  1. Sorry to hear about your suffering, but nice to see you out bud! No vids? S.
  2. I didnt even have to ask! Sorry you had to deal with that crap Chessy! Hope she works like a charm from here on out! S.
  3. Bass, pike, and rumours of some splake. A buddy of mine had a cottage there for years. Decent bass and pike, you shouldn't have a problem catching fish.
  4. I have seals skin mitts, but that's it. I've always wanted a pair of boots, but man, they are pricey! lol
  5. @DRIFTER_016 If you were in Ontario, there is a chance. My buddy had a hell of a time getting it diagnosed. So many odd symptoms, that could have been anything. He eventually had to cross the border to get tested properly, and once diagnosed, was treated properly and is doing perfectly fine since. How do you figure you got covid? I know it was around earlier than most realize. I think myself and a group of friends MAY have had it as well, before the "Pandemic" kicked in, but like you said, won't know for sure. We are all fine though, just a bad cold. S.
  6. Were you diagnosed with covid? Or just assume thats what you had at the time? I kind of remember your story being along the lines of you got sick at the time covid started, but weren't diagnosed? I could be wrong. Have you been checked for Lyme disease? I have a friend who has been through hell and back again with Lyme. They also just assumed covid related, but he was also not diagnosed with covid, and has never tested positive. S.
  7. Use what you have, just take it in the shower with you when your done. S.
  8. I finally broke down and put out the money for the simms gear after trying all the others. Save your money and do it right once. I'd second the BPS. I have only had my simms jacket and bibs for a year, but man, it keeps you REALLY dry. S.
  9. Are we related? I am banned from a couple of Provincial parks LOL ..... Sounds like a great trip floater! s.
  10. Yes, but you also hauled around a lot of extra weight for the first half of your week lol S.
  11. Id get whatever one you can get with a yamaha engine. I personally like that crestliner more, and I'm a tiller guy. S.
  12. Thats plenty of gas for a 50hp 4 stoke engine. I can fish for days and days on a 25L tank with my 40 yamaha. No need to haul around any more than that anyways. If your going so far that you need more, just bring it in gerry cans. S.
  13. Yeah, but how many 45" muskies do you think most people catch in a season? Its about the chase. Like you said, I can sit on my dock, or any bridge and catch bass all day long. At the end of the day, i fish for everything. I just don't get excited over bass. I might fish them once or twice a season. S.
  14. Coming from the bass guy whos making a post asking where everyone is going fishing haha....... I just don't get whats so attractive about fishing for fish, that a 5lber is a tank. ...... S.
  15. I'm on the water 2 or 3 days a week. Almost constant use of the bowmount the whole time on the water. S.
  16. I bought my ipilot last summer and am still using the same battery in my remote. Am i doing something wrong? S.
  17. I went for a quick evening troll last night. Had 2 hits, one of them hooked for a few headshakes but got off. My musky season doesn't really pick up until they are in summer spots off deep weeds. I got a nice pair of walleyes though....lol S.
  18. I agree, but the trailer slid because of the bunk slides in all scenarios. People are stupid. Have you seen the people at boat launches?? Any surprise things aren't strapped down properly? See the trailers going down the roads?? I know my stuff isn't going anywhere, ever. Over rated everything. S.
  19. No thanks. I've seen a guy with the slides on his bunks hit the brakes at a quick yellow light and the whole boat pushed his winch post right off the trailer and thru the back windshield of his SUV. Seen a boat slide off the trailer after leaving a stop sign when the winch strap snapped. Seen several boats slide off the trailer at the ramp, before they were in the water. I will stick to my long carpeted bunks, thanks. If your having trouble winching the boat on the trailer, get a bigger winch. Simple. S.
  20. I used wood. Large 8x8 blocks I have kicking around. Those welded crestliners are kind of famous for splitting open. I'm not a real fan of welded hulls, unless its thick metal. You have more cracks somewhere in the hull if your satisfied your plumbing isn't leaking. S.
  21. Are you 100% sure the livewell lines aren't leaking? Put a plug in the livewell drain hole in the transom, and try again? Where are you located? What size boat is it? To get my boat off the trailer I used my trailer tongue jack. Crank it all the way down as far as it will go, then block the transom solid. Now, crank the tongue jack all the way up and the transom will lift off the trailer. Once you have the jack all the way up, block under the keel at the bow, and let the jack down enough that you can see the whole hull. I have done this several times to replace my trailer bunks over the years, and once to paint the boat. It works, just make sure you have it blocked up good and solid. S.
  22. I've caught my biggest walleyes fishing for musky, and my best musky fishing for walleye...lol
  23. Yeah, a couple of my sons friends got it recently as well. Take care man! S.
  24. Do you know how you got it? How you doing now? S.
