  1. Happy BDay!!!
  2. Hmpfff! I spoke to him early last summer and he had a good chuckle about it. Ol' Jerry couldn't get it in the boat by himself and had help from him and the OPP officer on the boat took a pic. I'm going to see him over the next couple of weeks and I will refresh his memory. He isn't the nicest of guys to those he doesn't know. Ask irish about that.
  3. Aikmans in mississauga. Near dundas and hwy 10.
  4. On Friday we had one of our neighbours come up with his two boys aged 5 and 3 to HH. His oldest rode without training wheel for the first time. We hit a little secluded beach I know for a bit before heading back to drown a couple of worms. The youngest caught a sunfish and small perch quickly before his big brother caught a decent worlds greatest sportfish (rock bass). The kids had a ton of fun with my girls and it was great to help a couple of young boys catch their first fish.
  5. Beautiful body of water. I am planning on going thru the locks early one day and hitting GPool for some skis.

    Garbage

    All it takes is to pick up after yourself and to pick up one or two other pieces of trash and you will be able to see a big improvement in our environment. People that are lazy, and I used to be one should not leave a mess everywhere they go, plain and simple. There are plenty of trash receptacles all over the place, USE THEM!!! As for dog owners that don't pick up after their dogs, they are boneheads as well, it takes one second to reach down and scoop it up. If I don't have a bag with me, I go back to get it.
  7. I agree with Lew. There's musky and then there is bait or dinner. Mind you though, a big pike is fun to tussle with.
  8. Nice fat cats!!!! You are a shadow of your former self. Good for you. Keep up the reports.
  9. Been a while since I've seen that many pickeral caught in one outing. Nice job Bernie!!!
  10. Check for vacuum leaks before you spend any more money. When its cold spray intake cleaner at all rubber fittings and around the throttle body and intake manifold. If it starts to idle faster when spraying an area, BINGO there is a leak. Its pretty old so I think you'll find quite a few. Get it squared away and keep her going.
  11. Nice. We will call you Bumble Bee!!!
  12. Don't tighten too much. Hitting a rock can make a tight prop nut a total bear to get off. Snug is good enough.
  13. What's happening with it?? Did you get it looked at?? Did they cut off your finger and if so I hope you took a video to share......... Let us know because I'm sure a few people have had it happen and would like to know what to look for.
  14. Kariba foods on Brimley north of Kingston rd in Scarborough, I'm pretty sure they do public cash and carry. Call before you head there to make sure.
  15. Iboats.com forums.
  16. The 150 fish lure is the one you stock up on. I've got the Lucky Strike with the flattish bottom and it's been great. My musky net is a Stowmaster, that one, I love!! Go to a store with a huge selection and check out the various nets and pick one that has the most features that you like.
  17. Could be a dirty carb, could be plugs as well. Those old 2strokes didn't like to troll for long periods. Check the plugs, they could be fouled already. Run some seafoam thru it and then put the rest in the fuel tank. Another thing, check the pickup in the fuel tank, those old ones don't like ethanol.
  18. Good to hear it's sorted out!! Now finish your rigging and get that thing SLIMED!!!!
  19. Go see your doc. It's likely what Bill said,you have a piece still in there and it is probably infected. Get it looked at, in the meantime, soak it 3 times a day in some warm salted water to help draw any infection out.
  20. There is a French river depth chart available from navCanada, it covers from the west arm of Nippissing to well west of the Chaudiere dam. I'm not sure of the chart number but you could look it up.
  21. I use 50lb test fluro for pike. Never even close to a breakoff on one of my rigs and they have brought in some nice fatties over the past couple of years. San diego jam knot, use that and you are golden. Google it.
  22. Put one foot in front of the other each day and keep on trucking. Have a positive attitude, that will help you through some bad times, but having worked in sales, you know that.
  23. When you remove the old impeller, ALWAYS piece it together, any missing pieces will be in the motor somewhere and need to be removed befor going out again or you may run into a major (read: expensive) problem with a potential overheat. You may need to start taking it apart. Check on iboats.com, you should be able to get some help there.
  24. Nice chunky 'skis!! No wonder you young'uns head up there.
  25. I see your future clearly now.... You will be spending a lot of time and money on musky fishing. LOL
