    Lake St. Clair Walleye - when?

    I'm not sure about the lilacs scenario this year. The bite is on. I've limited out in previous years in a couple of drifts, so not hot yet, but getting there. Yesterday it took about 8 drifts. We were jigging. I have cousins that have been catching for the last two weeks. My boats not ready yet...

    Off Topic Pleasure Craft License Renewal

    I had to have mine renew by end of Nov. 23. They don't make it easy. Web site says free but every time I tried to log in it was on a third party service web site. Something like when you want to book a motel room and those companies pirate in on a motel sites and makes you think your dealing...

    The best glue I have found is Mitre Bond. It's a glue with an activator. I've done finish trim work for years and it works great. Put glue on one piece, spray activator on the other and hold pieces together for about 5 seconds. No clamping required. Make sure you get the pieces together in the...

    Family favourite launches on Erie (clean toilets etc.)?

    I agree Leamington is one of the best that I've experienced on Erie or Ontario and their washrooms/showers, parking area, launch and grounds are very clean. My wife and I take our boat to Leamington for for the Canada weekend most years as they have a great fireworks display. They also have...

    Off Topic Looking for a full parts motor or some place that salvages/sells outboard parts

    Luken Marina at Lighthouse Cove. They do a lot of salvage work. Might be a little out of the way for you but if they have what you need is it. I've had good results with them over the years when needing parts for different boat motors.

    Fishing Report St Clair Musky Thread

    Was out Friday, launched at Belle River with a friend who wanted to try musky fishing in his boat. I have the tackle so it was a good fit. NE wind and the lake was pretty rough. Some waves pushing three footers. Weeds were bad in close, 10' to 12' of water so worked the 14' to 17'. Had to pull...

    Dum question on salmon trolling reels

    Did a salmon charter off the west coast of Victoria Island a few years back and the captain said that's what pretty much all the charter boats use out there. Wife and I hooked up on 57 coho on a 6 hour tour. The centre pin reels at 1 to 1 ratio are an awesome and fun reel to fight salmon. If I...

    Slush recovery

    I made something similar a few years back. Mine has the eye bolt off centre in the bar so it can be dropped vertically down through the drilled hole, then pull it up so the high side of the bar catches on the underside of the ice, then pull it up tight to wedge under the ice. Wench out machine...

    Who’s got minnows

    If the Bay your fishing is Mitchell's Bay just go to Eric's Bait Stop in W'burg and buy some. For about $7.00 you get 2 or 3 dozen in a scoop at least. If not Mitchell's Bay, then catch your own may be your next best option and if your fishing that day or the next you might not even need to...
