  1. Testing the boat tonight and when I turn on the humminbird it flashed on and off. I have cleaned all of the connections, tried my regular battery and gel cell...same result. Any suggestions or is this a great excuse to upgrade lol
  2. Makes me think of Nipissing, Scugog and many other lakes. Enforced?
  3. Anyone know if Wolseley Bay on the French is opened up yet? Heading up for a week on the 16th.
  4. Thanks. I used the same diameter.
  5. Thank you! Just did it and works great!
  6. Hi there, I want to move my gas tank to the front of the boat for better weight distribution. The hose is about a foot too short. Is there an easy way I can extend the fuel line? Thanks in advance!
  7. I've had a pike smash my trolling motor when I was pulling it up. Scared the crap outta me!
  8. I have a Yamaha F20 and want to run some seafoam through it. Do you just add it to the gas 2oz per gallon?
  9. Just read that the Corolla is rated for 1,500 lbs! Might be a good option for someone with a small boat!
  10. Thanks!
  11. I have a 14ft princecraft superfisherman lx with a yamaha f20. How much do you think the package weighs? Also have a bow mount with 2 batteries.
  12. Lots of great advice and lots to try out! Thanks!!!
  13. Hi all. There is a spot on the French River I have been to which is an outflow to rapids (i.e very strong current). Any advice on how to fish this? Thanks in advance!
  14. 226. I work for Loblaw and have for 9 years (great company to work for!). As part of the competition bureau review, they were required to close a very small number of locations before the acquisition would be approved. In my experience (and I am just an average worker), Loblaw has done a great job at caring about community. Would not have happened if it didnt have to.
  15. Hi there, I am looking for some family campground recommendations. It will be myself and my 3 sons 8, 6 and 4. Looking for somewhere where they can play, fish (I have a boat) and overall just have a great time. I am currently booked at Golden Beach Resort on Rice Lake, but have read some reviews that are making me nervous about going there. I live in Brampton...anything within a few hours is fine. Thanks in advance!!
  16. I have a 14 ft princecraft with a 2011 20hp yamaha 4 stroke. With just me (and I am a hefty guy at 260), I get top end of 30 km/ph. Seems slow to me. Boat is max rates for 20hp. Thoughts?
  17. I hired Erik 9 years ago before he was as popular. Exact same experience! I can vouch to say money well spent.
  18. Many positive thoughts Lew.
  19. Sweet ride!!! Congrats!
  20. Didnt want to hijack the other thread. I was up on the French (Wolseley Bay) last week for the week. Fishing was tough. I picked up about 10 eyes for the week and all were caught with bottom bouncers and worm harness in about 40 ft of water. So the question: I marked a TON of fish suspended at around 40-50 ft in the 60-80ft depth range. Would a dipsy be a good thing to try? Is there a good tutorial article or video on how to use them? I run braid. Thanks in advance!
  21. Gorgeous fish and great shots of them!!! Congrats!
  22. If rods were to fail immediately (one or two uses) then I guess I should expect a car to fail on a test drive. I had a Compre break after using it several times and I can assure you it has been babied. Defects dont have to be immediate to exist.
  23. My latest Compre was used on 3 fishing trips. I baby my rods like they are one of my kids. On the 4th trip it snapped between the lead guide on a 1/2 pound walleye.
  24. I can understand the change somewhat. I guy has a rod for 30 years, snaps it to get a new one....but a 1 year warranty?!?! Please. At least give a 5 year to show you stand behind your product. I have always owned nothing but Shimano, and have had some warrantied too, but this will make me think twice about buying another. I can buy 10 cheaper rods for the price of one of their higher end and I also believe that a quality reel does more than a quality rod.
