Sinker

Mine is downloaded on my phone. If I can't find where it is, its not my problem anymore. Its up to the CO to find out if I have it or not. S.

2 days in a row now out my way, hwy 115 closed both directions. People just dont get it. I dont' care what road conditions are like, I just watch out for the idiots. I have dedicated snows, and 4x4, but I still don't drive as fast as these idiots. Notice there always seems to be a big rig involved? Both times here, yesterday and today, the big rigs went off the road, driving too fast, and caused pile ups. These guys are the most dangerous drivers on the road now a days. I know some of them are good, but most of them are not. I don't trust them for a second. There used to be a time when they were the best on the roads, and your safest bet was to hop in behind one and just follow along, Not anymore. I don't even like going by one on the hwy anymore. Half the time they can't even stay in their own lane on good roads. Welcome to Ontario. Worst drivers in the world. S.

I'm open to trades still ......lol.....just not that 20. I need a tiller.

Most people who try it say the same. Glad you enjoy. Most people also burn the crap out of their fish. It doesn't need to be cooked at a really high temp, and doesn't need to cook too long either. Looks like you have it just right! S.

Nice. That batter looks ok in my books! S.

I recognize that old girl! lol Your old johnson is running like a top still. I did a bit of work to it, but nothing major. Good luck with the sale! S.

I wasn't overly impressed by the food saver either. Its ok for dry things, but for fish, its not as good as freezing in a zip lock with water. The bags sometimes get punctured in the freezer too, so that voids the whole "air tight" theory. Even zip locks, with fish frozen in water is fine if the bag gets punctured. For dry (ish) things its ok, but still gets expensive buying bags for it. I can get a good air tight zip lock with a straw. Just put a straw in the bag, seal it tight to the straw, and suck the air out. It works just about as good as a food saver. Just my opinion. S.

Got mine a few days ago. Just plug it in and go. Sweet deal! S.

Easy way to make an ice anchor adaptor is take a deep socket and a grinder. Grind out a slot in the deep socket to fit the ice anchors, and boom, your setting anchors in seconds. I find the eskimo anchors work the best. I run an otter lodge flip though, so I don't deal with any of that stuff much anymore. Pop ups do have a time and place though, i also have 2 of those when I need them. One is a 16x8 Eskimo that has been a great base camp when we have a large group, or kids with us, the other is an 8x8 that works great for hauling gear by hand for early ice before I can get the sled out to haul the otter. S.

Thanks for the heads up. Just ordered a new chip. Great deal! My last one expired in 2014 LOL.... I couldn't get it to work on my PC though, the little check box at the end to acknowledge privacy wouldn't work, so I did it on my phone with no problem. S.

IF it were me, I"d go east. Get away from the GTA crowds, and hit the land O lakes area. Tons of great lakes with no fishermen. I dont' generally stay at lodges, so i'm not much help there, but buckshot lake lodge is one I have been to, and was a great. Good walleye, and tons of bass if that's what you want. Also pike and lakers if you so desire. That whole land o lakes region is awesome. A bit too far for the GTA'ers, but its really not that far at all. Tons of different lakes. S.

Beauty! looks like a real slick hut too! S.

Screw Bell. Best move I made was telling them to stuff it. S.

IF your going to buy one, get a vest. The belt is better than nothing, but the vest will actually save your life if you are in a bad situation. The belt is just a means of recovery. I'm guilty of never wearing a lifejacket, or PFD. Our christmas presents this year to each other were auto inflate vests. You won't see me with out it on ever again. S.

Order them direct from Set The Hook. The meegs catches way more. I"ve fished them both side by side, and the meegs is hands down the way to go. Great video! S.

A friend of mine just did exactly what you want to do. Got the thermal cover delivered direct from clam, over the phone, to his door in about a week. $250 US. Well worth it. The thermal cover is the only way to go. Its night and day. S.

I don't feel like arguing today. Maybe tomorrow. S.

That is one slick sleigh!! Really nice job! I would have cut the runners wider as well, but i'm sure it slides along nicely. In deep snow though, it will dig in some. Still a really slick design. S.

At the end of the day, a regular sonar marks the same fish. I can see some advantage to finding fish further away, for sure, but when vertical, its just a cooler picture and that's all. S.

The ONLY way to know if ice is safe, is to go see it for yourself. Period. That is all. I've had it both ways, someone says ice is great, and it sucks, and reports of sketchy ice, and its great. You gotta get off the couch and go see for yourself. S.

I'd give it a bit yet. The ice is coming along but there is a lot of rough stuff to get through. I'm waiting for the eager beaver to get out there and smooth it out a bit before I go. Until then its quinte for me.

Right. Try calling the local police or fire department for an ice thickness report. Do you really think they have set foot on the ice anywhere? Do you think they even have a spud or an auger to check? All they know is stay off the ice. And try contacting a CO.....LMAO.....good luck with that. Just try it.... The only safe ice FOR ME is ice ive checked myself, that's under my feet, at the moment I'm on it. Any other reports are just hear say. S.

Well, now is your chance I guess....Its mid jan, and the ice is good. Just sayin. S.

Hey Albert, Do you have any more of those buckets you want to get rid of? Those are great pails. Perfect for what I use them for. I'd love to find more like that. If you guys hook up, let me know and I will send some goodies your way. I'm also beekeeping now, as well as the maple syrup.... S.
