Under Ice Currents!

Scarkner and I were fishing ( to be specific I was fishing and he was catching) on Shirley's Bay last night and he had me hypnotized with his underwater camera! Felt like we were searching for the Titanic... But I digress. What shocked me in that underwater view was the amount of current. We were in...

Re: Post a pic of your best/favorite catch of 2016!

Always love looking back. Suprised at how many great moments I had this year when I started looking at the photo album. This year was the start of a beautiful friendship with catfish... Something my fish-hawk friends put me on to and enjoyed by myself and my fishing buddy: image.jpeg Really did not ...

A good start!

I braved the wide open Shirleys Bay this am with wind gusting upwards of 50km. Happy to get out but it was a short stint and I was skunked. Decided that I would get out for the late afternoon/dusk bite since I wanted a fish on my opening day but the wind was not any better, the temperature had dropp...

Re: Shirleys bay Ice

I could not wait any longer so I went out to test the early bite and my repaired arm for the first time. YIKES... Not a bite in 2 hours but the WIND! I was solo and did not use my popup since there was no way I could do it by myself in that weather. Big "snow devils" moving down the bay an...

Hard-Water warriors!

I generally ice fish with a small pop up (or nothing at all if the weather permits) and I tow my stuff out on a sled. Since I intend to start this Friday and having been out of commission for a while, I started my gear prep all at once. Everything from clothes to heat source and don't forget the tac...

Shirley's Bay Fish?

I am ready to start up my season (hopefully Friday) and sounds like there is lot's of safe Ice at SB based on the reports. I assume everyone drilling test holes are occasionally dropping a hook down the hole? :D So how is the bite? Time of day? Species? I am particularly interested in the time of da...

Re: Shirleys bay Ice

Interesting... That looks not half bad! Driving along the parkway yesterday it was almost all open except for a few shore areas had that yellow goo. The BYC web cams were the same.

Re: Who's Excited for Ice Fishing?!!..

I have not been on FH for a bit because I have been really depressed about my lack of fishing the past few months BUT they decided to operate on my shoulder sooner rather than later (last Friday) so my arm left arm is immobilized for four weeks. After that, I start a slow rehab but I think it will w...

Re: Gatineau Sewage Dump

Found the article on Gatinea/Ottawa sewage outflows. It was easy, don't know why I missed it the first time.

The Google map is really good so you can avoid fishing next to a sewer:

Re: Gatineau Sewage Dump

There was a very good online article about Ottawa/Gatineau sewage outflow and treatment few months back including a google map with all the Gatineau untreated outflows and the Ottawa overflow points all indicated. Could not find it to post. Does not discuss the impact of upstream communities and inf...
