  1. I'm heading to the West Arm on Saturday for a week, not looking too bad then...hopefully.
  2. Best product I've found and have been using it for years is the OFF Family Care, Smooth & Dry. Comes out as a dry powder and works great. No oily mess on your skin, no smell and best of all only 15% deet. I wander around the woods here at home all the time and walk 3-4 miles every morning and never get bothered by skeeters, even when up north.
  3. Nobody said anything about changing the world, he simply said he chewed someone out for apparently fishing for bass OOS
  4. Been a long time since we had the tiller vs. console arguments Shane LOL Fun times hahaha
  5. I don't mind the cool weather, infact I prefer it, but it sure would be nice to see the end of this darned rain.
  6. Pete, try Buckhorn Yacht Harbour, they've got a great reputation for repairs and may offer you a cheaper price on that part. I've never dealt with them but have heard good things about them. https://www.buckhornyachtharbour.com/
  7. Just by coincidence Pete I came across hwy 7 east of Peterboro this morning and there's a new Dewildt dealer there now. Never heard of the company before and now twice in a couple hours.
  8. I've always been 100% pro-cop but sometimes they can be real jerks like the guy you encountered. Couple years back we were at a cottage resort and two of the guests were out in a boat when they got stopped by the OPP. They were both wearing lifejackets and there were 2 more clearly visible on the seats. The driver had a rip in his jacket so the cop gave him a ticket somewhere over $200 saying the jackets had to be in good condition and his wasn't. The guy explained to the cop that legally he didn't even have to be wearing a jacket but the cop said that didn't matter because he WAS wearing one that was torn. No wonder so many folks have total disrespect for cops.
  9. Nice job Dave, hydraulic steering is one of the best things you can have on a boat.
  10. Here's a nice chunky incidental largie I got while casting for muskies. Used to actually get lots of them chasing huge baits
  11. Outstanding, bunch of nice fish for sure !!
  12. Fantastic beginning to your season Jimmer and hopefully it continues for you.
  13. Just another thought here but any chance there's any off road clubs around the area ? Those guys are always getting bogged down but they have winches on their trucks and they may be able to get you out.
  14. Gas dropped 2 cents over my way today, course it'll probably go up 5 cents tomorrow.
  15. That would still be better than Walleye Park John LOL
  16. I mentioned in another thread a few days ago that I couldn't see the system opening on time. Water levels are coming down but the currents are still fast. I took a drive up to Burleigh Falls yesterday and the current and high water is crazy right now.
  17. I started fishing Hay Bay (Bay of Quinte) way back around 1955 with my family and we used to camp at Pickerel Park and to this day it's still called PICKEREL Park and I doubt if they have any intentions of changing it to Walleye Park LOL
  18. I don't even fish anymore but they'll always be pickerel to me.
  19. Very nice boat indeed, congratulations. Looks like it'll handle big water without any issues.
  20. I put a keelguard on my glass Skeeter and they're quite easy to install. Here's an article on installing them on aluminum boats. https://www.gator-guards.com/tips-install-keelshield-aluminum-boats/
  21. Thanks Dave, the existing cable is BELL and then I picked up a 3' coax this morning.
  22. Thanks John, that's interesting.
  23. What would be the reason for not using it John ? Far as I know they can only do good but then again I'm as far from being a techie as possible.
  24. Thanks Dave, that's what I figured but thought I'd ask 1st before blowing up the new TV LOL
  25. Hey guys, I bought a new TV this morning and also got a surge protector but have never seen this type before with the connectors on the bottom for cable/sat IN & OUT My satellite cable currently comes from the dish, thru the wall and hooks into the back of my BELL receiver. With this protector do I run from the dish into the "IN" connector then out the "OUT" and then to the receiver ?? If so I'll need to get another length of cable.
