Re: Fishing in Quebec

Just spoke to the guy who operates a car wash and U-Haul and trailer rental outlet who also sells minnows on Front St. in Aylmer. He was pretty discouraged with the new law coming into effect at the end of the month. Basically told me that his live minnow sales was essentially the difference between...

Re: Fishing in Quebec

I'm sure the ban has been implemented for conservation. All the points mentioned above are valid. I've fished those 2 lakes for years and have noticed a steady decline on the quality of fishing. Look no further than the locals who take their limit return to their cottages throw them in the freezer a...

Re: HT 2017 Ice Tour - Sail Ottawa, Saturday February 11th

Not trying to offend anyone and especially Big Jim. I'm well aware of his approachable personality. But does the poster not say that "door prizes" will be provided by Navionics, Vexilar, and HT. I have attended seminars by local pros in the past and there were "draws" for prizes ...

Re: HT 2017 Ice Tour - Sail Ottawa, Saturday February 11th

Don't count on any door prizes from the mentioned sponsors. I attended the cabelas presentation and there was nothing from HT, Navionics or Vexilar. I think the pros keep them and give them to their friends or something.

Re: Shirleys bay Ice

Was out yesterday from 3pm to 6:30pm about as far out as most vehicles there were a couple full size trucks past my Colorado and I was sitting on about 16" of ice of which from what I could see 10" of clear ice and 6" of snow ice. No action at all for me, time to try live bait.
