Well for the past few years I've been using 4lbs, mono.<br /><br />Most my Ice fishing has been on Tip up's. This year is going to include many hours of performance ice fishing rod Jigging. Stocked up on color larvae jigs. I had seen a couple last year catching 25-30 perch an hour with a double rig format with these baits.<br /><br />I also have never seen anyone fishing with worms in the winter. I guess its obviously because theirs none to dig. However I stocked up before the worm fella closed up about 4 weks ago. So I'm anxious to see what happens this weekend if the ice is thick enough!<br /><br />We've had 1 foot of snow here in Montreal the past couple days with well below freezing overnight temperatures. I hope that the ice is thick enough to get out on LAc Saint Louis.<br />Live bait we'll pick up at either CMS Sports or catch them ourselves..

The one I landed slammed my rod and fought hard, however when we got it in the boat it was hooked in the gill.

Mud covered both his gill's so I guess I got a lucky snag..Poor thing..didn't know what hit em. </div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>I would endorse Mark Currie as a knowledgable guide, fun, down to earth and awesome at getting you into large smallies.

Now do the same on the other side of the fish. Then make a cut up the center of the belly to the vent hole. (fig #1)<br />Place knife into first cut behind the gills and work knife along backbone being careful not to cut through it. Flip the fish and do the same to the other side all the way to the tail.<br />Now lay the fish with the skin still attached, skin side down. Take your sharp fillet knife and go under the rib bones from the top to the bottom, cutting rib bones free. (fig #2)<br />Now on the center line of the fillet, running your finger over it you can feel the straight bones.<br />Take your sharp fillet knife and cut down to the skin on each side of these bones. (fig #3)<br />Now you are ready to take the skin off. Grab your fillet by the tail end. Take your fillet knife and cut to the skin. Then tip your knife between 30-45* angle and pull your fillet toward you in a side to side motion. (fig #4)<br />With the skin removed, the small finger of bones will be hanging from the fillet. Cut loose and discard.<br />This is a simple way to clean a great eating fish.<br />Another quick way to remove the rib bones was shown to me by my good friend Kenny Herman Toftland. Instead of having the skin side down and removing the rib bones the above described way, turn the fish skin side up and press down on the fillet and slide your sharp fillet knife over the top of the bones and slightly down and back.<br />You will find that with practice, you can cut the time it takes to clean perch and walleye by a considerable amount. Nobody I know wants to spend hours cleaning the fish they caught.<br /></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-75740382573857083.post-39211804491340087852008-06-12T17:06:00.000-07:002008-06-12T17:15:18.434-07:00Line Selection: Power Pro<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9AiNrE3nkPTIvYXB0sdMAs68xwSz-UV92PHvkGzFcKaCVegVQi5H4nkEDEX-Y0UcCxO9avbpk9LMx57GGzmSBJKO3gngTH9uk1lfoRgOJm559Pkq6lgD_Vjh-T4_s4bel5wRSME8cbHk/s1600-h/TheurbanfishermanLineofchoice.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5211153011066064866" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9AiNrE3nkPTIvYXB0sdMAs68xwSz-UV92PHvkGzFcKaCVegVQi5H4nkEDEX-Y0UcCxO9avbpk9LMx57GGzmSBJKO3gngTH9uk1lfoRgOJm559Pkq6lgD_Vjh-T4_s4bel5wRSME8cbHk/s320/TheurbanfishermanLineofchoice.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div></div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Line: Light line, mono, braided, carbon?</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>I love the feel, the casting ability and the absolute power of Power Pro: Stuck rarely, land anything that hits that line and when your an Urban Fisherman hoping to land that Dream bass, dream Muskie or huge Walleye; Power pro makes you ready for anything any time and any where: My casting ability is strengthen, the line is clean, little memory and great for getting your boat out of weird places:</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Construction of Braided Lines: Braided lines are exactly what they sound like...strands of fiber forming a regular diagonal pattern down the entire length of the spool. PowerPro is braided using 4 strands, each is composed of scores of exceptionally thin Spectra fibers. While a 3 strand line comes out to be flat, PowerPro comes out square but appears relatively round due to its thin profile. Prior to braiding, each strand is coated and with closer examination you will notice the individual braids. Coating the line gives it a harder and thinner profile that has a number of advantages and disadvantages, and we'll explicate more on these factors during our tests.<br /><br />Real World Tests: For a line that features an extremely fine diameter and enhanced strength, the PowerPro works well in various types of fishing conditions. We put PowerPro through an assortment of freshwater and saltwater tests that really assessed the true muscle of this braided line. </div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-75740382573857083.post-15663640564664317292008-05-29T03:51:00.000-07:002008-12-12T15:05:12.231-08:00The launch of " The Urban Fishermen"<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKBP9wc7EJKNjTueowppeQVR9HhqJiPOX_4zZnKDkuqNsBtbctHsg9lFabgple2GtCK8xOjk_aTx8_ayx8XleTQtY7V8699IsAVFgDkCvmVkboX61mNBl03srKCtunNf-viaEnuXpGpiI/s1600-h/muskie2008.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5205752327088199794" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKBP9wc7EJKNjTueowppeQVR9HhqJiPOX_4zZnKDkuqNsBtbctHsg9lFabgple2GtCK8xOjk_aTx8_ayx8XleTQtY7V8699IsAVFgDkCvmVkboX61mNBl03srKCtunNf-viaEnuXpGpiI/s320/muskie2008.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Well, the fishing season is on and I've already landed my largest fish to date: A very large and fun fighting muskie; What did I catch it on?

