Opening day in the county..
« on: Jan 01, 2010, 08:14 PM »
Made it out with Jacksmelt today. Was slow, but we did manage a couple of brookies, 1 tougue around 18", a tougue that pushed 6 pounds and a 4 pound salmon.

Nice.  I use to fish that lake opening day...it was super...loved the different species we could catch...and easy access too!
Whenever someone caught a fish...my Uncle David always shouted..."THROW IT BACK TO IT"S MOTHER!!"  I can hear that echoing across the frozen lake now!

Couldn't get there because of slush? 

Truck is fixed, sleds are fixed, and I'm all set for next weekend and know where I'm NOT going.  You and Matt want to hit a lake?
