A couple of close calls.....read up on the history of AECL. My father was part of the cleanup crew in 1958, as part of a military contingent that went in and cleaned up the mess there. Thankfully he is still alive, which is more than I can say for others. And it is only in the last year that the Gov...

Must have been posting when you were Scott. Through thick and thin (GO FLYERS GO), and being from an area that is loaded with Laff's fans and Sens (disgruntled Laff's fans) fans I have learned to be thick skinned on this topic. :lol: Flyers Fans are NOT nice. Broad Street Bullies all the way. :lol: ...

Hello again, Just to answer a couple of more questions for you. wolfe - this is how I will rig up for a set line (see picture) and it seems to have worked for me for Splake, Lakers, Perch, etc. I use fishing rods, but will work with the good old willow branch as well. As for depth, I start out at th...

Hello everyone, Thanks for the feedback, and just wanted to answer a couple of the questions. Prairieboy - Shad, although I was kind of expecting Perch because there seemed to be enough of them in the area I was in. Scott (WLW) - much nicer and cleaner than Muskrat Lake Perch, but you already knew t...

Nice report Superdad,

Can't wait until my next BOQ trip. With the warm weather expected this weekend I may have to venture on down, I'll just have to remember my raincoat. :)

Good Fishing To All

Nicely stated yokes. Everyone is quick to point the finger at AECL, but tell me, why hasn't the media reported that radiation has been found at Petawawa, Pembroke, and other communities upstream of Ottawa and directly downstream from Chalk River. I have fished this portion of the Ottawa for 30+ year...

Hi Wolfe, Like you said, it was a good day to enjoy what Mother Nature gave us, for sure. And judging by the smiles on the faces of everyone, it looks like all of you enjoyed yourselves. Don't worry about the skunk though, as I'm sure 99 % of us have had them, and the other 1 % are lying. :lol: Mica...

Quinte - Jan 31, 2009

Hello Fellow Fish-Hawkers, Made a trip down to Quinte on Saturday and fished the Big Bay area, from sun up to about 5:15 pm. The bites were really pretty steady throughout the day, just the hooksets weren't always there. Seemed at times they would just suck on the minnow and trying to set the hook j...

Hello everyone, Thanks for the feedback. It was a good day to be ice fishing, regardless of how many were caught. The catching part was the bonus. plncrzy, the first three fish were caught between 9:35 am and 10:10 am, in 8 FOW, and the bite slowed down a bit after, but stayed pretty consistent, abo...

Hello Everyone, I have this map of Muskrat Lake, and thought that it might be useful to someone else. It is a foldout map put out by the MNR in 1968, a little outdated, but it gives the depth contours of the lake as well as some information of the lake. I hope they show up clearly enough for you to ...

Splake Fishing - 01/25/2009

Hello Everyone, Took a good hike in the woods Sunday to a Splake lake. Actually, stopped at another trout lake on the way, fished for about and hour, 1 small perch made it to the hole, but not out. Packed up, and carried on to the next lake. Turned out to be a good move as the Splake were hitting pr...

Hey nips, If you have white tube jigs, give them a shot. Tip them with a minnow, and jig. As plncrzy said, work the water column below you, as lakers like to cruise around at different depths in the winter. I've had them swim right below me when fishing over 60 feet of water, so you never know. I wi...

Quinte Fishing Today

Hello everyone, Just thought I would share how my day went down on Quinte today. I fished the area (not really sure, but I think it may be Sherman's Point, where the Electric Cable crosses the bay, near Dew Drop In) from daylight until evening and managed to catch 14 Perch, but no Walleye, just coul...
