What a busy 3 weeks...Finally got out for a Muskie Hunt


Recommended Posts

Well, it's been one heck of a busy 3 weeks around here between trying to please the Mrs. with a new lawn, perennial garden, a 5 day fishing trip to Temagami, Hydro coming on the property to cut a couple of trees down, clearing the mess that Hydro left, cuttin' and splittin' wood and finally getting the boat cleaned and ready for the river... :stretcher:

 

Here's some of the work that was done around here.... :canadian:

 

The start of the new lawn June14th....

And now for this morning's 1st outing on the river....I kinda figured it was going to be a good morning after this fella came out of nowhere and landed on my hand :D

Hey Steve nice ski, really pretty, looks like the bay is active. When we were out there lst month there wasnt much to get excited about and I usually stay away from it when the water gets warm. Of course if I went ski fishing I would head there. I just had my second surgery in 3 months last Friday so I am itching to get out soon. How did the trip go? Hope the truck held up.

Thanks Jacques....give me a shout if you want to come out one weekend!!....but you'll have to swear that you won't tell your neighbour ANYTHING!!! ;):lol:

 

Great work on and off the water; hope the wife volunteered to cut the grass! :)

 

Thanks backbay....the wife actually did attempt to cut the grass, but it's so fresh it kept sticking to the bottom of the mower and clogged it up..

Thanks Don...the trip wasn't as good as it could have been...the guy I went with had different "visions" of a fishing trip-----> EAT----> DRINK TILL YOU CAN'T TALK OR WALK----->SLEEP :angry::angry: I ended meeting a good gang in another cabin and caught quite a few Lakers with them...

 

The truck is fixed and is working great!!

 

I wasn't in the Bay Don....I found a nice spot a few km's downriver on the Quebec side...you need a GPS as the depths are pretty treacherous for lower units...
