I'd rather dress warm than have my boat catch on fire! Just sayin lol These work good as well. http://www.quickcable.com/products.php?pageId=148

Just get rid of the plug all together. There is no need for it at all. Hardwire it together, solder, shrink wrap and never worry about it again. That plug is such a hassle. I took mine out about 10 years ago, or more, and never had an issue since. S.

Theres a bit more to it than just dragging a harness at 1.5mph. Finding weeds is really the key, and the right weeds. I've always done well on pigeon close to bobcaygeon, and south towards 3 sisters. This year they might be shallower than usual with high water, and cold temps. I was on rice on wed and its only 55 degrees, so slow and steady. Probably still lots of fish in current areas, but I can't do the crowds in those spots. S.

Find weeds or current and you will find fish. You know me, worm harnesses always work. 1.5mph on any new weeds I find. S.

I bought a couple of these for Lori and I after Kevin Wong's accident. Good buy for anyone who spends any amount of time on the water. S.

I have a 40 hp mariner longshaft you could use. Runs mint, just has no reverse! S.
-
I have 4 of them. Use them for everything from canning, maple syrup finishing, to fish fry's. I run two at a time off a 100lb tank. S.

We have a flat top. Its ok, but I liked the gas in our last place better. The flat top takes longer to boil a big pot of water, and it sucks for finishing maple syrup, where the gas was awesome for that. Its 6 of one, half a dozen of the other though at the end of the day. S.

I"d say the may long weekend would be an optimistic guess. lol S.

Been that way for about 10 years now. I don't disconnect anything. Never had an issue. I don't even run a fuse, it was also a pain in the butt, so its straight 6 Ga wire from motor to battery. (might even be 4 ga, I forget now)
-
No plug for me. Stupid thing is always the weak link so I removed it and now have straight power from the battery to the motor. I also upgraded the wire. Way better, and never had an issue since.

Canadian online boat & marine suppliers?
Sinker replied to Hack_Fisherman's topic in General Discussion
I've had better luck calling and placing an order, then they can ship to suit your needs, and shipping conditions. S. -
Don't feel bad. I drove a full year with an expired license and no sticker lol....had no idea until i went in the next year to get a new sticker. They tell me they can't renew it until I get an eye test because its been expired more than a year.....I was like "oh really".....LOL..... S.

The canyons are nice for sure, but screw GM, and guys like me who are 6'4 don't fit in them so well. I need the space of a full size anyways. S.

New fishing licences rant(the day the music died)
Sinker replied to Acountdeleted's topic in General Discussion
Who knows. The other 2 CO's and the Cop were good guys. Shot the bull with them for quite a bit, but the one guy had a chip on his shoulder. Oh well, no biggie, just wanted to give a heads up for anyone else. S. -

Yep, that's correct. I had my valid outdoors card with me. I was stopped one time before and had forgotten my whole wallet at home. The CO had no problem calling in my details to check my license. This guy was just being a bit of a jerk. I have thousands invested in my icefishing rig, does he really think I didn't have a license? We were out in a group of about 10 people, all with machines, and top of the line portables, flashers, all the gear.....like I didn't have a license? Our whole group was 100% legit. Just being a jerk is all. No need to be like that other than ego. End of the day, I was in the wrong, but he didn't have to be a jerk about it. I just wanted to share my experience so others don't get caught in the same situation. S. -
New fishing licences rant(the day the music died)
Sinker replied to Acountdeleted's topic in General Discussion
I was too. I had my license downloaded on my phone. Fishing simcoe one day, late in the day, my phone had died, 3 wardens and a york regional show up. Heres me with a dead phone and no way to prove i had a license. I was about to get a $244 ticket, until I got the bright idea to log into my email on someone elses phone and find my reciept. The guy was being a bit of a jerk, but, the point is, make sure you can prove you have one, because this guy was not going to call it in and find out, and had no problem writing me a ticket. S. -
I'll be in touch!

Good score Cliff. Maybe I will hit you up this spring and we can throw my tinner in the back of my truck and hit some of my old speck stomping grounds and giver a whirl. S.

I don't find my hemi hard on gas at all. Better than other full size 4x4 trucks, and even some SUV's. They are, and always have been, bulletproof engines. I'd buy another no questions. I hear more horror stories about the eco diesel to be fair. S.

I"d assume doubled up R22.....but you know what happens when you assume....lol S.

My snows stay on until May. They are great in mud as well..... ...I was glad to have them last night driving from bowmanville to PTBO in a white out. Couldn't see a thing!! S.
-
Yeah, screw that. However, I do love the Yeti cups. Keeps ice in my rye for hours. S.
-
I think that's a better choice than moore lake.You will enjoy it up there. If you feel like checking out another lake or two, fortesque and salerno are both fun to fish as well. Musky, walleye, and bass in both, and fortesque has lakers too. Some good rainbow/splake/speck lakes close by as well. I love that country. S.
