fishnsled Posted May 29, 2008 Report Posted May 29, 2008 (edited) I figured that I was over due for a fishing report so here ya go. I ran into a buddy of mine at a party last Saturday night. We got chatting about trying to get some time on the water together and how difficult it has been. Lincoln has his own business that he's started up and as most of you know that can be quite demanding of your time. He does animal control - skunks, raccoons, birds, bats and even did a beaver the other day that had made it's way onto someone's gazebo. Anyways were trying to pick a day to go out and I told him that I had a seat in the boat for the next day. He did some pleading with his girlfriend (actually he just asked, she's pretty cool!) and she said go ahead. Lincoln must have really wanted to go as he left the part before I did! lol! I should mention that Lincoln is the king of the camera. I've never known anyone to snap off as many shots as he does. The following shots are a very small sample of the pics he took of our day together. I'll let the pictues do most of the talking. The next morning I picked up him up just after 5:30am and was surprised he was moving, if you know what I mean. He needed a bit food to get the day going. Nothing like some cheese to settle the stomach?? After loading up we headed over to Timmy's for some munchies and coffee. I should mention that with all the bad press that Timmy's been getting that I'd share some good. The staff were very friendly for that time of the morning and the server went out of her way to get Lincoln his flavour of Timbit. Thumbs up to the Timmy's in Brooklin. Some snacks for the day. You'd think I was the one with the hangover and I only had 2 beers all night. A couple of pics from the trip up. At the launch. Some new "friends" that blew a stop sign to get in front us, failed to pay on the way into the park and still left the launch after us. We stopped to grab this picture. Out on spot #1 we marked lots, had a few bumps and saw a couple caught but nothing boated for us. Where's the fish? He's got one. Lots of bugs. Move locations and the bugs came along, water was pretty rough as well. But we finally got onto them! Hooked in the mouth too!! Notice the eggs coming out of her, a bit late for this I think but it was in 70ft of water! Not to be out done it was my turn. Lincoln decided he wanted to down size a bit and threw out a crappie jig and grub rig I had in the boat and nailed this. After the pics and release I figure that there is going to be a battle today. So not to be out done I pulled up this guy. Lincoln replies with this one. At this point there's no way I'm going to loose this so I pull up this one. Followed by this one. :D Just an AWESOME day on the water with a very good friend. And no there never really was a battle just some good fishing that really did go back and forth like a tennis match. And now for the money shot, next time I'll have dinner at your place. Thanks for a great day and let's not wait so long until the next time. Sunday right?? Edited May 29, 2008 by fishnsled
misfish Posted May 29, 2008 Report Posted May 29, 2008 (edited) A greyling?????????? LOL Super post and what a spread on the BBQ. Edited May 29, 2008 by misfish
jwl Posted May 29, 2008 Report Posted May 29, 2008 looks like a great day on the water, a good mixed bag and a bit of friendly competition along the way..nothing like a good day on the water ended with a big chow down like you guys where cooking up there
Greencoachdog Posted May 29, 2008 Report Posted May 29, 2008 A greyling?????????? LOL Super post and what a spread on the BBQ. I think that would be a juvenile Whitefish. Great report and pics!!! Were those bugs skeeters or something else?
misfish Posted May 29, 2008 Report Posted May 29, 2008 I think that would be a juvenile Whitefish. At first I was thinking a Herring.LOL Upper lip over lapping bottom. You would be correct.
tbayboy Posted May 29, 2008 Report Posted May 29, 2008 There are shrimp in Simcoe? Looks like a great way to spend the day to me (bugs aside). Congrats.
smbhunter Posted May 29, 2008 Report Posted May 29, 2008 Great report and pics. Lincoln was the residence building advisor at SSFC during my first year there. Great guy, and good to hear he's his own boss and doing well. Hopefully the fishing is just as good tomorrow, my buddy wants to catch his first whitefish. Any leftovers, or a tentative date for the next BBQ?
Guest Johnny Bass Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 Excellent report. The Laker was a bonus! And that Barbeque shot? Are you feeding a big family or are you related to Daryl Chronzy?lol
Tarzan's Jane Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 Excellent report...enjoyed the "tennis match"
brickNblock Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 J - E - A - L - O - -U - S EXELLENT DAY and..report Will. Loved the BBQ shot too! hey Bud.... Looking forward to when we get out together once more for sure. I'll be content leaving my boat at home provided were doing balsam again.
Joey Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 Excellent report, what a great day for sure. Now I'm hungry Joey
limeyangler Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 fantistic report...great pics...i love catching whitefish.
ccmtcanada Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 ....and even did a beaver the other day This is a family board Will.... Excellent report!! Looked like a great day to be on the water....and all the food....man...I'm getting more and more hungry each time I see that bbq shot!!
caper Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 Good stuff, looks like a great day on the water...Thanks for sharing
John Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 This is a family board Will.... Excellent report!! Looked like a great day to be on the water....and all the food....man...I'm getting more and more hungry each time I see that bbq shot!! I managed to restrain myself Cliff..........just couldn't leave it alone huh?
Headhunter Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 Oh yah baby! Great report... Sunday is only two days away! HH
fishnsled Posted May 30, 2008 Author Report Posted May 30, 2008 This is a family board Will.... Excellent report!! Looked like a great day to be on the water....and all the food....man...I'm getting more and more hungry each time I see that bbq shot!! I managed to restrain myself Cliff..........just couldn't leave it alone huh? You guys are too much! It certainly would have been cool if it was a greyling Brian. I haven't caught on of those in 20+ years now but we were a little to far south for them. That was however the smallest whitefish I've seen come out of the lake. TbayBoy, There are shrimp in Simcoe, really there are and pigs are well, notice the pork chops on the BBQ?! I wasn't even at the BBQ JB but it certainly looks like a meal that would satisfy Cronzy and he is no relation to myself or Lincoln. Thanks for the replies and hopefully we'll get them on Sunday HH.
johnnyb Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 nice pics...and what a BBQ!!!! Nicely done -- thanks for sharing!
discophish Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 Awesome report! Looks like a great formula to make a tasty tv segment! Didn't you forget the T-bone on the lake .... it was right in front of you. Hehe. Good luck this weekend!
Bly Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 Geeeees! You weren't kidding about the BBQ, what a feast! Congrats on a good day out with a friend! Sooo much better than my Sunday lol
