  1. They had about the same number of Canadian players but Vancouver relied on europeans for their top lines....they got hit and it threw them off their game....Thomas played brilliantly while luongo was inconsistant.........
  2. The fines levied by the CO's goes to the province as general revenue, not to the MNR....They have limits on how far they can travel and with the offices spaced so far apart, they patrol the hotspots nearest to the home base......
  3. If you plan to use worms, take them up with you..It will be much cheaper to buy them here
  4. Go to Caledonia or Cayuga before the walleye season opens and you'll see lots of them taken home....There's no particular race doing it...just a bunch of guys who poach and seem to get away with it......I still don't have much faith in the CO's ability to police the huge areas they have with such small budgets...More political pressure is needed....Government workers keep growing in numbers except at the MNR, which is shrinking....
  5. I always love to see younger ones with such an interest...be sure to get some of your buddies hooked so you always have someone for a partner.....then once you start to drive you'll have someone to split the gas costs with
  6. The Grand river below Cayuga or Dunnville.....
  7. Up there almost any body of water will have fish!!!
  8. Toyota Trucks are made in Texas...I have a Chev Colorado and I wouldn't recommend it just because of the brake design that most shops don't want to deal with....a cheap shop will probably be $1000 just for rotors and pads...
  9. There are a hundred kids in their program and at least 25 of them show up at the centre for breakfast each day...otherwise they would sit at school hungry....I would rather they get hooked on fishing than the alternative....
  10. We never got sick days...if you are sick, you can take the day off without pay but you have to have a note from the doctor...that can be hard to do when you work in a 24hr 365day industry...try to get to your doctor an a sunday....If the posties strike i won't miss the bills but don't mess with my Ontario Out of Doors.....
  11. That kid with "the pants" caught his first fish and he was not cool with getting close to it...the girl was fine with it....lol....I think if he was offered a belt he would refuse...once again..not cool.. Next year we have to get some snacks!! 10 minutes off the bus and they're asking for lunch.....
  12. The annual Binbrook Crappie Derby took place Sunday and while this goes on we bring a busload of kids from the Eva Rothwell centre in Hamilton out for some fishing..We give them all a fishing rod and a bit of tackle...This year we had 36 show up and many were trying out the fishing thing for the first time ever...chaotic but fun..The kids were very well behaved to say the least!!! They fished for three hours, had as much lunch as they wanted, then headed back to the city dirty, sometimes wet, but happy!! Many thanks to my fellow Glanbrook Conservation Committee members, Fishing World and the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority.....
  13. I'm out on the street due to a lock out because we won't agree to shaft 9000 pensioners...2000 of which are widows....heavy industry claims a lot of lives due to dangerous working conditions, various cancers etc...and I wouldn't want to be in this without a union....our managers put us in some deadly situations to try to speed things up, one that resulted in a fellow worker with second degree burns...if he had inhaled when he was engulfed in flames he would be dead....I used to hate unions until I started to work for the morons I work for now.....
  14. It's funny how people say unions suck but how many know how much the average worker has benefited from the gains in health and safety/working hours/minimum standards etc,etc... These weren't gifts from the government given just because they liked us...In 1946, workers at stelco got 2 weeks off after 25 years of service...today you get that after a year...if the big corporations had their way, we would go back to 46....I don't always agree with what the public sector unions ask for because they tend to be greedy with public tax dollars...There seems to be a race to the bottom these days with the average home price at 250-300 thousand and wages dropping and failing to even keep up with inflation...The hate should be directed at the ones who started the big recession and economic collapse in 2008...big banks and corporations took government bailouts ,then gave themselves big bonuses......watch the movie inside job to get some perspective.....
  15. I wouldn't use it...I bought a Canadian made Napolean 8 years ago and I'm good to go for another 5 or 10...The chinese junk at the major retailers will have a much shorter life...stainless should not rust!!!
  16. Get the gas for #15 from a CEO's big SUV and you win twice.....
  17. While it looks like a great place, the price of almost $600 for the flight and $495pp per night is a little beyond my budget... for that price you could go to BC for salmon...
  18. Canola all the way...if you are going to deep fry on a regular basis it's the best for your heart and health....otherwise if you only do it a few times a year, lard would be ok..........
  19. Conservation areas were often created to manage water levels after Hurricane Hazel. They then created a monster by offering more and more ammenities. The Government then told them they were going to fund just the water management part of it. THAT'S how they come up with the charge to get in!!! I guess in Quebec our tax dollars make everything seem free..." user pay " is here!! I hate the high fees as well...
  20. It just seems dumb to me to own a truck like that....but then again if I had a tricked out boat, someone would say "it's a dumb idea to own something like that...." Imagine that hitting a Honda Fit...
  21. Google Basa CTV report.... you may not want to eat it again....same thing goes for Tilapia.. Chicken liver should be cheap..every time you cook a turkey or chicken, freeze the liver on a non stick surface and when solid put it in a bag...then you have a supply that isn't a big lump....
  22. I believe they stock Kelso... Christie Conservation area near Dundas has stocked trout ponds but it's a bit pricy to get in....
  23. My linkIf you're looking for a cheap canoe rental, try wagjag Hamilton...Beach Marine has a one, two and seven day canoe rental deals for $10,20 and 40 respectively....only one more day for this deal....
  24. Check out the seafoam website...looks to be a good product for outboards..
