snag

My very sincere condolences Jacques,

Good to have family near.

Grant

I think this place is like a rash that won't go away, or a scab that you just can't leave alone. I hate it. And the mods too. Jerks.

Yeah,

If they didn't pay me,

I wouldn't show up.

I too have stayed at Wolseley Lodge. Cabins are comfortable and they have a restaraunt if you don't feel like cooking. Lots of weedline lines and bays. Try by the Five Finger falls for walleye. And watch for rocks.

Good luck

I stayed at Bryers when it was called Waverly Lodge ('90); last year stayed at Wolsley Lodge. comfortable cabins, a real super Friday night buffet.

 

Have been taking the fam to Dry Pine Camp near Alban for the last 10 or so years. Nice clean cabins and good value for your buck. We always get a 3 bedroom cabin and a 16' lund with a 20hp (incl gas) for a reasonable cost. Fishing has been pretty good in July for me. Many nice fish have been caught right off the dock. Walleye fishing has improved dramatically over the years that I've been there.

Thanks,

You've justified our decision!

It's just what we wanted to hear.

Great area, accomodations and superior dock fishing can't be beat!

RAF,

Many thanks for your recommendations and years of observation in the area.

I forwarded parts of it to me brudder' so that they understand the rules of the region.

(3rd party makes the medicine go down)

Now I'd better not disappoint you all!!!

Cheers,

S.

Now, don't get wingy,

But, that may be a WORLD RECORD TIGER WHITIE!!

CONGRATS BEN

Forget the fish,

Jessies a keeper!!!!

Guess I owe you $5

That should stimulate you

Wow GCD,

Never knew that!

Iceslayer,

Make some local cats happy!

Save yourself!

Randy, thank you very much.

I've sent those on to my brother.

It's his decision because he's bringing the troops with him!

Rich,

WOW, what a novel!

Thanks so much.

I copied your reply and mailed it to my brother to forward onto the group.

I'm hoping that it will get everyone to reconsider may and push into July.

Our group is growing thanks to family on my brothers inlaws and that may push us into the campground/trailer park you recommended.

Topwater Musky would be soooooo nice!

Thanks again!

P.s. Did I tell you I grew up with Airedales. Great family dogs

Steve-Paul,

Thanks for the PM!

Hope we can connect.

Thanks again.

OFC Rules!

Yeah that looks like fun man.

Can't wait to get the family out there too.

We should talk Grant.. I have "extended" family on the French!!

 

And don't even think of backing out on our trip to Muskoka.. It's still in the works!

 

Until then, take your meds and have yourself a little chill session in the lab.

 

aayooooo!!

Okie Dokie

Thanks for da scoop.

The second one is looking silverish even with the spots.

Reel must be in working condition.

Anyone wants to drop in,

Just follow the fire trucks!!!

Can't wait for a report

Agreed,

I'm hoping I don't have to play the role of C.O. and enforcer with some of the unknowns.

Previous participants have ragged about my rigidity and said I should relax

I remind them of the cost of a fine (+ everything they own) vs. a fish.

Suddenly, I'm not so anal anymore

Unfortunately.. Muskie won't be open in late May. You'z gonna be fishing Pickeral and Pike only Snag !

 

And Memquisit is actually right by the West Arm... just a couple miles, if that, from hwy 64 and Lakair Lodge. Nice sheltered area off Nippissing to Fish, but a pretty good run to get into the French.

Yeah I know but it was the only time all our schedules worked.

I'm trying to push the date for Musky.

Thanks IF,

I really have to work on these guys.

There will be 6 or more of us!

I stayed at Bryer's twice and was very pleased with the accommodations, location etc.

 

The French is littered with Bays, drops, islands, weedbeds, and structure. I recommend looking at previous posts for general fishing locations for Wolseley Bay.

 

There are some trophy musky that cruise by the lodge daily. We were hanging out at the main lodge one day, which overlooks a rock shoal, and we saw two monster musky cruise by. Don't hesitate to throw out a live sucker bait from shore, I'm confident that you'll hook into a big ole pike or musky.

 

I was fortunate enough to catch a 50+ musky about a 5-10 minute boat ride from the lodge.

 

Good luck with your search.

Thanks Bassman,

I'll pass this onto me brudder'.

Sucks that I won't be there for musky season but we may re-schedule to be there for it.

Cheers,

Snag

Accommodations:

My brother is looking into booking a place for us near the end of May.

Northern channel area I believe.

Here are a few cottages and lodges being considered:

Green Bay Cottages

Bryer’s Lodge

Memquisit Lodge

Any one have any recommendations?

We don't need anything fancy because we'll spend the days fishing and the nights hunting down unwanted renegade braincells.

Feel free to divulge generally good fishing areas. (Northern channel )

Thanks!

Snag

I won't be baited into this immature conversation.

um,

Well, anyways, since I'm here......

It's Toronto......TORONTO.

Why would I have pike envy?

MINES BIGGER

Love the video.

I have to try the float thing one day.

The man with the funny voice is funny.

Congrats on not sleeping very soon!!!!

Nice ones!

Perch look like they're gonna POP!

Superior Documentation

Brilliant Life Experience.

Archived.

Thanks

Hopefully will have better luck with the fishing next time.

Oh yeah,

Like you were skunked!

About bloody time!

We're not getting any younger around here (GCD et al)

Thanks for the "private" pics of the trip.

GCD paid handsomely for them. Consider the irony for a second.

Now get back to work!

You're mad.

It was clearly murky out there.

Yet you went anyways??!!

I'm waiting for Tuesday for the brown water to leave.

I'm in awe of the species that are attracted to the warm water there.

Can't wait for your piranha and shark reports! LOL

Way to go EHG (Erik Has Gonads)

Blimey thay's a nice pike Limey. Don't take Snag too seriously. He's one of those "Taranna" types. It's all that foul air they breath in.

Where's Beamsville?

I can't find it on a map

One of the worst cases of Pike Envy I've ever seen... disgusting!!!

Big deal,

So I'm a little jealous!

Better watch that,

I hear your eyes turned blue from excess viagra?
