  1. 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
  2. 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.
  3. 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
  4. Coho and lots of chinook mainly,some pools are black with fish at the moment,I am going back this week sometime.
  5. Those in the pic were in Chatuchak market next to some fennec fox.
  6. 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.
  7. Stripping eggs for next weeks bait.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. No mate,lots of black bear in this province,but no grizzly.
  11. 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.
  12. Good day yesterday,banked 11 and lost twice as many,some really acrobatic fish jumping clean out of the water while being reeled in.
  13. WalMart has them on sale at the minute,cheapest is £18 sterling,I just bought a 4 piece travel one.
  14. I have actually been to Ceuta a few times,over a decade ago,always Moroccans trying to get in so they could get the ferry across to Algeciras.
  15. Dusk till dawn mate,your allowed to take 5 a day but I know a guy last week filleted his straight into coolers and took 20,when a single pool has a hundred fish in it doesn’t take long to bag up.
  16. Going to see Les Stroud tonight,three hour show finishes at 11pm,then straight up to Quebec to get on the bank at dawn (fishing is illegal at night) for a weekend of Salmon.
  17. That video doesn’t touch on the fishing section,it was exceptionally busy yesterday,the salmon are running.
  18. Tell them you have a “Past” and don’t want your pic out there,remind them how much trouble a photo in a property advertisement got John Darwin into.
