whiskywizard Posted February 22, 2012 Report 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!
mercman Posted February 22, 2012 Report Posted February 22, 2012 Welcome WW !!! Any friend of Cliff and Simon, is a friend of mine We like fish porn, so will us up
whiskywizard Posted February 22, 2012 Author Report Posted February 22, 2012 We like fish porn , Cliff and Simon seemed like normal, decent guys, so I'm gonna assume this means pics of the fish we catch... (thanks for the warm welcome. I look forward to a face-to-face handshake)

Joeytier Posted February 22, 2012 Report Posted February 22, 2012 Welcome board. You definitely have one of the best usernames. I wish I would've been as creative...
Pikeslayer Posted February 22, 2012 Report Posted February 22, 2012 (edited) Cliff and Simon seemed like normal, decent guys, Fooled Ya With your handle, you'll fit right in. 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

whiskywizard Posted February 22, 2012 Author Report Posted February 22, 2012 Thanks everybody. Very gracious bunch here! The name Whiskywizard comes from something I love; single malt Scotch whisky. It seems to go well with a warm ice fishing hut too.
Pikeslayer Posted February 22, 2012 Report Posted February 22, 2012 Thanks everybody. Very gracious bunch here! The name Whiskywizard comes from something I love; single malt Scotch whisky. It seems to go well with a warm ice fishing hut too. Highland or lowland?
Roy Posted February 22, 2012 Report Posted February 22, 2012 Welcome aboard WhiskyWizard. You hit paydirt by meeting a couple of our best members.....it's all downhill from here.

pikehunter Posted February 23, 2012 Report Posted February 23, 2012 Welcome! Now tell us, how many whiskey shots does it take to look like your avatar?
whiskywizard Posted February 23, 2012 Author Report 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?
whiskywizard Posted February 23, 2012 Author Report Posted February 23, 2012 Welcome! Now tell us, how many whiskey shots does it take to look like your avatar? Hey! My mother said I was special.
whiskywizard Posted February 23, 2012 Author Report Posted February 23, 2012 i agree Awesome Handle....and just to sum up everything to this point in the thread.... welome aboard and heres your anthem.... cheers Great song. Never heard the Metallica version before . Thanks.
camillj Posted February 23, 2012 Report 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
Joey Posted February 24, 2012 Report Posted February 24, 2012 I have been a hobby nagler for years We LOVE Naglers!!! Especially Hobby ones Welcome aboard!
spincast Posted February 24, 2012 Report 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.
