  1. Go for it Nick, it's a job that'll give you alot of satisfaction. It's nice going home at the end of the day knowing you've helped someone who was in trouble. Stop in the local firehall when you see the boys around and talk to them for awhile. They'll be a great group of guys that'll be more than happy to give you all the info you need.
  2. Like a swarm of hornets at times Larry
  3. Thanks Cliff
  4. I was actually thinking about you yesterday Joey as we had a pair of Golden Eagles flying around us all morning and I was imagining the great pictures you coulda got with that camera of yours.
  5. Like we do every September, Squid and I headed down to look for a musky on the St. Lawrence River (Lake St. Francis) near Cornwall. The weather was fantastic all 3 days and we were able to fish in shorts & T-shirts which is pretty darned good for the end of September. I landed 3 muskies and Pete lost one near the boat, then I had another one blow up on my bait beside the boat but couldn't stick her. We met Musky Mike and his bud on the water yesterday morning and shot the bull with them for awhile. Got home last night after a fun couple days. I seldom take musky pics anymore so you'll just have to take my word for it
  6. If you can't find them in P'Boro Norm, head over to Foodland in Lakefield, that's where we buy them. Then stop in here for a coffee on your way home.
  7. Awesome !! Took you awhile to get into big fish Rich but your making up for it now with 2 nice ones this year and it couldn't have happened to a nicer, more deserving guy. You've worked hard at it and now your getting your rewards. And a BIG congrats to Patsy on that bruiser she landed too, that's a great way to start off. Some guys fish a lifetime and never see a fish like that. Really happy for the pair of you !!
  8. Mornin boys, I've been away on a fishing trip to the St. Lawrence River for a few days and only got back last night and just came across this thread now. I've had several PM's over the last few months about my picture being on that website but it's not a problem for me. Rick used to be a member of this board a long time ago and him and I became friends and used to fish for muskies together quite often, but after he left the board we sorta drifted apart. I didn't know he was running a charter service now and also didn't know he used a picture of me, but like I said above, it's not a problem with me and I wish him well with the business. That picture was taken the 1st day we ever met and I got that fish about 10 minutes into the trip. Rick had a white floor in his boat and I got my thumb slashed open by a tooth and made a real mess of the boat until we got the fish released and me bandaged up. You can see the blood on my left hand and I've still got the scar. Not a good way to impress a new fishing partner Anyways, thanks to all for your concerns.
  9. Does mid-September count as fall fishing ?? 54.5 inches
  10. Great bunch of pictures Simon, specially the deer by the lake !!
  11. Always enjoy those kinda stories Skipper, I'll be watching for it.
  12. I've sold several items on Kijiji in the last year and have had nothing but great luck with the sales. Infact I even posted a story here about how well one of them went. Maybe I'm just lucky
  13. Great pictures !!
  14. Check with your municipality, they sometime have them or maybe even the local tool rental outfit.

    pet goose?

    Maybe he was just tryin to mooch a smoke off ya
  16. I don't fish nearly as much as I used to, I just seem to have alot of other stuff going on these day. I used to average around 70-100 muskies a year so maybe I just wore myself out This is my largest fish so far this year but BIG fish season is starting and we do a few fall trips every year to BIG fish waters, both in Eastern and Southwestern Ontario.
  17. If that big old limb snaps and bonks her on the head, it's sure gonna spoil the mood Always look forward to your paintings bushart, you've got a nice style !!
  18. Even a 20"er is better than that white striped citter Bruce
  19. Very nice indeed Jigs !!
  20. Your lucky Gerritt, my daughter hit a deer last year and did $7000 damage to her car.
  21. And to keep things interesting, my last boat was a 1650 Crestliner with 2 different horsepower ratings with both indicated on the capacity plate of the boat. U.S. Coast Guard rated the boat for 90 HP, which it had, but Canadian Coast Guard only rated it for 50 HP. I called CCG and was told Canada always under rated the maximum power but didn't know why. He did say though, that if I exceeded the 50 HP rating and had an at fault accident with the boat, I would probably have a hard time getting the insurance company to pay any $$$$.
  22. That's what it's all about right there !! Great story !!
  23. You can't hope for more than you ask for
  24. Maybe I should take up bass fishing Phil We were only on Upper Buck for an hour or two, from around 1:30 on. Lotsa bass boats running around so I figured there might be a tourney goin on, were you in one of them ??
