Aug 21 2013-Koilos,Beast of Baxter Island

 Koilos, The Beast of Baxter Island! 

 14 feet tall and weighs just under 2000 lb. Rather big wouldn't you say?

 This metal sculpture sat in front of the Distillery District in Toronto since 2009.

 It was purchased in 2013 by a cottage owner and moved to Baxter Island.

Sorry, no fish pictures. We got Skunked!

Aug 19 2013-Another Annual Fishing Trip

 We just finished having Tegan out on her annual fishing trip, and now it's time to take Rick and his grandsons for their annual trip. Michael and Christopher sure have grown over the years!

 Michael lands the first fish. A cute little Bass.

Michael lands a small Pike.

Although the fishing was slow, we still had a great time. Hopefully, they will be back next year!

July 30 2013-Tegan's Annual Fishing Trip-Part 1

 It's that time of the year again. Tegan's annual fishing trip with Joanne and myself. It's great to have Corey with us this year!

 On our way for a picnic lunch and a swim, I started the day off with a cute little Bass. Do I have to touch it?

 A deer watching us go by. Everybody wave at the Deer!

 After lunch, it's time for a swim!

Loading up the boat. Now it's time for some reel fishing!

July 30 2013-Tegan's Annual Fishing Trip-Part 2

 After a picnic lunch and a swim, it's time to get down to some serious fishing! This 26" Pike was caught by Joanne and reeled in by Tegan.

 This nice looking Bass was again caught by Joanne and reeled in by Corey. Nice fish guys!

This 28" Pike was another combo catch. Caught by Joanne and reeled in by Tegan.

Corey has landed the biggest Perch of the day!

The last fish of the day was another combo catch. I caught this 31" Pike and Tegan helped with the landing. What a great day and a lot of fish!

July 24 2013-A Very Windy Day

 It was a very windy day, but we decided to go out and fish for a couple of hours. First fish was pretty small! 

Second fish of the day was a little bigger!

It was so windy that Joanne decided to pack up her rod and read for a while.

While Joanne was reading, I caught this really big Smallmouth Bass!

This fellow measured 19 3/4" long and weighed 4 lb 4 oz. Biggest Bass of the year! Time to go home and get out of the wind!

July 16 2013-Another Hot One!

 We started the day off with an average size Bass.

 Then Joanne caught an average size Perch.

 And another average size Bass.

 Had a visit from the Marine OPP. Everything was good!

Even out on the lake it was a hot one. So we headed home to try and stay cool! 

July 13 2013- Evening Fishing

 We decided to go out for an evening of fishing. Joanne started off with a very nice Pike. Her first Pike of the year!

 Then Joanne caught a cute Bass.

 My turn to get into some fun. A Perch!

 Last fish of the evening, a little Bass!

Back to the marina to watch the sun go down.

July 3 2013-Hot & Calm

 Today the weather is hot and the lake is very calm! At least the family of Canada Geese are enjoying the day.

 Joanne hooked into this monster Bass. Well, some day it will be a monster Bass!

Here's a nice Bass!

 And finally, a tiny Perch!
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                Our Lily's are in bloom!

June 25 2013-Fishing With Daryl

 First time out fishing with Daryl this year. On our way to our favourite fishing spot, we enjoyed a MacDonalds breakfast.

 Daryl's first Bass of the year.

 A few minutes later, I caught this nice sized Pike!

 Joanne catches another Clam.

Joanne catches her first Bass of the year. Had a fun day!

June 18 2013-Great Day with Udo

Fishing with Udo for the first time this year on the Walkabout. I started the day off with this nice plump 17" Smallmouth Bass. Bass season has not yet started, so it was live released!

 Then Udo caught a nice 26" Pike. He kept this one for dinner!

 Then Udo hooked into this 17 3/4" Bass which he live released.

 My turn to catch this 28" Pike which I kept for dinner!

Finished the day with another smaller Bass. Live released! Once again, another great day with Udo!
