Joey Posted November 22, 2010 Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 Paul and I headed down to the BOQ on Thursday afternoon late and arrived around 6:30 p.m. Terry and Lloyd had invited us to dinner, but it was too late by the time we got there so we invited them over to our cabin for a chat. After they left Paul and I met some funny people around the fire and chatted with them the rest of the night. Friday was our best day and the weather was decent. We headed straight past the ferry and Paul got to use the new boards Our fish finder is set on fish, not hook (we prefer it that way), and this looked promising, although too deep for us. We don't fish that deep (kill zone). It sure looked like a good sign with that many fish feeding on a bait ball. Not long after the first line goes off and I reeled in this beauty. Not my PB, but my actual second only fish on BOQ Paul was up next with this nice 11 pounder (obviously not his PB either ) Another line goes off some time later and this one did not fight like a pickerel, which it was not. But it was a half decent pike. First one for me on the BOQ. Ever get the feeling someone is watching you hahahaha. These guys flew by us a few times during the day. That was it for Friday and we headed in so we could meet Terry, Lloyd, Jose and Paul at Gus's Restaurant in Picton. Here is Jose's mouse turd pie We had a group shopping trip at Giant Tiger after that and then the guys gave us a tour of Picton Harbour Inn, which was pretty nice. We watched a wrestling Tapout match and then headed back to Merland's for another night around the fire. We all know what Saturday brought us, which is high winds. Now Paul did manage to get a really nice pike on in this mess, a 12 pounder or more, and as I went to net it, the net malfunctioned and for some reason bonked the pike right in the head, knocking the lure out of its mouth. I hate when nets go bad Saturday night was the G2G at JJ's Smokehouse and it was great. Lloyd tried potstickers for the first time and liked them It was great seeing the guys again and also meeting Team Orangepeel!!!!! Great laughs guys. Sunday was not much better for wind and a very, very slow day for us. I took some random pics in my boredom. This barge has seen better days. We ended up with one perch for Sunday from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. But it was nice to be out on the water and we had a wicked ride back over the crosswaves. Paul's offshore boating experience came in handy and it was a blast This morning we woke up to rain and fog so we decided to head back early instead of fishing for today. We might head back up for a night in the next few weeks. So all in all it was a great G2G, even tho Lloyd stole all our fish Here Lloyd and the boys heading off into the sunset Cheers, Joey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeXXington Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 (edited) Great to see you and Paul again. Always a pleasure. Love the pictures from your camera WOW>> See you at the next G2G. Oh and Terry is really looking forward to have the BOQ G2G trophy.. All he could do was talk about it after he smoked us with his 14lber .. Edited November 23, 2010 by LeXXington Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Posted November 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 (edited) Love the pictures from your camera WOW>> Its funny Paul, I use the two cameras all day long. I leave the zoom on the T2i for the far away shots and then use the old Canon for the closer shots so I dont have to change lenses on the T2i, but some are just fluke. Like the swans. I was fooling around with the zoom on the older canon and was focusing on waves in the distance and the boat was rocking up and down and I see some white things go by so I just snapped the pic and it refocused on the birds instead. I couldn't believe it. Edited November 23, 2010 by Joey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We talked about that too, his 14 lber winning and we will be bringing it to our first meeting with him on Lake Simcoe for ice fishing, we'll even bring bungee cords so he can strap in onto the front of his sled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
