  1. I agree ...... I doubt they will take eggs into November as they don’t like to grow fry to then later kill them. It would be my hope they adopt later egg take strategies as a change in policy.
  2. I miss the pre-coyote era grouse numbers of the 1980’s. Relegated to pheasants released on state land to give quality work for my dogs.
  3. Can you adopt me?
  4. My hope is that they continue pulling eggs from late run November fish. This decade of warm water in tributaries has ruined the salmon runs on most of the south shore frog water locations. I can remember as a teenager fishing Eighteen Mile Creek in early September during the 80's with leaves changing color in the gorge. Late runs in November at least allow for non-lethal trip temps.
  5. Was it bicatch Tuesday up in Toronto Jerry?
  6. Mistake to touch a tree rub or licking branch. Those are scent markers for the rest of the deer herd. Doubt it will be touched again.
  7. If they put pacific salmon in pens on the west coast it would make more sense but Atlantics on the Pacific side flies in the face of all common sense. Of course they will get out at some point .... Any MNR representative that tries to take a stance of native species vs non-native species has lost all credibility.
  8. Stupidity http://wdfw.wa.gov/news/aug2217b/
  9. Hopefully the sewage dumping going on won't ruin the run. I can imagine the jet boat tours running the rapids and doing their 360 degree hard turns that gets everyone soaked will have people with their mouth open screaming for joy......until they taste something strange.
  10. October I usually leave the grunt tube in bag until the last weekend. This time of year they are bachelor'd up and sparring so I use the snort wheeze for bucks and use a fawn bawl for does. Both made with my mouth....you don't need to spend money on additional calls.
  11. 30 lb Berkeley Fireline fused gray color keeps fleas off better than anything.
  12. Walleyes are stocked in Niagara
  13. They (the walleye) heard you were coming with your Gambler rigs and just rolled over and gave up,
  14. Up top. Turn left out of exit then next right in town parking area. Bring a flat shovel to clear crap from launch. Nice new launch but nobody cleans it of debris each morning.
  15. Above and beyond good properly wired and working redundant bilge systems, the next most important item to keep from sinking is a couple of buckets. If you have ever seen the fishing fleet in third world countries you would first feel good about the safety of your own rig. Second, they have a crucifix or cross mounted somewhere. Third, they have buckets.
  16. Speed will kill depth for sure. At 4 mph, I bet a 300 Cu would only make 30-35' of depth. Less drag using torpedo divers on an OR-16 release.
  17. Start off Olcott. Search around in that 150'-250' area. If you are targeting new three year olds you will want some baits down in upper 40 degree water up to the bottom of bait balls showing on your graph. Nothing showing on graph??....,head offshore. Leadcore off boards for steel and find bait for the kings. More of a spoon bite.

    for sale : usa '93 17 ft. Starcraft

    Wow OCD clean rig!
  19. Snap jigging curly grubs and ripping stickbaits for me. I can't sit still enough to watch a do-nothing rig.
  20. Launch for free at Youngstown launch.
  21. Go to the Lake Simcoe fishing forum and you will find a wealth of info. Usually caught thru the ice with a small ice fishing spoon called a Meegs tipped with some bait.
  22. Over on lakeerieunited some of the reports said slower fishing but also expansion into the upper layers with five colors of lead mentioned. Perhaps less condensed into that bottom 10'
  23. Granted the rut hasn't kicked in to swell the neck, but since both pictures are taken in September one year apart rutty body shape is out of the equation. I would say you better shoot him (no duh!) as he looks like he is declining (mild winter too).
  24. I had my traditional missed doe broadside at 20 yards on opening day. Always have to get that out of the way.
  25. X2 on the braid. Wire in saltwater will deteriorate over time.
