I’ve finally upgraded my Rapala Ion fishing cleaning knife. I’ve sworn by their performance over many years and their durability to last.
As some of ya’s known that I’ve been at a remote fly in fishing lodge up north filleting many walleye and pike for 2 years and they never let me down.
I’ve...
Went out again this afternoon for a couple of hours and wasn’t disappointed again.
Made 3 moves before we were on them using minnows. It was none stop action with a few throw backs. We came in with 26 keepers and wished we had gotten out there sooner. I reeled in almost a 13” and it made the...
Bob you had to mention about cleaning pike the other day. Well here it is!!!!
Yesterday a friend asked if I could clean a few pike for him and I couldn’t refuse doing it for him.
The boys and myself hit the waters again for more perch. They were hitting good in 7’ of water till we ran out of yesterdays minnows. A quick pull of the anchor and off to Collins to reload more minnows and back to where we were. Very few through backs and a few doubles to be had.
Finally ran...
Went with both of my boys to test out Brandon’s new jack plate on his boat and took some poles with us. We hit the North shore and wasn’t disappointed for a couple of hours fishing. Came in with 19 perch and released Dylan’s little bull head cat. Threw back maybe a dozen.
Last minute decision that Brandon wanted to do the show. Very disappointed in this years show. Only purchased made was for my furry best friend Remi, a camo 4’ dog leash. He will be happy🦮
Had the opportunity to visit the fish hatchery just outside of North Bay with our good friend.
He told us so much info it was hard to remember everything, but I’ll give it a go😂
The hatchery was built in the early 1960’s and is till the same production and no automation at all. From the time...
First ice trip for the season for me this time as my other son stayed home😂. This is will be home for the next 4-5 days and staying out on the ice. Sitting on a good solid 14” of ice
Stay tuned for updated reports to be followed.
My duck season is almost done with only two more days left for me.
Brandon and his friend joined us this morning to hunt from out of the Unit down here this morning.
At one point we had a small flock decoyed really nice and we knocked down 5 of them. After an astonding late season hunt in 4 hrs...
Took advantage of the weather conditions to do some perch fishing and give my shoulder a break from the kick back of the shotgun.
It was a good choice to do some of the perch action on the inner bay in 7’ of water. The bite was on as soon as we dropped anchor and lines in. There was a few throw...
Todays schedule was to hunt this morning and then pull the Wellcraft when we came in. Up at 4:30 am to get a blind in the unit and off we went. After 3.5 hrs and 4 ducks it was time to come.
Pulled the Wellcraft and did a super power wash and I now it looks like new again. Dam that algae builds...
Tough decision to make today. Pike tourny cancelled and to rough out there to do a trip to the outer bay. Second decision was cut very short when my boys got up and they were taking my Jon boat to hunt the Long Point Waterfowlers unit😡. Third option was I might as well do the First Annual Lawn...
It’s been a while for a report from me, but I’ve had some good fishing lately.
Been busy doing a small Reno job here at the cottage and doing road trips for a friend and catching minnows. Two weeks ago done a big road trip to Sussex New Bruinswick to deliver a 300 hp 4 stroke Merc in two days...
The weather forecast for the weekend was way off again. We did our annual one day for smallies on Opening day. Netted only 1 and lost one, that didn’t break my heart.
Sunday it was off the lighthouse for the first trip this year. Got set up near the well head marker and with in 10 mins had one...
Went for a little walk to check on my area that gives back a good supply of morels. Found a nice little cluster of them and that was enough for dinner tonight.
Kinda went out on a limb this time on cooking them. I’m sure everyone has had deep fried mushrooms, so let’s try it this time.
I used...
Brandon and his friends went out to do a little perch fishing and their results were astounding!!! They came in with almost a 2 man limit. They thought they would play it safe and stopped at 95. But on the fish cleaning table the count was 99.
I stayed back to wax and clean the Wellcraft but...
The Campchef smoker did it again, put it on and leave it alone. Couple games of cornhole and a few 🍺🍺. Managed to a little closer to get a few pictures of some Wood Ducks that keep landing here at the cottage
Any NASCAR fans on here for the Daytona 500?
Todays meal deal and race treats will be sautéed duck breasts with a chipotle dip. On the pellet grill there is 2 pork ribs smoking for after the race dinner tonight and a few Busch Lite 🍻🍻🍻
Chase Elliott #9 for the 🏁🏁
It’s been a roller coaster ride since we left home Saturday morning.
Had to plow snow Friday night at midnight till 7:30 am Saturday morning.
We were all packed and loaded to go as soon as I got home.
We had motel reservations made so we just headed to Gilford to fish. The winds were brutally...
