Lake Simcoe ice thickness is about 20 inches right now. Andy, Ulrich, Mario and some friends went ice fishing on Lake Simcoe this past weekend. Action was still good. They caught about 35 perch. Lenny and a friend also went ice fishing on Lake Simcoe and they caught about 25 nice sized perch. Some other friends went fishing on this past Saturday and they were over 120 feet of water and were catching some nice jumbo perch and whitefish. Roads will be a little slippery this week due to snow flurries. Most rivers and lakes are completely frozen over right now. Best bait is minnows.

| New Treatment Methods for “Ich” Disease
Canadian Angling.com (Dec. 8, 2009) — Scientists at the University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine have just completed a whole genome sequencing of the parasite known as “ich” or “white spot” and have made a startling unexpected find. This discovery could open the doors on new treatment methods for the fish disease. Ichthyophthirius multifiliis is one of the most prevalent protozoan parasites of fish and is an important pathogen of ornamental and farm-raised food fish species. This devastating single-celled protozoan parasite also attacks freshwater fish. If you have ever owned an aquarium or two, you probably have fought this disease as we have on numerous occasions.

| Making History For A Great Cause
Port Perry, Ontario (September 21, 2009) – Professional angler and host of Facts of Fishing THE SHOW® Dave Mercer has made the Major League Baseball (MLB) history books. On September 21st at 7:00pm Dave became the first person in the history of the league to “cast” (with rod and reel) the opening pitch, kicking off the game between the Toronto Blue Jays® and Baltimore Orioles.
The historic cast took place at the Rogers Center® in downtown Toronto, and created an excellent opportunity to raise money for a great cause. In conjunction with the Blue Jays a “Facts of Fishing” section of seats was created where $5 from every ticket sold was donated by the Jays to Dave Mercer’s Casting for a Cure charity benefiting the Canadian Cancer Society. Casting for a Cure was created by Mr. Mercer in honour of his late mother, Ann Mercer who lost her battle with cancer and has since raised over $100,000 for cancer research.

| Great Lakes Levels On The Rebound
Canadian Angling.com (July 21, 2009) After a decade long drop in levels, the Great Lakes water levels are finally on the increase. The lakes started to see an increase in the fall of 2007 after the lowest levels recorded that summer. The low levels drastically hurt the maritime industries, as Cargo ships were forced to reduce their loads due to the shallower harbours. Some harbours had to be dredged in order to allow shipping.
The Great Lakes (French: Grands Lacs) are a chain of freshwater lakes located in eastern North America, on the Canada – United States border. Consisting of Lakes Superior, Michigan, Huron, Erie, and Ontario, they form the largest group of freshwater lakes on Earth. Because of their size, some regard them as inland seas. The Great Lakes contain roughly 22% of the world’s fresh surface water: 5,472 cubic miles (22,810 km3), or 6.0×1015 U.S. gallons (2.3×1016 liters).

| Salmon And Trout Populations Threatened In U.K.
Canadian Angling.com (July 21, 2009) Research by Bournemouth University and published in the International Journal of Parasitology show that UK Salmon and brown trout are threatened by a deadly parasite.
Dr Rodolphe Gozlan and his fellow researchers believe the disease is a parasite first identified in the UK in 2005; Sphaerothecum destruens
Sphaerothecum destruens (The Rosette agent) is a parasite of fish. It was first discovered in the USA in association with invasive species including topmouth gudgeon but was found to be the causative agent of a disease in the UK affecting salmonid species such as Atlantic salmon and brown trout. It is thought to pose more of a risk in Europe than in the USA as native species there are more susceptible to the parasite.

| Swine Flu: We Need Research on Animal Pathogens!
Canadian Angling.com (Apr. 28, 2009) — We all have probably heard about the outbreak of Swine Flu that started in Mexico and watched as it has started to spread across North America. After watching the unsettling stories on CNN, reading the stories in the New York Times and the Toronto Sun, however we must remain calm and look at the big picture, according to Dr. X. J. Meng, a virologist who is on faculty in the Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine at Virginia Tech.

| Largemouth Bass Genetics: Vulnerability of being caught is a Heritable Trait
Canadian Angling.com (Apr. 15, 2009) — Researchers at the University of Illinois recently concluded an experiment on largemouth bass lasting 20 years that found that vulnerability of being caught by fisherman is a heritable trait. The researchers used a resident population in Ridge Lake (Charleston). Fishing was restricted with fishermen having reserved fishing times allocated and all fish were placed in a live well. The fish were then recorded and tagged. They then were released.
