Last evening a fishing friend and I went down to try our luck at one of our favourite little runs of "sorta fast" water. This was the first time he had been out since being pretty sick for a couple of months, so the wading was slow and careful. I was using my new 5wt. with #5/6DTF, with my...

Justin; Don't you find that excellent days tend to run in groups of 1 ? :lol: :lol: Two of us olfarts (my buddy just recouping for a bout of surgery) went down to one of the locks last night, fished from shore, and could do no wrong. His reward, I said, for being a brave patient. I had been there th...

Pretty Country up there Firefox; decent fishing also.

Always enjoy reading reports of that area.

Looks like you had a pretty good day.

Chantilly Centenial is a weird lake. It is very DEEP with DEEPER holes. I forget the compass direction to the end of the lake where we used to fish, but it's the end which has the bay next to the "coffer" dam. Across the lake from there is a small island, and shoals run from the island alm...

Badger: Find out where the "South Narrows" are in the lake. I don't think they're on a map but the locals will tell you if you ask nicely. We had good luck trolling the SN with worm harness and rapala just at dusk. The shore line and islands around this part of the lake is crown land and g...

Badger: You connect them two rods together with 5 minute epoxy and you can fish a considerable length from the boat. Add some Eye Tracker planer boards and you can troll without leavin home :lol: :lol: Jokin: Thanks for the info. Going to have to make a trip down a year or so from now when I'm in Ot...

Chief: Send me your address and $5.00 postage and you can have mine. It's a white one, sun hat as opposed to cap. Has the Fish Hawk logo, and a bass thingy I glued to the front. Has been washed so the fish gut stain is pretty much gone. Also the stain where I used it to hold a hot spark plug. If you...

Great report Justin: Was out yesterday morning for a bit in the Kan knew. Managed 4 by 8 AM, then off the water about 8:30.......got HOT. They really liked watermelon lizards yesterday, but you had to bury them in the slop, then twitch........the bait too. Miscalculated on docking, missing "the...

Woops :? Did I forget to mention I'm willing to learn.? Dang. I'm willing to learn. There. :? Guess I hijacked your post then Chris. Sorry. Glad there ain't no cash musky contests. Hopefully, that's the way it'll stay. Musky are hard to catch and easy to kill. If I could find a forum which was just ...

[quote="Ca ar Quote from Jigs "No one has yet proved that contests do anything positive for fish, the water they're held on, or the communities they're held in." Very true Jigs, but has anyone proven that recreational angling does anything positive for fish, the water they're held on,...

Spent some time yesterday on the Clyde with the fly rod. Was able to connect with some small smallmouth and some panners. Didn't find any browns. They were probably sitting there laughing. The fish that hit were serious about it. Barbless is the way to go IMO as those little smallies are pretty deli...

pikeonthefly, ...are bass, walleye, salmon, trout, and pike tourney's ok? or just no muskie tourney's? On a personal level, no. Too many of them are poorly organised, the welfare of the fish coming a very poor second to the financial considerations. This I fear brings the whole concept into disrepu...

My questions were in jest of course Bunk. I knows yer a man of honour.

Good fishin:
