tbayboy Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 I'd love to give it a try (never been to quinte before, summer or winter). I'm in Thornhill but can meet up somewhere depending on the ride situations. 3-4am means in Hamilton means I can sleep an extra hour right?

Gerritt Posted February 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 My hope is that we can get 2-3 people that can drive or as many as required to get people there and carpool to help save on expenses involved.... Perhaps one of the Guys out east (Toronto area) will be interested as well and will take a few with him (or Her) as of right now it looks like I have one person in my truck... If not enough people are interested from this area (easier for me) then by all means we will work something out Or Perhaps you could offer to be a driver yourself to help out others in your area?

tbayboy Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 I can offer to drive from the Thornhill area but I only have a 2 seater (potentially 3 if the 3rd is kinda short and doesn't mind be squished into the back). Just let me know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
douG Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 Please remember that 401 Eastbound is still closed near Grafton because they have to replace the highway there. Current delays due to the detour are 3 hours. Westbound, on the way home, is clear, except for the necessary rubbernecking in the same area, mebbee 1 hour additional travel. Tight lines and good luck to Gerritt et al. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brickNblock Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 (edited) Hey Gerritt, If it's less then -10c - I'll be working.....if not, I'd love to join in with you folk. Let me know where you'd be leaving out of Desoronto and approx. time. I live in Quinte West so I dont imagine Ill be picking anyone up, however if anyone from the Stirling or Trenton areas want to hook up as well I'm game. For Huts......Give Sam a call at .....'Cara Outdoors' or......................Ron at.................'Skevy's' both in Belleville, if anyone knows about huts availability it would be them. Im considering putting together Clampetts 'Not a Kite' thingamabob!!!!!!! This sounds like its going to be a blast folks.

Mike the Pike Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 I think Kevin at Merland Park rents ice huts .I have ice fished Deseronto before near the opening of the Napanee River no success.I think there is more fish up around Picton.Best to talk with the local bait shops.Good luck to all on your trip to the BOQ and please be safe.

brickNblock Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 Mike the Pike.........believe Gerrit said his brother has a NO FAIL spot out of Desoronto Gerritt I'll call both the outfitters that I do know this evening and see what they think about where is producing well at this time. Desoronto.......Ive only fished there myself in the spring.....but if Corey knows a place...Im cool with that. I do know that in Trenton at the mouth of the BOQ....there were a good 30 huts there this past weekend only about 1/2 mile off shore. I'll see if I have time to get a pic of the huts after work today....... I ll get back later tonight with the outfitters news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I talked to Sam via PM and he would need to take us out to a few different spots, but he is unavailable because he is do his PAL instructors course... I sent a PM to Skevy as well waiting on a reply from him... Thanks for your help brother! Gerritt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
