misfish Posted November 30, 2007 Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 (edited) Curl up by the fire with me as I thaw out my toes and fingers.Boy was it a cold one.Well it really wasnt that cold,it was the ride with the legend. I accepted an offer to fish today as it was the last day for Simcoe Smallie fishing.I will be the first toadmit,bass fishing in the warmer months is sooooooooooo,much nicer.LOL Anyhoo,I arrive on time,but my partner for the day was not. I thinking ,oh no,snowed in as he was coming down from the north.I go ramp to ramp just to make sure I didnt miss him or get our info crossed. Im just about to head back to work when I see him coming around the corner.Yes,the legend has arrived. Get to the ramp and I was kinda in awe. Man what a thrill this is going to be. I get out of the truck, walk over and shake my partners hand,with a greeting that was even a surprise to him. We acually knew each other from way back.I use to build homes for this guy. With all the hows things and nice to see you again,it was time to lget on the water with the legend on the cold Simcoe waters. Along with us was a few other well known anglers like David Chong,Mark Kulick,Ward Edmonds to name a few.There were a couple of fish caught during the morning,but it was really slow.We mangaed no fish for our efforts,not even a perch.Drop shotting Strike zone baits and yum tubes didnt seem to be the trick today. Ohwell,I got to ride with a friend and a Legend.70 mph in -7 temps,thats what I call EXTREAM FISHING. Here is the legend,what a ride. My partner,Fred Patterson.LOL Extream weather coming in. Extream Team mobile A short vid as my hand froze in just a few sec. http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v731/mis...ishing07018.flv This boat is fast folks.Hole shot was unbelievable.Up and down gone 70 mph in no time. I have a bit of frost bite on the face to prove it. Thanks for the ride Fred. Edited November 30, 2007 by misfish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A buddy of mine has been telling me to use the helmet in those conditions for years. After bringing them along and leaving them in the storage compartment a few times, I decided to just leave them at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasnt so much the addiction,but the chance to fish from this boat and see what it was like.It got an A+. Ok,it had something to do with the addiction.

Mark Kulik Posted November 30, 2007 Report Share Posted November 30, 2007 Hey Brian , saw you guy's rippin around out there, made me cold just looking at it!, my Tr. hits 70mph, but no way I'm doing it now! too cold !-you guys were moving like your hair was on fire!, Bob Devine from Extreme Angler , drove up from Wndsor to join me for 1 last kick at the frozen can, we boated 8 good smallies, and lost at least that many, Wed. was much colder and we boated 30, drop-shot doesn't work as well when the temps drop , the smallies are belly"s to the bottom , all our fish came on the Carolina rig with, Slammers, I'll post a season recap, a bit later-time to thaw!
