YEP.....same thing here off the boards....WOW, over 20# off walleye on one line....NICE...

When I heavily fished walleye tournaments here I always ran multiple lure rigs off my planer boards and down riggers....anything that resembles a school of bait fish will trigger more strikes then a single lure swimming by.....try reeling in TWO 6 lb walleyes caught off boards 150 feet plus out the back of the boat all while trolling 2 mph and keeping the other 5 lines going in 3 foot seas....LOL....you think for sure he have that 10+ lb walleye that will put you in the money only to find 2 six pounders you have to net... ...LOL

Wait a NY minute here.....you don't want to rush into anything here....it's mid winter...you have lots of time....so here's what you got to do....since I drink rum and love fine cigars and I'm not too far from you....I will bring the rum as I can get it far cheaper....while you can get the FINE Cigars (Cubans) and we will have a pow wow over this.....then after we are all liquored up we'll talk about this Smokercraft that your going to buy....we will then make a offer he can't refuse... ....Redneck style... Seriously, if the price is 12.5k for the Smokercraft.......then 12k will EASILY get it in mid winter in this LOUSY economy. Either way here's what BOAT translates out to: Brake Out Another Thousand OR A hole in the water you keep pouring money into.....

NEVER once did I hear someone say I wish I had a smaller outboard on my boat....but MANY times I have heard I wish I had more horse power sometimes.....with a growing family get the bigger rig.

Tell him Jer.....you're just trying to get back some that they stole from you all year long....

The pictures are posted, you just can't see them because of the fantastic job he did......

REAL PURDY Roy.........I make my own jigs also....use to make them for sale to local bait and tackle stores years ago....it's a nice hobby for the winter that buys a lot of fishing gear come spring.

I don't buy one......they cost too much....

Those quotes to "me" seem high but everything is more in Ontario....so you should keep shopping around... But you might as well get A/C while your doing it if you plan on staying there.

Once you price out the cost of the new furnace and labor AND oil tank removal you might reconsider replacing that blower motor.

As Mike Holmes would say...."It's against the code".... Heard that so many times watching his show I was convinced everything was against the "code" in Ontario....permit required to open the window.... My house, my land, I pay the taxes.....but everyone else tells you what you can and cannot do....that's when you realize you have too much government...

GREAT Ice Report.....nice pictures......THANKS for sharing... Roy, never had ling.....how do you cook it ?

It looks like it's coming along very nicely......do you have a launch date ?

I always like the Lowe boats but I never knew they were welded hulls....are all their hulls welded or just some of the newer models ???

Same here....I'm a G-Man.....Gmail and Google Chrome has been very good to me.....no issues whatsoever on this forum using Chrome....I try to stay away from anything (if you can) that has anything to do with Microsoft....biggest money sucking company in the WORLD.

And here I thought the cormorant thread was dead....

Normal vacations are really 9 days in a row off any ways......... When I worked on the railroad I got 6 weeks of vacation.....so come summer months I would take off 1 week (9 days) work the next week (5 days) take off the next week (9 days) work the next week (5 days) and keep doing that for the next 12 weeks or so....it was VERY easy going back to work after having off 9 days knowing you only have to work 5 days and you're off ANOTHER 9 days again and again and again...well you get the picture.....for anyone that can schedule it that way (employer permitting) I HIGHLY recommend trying it next summer....and you will then do it every summer from then on....

OK, you dangled the carrot out in front of us saying the great service this manufacture supplied to you....SO WHO BUILT THIS BOAT AND STOOD BEHIND IT SO WELL ?!?!?!?...after all you did say it NOT a Tracker Boat....enquiring anglers want to know....

Both are "sub"-par boat......get yourself a good GRUMMAN and be done with it.....only boat manufacture the makes both boats and planes so everyone here should be happy.... BTW it's a well know fact that Grumman owners at the best fishermen....so you may or may not qualify....LOL Bob

I don't believe Nipfisher the OP said that this is his fish but rather he see this pic somewhere and posted it...

At times....at times....

Skip you got me.....I'm NOT a E.T.A.W.N.C guy because I have no idea what one is....

If we want a good bird and don't feel like cooking one....we get a whole roasted chicken from Sam's Club....$4.88 and the bird is HUGE and delicious.... ...takes the wife and me 2-4 days to finish it off.

And here I didn't think Jesus would need advice....

You got a problem with that CC.... Don't make me come up there buddy boy ... :rofl2:
