Walleye Fishing on Lac Saint Louis - Again!

I forgot to report on a great day on the water I had recently with 2 great friends: my business partner, Richard Couture; and my usual walleye fishing partner, Michel Richard (aka Mike Walleye). We dropped the boat in the water at the Lachine pier on Friday morning (first light), took a fast ride to our spot, where we jigged for walleye for a little under 6 hours.

We got 47 walleyes, mostly small ones, we only kept about 10 of them for the table.

The fillets were all nice and clean - I mention this because this past spring I caught a bunch of real nice looking walleyes in Lac Saint Pierre and most of them were infested with tiny little worms.

Fishing is the World's Most Dangerous Sport!

Tonight I came across a very informative television show called manswers. Besides discussions on boob shapes and bikini sizes, I learned that fishing is the world's most dangerous sport. In fact, they were saying that fishing is the sport most likely to cause death, and that no other sport even comes close.

Of course, most of the deaths come from drowning, hitting submerged objects while driving too fast, or just driving while intoxicated.

I guess this is another great opportunity to remind you guys to wear your PFDs - because if you fish often enough, you WILL end up in the float one of these days, and if you plan on fishing into old age, you might as well face that fact and make it a habit to wear flotation jackets.
