Rod Caster Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 A buddy just texted me "Only one week left on Nipissing". Is anyone else aleady missing winter, fearing spring and dreading another boring summer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 You aren't trying hard enough if summer or spring is boring, lol. Bring on the steelhead, then the residents, then the warm water species, by the time that's all over we are back into steelhead and then icefishing. It never stops!

cheaptackle Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Chad you losing it or something? From what I know of you you're a 365 day per year guy - not chunks here and there! Especially in your area! Buck up there dude, change tackle and have at it! Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nipfisher Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 R.C. I have 3 boats (motors) and a canoe. We'll take a quad trip this year into the deep bush. When I get permission we can hit a few remote lakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookslav Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 (edited) Ya...I'm done LOL! I'd like to get out again, as my first, last and only time on the ice this year came in February and it was S-L-O-W.....to say the least. But I think I'm euker'd.... Bring on the big thaw Edited March 8, 2011 by Cookslav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camillj Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 In a strange sort of way I have to agree ... Hardwater season seems to be the shortest one to me ... really only a month or two of opportunity ... and lucky to get out 2 or three times ... oh well ... One of the things I love about Ontario ... we get FOUR seasons... bring on the chrome !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod Caster Posted March 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 (edited) Merc- Indeed I jest. I was kidding...kind of! JoeyT- back lake trout fishing, defnitly a late season treat! Cheaptackle- I believe there are 365 1/4 days in a year. Irish- Temagami is on my list of re-visits, as long as the weather doesn't turn like last year. It was +20 in late march,2010. NipFisher - Great offer! Yes, we definitly have to do a back-bush adventure this year In some ways it sucks living in a condo... I can't even park a boat. If I could own a little tinny I think I'd be missing winter a little less. Edited March 8, 2011 by Rod Caster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grt1 Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 -31 degrees here this morning, 4 feet of ice on the lake, I sure pity you southern ontario guys who get to put their boats in early. LOL I just wish it would warm up and melt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leecher Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Chad, season close March 31st up here.... still lots of fishing opportunities left compared to last year which we had an early thaw Then it's square tails in late April ps Did you get that pic of the big walleye you caught sent to Geoff??

irishfield Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 I also should clarify.. that is only Lakers that close on the 20th.. other species remain open beyond that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perchslayer666 Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 This year it'll be a late winter, hopefully you can still be on cooks bay ice until early april this year.... Nothing beats late ice Yellows and Crappies... But yea, can't wait for open water pickeral and bass fishin' and really just the feeling of cruisin on the boat on a nice summer's morning.

Depends where in the North you go. Plenty of work in my neck of the woods and we still have about 2 more months of ice fishing to go. Sorry we don't got none of them dumb green fish up here though.

spincast Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Mourning the passing of winter is like mourning the passing of gas... WHAT A RELIEF ITS GONE!!! my sentiments exactly I will gladly mourn the loss of gloves, toques, boots, snow shovels and treacerous roads in exchange for shorts, boats, soft water and swimsuits- you have the black arm band, I'll take sunscreen and a cool ale on the patio relaxing in the warmth of the sun!
