    X-Rap Shad

    Hmm, where did you find it? It's listed on Rapala's us website but not their international one.

    Durham Region Creeks.

    If anyone is going to be fishing the creeks over the next few days let me know, I'm going to be mixing it up; Bowmanville and Wilmont maybe even down to Ganaraska if I have the time Oshawa as well (though I've never been).

    Proper fish handling?

    Ok, that's two people now that have advocated side to side. Yet out of the hmm, 20 fishing magazines I've read in the last week I've yet to see this they all say gentle forward backward and even then only if the fish isn't responding. If there's a current hold it facing into it and let go when...

    X-Rap Shad

    Has anyone tried the x-rap subwalk? Basically a surface lure for the 1'-2' depth. Ideal for my father in laws area (Pigeon River/Weed central).

    X-Rap Shad

    Hmm, not too bad. I need to basically assemble a tackle box, is BPS the place to do it? I know they've got a great selection but price is an issue too.

    Catfish season

    Hi Bvillefish2; Nice to see other anglers from bowmanville! Are you talking about the mouth/pond at the end of wilmont creek? or have I missed something and you don't mean the port of newcastle but maybe a marina etc? Thanks!

    I would like your feedback on the new site

    I find this forum to be the most friendly and thus informative one out there. I think you've done a great job already but... I agree on the forum logo, we need to get something more specific than the trillium. Once thats done maybe you can look into getting some hats made up with the logo on...

    X-Rap Shad

    What's their price on it normally spinninreel? I'm really really tempted to wait and stock up on fishing tackle the next time I go to visit my brother in Ohio.

    Proper fish handling?

    I've seen a lot of discussion around this, there was a few letters to the editor in the most recent OOoD's critical of the sloppy fish handling of the TV fishing show personalities. I've seen this on other boards as well so: What is the proper way to handle fish? I can't say I know for sure...

    Fishing line

    I'm assuming gagnon's would have floro but I'm hoping Canadian Tire in bowmanville will as well. Thanks for the tip, I'll give it a try with the full spool of braided (tied off and taped) and then 3' or so of floro. I'm so eager to try the new rod and have a couple of ideas for tackling...

    Fishing line

    Hahha, I feel ripped off, no hat for me. MikeyMikey: I didn't see Red, they were pushing the green. I assume that power pro approached them to run it on sale to encourage people to start using it. I don't believe it's a made in no where copy. the packaging is quite intricate and they have...

    keeping awake on the road

    If you really need to cover some ground three or four bran muffins and some strong coffee will give you plenty to worry about, falling asleep will drop to the bottom of your to do list. Maybe I'm a freak but there are few things I love (other than fishing, my wife etc) as much as road trips...

    Which Digital Camera Do You Have ?

    I've got a canon sd700is p&s and my nikon d200 DSLR. If you're looking for a good p&s I'd recommend the canon's similiar to mine, the vibration reduction works great for low light and it's a breeze to use. I waited several years before I found this camera that I was happy with and am well...

    Fishing line

    I was at the gagnon's sale this weekend and picked up two spools of Power pro green (15 +20 #, equiv to 4 and 6). It was suggested that I use monofilament on first and then only put on as much braided as my longest cast plus some extra for tying knots 'because braided gets wind knots'. Anyone...

    New members, Introduce yourselves here! Welcome Wagon Gifts!

    Hi everyone, my names Shaun. Living in Bowmanville now but grew up in Toronto. Spent most of my summers up north around minden (parents cottage) and fished at least every other day until I was about 17. Then work and school (and the teenage not wanting to spend weekends with the family bug)...
