ibian 0 Report post Posted October 5, 2009 Ibian anything yet? just wondering never sent anything to Canada befor not sure how long it should take.. Nothing yet but they are coming a long way. Also if there really nice my postman is probably fishing them first before he delivers them. It's only happened a couple of times but I'm sure they will show up.

pickapeckof 0 Report post Posted October 6, 2009 Mine are sent Lots of wind and rain, only got one day on nipigon,the only day it did not rain but to much wind pushed us to go up a river, got lots of white fish. I like fishing the white fish there 25--28 inch good fighting fish. Found a nice lake [ North wind ] had good fish in that, if day was better it has lots of potential.

BassBugn 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2009 Ian, I'm happy they arrived & you liked them. How did you like the little one? I hooked around a 35" to 40" Tiger Muskie on a fly just like it. I say hooked not landed. I managed to bring this fish close to the boat but as soon as he saw the boat he took off. I think he is still going. I was fishing for crappies with 4lb test on a 6wt. Needless to say he broke off. I'm not sure who was playing who!!!!????? Look forward to seeing everyones flies. Thanks for hosting. Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No need to panic yet, depending on the border it could take upto 3 weeks to get here. I'll keep you posted. Ian ---------------- Steve, The little one is really cool :headbang: , I was thinking that would be great for crappies. I might get the boat out on the weekend to give it a shot.