If you have the energy to bring things fishing, have a little respect and take what you don't need to leave. Leave the place as it was or even a little better. You safe guarding the future for all by doing this and it take almost no effort.<br /><br />Another issue is Lead weights??? Why use them and give feedback to manufacturers that its not acceptable anymore. It leeches into the water over time, ducks and some fish will eat this in the right situation. I've been using steel bolts, Rock with elastic bands if I'm deadline fishing. How is a bolt or a rock gonna affect me catching fish?? Rarely... So use your head when fishing, think of your children, or your families kids. Just look at where we're at with the stock levels of fish and no that nothing with last forever if we abuse, and neglect this beautiful planet.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-75740382573857083.post-59816249323256227962006-12-03T13:08:00.000-08:002006-12-03T13:18:12.641-08:00Snow has finally startedWell hopefully this will drive water temps down and get those walleye outta the deeper mid lake waters and they come to shore. Watching the weather channel for a few sunny days to give the shoreline a try.<br /><br />I've tried many a fishing batter and seem to like a store bought one the best for fillet. Club house "Golden Dip" Fish fry. Tasty...<br /><br />However an older brand do wonders for shore lunches. Rocky Madsen's "fish Crisp" Roasted Garlic and Butter.

I've seen many men on the water in front of the Douglas Hospital. If you know of a sure thing let me know.<br />However I got lucky last week. WHile fishing in lachine an older man came to see how I was doing on the day.. Lets forget how that day turned out. However he open his trunk and asked me if I wanted to buy his older ice fishing gear cause he was getting close to 80 and couldn't handle the cold. I opened the larger plastic tool box and found $40-50 $$$$ of tackle, a new fillet knife and 10 tip ups.. He wanted $80 I offered $50 and now I'm ready for winter..

I'm originally from central Canada Winnipeg Manitoba to be exact. I've found many places especially in Lasalle and LAchine to catch 3lbs-4lbs Walleye right off the shore line. I'm seen the standard statement that Walleye bite in the early morning and evening just before and after sunset. This year I've landed over 300 walleye with most of my fishing being done during the summer months. They seem to love the fast water and live minnows. However larger 3' swirly tails drive them crazy. White and black produced my best results. I've found many avid fishermen along this shoreline with many years experience.<br /><br /><br />I find it amazing to beable to catch some great eating fishing within minutes of my house.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: verdana;">want know how to find that spot with your eyes?</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: verdana;">Where to get live bait at a good price?</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: verdana;">How to ensure the fish populations is safe?</span><br /><br /><br />Stay tunedUnknownnoreply@blogger.com0
