First run of the year and it ran AWESOME

I got the Taiga Dog put away before thinking of getting a picture, it started easy yesterday and it was moved so I could get it out easier and I brought the sled down today and went for a rip back to the park and went thru about 18" of snow to make a few loops and make sure it's ready when the ice is ready to go lol. I lost the cover off of the exhaust port so I'll have to get something to cover it up to direct the exhaust away from where you sit. Hoping to get out around home and head over too Lake Couchiching and Lake Simcoe sometime as well

Screen Scene Video: How to Optimize the Side Imaging on Your Humminbird

Side Imaging can really help you find hidden structure that will hold fish of all species, I have drove around lakes and found cribs, rocks, wood and weeds that I didn't know where there and have caught a lot of fish on them since. Putting the time in will put fish in your boat for years to come.

They Finally FIXED Pro Bass Fishing… (2026 MLF Season Preview)

Sarnia Walleye trip put 2 in the boat in an afternoon

Took a trip for the Walleye in Lake Huron with Randy in his boat and we bumped into Matt from School's Out Fishing Charters and he gave us a few of his top producers to try. We ended up catching 2 and loosing 2 more each, it was pretty windy with some nice rollers coming in and our first time down there in one of our boats. We were happy to be out and learn a bit about drifting in pretty quick water and caught more than some of the guys we talked too but Matt ended up with 24 Walleye for the crew he took out not too bad for an afternoon of fishing. I joined Matt last year to share the day on his boat with another guy that wanted to share the cost and we really enjoyed the day on the water catching over 18 Walleye and we took our limit home. If you're looking to get out to catch some Walleye and learn how he does it checkout Matt's website at: https://www.schoolsoutfishingcharters.ca/

Surprised to see eggs 

Matt's collection for us to try

Another Panfish day with lots of wind

Blade Baits did it's job the other day, but all I could trick into eating were Panfish, lots of Crappie, Perch and a few Pumpkinseeds and the big ones took the day off lol. I took sometime to drive around mapping and looking for schools and trying to find the solo fish hoping they'd be the bigger ones.

The weather is holding on pretty good this year

Tuesday was another beautiful multi species day out in the lake with Smallmouth Bass, lots of Crappie, Perch and Rockbass all caught from 18' to 51' of water, they were even on the bottom in 51' of water. The Smallies came on a Tokyo Rig with an Adrenaline Craw and the rest were all caught on a Blade Baits everything was released to be caught another day.

Cloudy and Sunny with a few good wind gusts

The Smallies are starting to show up at the wintering hole. Blade Baits and Football Head Swammers or Adrenaline Craws normally work when they're set up. We found a few nice schools if Crappie as well but no pictures were taken 8-10" was the biggest caught, hoping to get out a couple more times over the next couple weeks.

Found a few Smallies and a bunch of Crappie

First Smallmouth in the boat 7 minutes after I started on a Football Jig with an Adrenaline Craw and a bunch of schools of Crappie scattered around the lake that were from 10' to 40' of water and everywhere in between. The Blade Bait helped put a few Crappie in the boat, next time I'll try some Crappie Jigs as well. I even marked a bunch of Fish down to 50' of water on the bottom. I might have to checkout what they are the next time out if there is another this year. Sounds like we could get snow Sunday but hopefully it doesn't stay it's way to early for that.
