To Slave For Lakers. Report.

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.

Hey dood, thanks for that. Appreciated.....

Lenny and I hope to get into plenty more monsters in the future too.

Did you go through the Narrows??? Were ya chase by any fires?

The coolest thing I got thinking about with the canoers on Slave was when I heard that most travel at night. It made perfect sense. The lake is 99% of the time calmer to dead flat, you're on the water and away from the evening and morning bugs, you've got 24 hours light, and when you're sleeping in your tents on shore you're doing it during the hot part of the day when the lake is kicking up more. Brilliance!!! Hope you had a great time Eli. The area is incredible and I did notice there are tonnes of spots you could pitch a tent.

NO GOOD!!! :lol: April hardly any fishing at all. May hardly anything but fishing. June a little work, week in Moose Factory, some fishing. July... this trip, the Honey-Do list and Nipigon. It never ends. This month I gotta buckle down and pay for it all plus chill with my girls, cause early September is back to fishing. :lol: If not around here much, you can pretty well guess what's going down. :lol:
mb_fishing wrote:Although the fish in your reports are great I love the pictures of the landscapes even more...this really brings life into your reports. (The stromatolites images in this report were amazing!) Would be great if you could share photo details occasionally...shutter speed/aperture etc. as you are truly mastering this aspect.
Thanks... but for the techy camera stuff I really don't pay much attention at all. Really just a point and shoot photographer, pretty well always have the camera on an auto setting unless wanting manual, macro or something else that fits the bill. Last year I did buy my father's Nikon D40 off him, so with this camera I'm getting a whole new kinda awesome out of the photos. EXCEPT... with self-timer shots in close range???
