainy river about 2 blocks from our house

Move to Kenora??? Geez man I hope your daughter is well off financially. Kenora is a dump full of crime. Id rather walk the northend of winnipeg than downtown kenora

Yes AKRI I called the MNR immediately The guy was busted a few weeks later and got hammered in court Turns out he had all sorts of fish and game violations and illegal weapons charges etc

Yep. See my experience. 50 or 60 yards in a few bounds. Us outdoor folk know thats no bobcat or lynx lol BIG CATS

You all know Im an advocate of treaty rights. But im a bigger advocate for nature. Ive called the MNR a few times for unattended/unmarked nets. Give me a second and ill find pics of netted sturgeon left to die in +30 temps in 10" of water. Unexceptable NO MATTER WHAT These fish, by my judgement, were there at least two days. Alive, but no way the survived revival

Fly. Its obviously faster and cheaper. But yeah, for some if ya got great fishing in your area its kinda hard to justify. Until ya spend a week on LOTWs and catch trophies of 6+ species

Yeah i posted that just to show how cheap a ticket is. Winnipeg is the better route no doubt! Way more scenic as well For rainy lake though, go tbay route To vermillion souix lookout kenora ear falls def. Go winnipeg route

Your MORE than welcome to come doug!!! Funny story, and yes I meant to email you a thank you letter for your kind donation! Sorry about that! It came in last week. And my wife decided to take a look. And hooked herself in the finger lol. Not bad but I gotta few swears out of her lol. Thanks again buddy!!!

From kenora, to rainy river, fort frances, dryden, vermillion bay, ear falls to souix lookout is no doubt in my mind the best fresh water fisheries in the world. Shame most canadians dont come. It almost exclusively locals and americans

Probably cheaper if booked in advance.
