  1. I would really like to find a square back canoe(scanoe,ram-x type) by tomorrow night. I would prefer used in good condition but I will also look at new. I am in the London area but will travel to find one. so any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance
  2. motor mount for a canoe and how much will it cost me. Lookin to pick one up this weekend for next week. I am in the London area but will be heading towards North Bay monday morning. thanks
  3. Hey Pike I will be there from Monday JULY 06 to July 19th. I have been going there for about 20 years. Stop by my site in the Kettle Point area site # 426 and I can help you out.
  4. I have a tent trailer . I have noticed then when I hook up the hydro everything works but the transformer in the trailer fan does not come on. After a few minutes with the power on the transformer starts to make a squealing noise.Still everything works but the transformer box starts to get hot. I asumed it was the fan that died,but I pulled out the box and replaced the fan and the exact thing is still happening. Is it the circuit board in the teransformer ? Do I have to replace the whole transformer? If anyone knows of a site that could answer my questions please post thanks.
  5. the campsites at the end of the loop in the Cedars area the numbers are 45-49 are all good sites with lots of privacy and 48 is right next to the boat ramp and dock.The downside is it is a ways to the showers and full service restrooms. Last year stayed at site 307 big site,lots of room, right around the corner from the main boat ramp ,beach and docks,plus just a short walk to the main restrooms.
  6. At the south end of the lake there is a dam. Try fishing from shore below the dam. We used to fish there every june and did very well with eyes and pike. Try floating a minnow below a float. There is a bait shop right at the dam.It has been about 12 years or so since I have been there,so make sure you check the regs.
  7. if you have a 16ft or larger boat,Long Point. You have access to pike,bass,waleye.rainbows. If the main lake is to rough you can fish the inner bay for bass and pike.
  8. well I have camped at the pinery since i was a young lad. The fishing is actually descent. The river above the little falls where the canoes rentals are has bass and pike. They use to stock it with rainbows many moons ago ,but I think that stopped way back. Below the little falls(the tunnel which goes under the road) I have caught largemouth,pike,carp,crappies and loads of panfish. If you have a canoe fish on this side ,there are some weed choked bays that hold both pike and bass. There is also a good population of bowfins in there,man are they a tough fish.Rock bass,sunfish and perch are plentiful also.The lower side has the better fishing.
  9. it has to do more with the speakers than the actual radio.
  10. just a cheap marine radio with a couple speakers,does not have to have CD player but that would be nice just am/fm, either new or used I don't want to spend a whole lot. I have seen a few for around 250-350 price but I don't want to spend that much.. I want to install on the boat before July holidays. So if you know of one for a descent price or have one your looking to get rid of let me know please.
  11. I'd say strut bearings,I had the same problem on the exact vehicle a couple years ago.Had to replace bearings. If I can remember correctly I think the bearing is part of the strut so I had to replace the whole strut,not really sure .I think it had something to do with them not just selling the bearing but the whole strut assembly. Maybe someone else could confirm this,it was a few years ago.
  12. need a prop for an older minkota 765 mx. Where can I find one? Does CT carry replacements?
  13. just checked the long range forecast on this site http://www.weatheroffice.gc.ca/saisons/index_e.html and now it is claiming the summer will be cooler and wetter than normal for most of central ,southern and near north ontario. Just 2 weeks ago it was saying it would be hotter with normal precipation. My question is why bother when it changes so much in such a short time frame. So what is it hotter summer or cooler wetter?They update this every 2 weeks or so ,next time will be on June 15th. Wonder how much it will change then?
  14. until they twinned the bridge there use to be a launch right beside 69 at the bridge. Not sure if you can pull off and launch now?
  15. Restoule, about 2 hours from Orillia. Great scenery,never to busy and great fishing for walleye,bass,musky,pike and lakers. Not to mention a very nice PP for camping.There are 3 lakes accessable from the park and many others in the area.
  16. yes it is a side console starfire 160 sc. Does alright with a 40 about 28mph. I am looking to swap out the motor for a 75 etec.
  17. well i just did it as a web site suggested used the bathroom scale in the driveway.With the tongue resting on the scale it says it is 160lbs. The boat weighs 750 dry,the motor 240.
  18. I have a 16ft starcraft starfire with a 40 4-stroke . What would the tongue weight be on this? I am looking at using hitch mounted bike rack to carry 3 bikes but you can also still tow 2000lbs with 200lb tongue weight with this bike rack. Would i be okay?
  19. well I have a 4-stroke evinrude,and what the mech. at the dealer told me and what I have done the last 2 seasons was, mix gas(.5 litre )with equal amounts of fogging oil and gas stabilizer(about 1oz) and run it through the motor. I use a seperate small tank and hose to do this. He says after running it through there is no need to spray oil into the carb.He says this is what they do at the dealer and charge you about 150 bucks to do.
  20. try the Columbia Outlet in Windsor. They have a ton of rain wear about half price or even lower. It is all Columbia brand they have light weight suits all the way to top of the line marine/boat wear.
  21. I don't think Archie is there anymore. It was called stop and Go bait. I think he has started to run it out of house again over off Thompson Road area. I can't remember the street name but I know where it is.
  22. anywhere else to get minnows in the London/St.Thomas area?
  23. is he open still? Does he have minnows?where aelse in the area could I get some minnows?
