Just wonder how long is it and is a jet drive !
I seen a flat bottom boat with a 20 hp jet drive on her a few weeks back i was thinking of picking up as a second boat just for some NSR fishing.

If you are interested maybe we can trade a fishing trip River for a lake trip !

You are going to have a blast. There are a couple really good spots right around the Fort, and I'm sure you'll find them!

[buckbrushoutdoors]

i know most of the spots in the firt here, there are just so many more to explore out side the fort. A guy i work with got some maps of the nsr from a friend who is a bioligist and does the sturgeon studys and tagging and the map has been marked with all the known sturgeon bedding holes i cant wait to try a few of them out.

[buckbrushoutdoors]

well shes no yacht but its all i need for now..... hahah i will probably buy a bigger machine in the next year but for two guys it should be just perfect
any suggetions for a name i was thinking
"whure lure" ?

Thats a nice walleye if i may ask what area of NSR, last summer my old big guy was bout 4 lbs and didnt have camera with me :( and the only time i caught a pike at NSR it was about 14 inches long haha.

Thats like cheating but awesome :P , my dad used to catch alot of sturgeon on the NSR but in prince albert, Sask he said the biggest was bout 140 cm,

[buckbrushoutdoors]

right in the middle of the fort usually we catch one of those a night if we can keep the gold eye off the hook long enough, and i feel your pain for not having a camera all i have to show for my 34" walley is a mark in my paddle from my knife hahah that still haunts me

Explorer Industries in Edmonton. It's the second boat they built for me. I used to have an Explorer 162DC. It was awsome.... Just figured I'd go a bit bigger.
