Paulus Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 I recently got a chance to fish with Solopaddler and Drifter16 who was visiting our part of the country, to take in the “summer”-like coniditions (those NWT guys are used to some pretty cold temps!) . Our target were some Georgian Bay tributaries that had had a recent dose of rain. The EPIC CHROME SLAUGHTER that we expected never really materialized, but there were definitely enough fish around to make a decent go of it. The motherlode was definitely out there, but we never lucked into it. All fish were bright, energetic and a little on the small side (from a Lake Ontario steelhead perspective), and, although we didn’t get quite the quantity we expected, we got into them fairly consistently throughout the day. As usual, laughs and chortles were pretty much non-stop throughout the day, so we did get the motherlode as far as that’s concerned, and that’s usually the whole point anyway. If you can’t enjoy yourself, you won’t have a good day – no matter how many fish you drag to the bank! I’ve included a lot of doubles, hopefully for your viewing pleasure . p.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRIFTER_016 Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 Yeah it was nice to get out. Would have been better under different circumstances though. It's riding the sled and drilling holes from here on out for me now though. 1st ice fishing trip of the year is planned for this weekend. It was good to see you guys again. Take it easy and poke some chromers for me will ya? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't just "buy" a DeMarco. You place an order with Adam then unless you're very lucky, wait very patiently 'till your reel arrives. Sometimes the wait can be long.

I don't think he's ever held onto one for too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
