Those of you who have been around the Forum for some years might have noticed I had not posted a report in some time.
I was only out twice last year with little success and at my advanced age of 82, I developed irritable bowel syndrome and I had no desire to be out in the boat if an attack came on. Right now, the IBS seems to be under control, it will be light winds tomorrow, I have no music or square dance commitments and my friend Phil is available to go (I promised my wife I wouldn't go on my own anymore at my age), so we plan to head for Meaford tomorrow--not too early, probably on the water 8:30--9:00. Over the years I've caught just as many fish mid day as very early morning.
We used to fish out of Collingwood, before they imposed the non-resident parking fee of $50. Meaford is much more friendly--$12.00 to launch and park.
I'm still trying to figure out where to fish off Meaford. I have all kinds of waypoints off Collingwood for structure and where I have caught fish in the past. I have none of that for Meaford, but have looked at my GB charts and I have some ideas to explore.
I haven't seen any reports from people fishing Meaford, but if you would care to share info and the general areas to fish, water depths and depths you are catching fish, feel free to send me a PM.
If you will be out there tomorrow, look for the 16ft Legend with the top up and a big green landing net stuck up.

Ralph, it's great to see your name pop up. I wish you the very best day ever and hope to read of your success. Either way it's going to just feel great to be on the water doing what you once loved on a weekly basis. Good for you my friend go get em! and don't forget to bring the sunscreen and water.

Good to see you back in the game again, Ralph. I guess you didn't want to wear Depends for that bowel issue? . It takes some of us old geezers a long while to take our wive's advice! It's good to have a bud along who can grab you by the legs to stop a big chinook from dragging you overboard.
Tight lines---we shall look forward to seeing pix of big fish and bigger grins
