contact Rockey's Tackle in Orillia, they're the Okuma warranty centre, they'll set you up. They set me up with 2 Aventa top sections last year and they're getting me a top for a Celilo shipped in, 4-6 weeks

Anybody know if there is an organized group of conservationists or fishers against the Line 9 pipeline reversal? That's going to be running a bitumen timebomb over every Lake O trib.

I've found a pile of shotgun shells beside a pool during the salmon run back in the 90's.

a map+regs+MNR stocking list will yield more answers to your question than you'll get here. That's for sure. Brook trout were intentionally wiped out in most of southern Ontario in the early 1900's to be replaced with bass because they thought bass were a superior fish. These were the same times they were using sturgeon to fire the boilers on the lake boats. There's one thing that's consistent about humanity through the changing eras and that is stupidity.

I even use it for a with a live minnow on a set line for pike and walleye. I've got more pics of a 13 and 14 inch Perch I released Friday...they'd put me over my MB limit though.

I always think the 13+ inch Perch must be something else when I'm fighting them. At first I thought maybe a 4 or 5 lb Bass because it was fighting like the one I caught last Friday. The I got it near the hole and saw a flash of gold colour before it took off for another run and I thought "Pickerel!!" then up comes a gigantor Perch. The fillets were as long as the diameter of the plate I put them on.

So I had to go out and get a pic of a big Perch live released so I don't get ragged on for the pic of the huge one I kept. That's as good an excuse as any to go fishin lol oh and to keep my holes open. The one on the ice is a foot long and the other...yup, that's a 15 inch Perch...

I like the Avocet's too, although they don't make em like they used too...I just use old beater regular reels, a reel is a reel and the minature icefishing reels can be too small for heavier line and 100+ FOW with big fish trying to go for huge runs

yes, if you're on the Canadian side you're ok...a Michigan licence would open up more water for you and you then have no worries of straying or from the DHS guys with the zodiac with the .50cal mount. There's also musky lakes in the Wawa area 2 hours north of the Soo, Nipigon is a 6 hour plus drive from the Soo but it's a pretty awesome river, Spanish River at Espanola is well known Muksie territory for a stop on the way up or back south, it flows to the North Channel, I've heard they're in Blind River too...now you guys got me thinkin of thumbin my way to the soo!

right in the St Mary's downtown...trollin off the hotel there, there's a marina too they're in spring and fall and occasionally they're caught off the fishing dock by guys downrigging or flatlining for salmon, ask around at western auto when you're up there, the St Mary's has every species there is in Ontario and I'm sure you're aware it is fishing Mecca

Caught another 13 incher today. It was kill hooked. Fish gulped the lucky spoon. Treb wound up in the bone behind tongue between gills and into the artery I think. lots of blood. Had to cut the line and broke the hook off the treb trying to yank it out at home ...had to drill 3 holes to find the one that produced...just dinks at the other two. Kept 4, cooked em with 2 pickerel fillets from Kahshe the other day. Very delicious and belly is full. Bassr, I definitely think you're fishing too shallow...I'm fishin 25-27 feet of water out from a drop from 12 feet adjacent to a bay.
