  1. Little clip,I am going to record/edit the trip,might take my drone (weight consideration).
  2. It’s not even a channel mate in reality,just a couple of fishing clips,I have a Go-pro here,I might link it to my phone as I am going up near Lake Huron this coming week to fish a salmon run,would be good to get proper footage of the fish underwater,I saw footage a guy made using his underwater fishing drone and it was really impressive.Here’s Mr Stroud playing harmonica for the going fishing song.
  3. I think we are both fully aware I get out into the wilderness,I just started putting clips up on YouTube as you always said I claimed to do this and that,I have loads on a laptop I will upload when I get back to UK taken in India,Nepal,Bhutan,Thailand etc.I have a very open mind,you need to let the grudge go against those who disbelieve in Dorset leopards etc,when there’s proof of a breeding population of leopard in the UK I will humbly apologise and……
  4. Keep on keeping on Shaaark,we are the sun total of our experiences,they are the brickwork of who and what we are,the clock doesn’t go back,only forward,stay safe.
  5. Not boring at all,I find people fascinating I really do,did you have brain injuries?
  6. It harmed me in hindsight,I had my hair grabbed on a few occasions and my head banged off walls and desks,had my nose burst from a teacher backhanding me,taws across the face,cane etc,if anyone had tried that on one of my kids it wouldn’t have ended well.Best thing about school was the free school meals.The teacher who backhanded me was convicted of molesting several young boys at the school so I guess I got off lightly.I hate authority now in adult life.
  7. Just trying to eat a little healthier,your about my age?We gotta take care of our health as best we can,never smoked nor drank,don’t eat much fried food nowadays,I do a daily decent walk and feel energetic and relaxed so carrots and tomato it is on the morrow with maybe an avocado.
  8. I waited for your comment Greyman,I knew it would come,one thing though old chap,I need permission from no one to do anything in my life,trust me on that,I have total freedom,I really do,I go where I want,when I want at the drop of a hat and no one steers my thought patterns. ok Bigfoot,you know he has never actually seen one don’t you?I asked him during the Q&A and would have questioned him further when he was mingling as the show ended but I travelled overnight to Quebec for the salmon run and needed to get off. he has had rocks thrown,heard whoops,”felt”things,but never actual
  9. Strawberry and banana smoothie for breakfast,just gave a neighbour a side of fresh salmon so he is bringing me a bag of fresh carrots and tomato later,Carrot and tomato smoothie for breakfast tomorrow.
  10. Got tickets for myself and my youngest kid to see Les Stroud AKA SURVIVORMAN last Friday,got to rate the show as better than sir Ranulph Feinnes it was such a feel good evening. it was in an old honky-tonk jive club in Ottawa,at first I thought we were at the wrong place as it only had a maximum capacity of maybe at most 100? Stroud told of his beginnings knowing he didn’t quite fit in during his childhood,he was different,he wanted to go walkabout,stretch his legs.He got a job as a canoe-guide in northern Ontario,met his wife Sue and they disappeared into the wilderness together for
  11. Coho and lots of chinook mainly,some pools are black with fish at the moment,I am going back this week sometime.
  12. Those in the pic were in Chatuchak market next to some fennec fox.
  13. Do it with two mates as a really cheap fishing holiday with LOTS of fresh run fish,thousands in truth.Non-resident 8 day Ontario sports fishing licence is £34’ish quid?Theres a Bass-pro maybe two’ish hours away?I have seen lots of women fishing also.
  14. Stripping eggs for next weeks bait.
  15. I travelled 9 hours Friday night/Saturday morning to fish,we have a place in Ottawa,but next year I am thinking of getting an air B’n’B within a few miles of a decent river peak run,drop me a PM if your going to book a flight,I can give you the name of a small town in Ontario with a $50 a night motel walking distance from a river where the numbers of fish will blow your mind,I found an Air B’n’B near there for next season for me and my sons,the fishing is as guaranteed as any fishing can be.
  16. Fished a different place last week,three days,had maybe 40 fish in total,lost loads,someone told me a fish ladder had recorded 9000 fish through over a weekend.
  17. No mate,lots of black bear in this province,but no grizzly.
  18. Good day fishing yesterday,ended up banking 11 fish,had my 5 limit fish on a stringer when a Japanese guy came along,he must have thought they were resting in the edge because he deliberately snagged one with a treble????Might be going fishing next weekend and got an invite for trout in Nova Scotia,tight lines.
  19. Good day yesterday,banked 11 and lost twice as many,some really acrobatic fish jumping clean out of the water while being reeled in.
