Guest Nonus Report post Posted March 17, 2009 There is like 6 inches of water on top of the snow on the river near the expressway. Hopefully that will start melting the ice underneath it and then she will start flowing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

canadianyanke 7 Report post Posted March 18, 2009 I snowshoed into the dam and the pipeline a few days ago and got skunked. I casted everything, spoons, raps, streamers, smelts, spinners jigs but no luck. It was hard to get down close to the water as there was like 3 feet of snow on the banks and you cant really tell if your standing on a rock or on ice, It was alot of fun whippin the lure around though. Cant wait for the ice to melt. Looks like its back to kama for some whities. Chuck: Did your friend fish up above or down below in the lower river? I wish I had a light 14 or a 12 to throw in and shoot up the river =( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bottom Bouncer 22 Report post Posted April 5, 2009 The McIntyre River is unique in the fact that it's molecular structure is that of City Alpha 5. Also there is a Klingon patrolling the Gamma system of the river. You know how you are (R#@^O). I figure one Proton Torpedo will loosen the rivers sea structure and let all you aliens fish the sea urchin that you so desire. Live Long and Prosper.

Guest RAMBO Report post Posted April 10, 2009 The ice is gone at the bridge on Junot. No Ice and probably no fish. Mind you, its about6-7 feet deep in that pool so there might be a couple over-wintering.... RAMBO Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
