Was it large or very small?

Have you got other batteries you can test the charger out on? It's strange that the charger would stop working all of a sudden. Are you sure they're connected properly? Those 1amp things should not be called chargers. They are battery maintainers at best. The best use I could think of for those is to have them connected to your topped up batteries during the off season to keep them from losing their charge.

Didn't you just ask that same question on another thread? Either way, good luck.

A true report. You're getting some quality time out there Dana. Enjoy all of it that you can. Thanks.

All the best to you, Chris. You've obviously thought long and hard on this and have made this decision based on you and your family's best interest and for that, you should be congratulated. You've been a good contributing member to this community of ours and you surely will be missed out on the water. Remember though that whether you're fishing or not, you're still a part of this community and are welcome to keep us updated on what's happening in your life. Good luck to you, Chris. Edited to add: It would really pain me to hear that you'd traded us in for a golf course though.

No one should be feeling badly about this thread being hypothetically locked. It only existed hypothetically to begin with.

Ol' Larry is getting to be a hero around these parts. Thanks Mike and Larry for the super (as usual) fishing pics.

UMMM, that would have put you under the western edge of it, Cliff. Was this a test? Did I win anything? A nice light show and no damage anywhere, that's perfect.

Congrats on the great family trip. The lad is a good fisherman...an excellent hockey fan too!

How come the three most active threads since 2:57 this afternoon are about dead fish? 1- Dumping fish remains into the lake. 2- Bowmanville Creek salmon run and 3- Bronte.

Only thing I can come up with is to get in touch with one of the anglers (hate the word "pro") sponsored by Bluewater. One of them is Greg Roth.

Better quit feeding that 30 pounder 24 volt meals. Might get acid reflux.

I know, this story is an old one but when I hear about hot sauces, this story more often than not comes to mind. Frank: "Recently, I was honored to be selected as a judge at a chili cooking contest. The original person called in sick at the last moment and I happened to be standing there at the judge's table asking for directions to the Coors Light truck, when the call came in. I was assured by the other two judges (native Texans) that the chili wouldn't be all that spicy and, besides, they told me I could have free beer during the tasting, so I accepted." Here are the scorecards from the advent: (Frank Judge #3) Chili # 1 Eddie's Maniac Monster Chili... Judge # 1 --! A little too heavy on the tomato. Amusing kick. Judge # 2 -- Nice, smooth tomato flavor. Very mild. Judge # 3 -- (Frank) What the hell is this stuff?! You could remove dried paint from your driveway. Took me two beers to put out the flames. I hope that's the worst one. These Texans are crazy! Chili # 2 Austin's Afterburner Chili... Judge # 1 -- Smoky, with a hint of pork. Slight jalapeno tang. Judge # 2 -- Exciting BBQ flavor; needs more peppers to be taken seriously. Judge # 3 -- Keep this out of the reach of children. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to taste besides pain. I had to wave off two people who wanted to give me the Heimlich maneuver. They had to rush in more beer when they saw the look on my face. Chili # 3 Ronny's Famous Burn Down the Barn Chili... Judge # 1 -- Excellent firehouse chili. Great kick. Needs more beans. Judge # 2 -- A beanless chili, a bit salty, good use of peppers. Judge # 3 -- Call the EPA. I've located a uranium spill. My nose feels like I have been snorting Drano. Everyone knows the routine by now. Get me more beer before I ignite. Barmaid pounded me on the back, now my backbone is in the front part of my chest. I'm getting pie-eyed from all of the beer... Chili # 4 Dave's Black Magic... Judge # 1 -- Black bean chili with almost no spice. Disappointing. Judge # 2 -- Hint of lime in the black beans. Good side dish for fish, or other mild foods; not much of a chili. Judge # 3 -- I felt something scraping across my tongue, but was unable to taste it. Is it possible to burn out taste buds? Sally, the barmaid, was standing behind me with fresh refills. That 300-lb. woman is starting to look HOT...just like this nuclear waste I'm eating! Is chili an aphrodisiac? Chili # 5 Lisa's Legal Lip Remover... Judge # 1 -- Meaty, strong chili. Cayenne peppers freshly ground, adding considerable kick. Very impressive. Judge # 2 -- Chili using shredded beef, could use more tomato. Must admit the cayenne ! peppers make a strong statement. Judge # 3 -- My ears are ringing, sweat is pouring off my forehead, and I can no longer focus my eyes. I farted and four people behind me needed paramedics. The contestant seemed offended when I told her that her chili had given me brain damage. Sally saved my tongue from bleeding by pouring beer directly on it from the pitcher. I wonder if I'm burning my lips off. It really pisses me off that the other judges asked me to stop screaming. Screw those rednecks. Chili # 6 Pam's Very Vegetarian Variety... Judge # 1 -- Thin, yet bold vegetarian variety chili. Good balance of spices and peppers. Judge # 2 -- The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers, onions, a! nd garlic. Superb. Judge # 3 -- My intestines are now a straight pipe filled with gaseous, sulphuric flames. I pooped on myself when I farted and I'm worried it will eat through the chair! No one seems inclined to stand behind me anymore. I need to wipe my butt with a snow cone. Chili # 7 Carla's Screaming Sensation Chili... Judge # 1 -- A mediocre chili with too much reliance on canned peppers. Judge # 2 -- Ho-hum; tastes as if the chef literally threw in a can of chili peppers at the last moment. **I should take note that I am worried about Judge # 3. He appears to be in a bit of distress, as he is cursing uncontrollably. Judge # 3 -- You could put a grenade in my mouth, pull the pin, and I wouldn't feel a thing. I've lost sight in one eye, and the world sounds like it is made of rushing water. My shirt is covered with chili, which slid unnoticed out of my mouth. My pants are full of lava to match my shirt. At least during the autopsy, they'll know what killed me. I've decided to stop breathing; it's too painful. Screw it; I'm not getting any oxygen anyway. If I need air, I'll just suck it in through the 4-inch hole in my stomach. Chili # 8 Karen's Toenail Curling Chili... Judge # 1 -- The perfect ending, this is a nice blend chili. Not too bold, but spicy enough to declare its existence. Judge # 2 -- This final entry is a good, balanced ! chili. Neither mild, nor hot. Sorry to see that most of it was lost when Judge # 3 farted, passed out, fell over, and pulled the chili pot down on top of himself. Not sure if he's going to make it. Poor fella, wonder how he'd have reacted to really hot chili?" Judge # 3 -- Oh God.........

In 10 minutes, the water temp must have dropped 7-8 degrees eh?

It's over. Quick, pitch a few under that dock! There must be hundreds of smallies under there right now!

Bob Artis, 69, of County Road...well maybe in this case it could have.

It could be worse. He could be doing time with some scum who copied a Teletubbies DVD for his 3 year old.

The org. who issued you the original will be able to sell you copies IF they are still in business.

Carry the original on you. It's not you're in danger of losing an important document. If you ARE worried about losing it, you can buy as many replacement cards as you wish for $5 a piece.

Have a super trip. Lotsa pics for us shut-ins please.

Have a great trip. Catch lots. You're lucky, we probably won't get fall till the 23rd around here.

You could at least buy it a few drinks and supper first....

I'd help you but I don't fish the Cornwall area at all. If I were you I'd buy my bait somewhere there and have a talk with the baitshop people. Good luck.

I take Moniques.

Good stuff! Looks like a good place to wade too.
