I've always had great luck with AC Shiners. Everything from flatlining for salmon and rainbows in Lake Huron in the spring to using with downriggers to using with lead core. The perch pattern is my go to on lead core in Lake Erie. I have had no problem changing hooks. I usually match the...

Hi all, Thanks for the replies. I ended up calling the MNR support number and they reset it and I printed it. Had to wait on hold for a while but the service was great when they did answer. The problem was that my computer was running the Adobe Acrobat add-on and when I clicked on the print...

Hi. It's an encrypted file so you cannot download it or print to PDF. Once you get your one shot to print, the file is not accessible..

Hi all, First, best of luck to all for a safe and successful fall season. I had a really stupid moment and selected the wrong printer when I was printing my tag. Had one shot at it and whiffed!!! Has anyone had this problem and what did you do to get another chance to print it? Of course I...

I should have also mentioned that I was out with @DCook96 and @Red Hering had a 6-8 sticker for him too! Some bling for both of our boats!

Got out for a midday fish today from Port Stanley. Water conditions were great. Lines in the water at 9:30 and done fishing around 2:00 PM with a two man limit. One five pounder and the rest in the 2 - 3 pound range. Three sheephead and one silver bass. No rainbows but didn't run much in...

Very nice boat! Enjoy!

Thanks for the ideas guys. I think I will need to go visit Jos!

Hi all, Having some trouble with my Lowrance Elite 5. When fishing, I lose the depth and chart intermittently. It will work good for a while and then no reading. When there is no reading, the most recent depth reading flashes and the chart is blank. It keeps scrolling across the screen and...

Fishing out of Goderich one August morning about 10 years ago and we were up on plane heading out and saw something in the water about a half mile out. Turned around for a look and it was an 8 point buck swimming for Michigan! He was pretty tired. We grabbed him by the antlers and dragged him...

Thanks for the info. I hope to get out Friday afternoon. I should mention that we got out this past Saturday afternoon (July 25) - I just didn't get around to posting. Fished 53 ft to 57 feet depth. We went straight out and then headed east (with the wind). Got a limit but had to work for...

Agree with all of the suggestions for bleeding the fish. I think ice is very important for good quality meat - especially when air temperature (and lake temp) is up in July and August. I always keep a bunch of 2 litre orange juice containers full of water in the freezer and use these for...

I ordered mine online Dec 22. Came in the mail today. It took a while but I do like the convenience of being able to order on-line. I had no plans to hunt or fish so I did not bother to print the summary but it would have been sufficient until the card arrives.

We have seen Golden Eagles on gut piles during the shot gun hunt (first week of December) in Perth County in past years. Seems to be when they are migrating through. The Goldens are noticeably bigger. Hard to say from the picture but it could certainly be a Golden. JB

I have been running Penn and Okuma reels - limited problems and low maintenance.
