yawn.... NAH, I'M JUST KIDDING! LOOKS GREAT MIKE! Yes, I'm yelling. Long sleeve in black for those cold days in the Spring and Fall please 2X. What's that saying? Oh ya, the cheque is in the mail.

Mostly because there is not an advisory council for FMZ 19. There is only a few FMZs left that do not have an advisory council. Therefore there is no voice from stakeholders on that particular body of water. I will see what i can dig up in regards to background information you may find interesting. Perhaps do a google search on Mark Ridgeway of Trent University http://www.mnr.gov.on.ca/en/Business/LetsFish/2ColumnSubPage/STEL02_166747.html Cheers, Ron...

As Buckster says, it was pretty easy to understand the sign posted. It read to the effect of "No fishing on the "upstream" side of the CNR bridge. I think what finally made them say enough is enough.... People were actually standing on the extreme up stream side and then casting another 20- 30 ft up from there. Their reasoning???? One guy said "well I am only casting up another few ft, it gives my float a chance to settle"....

No. Sorry, let me think about that..... Nope, the answer is still NO!

Try it and let us know how it works out for ya. Cheers, Ron....

Best is to buy a map and look for deep water closest to shore. There are a few places where there is 80fow relatively close. Cheers, Ron...

Sorry can't help ya. I don't know the area. Anyone else want to lickmyamrpit?

Bank up the snow as high as you can afford without jeopardizing the strength of tent. About 5-10 minutes before bed, start up the Coleman lantern. Leave your sleeping bag open for this period and place the clothes you are going to wear the next day between your sleeping bag and roll. Sleep with socks on and have a toque handy to put on as well. Don't forget a pee bottle so you don't have to go out side. You waste more heat and energy avoiding to go pee than to just suck it up and relieve yourself.

What do Coyotes, Fox and every other wild or domesticated animal do? Hey, when ya gotta go, ya gotta go. I do however, try to be more diligent on taking care of business BEFORE I go out fishing.

Very impressive. I have no doubt in my mind that Chris would be an outstanding teacher on such a fine art. Cheers, Ron...

Or, you can make them yourself. This is shots of my "how to" from several years back.... I use clear lacquer nail polish as a finish coat.

Blackie has long passed away. Lyons probably told you about the noodle rod of Blackies he has now brought out of the closet and uses on occasion at the river. Nooch even puts a Hardy fly reel on it like in the good old days. Rumour has it, that Kovack is still on the green side though.
