Hope you celebrated your anniversary in style. Congratulations to the pair of you. Oh, and I believe Monique would deserve a medal for that many years! Cheers!

I caught my largest Rainbow on this rod. Float fishing in a boat with slip float 20ft down on a marabou fly I tied myself.

Sorry, reading the topic header, I thought it was going to be a picture Justin Trudeau.

It's been 10 years since SPIEL has tied up this fabulous Rain Shadow for me. Still going as strong as the day I picked it up. I'm thinking I've caught at least a dozen fish on it. 😉 Thanks SPIEL for your quality work and craftsmanship. Cheers!

Grant Mills is your man. He is right on top of Minn Kota.

Due to weather, fish lift has been postponed until next Saturday.

I was at one of my suppliers when one of their employees approached me and asked if I had fishing rods stolen. I replied yes in deed I have. Well this guy found some rods near his house last October and reported it to the police. I got his name and phone number and went to the police station. At first, with me being me, demanding they go through their recovered property and see if they have my rods. Emails went back and forth to the point they said the items I was looking for were not recovered and it must have been mistaken. Well, a week goes by, low and behold, I receive another email from the stolen property recovery stating they in fact DO HAVE MY RODS. With the description and photos submitted, it was without a doubt, my property the email said. I go to the station and was quickly reunited with my fishing rods! Everything in tact, only, my IMX tip top guide is missing the SIC insert. The police had them in their possession 4 days after reported stolen! 😳 Bottom line.... I'M HAPPY TO HAVE MY HIGH END RODS BACK! CHEERS...

Success! With the help of many hands, over 200 rainbow trout were lifted over the dam! Thanks to the volunteers who braved the cold water. Cheers!

This is no longer run by the MNRF. This has been organized by volunteers for the past several years. Permits are issued by the MNRF and the local Conservation Authority. There is still a biologists on site to ensure proper handling of fish with minimal scientific data collected (Spieces and sex identification only). So, saying that, volunteers are welcome to attend. Starting time for volunteers will commence at 8:30am. A sign in sheet is required to be covered on the insurance policy. Hope to you there! Cheers, Ron....

Meh... The rebuild you did for me looked better. LOL Just kidding, they all look GREAT!

This one will be a while for me to beat. It's definitely the heaviest rainbow I have ever caught.
