Exploring The Ogoki Outback - A Trip To Mojikit Lake
pics replied to solopaddler's topic in General Discussion
Wow, what a great trip! Some days it's ok to go back to bed when the weather turns..lol.. last year when moose hunting we had 9 rainy/windy days out of 11.. cabin fever!! Big water usually means big pike so I'm sure there are lots around.. thanks for the report -
95% of cops are great but these days with social media and cameras the bad ones are exposed pretty quickly. The cop had no reason to kill it the way he did. I had an old dog that would sometimes wander if I accidentally left my gate open... I would be devastated if she died that way..

I certainly wouldn't want to work with anyone who is either drunk or stoned.. it's just too dangerous! The whole drug and alcohol thing came out of the US headquarters along with a ban on toasters,hot plates, etc.. Being treated like children was their way of preventing lawsuits but they never understood that our culture is different than theirs not to mention we really don't sue our employers like they do in the states... I'm not too big on the idea of full legalization at the moment... will people be able to smoke it while in public places?? What age will limit will apply?? Not that it isn't already widely available for them....

Can't wait for this!!

I have vertigo and pot could help but currently my employer believes that you are impaired up to 28 days after smoking it. They only do post incident testing but an incident could be anything from a simple emission release to being caught sleeping during your lunch break... A positive test would result in a locker, vehicle search and a lengthy suspension/rehab followed by random tests for a year and last chance letter. They obviously subscribe to more Conservative beliefs about pot....

I don't believe that it will get better for the average Joe no matter who's in charge. The global economy is bad for us Canadians . With housing prices as high as they are, incomes need to be high as well. They have been going down relative to our costs but we have to be " competitive " don't we? More free trade seems to mean lower wages for all but a few lucky ones. No party has the answer to this problem do they?? We used to turn raw materials into value added products to export in the past but all too often today we just ship the raw materials to third world countries that in turn sell us products we should make for ourselves... Good luck Justin..

Shhh.. if you tell everyone about the deals out there It gets around fast.. too fast for me to get in on them... look what happened with the Plano boxes at dollarama..try to find some now..lol

I used to be a Harper supporter but after his party abandoned the US Steel workers and manufacturing in general in favor of the oil patch, I gave up on him. Not to mention the reduction in protection for our lakes and rivers that we love so much.. there's just too much to list..

I don't mind the quiet night either.. just push and charge the ovens according to the schedule with no interuptions.. Either way it's dark when I go to work and when I go home..

Who is this middle class I hear them spout about?

I'm in the thick of the US Steel fiasco as are a few good members here.. The one positive is that we have some of the best facilities in North America..we just need someone to properly run them.. As for the guys currently running for government, I see no one that I can say for sure that I support.. We have Harper spewing bull about his coveted child care benefit money but it's taxed as income anyways and with my type of luck it will bump me into the next tax bracket .. the spin goes on and on... I will support anyone who stands up for the average guy while telling corporations what to do..not the other way around as it is now -

Somehow we have been fooled into thinking that a lot of middle class manufacturing jobs pay too much. Therefore it's ok that the jobs move south or to China in the eyes of many. These are the people who built this country!! I recently looked at a pay stub from 7 years ago and I was 10 thousand dollars ahead back then!.. -
I found them by the hundreds up where we bow hunt for moose.. all small with the biggest about the size of a ping pong ball. Traveling behind another atv resulted in facefulls of green dust from the mature ones..

Check on the side of the tire for the pressure. My trailer tire calls for 50 lbs.. the tire on my pop up trailer wants 80 lbs

Grouse is very good.. pound the breast flat and roll in bread crumbs with parmesean cheese and fry in butter... Spruce Grouse isn't my favorite though..

She may already have a buyer.. could be family or friends or even a client looking to buy.. Determine what you want and if the agent won't agree, there are lots of others who will..

Lake St. Joseph: Big Water - Big Pike - And A Walleye Beat Down!

One other thing.. how the heck does an operator build such nice camps so far into the wilds?? The docks alone beat the ones at camps along the highways.. -
Lake St. Joseph: Big Water - Big Pike - And A Walleye Beat Down!

I haven't yet watched the videos but what a trip.. I don't think I would feel too comfortable on such big water so far from civilization .. -
Pro sports leaves a bit of a bad taste in my mouth . With baseball you have rich teams basically buying championships since there is no real salary cap.. The NFL is a money making machine that holds cities hostage in order to get new stadiums, some of which get replaced even before taxpayers pay for it .. as for hockey, Gary Bettman insists on putting teams where they have no business case.. the maple leafs tampering with the city selection process to prevent Hamilton from entering the league ... It goes on and on.. money ruins sports... kind of why I like the CFL.. players in it for the love of the game, certainly not for the money..

I hope his family finds peace once they see the place he loved so dearly..

I had a cottage in Kinmount and the family that owned the 1000 acres around the us were the biggest worry for theft.. it's likely a local that makes a living from theft. I would put up a spy point camera that has a remote receiver for the SD card. That way you can tell who did it even if they destroy or take the camera..

Wow, it's about time but there will be dissenters for sure..

Minnow traps were $6.. not bad.. some of their prices were a little higher to start at.. I also picked up a battery box( the larger one) for $11.. -
All this political talk makes my head spin!! ..when I was visiting my cousin in PEI we got a tip off to where Duffys cottage was...very underwhelming to say the least.. just a typical cottage bungalow, nothing that would stand out that's for sure

Rush lake is pretty small compared to head lake.. neither has great fishing from what I've heard..
