If you're having a problem keeping your skirts on you might be using the wrong spinnerbaits

Check out these ones that are hand made in North Bay Ontario at 
 If these skirts come off it'll be because you caught too many fish not because the sun brakes down the rubber or silicone bands and they break.

Most people that fish with me end up buying a variety of these baits because they really help to load the boat, practice

This is how you get kids hooked on fishing raising Salmon or Trout in their Classroom Hatcheries, Getting Kids Hooked On Fishing

I arrived at the school at 08:30 to get the Chinook Salmon ready to go on a trip to Kincardine to be released and hopefully return in 3 or 4 years to spawn. Each school has an Aquarium set up with a chiller to keep the temperature about 10c or 50f ish, the #Chinook #Salmon eggs arrive at the #SchoolHatchery in November usually. They hatch at the school and absorb their egg sack and come to the swim up stage it's time to start feeding them. They will have to start syphoning the waste food and poop off the bottom and add chemicals to help keep the ammonia and pH levels consistent and the tank healthy. After the bus arrived at Kincardine the Students were able to release 1 Chinook Salmon each into the river then they had a quick snack before a #TroutHatchery tour. We started in the office where the fish mounts are hanging on the walls, there are #Smallmouth #Bass #Walleye not Pickerel lol #LakeTrout a 36lb+ #ChinookSalmon #Musky #BrookTrout #RainbowTrout #BrownTrout #Muskie #esox #Gar and #Pike they saw about 110,000 Rainbow #Trout eggs
that were collected from the #SaugeenRiver fish ladder at #DennysDam and in December the MNRF sent us about 80,000 Brown Trout eggs by courier. After this they walked over to the Lighthouse Museum for a history lesson and a guided tour  before walking back to the Rotary Park to have a Picnic lunch and play on the playground and outside musical instruments before getting on the bus to head back to the school. The weather cooperated to make for a perfect trip.

Chinook Salmon temporary home for taxi ride to get released, water from the School Hatchery Aquarium and a Power box to run a bubbler to make sure they had enough oxygen in the water to keep them healthy on the trip.

Kincardine Trout Hatchery and River Boat Launch

We started out with 110,000 Rainbow #Trout eggs and we keep them for 1 year and stock them into the Saugeen River around Walkerton so they'll imprint and return to the same river to spawn and hopefully give everyone a chance to catch a personnel best down the road, we are always looking for new members and volunteers to help raise the 110,000 #RainbowTrout, 80,000 #BrownTrout and 110,000 #ChinookSalmon we raise in our 2 #Hatcheries to be released into the Lake Huron watershed.

Brown Trout being moved back to the Hatchery

A couple of the #SchoolHatcheries were struggling so I picked up 4 of them and took them back to the Kincardine Trout hatchery to join their cousins to grow until they're release in the fall of 2025 or Spring of 2026, most of the school's will be going on a trip to visit the #Hatchery for a tour as well as the #LightHouse #Museum and some will get a chance to fish before heading back to school.
