I am just a guy who uses fishing and playing guitar to keep myself sane...or at least try to.

Whats goin' on...


Whats goin on...
The Dog days of summer...thats what...
But it really won't be long now.
It has been a rather good summer full of family fun.
I never did make that flyfishing trip to the Maitland for Bass...but I still might.


I was watching Bill Spicer fish for smallies on the WFN the other day and it was tuggin at my heart strings.
You have got to MAKE time sometimes....but you also have to pick your spots.
The smallies aren't going anywhere.
My son competed in a Ironkids Triathalon recently and actually did pretty good finishing just above the middle of the pack for his age group. Most of the kids were a bit older and I am sure almost all of them had more experience.
I was very proud of him and he really semed to enjoy it.
Good health has been a common theme this year.
My wife has started running again and one of my closest friends has lost about 40 lbs.


Yesterday I rode my bike to work. It is right around 32 kms round trip...and I was in for midnights.
It was a real test this morning ....I was whipped.
I am a little stiff but it wasn't as bad as I'd thought it would be.
I will definately try it again.
Gerry and I are trying to plan a trip to Erieau.
He and my Brother in Law were there last week and beat up the Steelhead pretty good.
Bastards.


The wind has shut us down and things don't look good for the weekend. It could be our only opportunity and I am pinning my fishy hopes on it.
My luck has been poor fish wise lately....but no sense in wasting it on the summer.
I have been dreaming of Steelhead lately....
WINTER Steelhead....
tick tock...

If you go to Erie and fish Steelies without me I will sh*t in your mouth you POS!
I sense the end of mankind is near...Norland rode his bike to work. Exercise????? Oh dear...

The wind gods are determined to keep me from that fishery.
25 km out of the SW tomorrow.
I would fish it in a canoe but I know Gerry won't.
The trip will probably a short notice gametime decision but you are always invited if you can roll with that MO.
But knowing you ...you'll be out of town masterbating in the woods like the POS that you are.
Lets fish for pinks this fall.
What say you?

lambton said...

I'll fish any andronomous species, anywhere, any time of the year. You know me...I'M IN!

Chinnies are in the Big Man! They are getting early pushes as we speak. We have to do that madness also!

And...Atlantics in the Soo right now! We should slip up there.

The wind shut us down yet again. I was going to slip up to the Maitland for smallmouth with the feathers but it is supposed to be 10,0000 degrees out...
I hate the weather.
I need a day away somewhere.
You call it and I am there....as long as it isn't too much $$$

The dog days are killing me here. I don't have time to go chasing steelies in the Hoosier state. Buddy is out in Michigan trolling the mouth of the Manistee for salmon. Hopefully he has good news and I'll be heading out there next month.

I'm tired of catching those faggy white bass.......

Trotsky said...

Hang in there brotha LUM!
We may take a run to the west side for some Chinny roe in the fall.
You can never have too much.
<><

lambton said...

Mmmmmm Chinny roe...
I can't wait for that circus act to start.
Hey...if you have some quid burning a hole in your pocket pick up some US right now. The exchange is fairly decent and we will most definately be spending time over there really soon.
Whooo haaaa haaaaa haaaaaaaaa.

It won't be long now. They are staging the rivermouths and small pushes have already penetrated the estuaries.

Trotsky said...

Faggots say "quid"...
When have I ever had extra cash lying around????
Methinks you want Mr. T penetrating your estuary you cock smoker

Harv said...

LOL!!!

" I pity da fool.... "

Don't know where this summer went but Sept is just around the corner. We should definitely make an early season Chinny trip to MI!!!
