Guest Brian Laketrout Cuthbertson Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 Awoke at 06:00 Dewatered and delogged Buddy. Off to Tims and gas for the boat. Launched at PD at 06:30. Once around the harbour Trolling,and out onto L.Ontario and the Canal,with a pass or 2 where those Big Brown Trout are. Nothing, and the Canal was disappointing also. The NE wind yesterday really stired up the shoreline. I was hoping to get up to Gate one in the Canal but she was mud! Half a mile out she was still mud,came back and trolled the mouth of 12 mile for awhile and packed it in! I was home by 10:15. 3 boats were drifting the harbour when I left. I'll be glad when I can get back out 4-5 times a week (winter fishing) couldn't sleep last night, to excited I guess. Both motors started right up,they haven't be running in a month! Maybe I'll change the plugs after 600 miles in the future, really noticed a difference from the old ones that had 900 miles! I tried a Reef Runner off of my inline planner board. I also used one Down Rigger with a Williams and Minnow combo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest IBC Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 they were draining a section of the canal earlier this week (before the flightlocks section). so i imagine that could be the reason for the mud, there will be much less current coming out of that area though just to note.

Guest Brian Laketrout Cuthbertson Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 IBC I saw that it was drained at the GM plant last week, I guess thats Lock 4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lakeshore Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Too bad about the poor weather and the water conditions. Still is better than teaching...... Hopefully the weather will stabilize. Good luck in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chilli Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Well your welcome back Brian. Sorry to hear it won't be long. You really didn't look good that day I saw you in Port. You looked a heck of alot better when I saw you at Fishinniagara though. I thought I was going to have to try my luck in Port between elbows so I could bring you a laketrout. If you dissapear again and you hear a knock at the door, make sure you get up before that fish in your mailbox attracts the kitty's. Wow I didn't know that. I hate cats so I guess I gotta go now!

ROB MCINTOSH Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 To add to that report on the canal I heard they are noy draining lock 1 above the lock Portweller has 2 ships tied on the wall so you would think most of the mud would settle up there before comming over the spill Just my 2 cents Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Brian Laketrout Cuthbertson Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 LMAO Outstanding stuff Chilli,but I don't eat fish! How many cats did you kill this AM Please keep us up dated I try to make it down to fishinniagara about once a week,if I can't fish,I can still buy Rob the mud I encountered I believe was from that NE wind we had! I was hoping to get up to Lock one I was up there last March and marked alot of fish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lakeshore Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 OH MY GOD THAT LAST CAPTION WAS HILARIOUS I hate cats, so I guess my life is finally with meaning. Who knows how many millions of kittens I killed during my high school years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
