Thanks again everyone!

I'll be sure to take him to a couple of these spots over the next weeks.

Thanks Dano and bucketmouth!

I'll check out Petrie island for sure and the Winterlude sounds like a great social event my son can enjoy.

I haven't been ice fishing in years but thought I would introduce my son to it and maybe make it a regular thing. I'm looking for a spot to fish for crappie and perch that is accessible by walking since I don't have a skidoo. I live in Richmond and don't mind traveling a little. I have the following...

black dots or white dots are common. I eat them all the same.
You can pick them out with the fillet knife tip if they bother you.

I'll definitely be heading up this weekend then looking for smaller ones to keep. I'll post my impression of Port Hope.

Are they good eating?

RJ was saying they are half dead, which doesn't bother me if they still taste good. I was thinking of heading down to Port Hope myself and give it a try.

It is not mercury! it is a worms/parasite.

Just cook your fish and you'll be fine. You can pick them with the tip of your fillet knife if you have them time but I don't bother. I've seen this since I was a child across Quebec and Ontario.

I wish I could find a lake that would produce so many nice fish. Even though I've never caught a LMB over 3 pounds in my life, I would let everyone of those fish go without hesitation. I've never eaten Bass and to me they are just a catch and release fish. However, I have heard they are quite tasty...

We can't presume to know these people and their needs. We all have hunting licences (for fish) and probably small game and deer too. We need to remember we are hunters and catch and release is a very new phenomenon. My grandfather's never released anything, if they caught it we were eating it. If I ...

Thanks CN and Seabass81 for your suggestions. I'll check them out when I'm in the area.

Thanks Bennetts,

I will be visiting your store this week and look forward to seeing what else you have.

I am looking for a local source for hitchhiker trailers. They are small corkscrews that snap onto hooks to hold baits in place. They are the same thing that comes with some widegap 5pack hooks but without hooks and in 24 packs. I am unable to find them online from Canadian sources and I prefer buyin...

Spence Scout, You posted in a public forum asking for advice so that is what you received. I am just saying all the talk about reporting people is not the way men should deal with problems. There are all kinds of bad things people do, we all know this, but you can't change it by getting upset and de...

Instead of recording his plates and reporting him based on an assumption which you can't prove, why didn't you confront him face to face? What's the worst that could have happened, "Mind yer business!". People who report others should be accountable for their actions and have consequences ...

You could get one of those pendulum sights.

Trail Cams are a much better investment. You can practice to be a better shot but you can't spend all day everyday looking for deer.
