  1. Until they slam into a family out for a drive & doing the speed limit.
  2. Lake St. Clair down near Windsor
  3. Great video Mike and congrats to your son an a very nice fish.
  4. A very good friend of mine was killed on 35 just south of Lindsay about 30 years ago. He was heading north at midnight going to his cottage at Dunsford when a car came around the bend on the wrong side of the road and hit him head on. My friend was decapitated and the other car rolled into the ditch, exploded and killed the 4 occupants in that car. Police estimated the other car was doing 80 MPH when they hit and autopsies showed they were all hammered after sitting in a local pup all day & evening.
  5. You've got that right Bill, no matter what they do somebody is gonna say their in the wrong. It's a tough job and coppers have my full respect for what they do.
  6. If cops chase the speeders and crap happens, the cops are at fault. If they don't chase them and they get away, folks say they aren't doing their job.
  7. Sounds like you had a great trip up there Chris, beautiful spot too from the looks of it.
  8. The last couple days I've been going waaaay back to the early pages of this board in 2006. Seems to me this is the 3rd reincarnation of OFC since I joined up in 2002. Hard to believe how many of the old members have moved on and I've been reading posts from guys I haven't thought of in years. We've also sadly had a few of our members pass away, including my brother who posted as eddyk, and it's sure strange to read their posts from days gone by. Lots of great reading from back then. ***** Edit to add I originally typed OF ENN but it keeps changing to OFC
  9. Sounds like a real enjoyable trip Matt and always good when you can meet up with some new fishing buds.
  10. Nope were alright George, our Premier said their gonna have the insurance companies drop our rates 15% this year and we all know the Liberals have never lied to us before.
  11. Ya never know what you might drag up off the bottom LOL
  12. Bunks for me, takes no time at all to load or unload.
  13. And speaking of trailer tires and if you haven't done it yet, be sure the lug wrench for your truck wheels also fits the lugs on your trailer wheels, because they don't always. You don't want to be stranded on the side of the hiway because you can't get the lugs off.
  14. Sounds like your really enjoying your summer Brian !!
  15. All the best to you Roy
  16. Never saw Maverick but always enjoyed Rockford Files
  17. Thanks Dave, I wasn't sure how that worked.
  18. Hey Dave, if someone has an accident but claims they weren't using the phone or text, can you still tell it they actually were ??
  19. Be good if they could come up with something that would disable the car as soon as you hit a text button. Wishful thing I spose.
  20. The current can get very strong at times Paul and your right, you need to show alot of respect for the power of that river.
  21. Your absolutely right Paul, it's a nice river but can get nasty sometimes and if your not properly set up it can be downright dangerous. We we're trolling for musky by the railway bridge near the Peace Bridge in an 18' glass boat one December when the water boiled up underneath the boat and spun us nearly around. Smaller boat could have been very bad.
  22. Yeah, me too Dave.....NOT
  23. Being retired is a tough life Dave
  24. I really like that one Bushart. My Dad grew up on a small farm in Saskatchewan in the 30's and they pulled the plow with a team of Clydesdales and as soon as I saw your painting I thought of him. Used to know the name of his horses but darned if I can think of them now, but it seems to me one was Tess.
  25. Big chunky fish ya got yourself there Dave, very nice.
