How did it go? It was sure windy as hell on Simcoe

 

It was a bummer. I was all set to go and thought I'd give the engine a start just to be sure and not give myself a surprise once I hit water. Lesson learned from a previous time. It started beautifully, let it run for 2 minutes BUT then she won't turn off. I even pulled the key out, she won't turn off. I yanked the wires from the batteries but she won't turn off. I finally had to cut off the gas supply and even then the engine took a good 3 minutes before dying out.

 

No idea what the hell happened to her. Tried again but same thing Am thinking its the ignition switch or some wiring has gone loose.

 

So I mowed the lawn, watered the plants, cleaned the shed, thinking I'd save the day by hitting a creek nearby for some evening dry fly action but only to have the freaking monsoon pour down on me.

 

So in the end I gave up, cooked some dinner and just finished watching the movie "the help"

 

Lol

 

There is my Friday report.

And thx for asking

Thought I close this thread. Rice lake was pretty good fishing, especially after 8pm. I had always heard about the fishing getting turned on at the flick of a switch. And that's precisely what happened on Rice Lake especially around the islands. They came to the surface and were splashing left and and right. I never knew walleyes fought so hard. In the summer time, they seem lazy and don't wanna fight. But this day, there were fighting hard. Loads of fun. Here is a small clip.

Good for you. Other than they are fish I thought you were describing me in the summer.
