Too sick to get out on the ice this weekend :( OLD PICS

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Too sick to get out on the ice this weekend :( OLD PICS

Post by DalhousieLakeTom »

Yeah, I'm way too sick to hit the Rideau so the crappies are safe for the time being. :cry:
I dug out some old fishing pics and scanned them and they gave me good laugh. :lol:


My best crappie to date: Winter 1994. 15" slab.

Dalhousie Lake Largemouths caught during B.A.S.S. Ottawa chapter tournament. We finished 5th.

My brother with a beauty Largemouth from the family cottage on Dalhousie Lake:

My uncle John with an absolutely dynamite Lake Trout from Redhorse Lake. I video taped this one being caught for him. We caught a pile of Lakers that day.

The old faithful ice shack on Lower Rideau Lake.
1995. There was maybe 20 of us that had shacks out then and took the time to catch crappies through the ice. It is like a small village out there now. Last count was well over 75 shacks and trailers out there.

Typical early spring walleyes from in front of the family cottage on Dalhousie Lake.

AWESOME time machine!!!

The fish were sublime... but I have to admit... me and my weird brain... what caught my eye was a headline on that newspaper;

Image

Hmmm... flip... zoom... and... isolate...

"Mario Reaches 600 Goal Mark"

I remember that game. Empty net against the Canucks.

Tuesday February 4, 1997 (Had to check for the exact date!)

Thanks for the memory blast!

Get better and make some more time capsules!!!!

... now if I could just figure out who the Aero's captain was that season, I'll be able to sleep tonight!!!

LOL We can't get anything past you Craig. It's like a CSI episode when you see our photos!

Mario was the best. The Athens Aeros could have used him that year too :lol:
