I like frog legs too. They don't really have much taste...most people just smother them in garlic butter anyway. The only thing I really don't like about having frog legs is sending the poor little buggers home in those little wheelchairs.

My condolences on the loss of your Mother and your Bud, Dave.

Great report, Bernadette. Some excellent fish there too. All three of you must have been happy spending the weekend together like that. And, as corny as this may sound, I'm sure that Sonny had a hand in that trip and might even have helped with the catching part. Thanks for sharing and please don't be a stranger.

I know, Brian. Buying a centerpin will do that to guys.

*Adds this thread to the yearly draw barrel*

Brian, didn't you buy new boots last year?

Please don't try to read things into this thread that don't exist, Paul. This whole thread was a gag to begin with and a few people didn't understand it. It was explained and now all is good.

I think he's only on his first coffee, Mike. Happy Birthday you old boot!

Keep at it, we'll be red necklace.

Go back to counting your Cheerios, redneck. I've been here since 3am.

Bigcreekdad, with no disrespect intended, this whole thread is a running gag. It's been going on for as long as the Dutch fish hit the web.

I didn't see any vents in there Skinny. Is that thing airtight? And Fisherman is right about the element. I usually soak my chips but just so they might last a little longer.

Loblaws took it. President's Choice eh?

I'm sure that Lew could pipe in with some good tips here cause I know he uses them quite a lot. For the time being though, there's some decent info HERE!

Winds on Simcoe don't look too pleasant at all but I'm sure that there are places one can find where it'll be a little calmer. Good luck wherever you go.

Chris! Dat's bootiful! At first I did think it was a tunable duck call though. I'm planning my next Rod order though.

It sure was Dan. On 8lb mono. Can you believe that? The dude was apparently targeting walleyes.

That smile says it all.....right now it's saying HERNIA!

You could also part your Johnsons out and buy a Minnkota or MotorGuide. During the winter would be a good time to do that.

Yeah...No fish in Temagami eh Terry? Lloyd's a small dude...makes the laker look big.

Hang on to them a little longer Dan. Just think of the lads' educations!

Are you sure? The complete set will probably include a two piece camo bikini. edited: Oh wait, sorry...Baby La La can use it I guess.

We don't have any left unfortunately but we're working on something and will give everyone a heads up when the time comes. Thanks for asking.

My only advice for your boat is the following. Most boats are made using anodized aluminum so if you scrub your hull with any sort of abrasive cleaner, the surface will have lost its protective qualities. The more you clean it the more it will need cleaning. Your best bet will be to wash the hull with a good soap then pressure wash it. Some marks will remain but hey, it just shows character. This is assuming that your hull is unpainted. The painted parts of the boat can be washed as you would wash your car then waxed with marine grade wax. Hope this helps. Someone else may chime in with advice here.

Jimmie Johnson eh? I'm telling Phaneuf. Sounds like another great year with your buds there Dan. Some super pics again this year too. That tent back there looks massive! Looks as though you could have another track, grandstand and all in there! Really glad you had a good time.
