Dogs and cats are now playing together in the street! I think they must all be blind... HH

My wife and I spent a week there back in the early 90's. Fairly rustic, but they did have a generator that they ran during daylight hours. Fishing there can be tough and has been mentioned, reefs are everywhere! Don't know what happened to the place as we have never gone back. HH

We watched that match last night and I gotta say that it was some of the most entertaining tv we have seen in a long time! Talk about David vs Goliath! So proud of the way this youngster has represented Canada and most likely will continue to do so... unlike a certain young lady who see's herself representing her country as a "burden". HH

You'll never win that argument south of the border pics! HH

Well, I have a vacation report I was going to put up, with pics. Now, I have no idea how I can post the pics, so no report from McGregor Bay from me. If anyone has a recommendation, I'm all ears. I did set up an Imgur account, but I can't figure out how to move the pics from my pc to their web site. I am and will always be, a technical dunce! HH

You forgot the Hickory Chips on the board Art! Gotta mask the taste of the fish when eating the board. HH

LOL! HH

Most likely to break something at the worst possible time... Terry! HH

I couldn't watch more than a minute as I could feel my blood pressure rising! The only thing that would have saved that self righteous penis from my full wrath was the fact that there were kids present. Had they not been there, my response to him would have been banned from bookface. HH

Well done MNR! Doubling the fines would be even better!!!! HH

Thanks for this! That's the plan OI! Pike and Musky I am told. Loading up one rod with full floro, well because I can! Again, many thanks to all who took the time to respond, all are much appreciated! HH

Thanks everyone! I have most of what you guys have mentioned, so I am developing a plan of attach. Underlining theme seems to be light line and floro leader. We'll have a bunch of "kids" with us, so my thinking is setting the kids up for any that follow up to the boat (jigs w/ worms, minnows) and me tossing baits to draw them in. Thanks again everyone! HH

Hey folks, I have a trip coming up where I am told, I will find smallies. I don't really fish for them, so I don't have a great deal of experience targeting them. The place we are heading is said to be clear water, with temps in the low 60's. There are tons of bays, reefs etc nearby, so we should have structure to fish. Hoping you good folks could make some suggestions as to lures you would toss at them. I have a few top water baits and an assortment of lures to chose from, but I am wondering what you folks who target them would recommend given the clear water and cooler conditions. All suggestions are appreciated! HH

I'd call that a lead head as a steel head wouldn't have bent. HH

As my friend Bernie would say about sheep head, "if a seagull won't eat it, I sure as h e double hockey sticks won't". HH

Great video and catches! Thanks for sharing! Just imagine how many more fish you would have caught had you not had a banana in the boat! HH

I've posted this before, but it has been years so I'll do it again... Asparagus, marinated in Kosher salt, olive oil, Balsamic Vinegar and crushed black pepper. Leave it on the counter for a few hours, until the Asparagus starts to slightly wilt. You'll need; -prosciutto, a hard cheese and a red pepper. (Smoked Gouda has been my favorite!) Cut the pepper into slices, roughly the same size as the Asparagus, same the with cheese. Roll three spears of asparagus, one slice of red pepper and one slice of cheese with the prosciutto, using a tooth pic to hold it all together. Grill on medium heat until the prosciutto browns and the cheese starts to melt out the end. Should take less than 5-6 minutes. I brought these to a gtg we had at Quinte a number of years ago. I had a number of folks who hate asparagus try it and they are now asparagus fans! Makes a killer side dish. Thank me later! HH

Bacon wrapped corn on the cob... drops mic, walks away! HH

A little O.T. ... I used to work for a fellow who raised racing pigeons. He had hundreds in his coup and would attempt to mate the fasted birds, in an effort to win the various races he competed in. He would "cull" the losers by bringing them into the office in a large carry cage. I would come into the office and hear all kinds of "cooing". When I returned to the office after lunch, the "cooing" was no where to be heard. I asked what happened to the pigeons... Well, one of the managers was of European descent and his father lived near the office. Pigeoni on a bun was dinner that night! I LMAO, knowing that those pigeons were probably the best fed birds in the province! HH

I've already done that Brian! Baked the potato, cut in half the long way and scooped out the middle leaving something similar to potato skin, Using the potato innards, I added three kinds of cheese, pick any you like, bacon bits (REAL!) chopped green onions and stuff that mixture back into the two halves of the potato. Put the two sides back together and wrap it up in a few slices of bacon. Tooth pics to hold it all together. (I hate maple bacon, but I mistakenly bought some and used it on this recipe and I was pleasantly surprised by how it came out.) Big blob of sour cream was the icing on the cake. HH It's a bit of work, but tasty. For less work and almost as good, just wrap the potato in bacon and bake it.

How is this a good use of resources? Two wardens (my assumption, could have been more) are wasting time looking for what could be poachers because of one piece of fish without skin? Wouldn't their resources be better spent looking for folks raping the resource with buckets of fish? Chasing folks in outta the way places only makes sense if there has been a tip given to the MNR. Looking for offenders in much more traveled areas, with a higher number of active fisherman seems to me to be the best use of their time and money. Any fine they do levy will be peanuts compared to the cost of them actively chasing out of the way fishermen. HH

Brian, bacon wrapped baked potatoes! Good sized bakers and completely wrap them in bacon, using tooth pics to hold the bacon in place. I suggest that they are best done in the oven, 375 for about an hour. BBQ tends to flare up a bit with the bacon drippings. HH

Benos sank... HH

Livin the life Simon! HH

That was highly entertaining! Thanks for sharing your outing! HH
