yup, stay away from that junk crappy tire sells. Just get a little honda, yam, merc, johnny whaveter finding parts will be very difficult. For example just go to the ctc and tell them you need a new impellor kit, coil, wires, stator and starter spring. These are all common thing you will need to rpelace over time. as well ask for a carb rebuild kit. Then think of yourself in 10 years asking for the same part.

I can run 28mph on gps full of gear and two people in my Lund SV16 with a 30 yam 3 cyl 2 stroke.

Normally I just get it on plane and throttle back enough to keep the nose up, put the feet up and relax.

Just the motor hitting the ground. you will need to flip the axle over as well as the spring perches will be on the wrong side of the axle

I always thought over posesion charges were for each fish?

Dito on the fishing. Its not so great, I hate fishing for bass in a canoe, and I tried fishing for lakers there a few times without much success. If you camping to go fishing then you may want to search around, if your camping and are gonna go fishing then you should be ok.

Well, he did end his season with a bad concusion. Was found in his apartment, no signs of trauma. I don't know anything about him other than what everyone else knows of him being a great enforcer, but when no signs of trauma is released its probably drugs or natural causes. I wouldn't at all be surprised if he died of some kind of brain aneurism or something from all the fights. Great fighter and a please to watch.

I have an engine boat.

I'll be the guys offering to boost the sweaty mud covered girls over the wall.

If you know what the heck a Lu Lu Lemon is.

I don't think these would be allowed in ontario under the spring powered setting of hooks rules in the regs.... Sounds almost like a spring loades gaf on the end of your line.

Good luck with the crappie, they are a fun fish to go for, but can be very frustrating. Keep changing this up til you catch one. Where there is one there is many at this time of year.

Yah, thats why I quit shore fishing many years ago. It used to be safe a sound in the boat, now its even getting bad there. Thankfully people leave me alone while I am in my tree stand with my 30/06 while deer hunting. Now if only I could find a way to legally put my tree stand in my boat and carry a gun and I think my world would be a perfect place.

The "R" word is still live and well in Ontario especially on and around the water.

Funiest one was a few weeks ago I walked past a marina and asked if they had any open slips for the summer. The owner went on and on for a half hour or so about how much he hated "those Asians" and how "some of them" bought the other marina and not to go there. I guess I shoulda took my hat and sunglasses off, as my lack of accent must have thrown him off. I just kinda slipped out the door shaking my head.

I kinda debated posting this thread to begin with but I was pretty steamed about it. Anyway, after the trout opener skunking I took, it sure was nice to get into some targetted fish. I mean out side of the idiot comments, at least give a guy some space. I mean why hoard in on someone thats just minding there own business. There is a whole lake to fish. Its not like there are only fish under my boat. They are everywhere. Especially crappie.

There is a guy that has a kennel south of Port Perry, he has a few dog sled teams, you may want to give hime a ring. I think he mostly runs alaskan huskies though as he is out for pure speed versus traditional siberian husky sledding. Try some of the dog sledding sites. Google Alaskan Husky behavior, I thin kthey moved from a forum to a facebook site and ask on there.

Just keep mixing it up. They eat all day long if you put it in front of them.

Probably too old to be taught the run a dog sled otherwise I am sure you woul dbe able to go on some of the sledding forums and find it a new home.

Good luck man. No matter what anyone says, with a big dog you gotta take care of number 1. I am all for animal rights but sometimes common sense must rule.

I gotta admit I am half tempted to go find them during the emerald isle tourney and go fish for sunfish where they are bass fishing.

I don't ever want anyone to be in trouble, I just wanna go enjoymy day in peace. I prefer to leave all the poop disturbing to the fishing boards when I am off the water.

Yah I can't really complain too much, I think they got the point and the fishing was really good once we got dialed in. Worst part of the weekend was I broke the dip off of my Compre setting the hook on a musky that was disguised as a crappie. Gotta make a run down to aikmans this week. Its my walleye rod, that doubles as a drop shot and crappie rod. I hope he has a few spools kickin around, I would love to have some extra spools for those symetre's I bought on sale at gagnon's.

Just came to meI am pretty sure its an MTD.. I think I got it at ctc, I can't recall for sure now. May have been walmart.

