Took the little man out to the big lake in Muskoka for some weekend fishing. Had a late start around 9:30am, drilled holes from 31-55fow and settled on 42fow. My buddy had all the luck for the big whitefish, he managed two, he’s still out there I had to go as my son stepped in a hole. I did manage to get into the smelts though, on a simcoe bug tipped with shiner eyeball, ultra ultra light setup. I was schooling the boys on the smelts. Missed a few hits of higher calibre, likely whitefish. Had to leave by 12. Kept a nice feed of smelts for dinner, and one random perch. Despite the incident with the hole, my boy had a great time.

wow----it's not easy being green------with envy!
Was that a Simcoe bug you bought or your own homemade version?
One I bought. Tungsten. Gets down faster.
Did you realize that you can buy tungsten beads if you are keen on making your own version of the bugs?
I considered buying the beads but I’d rather spend the time fishing than crafting, if there still wasn’t good ice I’d need a hobby though. Neptune and Siflies do a good job so I don’t have to.
