GAMBLER

Fished Canadice on Saturday. Ice was 8 - 10" and the snow on top sucked. Walked out to 93' of water and set up the tent. Ten minutes into the day, I marked a fish 48' down over 93'. Reeled up to the mark and Bam fish on. After a nice battle, I iced a 7 lb. lake trout. Fished for another 6 hours with very few marks and no other hits. Did see some nice schools of bait go through on the Vex from 40 - 65 down.

Along with bleeding them out, I cut the brownish colored flesh off the back of each filet.

Hey Jim, How about a price? If it is a 340 GTI and the price is right, You mave have a buyer. Let me know.

You guys really think the color of the wire matters? If you run 8' leaders to a flasher and then the leader to the fly, you are 10' + or - from the wire. IMO it does not matter.

If you are running Plainer boards and you see a sailboat (no matter how close), turn the opposite direction it is heading and stay away from it. It will find you and run over you plainerboard in a hurry. Don't ask how I know.

Malin or Mason does not matter as long as it is 7 strand 30 lb.

Jerry you have iot backwards. The lawnmower is bungied to the bike so he does not have to peddle!

PM sent.

Looks more like a deformity to me. You see a lot of stocked trout with deformed dorsal fins from the early stages of life in the hatchery.

From what I have heard, Canadice has been slow and Hemlock has been good at times. I'm heading to Canadice on Saturday to find out for myself.

This is a brand new tourney. Avon Anglers does a good job running their other tournies so it should be good.

Thats funny, he invited me????? Just Kidding Jax.

What did Jax get demoted ?

Thanks Erin. I will check it out.

I'm looking for the Navionics chip for my Lowrance X-15. Here is the code from the site LAKE ONTARIO US849L. I'm looking to find a used chip that is not so expensive.

I tried 15 up to 30 and settled with 30. The big pike would head shake at the hole and break the lighter leader no matter how light I faught them. I landed a lot of pike on 15 and 20 but did not want to lose a big pike. some guys swear by 15 lb but I think they are crazy.

I'm with Rob on this one. I would love to see the Cards win. Cardinals have a great offense but struggle against good defenses. Pittsburg has the Defense and the offense to win the big game.

Looks like your luck changed without someone (I wont mention any names) there. Nice pike Nick.

Bosco, The crappies will hit better towards last ice at night.

Yup.

A 10' Spin Doctor or an 8' Spin Doctor will have a ton of drag. I will stick with the 8" models Sorry raider44 I could not resist!