My parents have had a honda self powered one for about 15 years, and still starts on the first crank. I cheaped out and bought one on sale at CTC, I can't recall the brand but its red, and has a Briggs and Straton motor. Its a pita to start and is only a year old. I keep hinting to my parents that they should buy a new mower, in hopes they give me theres.

Well, Went fishing with the GF this weekend for some kawartha crappie. Saturdays bite was a bit slow in the normal spot but the water temp was a bit down from last year, 54 degrees. We slowed down and were putting crappie in the boat maybe 2 an hour. The sun fish were crazy and driving me nuts, tonnes of bluegill and pumkin seeds. We moved deeper and shallower to try and get away from them but they wouldn't go away.

Sunday was better water was a couple degrees warmer, we finished off our limit with some great sized crappie. Of course as usual with the kawartha's. As I always come to expect we run into some redneck racist pigs on the water. In a White Nitro, grey and red stripes with a 150 Merc. They come into the small bay and get on the trolling motor. they start on the opposite side and I guess they weren't having much luck, because after the first crappie we put in the boat when they came in the bay they buzz over to us within 15 feet of us. We are anchored down and they start fan casting all around us. Then the guy in the front says to me. "Hey we caught lots of sunfish do you want to eat them?"

I said back to him "Well if you are only catching sunfish maybe you should just tie off to the back off my boat. You're so far away you may not catch any crappie way over there". I'll leave some of the choice comments that were hurled at us out of the this thread.

So he proceeded to stay on his trollin motor circling us for about a half an hour before he finally managed to cast right over my line. I mean really. Its not like we are all shoulder to shoulder at the grand river on opener here. We are in a lake in boats that move around. So I fired one two feet in front of his boat and let it sit there for about 10 minutes. The guy in the back I could tell was uncomfortable with the situation as he motioned to him to back off a few times.

Since we were at our limit and were trying to cull out some of the smaller ones from the live well. My GF wisely said "I can see your angry face coming out lets just go somewhere else before you jump into there boat", and believe me they were close enough I could have.

So I fired up the motor and left it on full rpm's idling for about 5 minutes while I pulled up the anchor and put my jacket on. We drifted to within about 2 feet of them, before I cut the throttle back and drove out of the bay.

I bumped into a friend back at my cousins place who said we was in the same bay later that day. I asked him if he saw a white Nitro with grey and red stripes and a 150 merc on it, with two older white guys in it. We said yah. "Those guys a morons". I said why what happened. He said "We caught one crappie and they came buzzing right over with there trolling motor then the guy in the back told the guy in the front to back off and give them some space"

I laughed and said "Was the deck of his boat wet?"

Anyway. I would expect more from a tournament bass fisherman. I know he goes in the emerald Isle Tourney, but never the less we had a great time. Here is a pic of our crappie from day 2.... day 1 all hit the frying pan and dissapered too quickly for a picture. Yum Yum...

We found the ideal water temp to be about 57 degrees in about 5-7 fow, in an area with submersed weed growth. We were using micro tubes suspended below a slip float, about 2 feet to 3 feet under the float. The trick to getting away from the sun fish was adjusting the height of the bobber. Too high and no fish. Too low and only sunfish.

Well I guess if there were only two roads where I lived I would share the same opinion.

No Tom Tom in my car but I do have a Garmin.

I really don't think it's all that big of a deal as long as they don't sell personal info.

Wouldn't where you go, when you go places, the route you took and how fast your were going be considered personal information?

Why not just hook up a ticket machine to every car that automatically gives you tickets for every infraction you make. Why bother with police and police cars. That is so old school. Imagine the revenue generation. Every missed signal, speed, cell phone use, cutting people off, running a red, rolled through stop sign....

Just like Demolition Man

We call it an upgrade....updates are free.

I agree.. I think a righty govt for a few terms, followed by a lefty govt to make some tweaks is the way to go... Crank one way and tweak th eother is about the best way I can invision things. Its just not possible to sit on the fence and get things right. Its like driving with chine walk you gotta work the wheel a little. You can't just hold the wheel dead down the middle. If you do you end up Bow Hooking.
