local knowledge is placing way too much discretionary power in the officer's hands. who decides what is sufficient local knowledge? a giant paper chart flapping in the wind on your bass boat, without a compass and the ability to read and chart from the compass rose is next to useless. that...

WHAT!!!!I had no idea. congrats man!

are they sure it was a suicide - that giraffe looks like he has something to hide.....

friday fishing was slow from ec10-ec6 great weather caught about 60 took home about 20 - minnows and shrimps working ok

sure its possible the previous owner didn't know but i doubt it. likely a survey would not have spotted it (and i wouldn;t survey a 4500$ boat anyway). even if you had had a sea trial the owner would just put a few litres in to go for a rip. the only way to have noticed this if you can't see the...

i ahven't been out this week, but it was good last week, lots of little guys around EC10, but some biggies thrown in. liked the little minnows. i think you can't fail out there right now. we'll be there tomorrow am weather looks good..

ill take small minnows anyday. a small perch is still going to go after a big minnow, its how they are wired. the amount of throwbacks is remarkable right now, we went almost 40 straight without a keeper. i dont think an extra inch of minnow is going to change the demographics...would be great...

i use this gov site. http://www.weatheroffice.gc.ca/marine/forecast_e.html?mapID=11&siteID=07503 then i get home from fishing and look at 'last 24 hours' and see how accurate it was, and educate myself on what is fishable and what is not. for example, i was on the bay yesterday for 5 hours, the...

wednesday 9-1 pm around ec10 picked up lots of little guys. was never 'crazy' but steady. started off went 40 dinks without a keeper! did get a few biggies one over 14". little minnows from hwy 24 were working well. very generous with the scoops thank you! rain held off til early afternoon. the...

locals may have a better idea but i find it quicker to launch from the st. williams or port rowan area (if that is where you are coming from) - it takes longer to drive the truck around the point than it does to drive the boat out.... for me - port rowan is usually my choice coming off of...

wouldn't be my first choice, though they are there. you're better off out of port maitland at the shoal, or anywhere in longpoint bay or pottohawk. a little vague but the bass at port dover are just there in the numbers they would be anywhere in erie,but much more plentiful at the places i...

i caught WAY more fish before the internet came along. in fact, at 12 years old in a cedar rib canoe i caught piles of fish, all on a 6 foot daiwa spincaster with 3 yr old mono and a cinder block for an anchor. some 40K later im scratching my head...... ill be out friday so if any of you want...

i feel yer pain but disagree with your post. i have also found advice on the forums to be a day late and a dollar short. frustrating to read about boatloads of fish being caught and then i show up and its dry as dust. and i can tell ya ive fished in a pack of boats, watched NO ONE catch a thing...
