..great caesar's ghost (or other Ron Burgundy statement of exclamation) what a fish!

those are some beauts! nice catch.

somebody's gonna need a lot of loonies

just back your beater into his vehicle and call it even

too late, didn't end up bringing the boat. Good luck to everyone who gets out there

try a search on this board. I seem to recall someone last year or the year before posting all kinds of smallies through the ice

I've ice fished at our cottage near Parry Sound regularly around Dec 15, but I think we'll be a bit behind that this year. Dec 27 for Cooks Bay

ya I did smile while I was typing that one

"I would not want to be the people living here" she says. Did you see the homes?? Shoot the dang bird and move in, gorgeous neighbourhood. Probably a guard bird to keep fowl-fearing fruitcakes out

thanks denis, I'll check it out tomorrow before we head out to see if its worth taking the boat

sounds like Saturday is a write-off in other words. Thanks for the update

Heading down from Barrie this week-end to the Niagara area. Should I be bringing the boat to get a few or 5 hours of fishing in or is the river all dirty? I've been checking the forecasts in that area and sounds like its been kind of windy.

...so as long as my aunt Jackie would live if she stopped eating

...and they live how long on this diet of nothing?

no tranks, I'll keep my 500 clams

We had the same thing a few months back with one of our cats and here's what we did. Gave the cat to an aquaintance. Once the kids noticed (next day!)we told them that he had gone to live with a friend because she really needed a good cat like him, but that we could visit any time they wanted. After a couple of times of stalling, we then did go visit him. Go figure, the new owner was allergic so we took him back after a few weeks. Wife put him on kijiji, found a new owner, and we asked that person if we could come visit once in a while. New owner said that was fine (who would deprive a kid!). We actually lost her contact info in the meantime, but the kids don't bring it up too often about going to visit (once every couple of weeks?) and when they do my wife is pretty good at distracting them. We do give the kids "updates" every once in a while about how much patches loves his new home. It has gone far better than we would have guessed, because they know they can go visit...and we would have done it by now had we not lost her info!

my cat is named "Zippy the Pinhead Cat"...although most often just gets Zip or Zipzap for short. Cat went nuts first time it heard "Pinhead" by the Ramones, hence the name

make a jesse james comment and 5 bucks says she tears you a new one

man I hate seeing ads after I've already bought

sorry to hear that Mike, sounds like you were fortunate to have a great father

wow what a collection of fish! Nicely done

...yes because when the playoffs begin and the Leafs are golfing you'd hate for him to miss a tee time

yes, probably only the two of them would have made it back to shore

every time I get one early I joke that I should just go home because the rest of the day will bring nothing (and most often its unfortunately true)

not today skippy. Bazaar at the kids school. Gotta see if anyone is bidding on the guided musky adventure I'm donating (the bad news for the successful bidder is I'm the guide )
