cranks bait Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 I have no idea what is going on up there for fishing. However thank you for the post, I need to remember to take my chainsaw. I am heading up to that area for the weekend to fish. Unfortunately I think I may be clearing roadways instead. Darn micro bursts up there make for a lot of work. although it also creates a lot of bass cover on the shore lines too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemo Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 From the Echo Coboconk tornado? Posted By Greg Hoekstra Posted 1 day ago Environment Canada is investigating whether a tornado touched down near Coboconk on Saturday, just south of the border between Haliburton County and the City of Kawartha Lakes. According to reports by the Canadian Press, a visitor to the area snapped photos of a column of cloud extending downward into a tree-lined hillside near Small Shadow Lake. The incident caused no injuries but tore down a swath of trees in its path. The surrounding area was also deluged by 35 millimetres of rain and hail Saturday afternoon. At press time Environment Canada had not confirmed whether the incident was in fact a tornado, though the agency did say there were no other reports of funnel cloud sightings anywhere in the province. Coboconk is located approximately 35 kilometres south of Minden on Highway 35. For an update on the story see tomorrow’s Minden Times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
