smerchly Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 Mr Camoccio's nightmare began on Saturday February 8 when he jokingly patted a security guard at the airport on the back after he was frisked by the officer at the Egyptian airport going home . It cost him five days in jail ! Save your money sir , and keep on fishing !! This story , from the Daily Mail this morning .....the man below was jailed for " assault " ?? These carp guys need to cool their friendly emotions a tad........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice fish Isn't that a gorgeous healthy looking specimen !! Maybe the secret to catching beauties like that is to wear camouflage clothing and face mask .......

No ice on the harbor this year. Wonder how they walleye fishing would be from a boat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Pike Posted February 17, 2020 Report Share Posted February 17, 2020 Way to keep at it, Tyler. Got my biggest carp ever from there. Funny how some winters, guys are out ice-fishing the harbour this time of year...and then you get winters like this one where the harbour is wide open. Your pic makes me want to put on another sweater! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't even break out my hut(s) .... I was also hoping to drop a line down the hatch for carp , but my spot may be "dicey" to tread my 145 lb mass on ....(180 with my boots) But I may try a "spud trip" near shore before ice out . A few cold days ahead might put me out there by Saturday . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I "was' going to go to a good looking spot to carp fish , but it's wide open water ! So I set up one line with 2 hooks , one on bottom , other 10" off bottom ....shrimp , cheese cloth bag with corn , shrimp pieces, oats & chopped bread (on bottom) and baited top hook with a live minnow ( then a mangled minnow for more scent) ...and chummed with the same concoction . I baited my other rod with a live minnow & caught a nice fat perch (released) , then a small pike , also released . ....a couple shots..... my carp rig with the clothes peg on the line for free wind jigging....

Tyler0420 Posted March 2, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2020 Checked out a river spot I’m going to fish this week since my pond is completely frozen over. I usually Catt fish here but there’s carp n suckers around also. Chucked out a can of corn and chickpeas and I’ll be back tomorrow. Hopefully the nice weather this week won’t blow the grand out with all the snow melting. This year I can’t see the major flooding Happening that happens every spring but I could be wrong. Looking forward to fishing this spot a few times this week. PLEASE FISH GODS BE NICE TO ME..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

мормышка Posted March 6, 2020 Report Share Posted March 6, 2020 Ice fishing season has been too much up & down with weather to get into the groove. Hoping for a much more colder 2021. smerchly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smerchly Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 Checking the temps for the first week of March from last year , it was a cold week never reaching zero all week and up to -12C overnight . As they keep telling us , the climate "changes" from year to year ..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler0420 Posted March 7, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 Fished for an hour after work with no luck. The last two years I have pictures of carp from March 25 so the time is coming soon. The lake is still 3/4 frozen. Mike Pike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
