Same here Rjohn, 12 years where I live and have many mature walnuts on the property, have never seen as many walnuts, like 5 times a normal year, was the same with apple trees, so loaded the branches were being pulled down to the ground, good for the deer and turkeys.

Looks like the lake will be very rough today. 6 footers from west/southwest at least. Wind moves to north/northwest by midnight then stays offshore and light tomorrow. Plan on heading out of Burwell also. Not sure how long it will take the northerly winds to knock down the waves from today.

They are out...found 24 today in about an hour. So far up to 430 or there abouts. The cooler temps are holding them but the rain brings the slugs out..so get out there and get em ! Heading out tomorrow for a full day....will post after back.

Very interesting video and product. Here is another video by the same guy about Seafoam which I have used in my gas for a few years. (hope that link goes to the video). A friend who has a landscaping company swears by Seafoam as he used to blow an engine every year or so and since using Seafoam...

Heading to inner bay tomorrow to give perch a shot..possibly one last time. Anyone know if they have bait right down by the launch? Thanks in advance.

Yeah am I have a huge hate on for the Gypsies !! Which incidentally I read they will not be referring to as Gypsy Moths anymore....what next !

Although indeed you do require a license to use (turn on a VHF radio), I have spoke with the OPP several times about this while on the water with their response being, "yes you do require a license, however, they would much rather see someone on the water with a VHF radio and no license then not...

Well...yes the companionship is nice whether you get a cent in return. That being said...believe me 50-100 bucks is NOT going to make me any money when you look at the costs involved in owning and operating a boat ! Well maybe if I had a 12 foot tinny but that isn't the case. If I didn't have a...

Ok...question as to what might be appropriate in cost sharing when taking someone out fishing. Lets look at approx. 1.5 hr drive, launch fee, possibly bait and of course gas for boat and vehicle for the day. Some of my friends just had a brief discussion about what is appropriate. Last couple of...

Very well said. People need to keep in mind that this "stay at home order" is for the good of all of us. Where the problem arises is when 2-4 people from different households are fishing together in a boat or driving together in the same vehicle and risking either getting or passing along Covid...

So exactly how many people would have to die before the Charter of Rights should be tossed aside to protect citizens?? This is no different than having a War Measures Act...this is a war against Covid ! There are times when people's Rights need to be tossed aside for the good of all of us ! This...

Not sure what it is that needs fixing with your stove, but I have repaired mine several times over the years. I have ordered parts from Coleman a few years back...would assume you still can. Can also keep an eye on kijiji for anyone selling a used stove..even for parts. They are a pretty simple...

An interesting read from Sandusky newspaper. Some pretty big variations between Ohio and Ontario regarding the sports fishery and commercial fishery...

I remember the milk "man" delivering glass bottles once a week. Often think that might be the way to solve the milk bag problem. Even the waxed milk containers now have a plastic screw lid..that needs to end. It is true though...everything you buy is either in a hard plastic container or a...

When our group go fishing in Quebec we will quite often take a beer or two out in the boat as a refreshment..it is legal to do so there. I doubt very much the boating incidents of drunk boaters is any higher than in Ontario where it is illegal. It is all about being responsible. No law will end...

Unfortunately Ontario is a mess as far as protecting and rehabilitating streams. Neighbouring states like MIchigan and Ohio are far more receptive to protection of streams. I just recently have had a horror show with my township, UTCA and eventually the Federal Dept. of Fisheries and Oceans. A...

I only fished out of Burwell and twice out off the Lighthouse at Long Point, There is no doubt the fishing out of both was nothing it was in 2019 IMO.

Hey thats a great tip Twister, I always pull my plug all summer and when I get home I crank the boat up as high as I can at the front so water runs to the back and I just use a strip of paper towel into a small lil pail..always amazed how much drains that didn't drain on my drive home with plug out.

Thanks for the info. Hopefully they will have some success in netting some minnows.
