Swede 4 Posted September 22, 2006 This is a friend of mine Micky Anderson. This flathead catfish was caught on rod and reel in the Mississippi river about ten miles north of Burlington Iowa in lock and dam pool no.18. He was using shad and a wide gap hook and fishing for big catfish. They had to pull the boat anchor and chase the big flat head up river till he wore out.He weighed 43 lbs.

Swede 4 Posted October 3, 2006 Ontario is the small bass capitol of north America but a noreaster blew through plus a 60 mph wind storm just before we got there (we actually saw some snow flakes) put the fishin really slow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Lead Dog Posted October 3, 2006 I was up there a couple years ago for walleye and northerns and the first fish in the boat was a smallie. The outfitter said they were invading the lakes along English River system. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swede 4 Posted October 3, 2006 I went moose hunting around that English river years back. I have always wanted to put a boat in that river. It was very intregueing to me. It made me want to see what lies beyond the next bend.It was in that region that I had my first and last encounter with a wolf. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Lead Dog Posted October 3, 2006 I would have loved to have seen a wolf up there (or anywhere for that matter). All we saw were some bald eagles and loons that shared the lakes with us and more beaver than you can shake a stick at. It was easy to imagine all the fur trappers in that area given all the beaver we encountered. We even had one protect his lodge as we trolled past it. We did see some bear scat when portaging though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
