It appears as though some of you want this thread locked as well. It ain't gunna happen...not by me at least. I'd like to apologize, personally for some of the behaviour on this thread.

Looks like basil...should have thrown a tomato and a clove of garlic in there.

That is one spectacular fish no matter WHOSE ruler you're using. Congrats to the folks who braved the elements to bring us this monster and also for putting her back where she lives. Just beautiful!

It'll be great seeing you and your dad again Todd. Safe trip home.

Cabela's it is, Nemo.

I think those rumours are wrong Smokey. But, that's just my opinion.

It doesn't really matter what the exact size of that fish is. It's just a great fish and anyone who has what it takes to get out there and at least try at this time of the year is to be commended. Congrats to you and thank you for posting it. I'm sure you'll have better memories than a guy like me who spent most of the day indoors.

I have no info at all Tonka...it's just become routine. Let's just wait till the pics show up. I wish him/her/them all the luck.

Let's just wait till the pic(s) come out folks. These same two guys post a 'record' every year. Yes, they are nice fish....some of them even live through it. Let's wait for the pics and stats. I hope it's as nice as they say it is.

Speaking of Pete Maina, he has a low profile muskie reel now. I don't own one (yet) but I casted with one all day one day this summer and I was impressed. It's the same price as the round reel. That'll be on the list in my next dealings with BPS.

Some really respectable fish there Bob. Congrats to you. Out of curiosity, was there a range of year classes in there or were they all in the same size class? Wonderbread....as in Reef Runners? Thanks for sharing that.

Marcus, you might want to review your last posts before you post something like this. All through the month of November you've been telling us that you've never been to Erindale.

I've got a few pics of GCD working but they aren't worth anything. Now if they were autographed!

Good stuff Senator! Can we please have an aerial shot of that? I just want to know what you're trying to spell on your lawn.

Yes, our community is doing really well. It's thanks to everyone here and a special thanks to all of the new members who seem to integrate and participate so much in everything that happens here. Good stuff!

Happy bird day to all of my sudden friends. Hope you all a super day. I pray for safe return of any kin who are off to foreign lands for whatever reason.

You're making a mountain out of a mole hill. This is what actually happened. November 26th, 2008 Carleton University Students’ Association moves to reverse decision on Shine-A-Rama (Ottawa) – Carleton University Students’ Association President Brittany Smyth has indicated that CUSA council will revisit the motion to change the orientation program charity from Shine-A-Rama. “It has become clear that there is not an appetite at Carleton to change from Shine-A-Rama,” said Ms. Smyth. “The responsible thing to do is to reverse the decision.” While the motion merely stated the students’ association would investigate switching to another charity, students have made it clear that they do not want the change. “I both respect and admire the students’ commitment to the cause of raising funds for cystic fibrosis,” stated Ms. Smyth. “I believe this issue has been blown out of proportion but the motion was never meant to imply that raising funds for Cystic Fibrosis research was not a worthwhile cause. I do apologize for the negative attention Carleton has received”. It's business as usual folks.

I've seen her casting before. Very nice Dan...almost like a choreographed ballet out there.

HERE's a link to the auction forum. Thanks very much for your help folks.

You can just post them to the forum in the morning my friend.

There'll be an auction forum up in the morning. Thanks everyone.

Thank you Dave. Very generous of you. Yes TJ, I also consider Rick a close friend and will do whatever I can to help out. I'll have something for the auction also within the next few hours.

They included a cover when I bought mine. You should be fine with a tarp duct taped around it. ps. I also take the breaker out so that it can never end up fighting with the furnace.

Thanks for that Peter.

Yup, that's your man for snowshoes. You can visit the site HERE! He ain't a bad dude to deal with either.
