Welcome Tom!
I too hail from the land of ice and snow.  I miss the Walleye opener.  Of course we have Marlin and Tuna here in HI.

Welcome Tom --

Lots to learn around here.

Love that Northern Lake country.

Fished a few times in Southwestern Ontario.

Always came up through Minnesota via Lake of the Woods -- then cross at International Falls -- on up to Kenora, where we would fly off on floats up to Namego Lake for a week at a time at a remote old trappers cabin.  Fished for Lakers mostly.  All you could catch -- but we would only keep enough for fresh meals everyday.  Thousands of lakes -- many fairly large and not even named.  Amazing country.

We would bring in our gear, groceries, and a couple of serviced motors for the old aluminum boats we had stashed up against the trees.

Ice was off a few weeks ago.

Best,

The first rule of fishing is to fish where the fish are. The second rule of fishing is to never forget the first rule.

Welcome
Our opener was a couple of weeks back. A day and a little more lake fishing in the book.
There is nothing like lying flat on your back on the deck, alone except for the helmsman aft at the wheel, silence except for the lapping of the sea against the side of the ship. At that time you can be equal to Ulysses and brother to him.
