  1. I'm sure glad I never took up river fishing, seems all you guys ever do is fight & argue amongst each other.
  2. Here ya go
  3. It'll take me 10 minutes to pack
  4. Great story Greg and if I'd known so many folks were gonna be up there the last week we'd have come up too and grabbed a cabin.
  5. I just went through your post again Joey and this picture really is fantastic.
  6. I DO see my exhaust on cool mornings Greg, I was just saying that I had never had any smoke from the motor. Guess I should learn to express myself better
  7. I've been running my 150 for 3 years now Greg and have never had any smoke coming from it.
  8. Outstanding catch !!!!
  9. That's great Will, always good to see folks helping out the critters.
  10. Our 1st time there was about 4 years ago and we stayed in cabin 10 which is boat access only. First evening the BBQ didn't work so I called the office and they said they'd be right over to check it. It was literally only about 3 minutes after my call and here comes Frank around the bend in his boat. I met him at the dock and said "What the heck took you so long" He couldn't fix it but had a new BBQ on our porch within minutes. Fantastic service for sure.
  11. Fifty years ago I knew man who lived in the same log cabin on the Bonnechere River that he was born in 70 years before that. One morning when he was a young boy he looked out the cabin window and saw a bear hunched over their canoe at the waters edge, so he grabbed the family rifle, stuck it out the window and killed the bear. When he went down to the water he realized the "bear" he'd just killed was actually his father.
  12. You need to figure out what your gonna use the boat for, casting, trolling, drift fishing, water skiing, cruising with the family, big water, little water, sunny days only, or cold and rainy too ?? Once you decide what the main uses will be, it'll narrow your choices down a bunch and make the decision easier.
  13. Yeah, but it's tough doing a figure 8 in that silly little hole
  14. Should have come back with the SAME bait Phil, you got her attention once, so giver another shot with what attracted her the 1st time.
  15. I agree with Slowpoke, it's a nice boat but if your a caster, specially one who likes to cast from the bow, that may not be your best choice.
  16. It was for sale last year too Dan along with the rest of the surrounding property. There were for sale signs every couple hundred feet to the east and then up and around the east end. This year they've removed all the signs and evidently they've decided not to sell it as a bunch of different properties but as only 1 or 2 packages. It's a gorgeous area and personally, I'd hate to see a bunch of cabins ....or monster homes along those shores. I've also stayed there a couple times and it's really nice.
  17. I've always found Suicks to be excellent fall baits, use weighted versions and work them much slower than you would in the summer.
  18. Big fish, happy kids =
  19. Sunshine only lasted 10 minutes here Chris, now it's clouded over again. Good thing I looked out the window when I did
  20. Nice hearing from you Kelvin, it's been awhile. Have a nice Thanksgiving Bud and don't be a stranger around here.
  21. Yep, I remember that place and they also had another yard down on the Danforth where they had a chunk of coal the size of a Volkswagen sitting outside the main door on the sidewalk
  22. I was waiting to see those fish pictures Joey, congrats to the pair of you, it sounds like a great vacation. Your getting to be quite the pro with that camera of yours too, those shots are outstanding.
  23. That was an excellent video. I was born in Toronto in '46 and saw ALOT of changes over the years, but I still liked it the way it was back in the day compared to what it is now. I still remember riding the new subway on Yonge Street when it 1st opened in '52 My folks built a new home at Leslie & Lawrence in Don Mills in '54 and that was waaaaay out in the boonies, but today it's practically downtown. Hard to believe, but well into the 50's we still had horses & wagons delivering alot of the stuff to the house every day. Bread, milk, ice, coal in the winter and even the old sheeny man to pick up the junk. Now that I live a million miles away from there, I hope I never have to see the place again.
  24. That's a big pike, it'll be nice to see that picture.
