Who is done for the season?
 
I am ! Not a very good hard water season for me. Only two times out when it should have been 10 to 20. Caught 6 small perch all season. May the fish & oppertunity gods smile on me next year. Northern Saskatawan trip next year is in the plan. No plans for any summer fishing planed for this guy this year.
How was your season?

since you asked whos done for the season, i'm not sure if i'm allowed to respond because i am certainly not done! with the heavy snow and brutal cold this year i am making up for lost time and there is still 2 more weeks left for most lakes then another week or 2 for some good trout lakes.

Deep 03-16-2014 09:49 AM

Yep, lets get this damned winter over. I too have a SK fishing trip planned. Great to find a lake that has 5 types of trout in it.......can't wait.

I'm done!
well maybe... been a long season, got out 2-3 times a week... i'm sure my wife will appreciate me being around for a change.
take some time to finish some yard projects, unless there's some action that just can't be missed

Been done for 3 weeks.

Been a horrible winter, along with horrible fishing.

Come on north sask, melt already!

I was going to go out today but decided to call it quits, getting the pontoon ready for some still water fishing.

javlin101 03-16-2014 11:45 AM

Never got started, have not done hard water for 2 seasons now. :(

May look at selling my gear this fall.

fishunt 03-16-2014 12:08 PM

I'am out ,ice to sketchy for me down south, time to get boat ready! :character0053: or yard work? :sign0161:

Tigger72 03-16-2014 12:29 PM

Hmm
 
Maybe one more trip... not the best season this year but it was my first in Alberta and real expensive.... but now I have all the gear for each season that I think I need, just gonna work on my new old boat fix it up and make it pretty!!

1bluZebec 03-16-2014 12:33 PM

im definitely not done. I love ice fishing every weekend as much as open water fishing. Made alot of good trips this winter and more importantly to mei learned alot by exploring multiple new lakes. Still got one weekend left here and am going out to gull next weekend to officially wrap up the 13/14 hard water season. I wish everyone a good last few trips before everything gets put awy for the season. Your trip up to northern Sask. should be awesome Kim. hope you take lots of pics and post them up on here cant wait to see:sHa_shakeshout:

harrydude 03-16-2014 12:35 PM

I fished my last hardwater day this past Friday.

I should be on my boat in the next couple weeks if this wind keeps up and opens up some places I fish in the spring when everything else is closed.

I guess I had better get my act together and get my boat all fixed up and rewired before my open water season starts. :scared0018:

I'm dying to catch a few more Dino's too. It's the main thought I look forward to this summer. I'm heading to the fraser in July and August aswell around chilliwack. :sHa_shakeshout:

The hard water season is over for me. It's rock hunting time. Found this arrowhead made of kniferiver flint today.http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd55/dago029/051.jpg [IMG]http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd55/dago029/052.jpg[/IMG]

YeeHaw 03-16-2014 04:38 PM

Will be on the ice for probably another month yet, depending on ice conditions and if I get my auger back I lent out. (Before ppl jump on me, trout lakes are open after the 31'st.) might go to Alberta beach tomorrow or Tuesday, want to take the motorcycle out fishing just for shays and giggles.

Lefty-Canuck 03-16-2014 06:09 PM

Today was spent playing with the mighty eelpout :). A copper rattlin rap with the front treble removed and a white gulp curly tail in the back treble out fished a jig and a minnow. Had many double headers which is fun when you are by yourself!

Love the burb porn, keep it coming.:)

Zip-in-Z 03-16-2014 07:41 PM

I'm thinkin the hard water season is only 1/2 over, got lots of ice time to go before I call it ! As well, need to keep the Sylvan Lake Report thread going to March 31, & then there's the closing ceremony... perhaps at the Sylvan Legion!

I agree with Waterhttp://www.golfwrx.com/forums/public...ault/ninja.gif ...... lots of Trout lakes/ponds still open in April!
