Vanselena Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 Took a trip to the blue zone yesterday, caught 4 species, Chinook, Browns, Rainbow and Lakers. 24 fish in all.
irishfield Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 5 guys on board correct.... Nothing like a good stir post on a Thursday afternoon...
richyb Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 Good you got some for me too. Ive been in need of a good fresh feed of fish.

LeXXington Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 Nice catch, What was the water temps?
Roy Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 Did any live? Oh hell yeah! Five of the fish are AWOL.... I'm sure they were released!
Vanselena Posted October 22, 2009 Author Report Posted October 22, 2009 Oh hell yeah! Five of the fish are AWOL.... I'm sure they were released! Surface temp was 50 degrees While we were cleaning the ones on the floor we kept catching fish. 5 more decided they didn't like the water and were introduced to the filet knife.
Vanselena Posted October 22, 2009 Author Report Posted October 22, 2009 Did any live? We did have a few accidental live releases but you can't filet them all, that's why they call it fishing and not catching I guess.
Pigeontroller Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 A bit gluttonous, don't you think?
Vanselena Posted October 22, 2009 Author Report Posted October 22, 2009 A bit gluttonous, don't you think? Nope, my portion of the fish are now in vacuum sealed packages in the freezer. We'll eat them all winter. Now if someone wasted them then that would be wrong. Sorry but I'm not a veggy.
fishhunter Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 more fish are killed for just eggs this time of year and thrown away so if a guy wants to eat fish good for him!!!If people have a problem with catch and kill why flame a guy that enjoyes eating fish???? Good fishing!!
Guest Johnny Bass Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 Thats a nice variety of species you have there. All nice sized eaters too.Sounds like a great day of fishing. Thanks for sharing.
richyb Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 Ill keep my limit of fish too every now and then. Gotta love a fresh feed ! Did you use the torpedo diver to catch those ?
Greencoachdog Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 Looks like a slaughter on the water!!!... but then again, I always do well on a charter trip too!... I figure, if I'm paying "high-dollar" for this trip... I'm paying for the fish too!!! I only charter fish waters I'm unfamiliar with, like 20 to 40 miles offshore in the Gulf of Mexico... if I were to charter a trip in familiar waters, I would feel ashamed!!! Kind of like hiring a guide to fish waters that you live 2 minutes from... like some members here do!!!
Roy Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 They ARE very nice fish. But the problem is that you can't fish again till you've consumed a few of what you already have. I'm sure you have some good recipes and they'll go fast.
siwash Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 He's within his legal limit... Good catch!

I'm sure you have some good recipes and they'll go fast. That depends if he's in possession of 5 fish... He may have only kept 4 eaten 1 or 2 within days... the other guys may have taken more who knows... you just helped out the big boys for next summer by removing a few smaller fish...
irishfield Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 (edited) He's within his legal limit... LOL... only if he had 4 guys with him, which has not been confirmed for you to make that statement. Although I do suspect that is the case.. and Lake O is a put and take fishery on the species caught. Unfortunate that it was posted in the maner it was simply to stir the pot... otherwise Matt would have started with "4 buddies and I hit the blue zone today"... Edited October 23, 2009 by irishfield
Greencoachdog Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 (edited) But the problem is that you can't fish again till you've consumed a few of what you already have. So he can't go Walleye, Pike, Perch, Crappie, Bass... etc etc etc fishing... until he's eaten the Salmonoids??? Edited October 23, 2009 by GCD
figureight Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 Enjoy those lake ontario lakers. mmmmm
Slop Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 Good shootin' in the blue zone man, enjoy the harvest.
Vanselena Posted October 23, 2009 Author Report Posted October 23, 2009 (edited) He's within his legal limit... Good catch! Swordfish, there are always going to be those that sit at their computer wanting to stir the pot or perhaps try and read into things and then stir the pot (not talking about Swordfish) . Maybe they just need to get out and fish and spend less time on the computer. In regards to post about limits in the freezer, it is true that you can only keep your limit of a species that was caught in the province or state you reside in. In this case the fish were caught in another country whereby the lake has no part connecting to Ontario so I am pretty sure Ontario limits do not apply. That being said I don't plan on fishing salmon or trout until next spring and it is highly likely my freezer will be void of fish by that time. Fishing in a foreign country, as well as being morally wrong, you would have to be really really stupid to keep or even think of keeping in excess of your legal limit.

Hey Richyb, ya we were using torpedo's but we were also using other tools to create the right group dynamic in our spread. The key to successful fishing is to create a spread that causes the fish to come looking for you instead of you looking for the fish and then give the fish natural offerings, the Torpedo Divers give the opportunity for the natural offerings. As one friend said, " the fish are congregating and following our spread"
