Hey guys wondering if anyone knows anybody north of barrie that could rebuild a fiberglass transom or a section of it. I live all the way up in Timmins so the closer to there the better thanks everyone!

Mine is a 20 inch shaft unfortunately, but I do have a jackplate on it.

Brand New Optimaxes look like theyre around 20,000

Sorry let me correct myself 5 of the 6 cylinders were at 90 psi the other one was at 70. I wish I could get that 250 pro XS for that price but my boat is only rated for 200hp.

Well this season I noticed my boat running slower and harder starting than in years past. So sure enough I take it to the shop and its got 70 psi in one cylinder and 90 in all of the others. My mechanic tells me they are all pretty worn and obviously the 1 at 70 needs fixing. Its a 1999 200 hp mercury optimax and he quoted me at 9000$ to have it completly rebuilt. To me that seems a bit high, although I don't know too much about the price of rebuilding. Can anyone chime in? or maybe give me some other suggestions or people that do it cheaper? Or am I looking at spending that much wherever I go fora rebuild?

Timmins is almost always higher than anywhere around here. There is a lot of price fixing going on in this town, there is never one gas station cheaper than the other and they all drop their prices within an hour of each other when they do drop. A couple of years ago there was even an "investigation" by police about price fixing, but of course nothing would come from that.

99.9 all over in Timmins,ON price fixing at its absolute finest!

Those were walleye caught throughout the season! I rarely have more than 3 people on my boat at a time unless I'm guiding. Its a 19 foot tracker, not a lund!, and a lot of those eyes were released for another day! Nothing over 20" is kept in my boat in our area unless its going on the wall.

Absolutely I can show you around the lake. I do a little bit of guiding throughout the summer as well.

That Packers fan is me! tough loss Saturday, but need to be proud of the team how they fought in the playoffs with quite literally no receivers left for Rodgers to throw to.

A little mix of both, we usually had to experiment a bit each say sometimes they'd be hanging tight to bottom on structure while others they were suspended in the water column. Some of these were caught running crankbaits only 5 feet down over 30-40 ft of water.

Been a long time since I've posted on here! been very busy, but since I had some spare time today I decided to make a quick recap of our 2015 Walleye season and what a season it was! We had our best season yet for big quality Walleye.Fall was definitely the best time of the season for the big girls almost exclusively pulling crankbaits. The majority of these were caught on Horwood with the biggest being a giant 32" 13lb caught in mid October on a size 11 Berkley Flicker minnow! I apologize for the brief summary. I'll let you guys enjoy the photos instead. If anybody has questions about the walleye fishing on the bigger lakes up in this area I'd love to answer/help you guys out. Enjoy!

From Timmins, and was just driving around the area this evening. Still ice on the lakes but should be gone by the end of the first week in May.

Thanks Folks!
