Gentleman, and Ladies of course... :D Haven't been out at all this year and am going to play hooky for sure next week...my usual spot is Long Island and was wondering about the bite? Oh ya, also if there is too much snow on the river because if there is....it will be the fish market for me! :lol: Se...

Better than being at work!

Hey Thanks, was trying to get out today but wifey got in late from shopping...tomorrow i will be there....

If my better half shows up soon from shopping, I may join you...first time out so far...

Glad to hear the ice is safe....how big were the Perch? Anything to speak of?

Hey folks just wondering if anyone has ventured out to the locks, what's the action out there and how thick is the ice? Wishing all of you a very Merry Christmas and peace, love and prosperity in the New Year. Stay safe and stay warm.

Beautiful deer, if you still have the rack, I know someone who does nice work on antlers....beautiful mounts!

And the best part about surf fishing is you can bring your wife and she can catch some rays while you do your thing....

P. S. I forgot to tell you, a outgoing tide is the best time to fish, it brings in the BIG ONES wanting to eat all the little fellas...

Try surf fishing with some shrimp off a double drop leader with a #2 pyramid sinker at the end and some circle hooks (can't remember the size but your standard size). Hook on a half cut piece of shrimp on both hooks and whip it out as far as you can.....bring in your line slack with a bit of tension...

Pretty much the same along the St. Lawrence I heard....damn messy as well...

Fished the locks this afternoon in Manotick....what a mess walking onto the ice, there was about 8 inches of slush/water below the 10-15 cm of snow! The perch were non existent and the pike were no where to be found.....anyone having better luck than me? If so, where? I can use the help....lol

Thanks guys....the smelts held up today but the fish were on holidays...no bites....not even a nibble....I was at the locks at Long Island and no one was getting anything at all.....oh well, it's better than working!!

Hi Folks, would anyone know if using headless smelt for Pike works under a tip up?

Apparently the cage he had was too big (the holes) so he put one of his wife's pantyhose over it....no joke....this guy is a regular MaGuyver

Believe it or not, my buddy keeps them in a small cage in his sump hole....he adjusts the float on the pump and they stay alive for weeks....seriously!!
