[Wed March 27] Ice fishin' for jumbo perch, wtih Casey's/Taj

Some very nice perch there. One day, I will visit Casey's at last ice.

BTW, I was out from Willow on Monday (March 25th). I didn't think there were that many people (absolutely nothing compared with the zoo out of Gilford). I saw about 5 or 6 cars parked on that narrow beach of the access and then another maybe 6-8 vehicles in the park's parking lot. There was a crowd of about 10 or fewer in one spot but other than that, people were not that easy to see. Fishing wasn't stellar - I've had much better.

Nice going James

Nice catch again!

You're the one that's complaining about all the fish you can't even catch the jumbos .
People have been catching all around the lake big jumbos all year. You are starting polls to help lower the limits and to put a silly cap size on the fish. Then your going to Harp on me because I said an area is going to get pumbled and asking why all pressure? 100s of big jumbos are coming out and hundreds of guys fishing 1 area is ok with you? All your prime breeders are coming out by the pail full , a dozen 13 and 14 inchers on the ground with bairly the back meat off enough meat on the ground for a whole meal.

I have fished this area 6 or 7 outta 12 year and have never seen the activity on perch that its had. Mind you I was always there to fish a different species but still never more then a few huts.

Loose lips sinks ships loose lips also kill good fishing holes. This is not a spot I care for as the fish are to big for like liking and I don't like to walk that far for perch. Much closer spots
all over . I'm a big boy I can handle the pressure I simply move on I have had many spots taken over. I have spots on the whitties for 5 years before people clued into where the whitties were ,everyone else though they were dead. . People would walk right past me and laugh and said I was in too shallow. . I have since moved from that place and now can go catch whitties all by my self Kms away from crowd within walking distance. I have seen too many places over the years over worked and over fished. It does nothing good to an area.

By the way I was out Thursday Sunday and wed. Jumbos at all 3 locations all around the lake 13 inches plus all day with out people stuck up my a##.

Now goo try to put a cap on these fish so 45 percent of these fish can be put back. But I guess it doesn't matter to you when everyone joins in on the fun we should just post all the good spots so you and your friends and the rest of the world can catch fish. It's called respect that many don't have with that kind of thinking.

Keep chasing them crowds and catching dinks. I guess not to many people run to your hole when your done. I've had it happen many of time just laugh. I don't even take way points i just go fish.

Ps I tell everyone I had a slow day then they wont drill near me Haha soon as you say the fishing is good they set up shop . Tell them it's slow they move on. I'm young and wise I clued into peoples game long ago, I have even let whitties go by with out getting them just to avoid the neighbors lol. Haha.

I mostly agree with fishfood here.Another one from icey...ok, so you start a poll on lack of jumbos, then move it to limit reductions and more and now you want the world to know every hotspot on Simcoe for jumbos

just what are you smoking



I do not understand your logic whatsoever

Nice catch James. I have a few left in freezer and will finish them this weekend.
Till next year.

The two are very different subjects, one has nothing to do with the other. Yes, i am for the lower limits, and no i am not for the special "entitlement" when it comes to who can fish where. Guess this is hard to grasp for some!.
