manitoba fishing report so far

so far ive been to a graduation, shopping, visiting thew wifes old friends, and fished the assiniboine river.

woooopie. I caught a couple stone cats and hooked but lost something big. Was probably a big Drum, or a carp.

if i was in winnipeg today like i was SUPPOSED TO BE, i was invited on a 18 foot boat from some friends in winnipeg, to go fish a lake in whiteshell park for smallies, pike and crappies.

But as always, if the brother in law is out of town from winnipeg, the family over here sees no point in driving into winnipeg.

Soooooooooooooooo, i leave tomorrow by myself, LOL gonna fish for catfish bait in the morning, then check out S.I.R. and a few other places, then go to Lockport around mid afternoon into the evening for Channel Cats. who needs the others, Muh hahahahahahahahahaha

P.S. - dont get a wood tick in your butt crack

You sure they were stone cats???? More likely a bullhead. Stone cats are very very rare west of the St. Lawrence.

well yes they are Bull heads, but the locals call them Stonecats. I call them bait for bigger catfish

going down in a while to see if we can pull out some sucker, goldeye and mooneye for channel catfish bait tomorrow. Although i can catcha bucket full of goldeye at the Locks tomorrow in 10 minutes. Hopefully if all is well, ill be on the winnipeg river system for smallies on saturday

Yes, goldeye are definitely the bait of choice for those big old cats. Had a riot hooking catfish on slip bobbers one time just below the locks. I'd love to try that again. Fish were up in less than two feet of water and went insane when you set the hook. Good luck.

Hopefully you can get into some white bass on the river as well. Man they are fun to catch on light gear.

NDN, where is the slideshow or are there no worthy pics without your star fisherman being there?

And I have to agree with the others, put the laptop down, grab the Quantum and go!!

I leave Friday noon for Saskatchewan. Going to hit Dief (walleyes and rainbows), Boundary Dam ( largemouth), mom's cabin for walleyes and big pike and then Murphy (Corona's with cousins and the odd walleye).

See ya in 3 weeks!

You are kidding ?

Sure don't have dial up

Takes me an hour to visit about 6-8 sites !

You had best cut the apron strings & post some Cat picks, Large Mouth, Small mouth......etc.......or stay till you can !

the outlook aint so great, just got back from Rivers, MB. everywalleye hooked got off the hook right by shore, they would spazz out like they knew i was gonna eat them. the brother in laws stepson managed a nice sucker.


i wont be uploading any pics until i get back to AB. forgot my USb cord
