whiskywizard Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 Hello folks, I should introduce myself... I recently moved onto Sturgeon Lake (the southern Ontario one). I have been a hobby nagler for years, fished when on vacation, and a few bass tourneys. Now that I live on the lake I will be getting more serious about it. I enjoy fishing for just about any species, but I think walleye and smallies are my favourite, followed by perch. My wife and I have started exploring Sturgeon's hard waters by ATV, and I'm anxiously awaiting ice-out so I can get the boat in the water. This past weekend we had the pleasure of meeting Big Cliff and Pikeslayer. Nice guys; they welcomed us to the area and offered up some good advice to help keep us safe on the quads. Thanks guys!

Welcome aboard Whiskey BTW, sorry to tell you that there's no fish in Sturgeon. Zero, nada, zippo. Nice sunsets though. We were just drilling through the ice to harvest some greens to go with the frozen fish dinner. Edited February 22, 2012 by pikeslayer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whiskywizard Posted February 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 Thanks everybody. Very gracious bunch here!

whiskywizard Posted February 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 Highland or lowland? They're all good. And everybody knows that good whisky cures all illnesses. Of the Highlands, hard to pick a favourite. Highland Park is one. Also Glen Rothes. Of the Islays, my favourite might be Laphroiag. Maybe Ardbeg 21 year old. Or maybe Bunnahabhain. Of the Lowlands, it's definitely Rosebank. I can't be the only guy here who like whisky, can I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camillj Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 (edited) Welcome aboard ... and no you are definitely not the only one .. in fact I am savouring my "daily medication" even as I type this .... Bell's is my 5 O'clock special nothing fancy but does the trick ... and I will confess that I do have a particular fondness of The Glen Livet ... especially once it is at least old enough to vote Edited February 23, 2012 by camillj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spincast Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 Welcome aboard - naglers who appreciate single malts are a fine breed. Of course, if you were a real wizard, you would be able to make it appear, as well as disappear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
