And canoes are potentially hazardous to women.......

Ya, welcome aboard me son. Say something so we know who you are at least. We especially would enjoy pics of you outfishing brudder number one. (They shouldn't be hard to come by)

Fish or no fish, it was good that you got out. And yes, Cheryl seems to need an Asperin. Thanks for sharing your day, Maureen.

The parents are lucky too, Moe. To paraphrase....the more they worked at being a family, the luckier they got.

No worries, English. Glad to have your input and welcome to the board.

You're right Terry. When you're talking that kind of unit, $55 doesn't add up to a hill of beans. Re-sale is better too.

Jeez Keram, looks like you both had a great time. And look at the stuff in that boat! You look like Tim the toolman Taylor. (bless your little heart)

Great colours on that fish, Matt. Congrats to you.

Well, that report added sunshine to my rainy day here. Thanks for taking the time to post of your adventure, Mike. Great pics too! Glad you had a peaceful time.

All I know is that if my J ever needed a specialist for any kind of a medical problem and the Canadian system couldn't help her NOW, you be seeing us at the NY or VT border to pay for what she needed pdq.

You'll love the power on that unit, Rich. As for the transducer question, the dual frequency will only ever be useful if you'll be doing off-shore fishing. In fact, I just looked up what Lowrance has to say about that. "Dual-frequency 50/200 kHz units are specifically designed for saltwater angling or tracking downriggers in the Great Lakes due to the capability of reading deeper and wider with the 50 kHz frequency. For superior inland and freshwater performance, single-frequency 200 kHz units are recommended due to the superior definition and target separation." Good luck.

I hope your dad catches the biggest fish of his life, Doug. ps. Hope you brought a laptop in case any of us needs technical advice about anything.

Thanks for the report Steelcat. Looks like you had a full day out there with lots of fish. I especially liked their creative way of spelling Peterborough on the tournament board.

Must have been a heck of a party.

Paul, for Pete's sake, if you have a kilt, you're invited to Marc's pool.

Hey Darren...while you're in the mood, I'm sending you a PM too.

Thanks Pete. Remind me the next time you're up here to whack you in the shins. Jamie, nice T-shirt. Is it your Mom's?

I should have a look at them but the best quality ones I've seen so far are the Ospreys and Jef's baits.....beautiful work on both baits.

Love is in the air.....

I kinda like Pete Frampton. That wasn't one of his best album covers though.

You did good Emil. Congrats!

Yes you were missed at the get together Gary but you'll be there next year. You just look after YOU and all will be fine. Glad you're on the mend.

A great report Don, and in three part harmony no less. It was a pleasure seeing you and Ruth again this year and seeing young Tyler for the first time. You have some wonderful pictures there. Thanks for sharing.

And another thing. The average age for a child to leave home nowadays is 34. Do you have any idea how difficult it'll be for you to find Halloween costumes at that age?

Congrats to you and you wife, Rich. You know, we tend to think that we are going to raise a child and make them into the best human person that we can. What really happens is that we all grow together and little (for the time being) Ethan, over the years will transform you and your wife into the best human persons you could be. Great, great news.
