hey i was at the cottage this weekend and i had my boat sink on me. We did get it out dried the spark plugs (took them out and cranked the engine) and we also removed the distrubuter cap(i think thats what is called where all the spark plug wires are ) and draind all the water from that. I then put everything back togeather to see if she would run again and she did and quite nicely. I took it out today for a run and it kept on kicking and bogging. i had to leave early. what would that be. and how can i fix that and the leak right where the plug is (silicone?) thanks bigredfisher would putting too much oil in cause it to knock.

Well i would like to get out for some walleye in it. I have been searching all over this year, only catching a few here and there. I would like to ask you guys what lake would you reccomend for this weekend. I really want to get into some walleye. Pms are ok as i know that some spots are "special" as i have a few that i am willing to exchange for walleye information. thanks for the help and remember " your secret is safe with me" i am just really looking for some lakes that got a good population of walleye. Oh i must add becasue i am asking soo much i do have 1 spot in the boat for sat morning (3:30 in oshawa).

ya i did and now im kicking myself in the arse. It was a "spur of the moment thing" and we just had a new baby so i needed the money. I had no job to come to. Now i have a job (won 100 on a lottery ticket, which allowed me to pick up my new/old reel).

hey i catch my flight at 6:20 torrmow moarnig in st.johns heading for toronto. Getting ready for opener torrmow when i get back. Man isnt it gonna feel good to be able to get out fishing after 4 MONTHS, i really dont know how i did it, but i am coming back and gonna get em good. I already got my spots picked out yea. Now im pupmed, just picked up and okuma aventa reel too. I just thought that i would share and i look forward to seeing you all on sat. Goodluck and tightlines to all.

the rock is fine, dameon is doing really good, hes 12 lbs now... gonna be fishing in no time.

hey guys with opener awaiting us. Who is all excited for opener. Im gonna be doing LOTS of driving and fishing as i havent fished in 4 months as i am here in newfoundland with a new baby. anyways who else is goin out???? if so plese remember stream etiquette. Here is a rule of thumb that i picked up off another board. Gool luck guys and stay safe. Respect an Angler's Space This is probably the most violated rule on the river. Many popular sections of a river can be very crowded during the spawning run. Crowding another angler is inconsiderate. If you approach him or her, make sure to ask before moving into the area. Give the angler enough space so the two of you can fish without interference. Don't Walk into a Run Nothing aggrevates a veteran steelheader more than another angler walking into a run of fish. Most of the time it's because the person is not familiar with the stream. Most new steelheader's are not yet accustomed to reading water. A common rule I use is "don't go past your knees". Once again, watch where people are fishing. If you're not sure, ask. Don't Jump into Another Person's Spot When an angler is fighting a fish, more than often they may have to move from their spot to land the fish. This doesn't mean the space is available, because more than likely the person is coming back. Don't Play a Foul Hooked Fish If you foul hook (accidentally snag) a steelhead, snap the line. Tackle is cheap. Most foul hooked steelhead are very difficult to control, resulting in injury or unnecessary stress to the fish. Once foul hooked, they will leap from the water and thrash about, spooking the other fish. If you repeatedly fight foul hooked fish in a crowded section, you'll become very unpopular. Also, you will find most game wardens look at this practice unfavorably. Tolerate Other Forms of Fishing This is a never ending debate on the local rivers: fly fishermen Vs bait fishermen. To some anglers, fly fishing is the only way to catch steelhead, because they are a trout. I use both fly and spinning gear. One day, I may use minnows - another day I'll drift nymphs. Nothing gets my blood boiling faster than a loudmouth elitist. There is no better or worse style of fishing for steelhead. Respect People's Property This has become a major problem on Lake Erie's tributaries. Every year more and more landowners have posted "No Trespassing" signs on their property because they're fed up with garbage left behind and a general lack of respect. If you come upon a posted property don't trespass. If you want to fish there, ask the landowner. If they say "no" respect their wishes. If they allow you, do something nice in return such as cleaning up garbage along the shore. Don't Litter Often when I'm fishing I see garbage everywhere. First of all it's pollutes the environment and it's an eyesore. Some sections of streams have been closed to fishing because landowners were fed up with garbage along their property. Make it a habit to pick up discarded monofilament, cans and other trash, and dispose of them properly. Questioning Anglers that Keep or Release Fish There is nothing wrong with keeping a fish. Likewise, there is nothing wrong with releasing your catch. If you see an angler release a nice size fish, it is considered rude to say "Aren't you going to keep that?" or "You should keep that one!". Give Others Space When Fighting A Fish Give other anglers enough room to land their catch. If it's necessary, take your line out of the water to give them some space. This may happen when you're fishing down river and another angler has to move down river to land a fish. Walk Quietly Around Others Be courteous to those already on the streams. Walk behind other anglers and out of the water if possible. If you must stay in the water, walk with minimum surface disturbance.

i like that brookie,

run about half what you would for bait and bulk shot your shots (ie 12 in from jig) and every 3 seconds give it a twich . pink and white are always hot colurs too

AMEN fidureight well said
