woodenboater Posted July 29, 2011 Report Posted July 29, 2011 Hey All, Just a lurker absorbing all the talk here since joining last month so figure it's about time to say hi. Been fishing since a kid, well as much as a city kid can do with two parents who worked long days and whose vocabulary didn't include the word 'vacation'. Fished ultralight or fly if tripping in Algonquin but kinda drifted away for a bunch of years but getting back into it last few years. Been hitting the French lately but the fish stock is safe for now lol. Also appeased the prop gods of the French R with two offerings last year Spend pre fishing season in a drysuit paddling whitewater canoe as soon as ice is out. Still love ultralight and regular spinning but plan to concentrate on fishing for pike with fly gear and trying to convince SWMBO that I need a full console 16' boat. Hope to be able offer what I can to the boards if only for entertainment value woddenboater

woodenboater Posted July 29, 2011 Author Report Posted July 29, 2011 Nothin better to fish in than a wooden boat. Welcome thanks everyone and mercman, wooden boats are great until it's time to quickly throw the mooring cover on when rain comes quick and hard the feel and sound of wooden boats/canoes definitely can't be matched however.
Rich Clemens Posted July 29, 2011 Report Posted July 29, 2011 Welcome aboard. Couple French/Pickeral rivers posts going on now. Sounds like you like the fish the same area I do. Hope to hear more from ya from up that way.

asdve23rveavwa Posted July 29, 2011 Report Posted July 29, 2011 Welcome aboard!! Love the old wooden boats, the better half's dad is about 80% of the way through his labour love, restoring an old 18 ft Giesler. Look forward to your input!
