  1. Yep. Just made the trip. Only 15 km of single lane hwy left.
  2. Some dumb cut down a perfectly healthy tree and put it inside their house, decorate it, then throw it out 2 weeks later. They do this every year if you can believe that. From the outside many cultures have unusual traditions. Educate (and fine heavily), don't ostracize.
  3. For some cultures this is thought to bring good luck. Along the lines (but far more damaging) of an angler tossing coins into the water. I am not condoning it just passing along information.
  4. Do you mean a floating fly line? No issues on small streams (as stated above). If you are using a floating line while on a "deep" lake or pond (10 plus feet) to cast or troll, it really works much better if you use a sinking line.
  5. Did you have a motor on the canoe?
  6. The "just drive it" quote also comes from the place that may get your repair business and another sale when the current motor goes blam-o.
  7. Not that getting "hooked" is ever good but I would imagine that close to the nail would be worse then most other areas of the hand.
  8. Thunders storms in Barrie are periodically knocking down the satellite feed of the hockey game. The CBC website has the feed.
  9. That first shot just made me go bbbbrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
  10. Nice to get the first one of the season in the boat.
  11. Sorta like getting passed on the highway by a formula one car while driving a family sedan.
  12. I am sure there are some very visceral memories for him. Very special.
  13. Does smiling on the inside count?
  14. Classy move.
  15. Maybe not, but if you were expecting it in early May then it does seem like a long time.
  16. For me it's not so much the non-tiller arm that gets sore but the posterior deltoid (back of upper shoulder). In my younger days if it did hurt it was fine by the next day. Now I feel it almost a week later.
  17. Many that own a boat really don't want to know the actual total it costs to have their boat sit there mocking them all fishing season. I know I don't.
  18. I believe that reel hasn't been made for a few years now. In my opinion the newer Curados do not measure up and you'll have to pry my 300DSV from my cold dead hands.
  19. Puke plant.... Auto correct makes me pop.
  20. You mean Calcutta te right? Havn't even picked up the new shimano but I believe the tranx only comes in a right hand handle right now.
  21. A host team generates local fan interest and atmosphere. Host teams that get beat out early in their league play-offs rarely win the cup, but in one game, anything can happen.
  22. That's not built at all like a TE.
  23. Wow. And down here in central Ontario we've had squat but need of bad.
  24. So I should cancel my rush order for 10 new TEs?
  25. I get such a feeling of pride when my son counts to 17. I can't even imagine what you must feel.
