» OldTimer - 01-05-14:51 -- Not an abundance of words rhyme with fishing....
» MikeH - 01-05-13:49 -- theres a whole bunch of rhymes about east winds and fishing...none of them good.
» MichaelAngelo - 30-04-00:34 -- *tomorrow*
» MichaelAngelo - 30-04-00:34 -- East winds this week, what does that mean for fishing?? Confused
» MichaelAngelo - 30-04-00:32 -- Big Grin
» OldTimer - 29-04-14:06 -- That's okay - look at it this way - we won't see most of them till next April.
» MichaelAngelo - 29-04-02:30 -- Absolute zooooo today for the trout opener Tongue
» MichaelAngelo - 29-04-02:23 -- great stuff dude!
» bettercallsaul - 28-04-18:20 -- Been in a fishing hibernation since exams, but next week is extremely warm so I'm gonna get my fish on!
» MichaelAngelo - 28-04-12:01 -- Bright sun made a big difference in spotting these details.
» MichaelAngelo - 28-04-12:01 -- I strolled by the pond nearest to me. Crystal clear water, pronounced weedbeds, countless pumpkinseed. It's a healthy pond!!!
» MichaelAngelo - 27-04-14:55 -- On a positive note I'm always impressed by how beautiful these small panfish are
» MichaelAngelo - 27-04-14:53 -- caught a local pumpkinseed yesterday and it was deep hooked. I offered it to some people watching. They'll probably be back to fish out the pond Sad
» MichaelAngelo - 23-04-22:41 -- Did you take some pics of the cats? They've stabbed me a few times with their pectoral fin barbs OUCH
» MichaelAngelo - 23-04-22:40 -- Worm on the bottom = bullhead. I guess any meaty thing (ie shrimp) on the bottom = catfish!
» MichaelAngelo - 23-04-22:39 -- hahah those bullheads are EVERYWHERE. In every water body I guarantee.
» MikeH - 23-04-21:13 -- Tried out my new shrimp boilies on the warmer waters of the lower Don, caught CATFISH, lol
» MichaelAngelo - 23-04-14:47 -- toughed it out in Oshawa this morning, only saw one fish though
» MikeH - 22-04-10:08 -- I wanted PVA mesh, but they were sold out.
» MichaelAngelo - 22-04-00:58 -- weedbeds and carp fishing
» MichaelAngelo - 22-04-00:57 -- This is the problem I ran into this evening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iEbJap8h8P8
» MichaelAngelo - 22-04-00:52 -- that's awesome mike! I've been reading up on the use of PVA bags, pretty neat stuff that
» MikeH - 21-04-10:07 -- Yay, 100 PVA bags arrived this morning, no more pack bait, just bag it a cast it!
» MichaelAngelo - 21-04-02:45 -- thank-you everyone for helping get the site to where it is now and where it will be tomorrow!
» MichaelAngelo - 21-04-01:49 -- awesome dude, even if you don't get good fish, it's those helpful guys you run into that're the real gold mine
» bettercallsaul - 20-04-19:42 -- went out for a couple hours to a local creek for the first time, only got chub and a little sucker but I did learn of a few good spots from a guy who fished there for 20 years
» MichaelAngelo - 19-04-22:38 -- LOL it's a shit show isn't it Tongue
» bettercallsaul - 19-04-13:43 -- i had to go there this year to sell a book, how did you ever manage to study in that library?!
» MichaelAngelo - 19-04-13:30 -- oh cool, I graduated from U of T Scarborough last year
» bettercallsaul - 19-04-13:21 -- Uoft Mississauga, you?
» MichaelAngelo - 19-04-12:43 -- bettercallsaul what school do you go to?
» MichaelAngelo - 19-04-12:39 -- MB2 i wish I could find my local river's info like that, haven't found anything for the rouge
» MichaelAngelo - 19-04-12:37 -- good stuff dude!
» bettercallsaul - 19-04-12:01 -- final exam tomorrow, after that its fishing fishing fishing!
» manitoubass2 - 18-04-17:53 -- the temps tell me peak times, feeding periods, spawning periods and the like as well
» manitoubass2 - 18-04-17:53 -- lol oldtimer. Yeah, it helps alot. Before I even leave the house, I can know what to expect and plan accordingly. I also know before i get to the river if it's dingy, clear or washed out
» OldTimer - 18-04-15:30 -- flow not low
» OldTimer - 18-04-15:29 -- Exactly - I rely heavily on internet low and temp data in my fishing of the Grand
» manitoubass2 - 18-04-13:06 -- based on experience, I know when to fish and when not too
» manitoubass2 - 18-04-13:06 -- I can use the temps and flow information to determine patterns for various species
» manitoubass2 - 18-04-12:59 -- here is a link for the one I use. It's from the american side, but it's real time.http://waterdata.usgs.gov/usa/nwis/uv?site_no=05133500
» manitoubass2 - 18-04-12:58 -- do you guys know if the mnr does water testing in the area? There might already be up to date flow levels and temps you can view online
» MichaelAngelo - 18-04-12:39 -- I have a few aquarium thermometers and a temp gun but that would only give me the surface temperature.
» manitoubass2 - 18-04-12:34 -- pretty hard to accurately get the water temps from shore... would give a decent indication though i spose
» prime89 - 18-04-12:00 -- i was wondering the same callsaul...i think a digital thermometer would be fine
» bettercallsaul - 18-04-11:51 -- what would be the best device for taking temp readings? regular old thermometer?
» MichaelAngelo - 18-04-02:56 -- Carp at my spot is hit and miss, going to start taking temperature readings to look for a pattern.
» manitoubass2 - 17-04-23:19 -- we have size limits too Oldtimer. I dont concern myself with them though as I never keep pike for the most part. Aside from a few to pickle every other year
» OldTimer - 17-04-15:55 -- Yeah... but it evens out, the rest of our seasons are shorter, with size limits to boot....... smile...
» manitoubass2 - 17-04-15:07 -- it's open year round for zone 5, so I guess I am lucky! Sorry fellas, never meant to rub it in.
