The way it's looking at you its good that you're not a vole.

For me another big consideration is the dealer/service available and what outboard options are available, if any.

The muskie's odd are better with the drum removed.

Seven hundred and nine posts MM. Some of us also discuss fishing and other topics here. Give it a shot, maybe you won't come off as such a amazingly insufferable boar.

Very nice. I figured the weight difference had to do with the driver sitting at the console, countering the extra weight????

Hey Steve and Musky Mike: What is the approximate towing weight of those outfits?

Nice fish. Most of us have had a fish do that to us, less with the camera ready to go.

"The last goal he ever scored..."

I realized it was a camera once she pulled it out of the water. Maybe she would get better shots if she had more practice. Meaning dad needs to catch more fish.

Don't let Lew see that.

Oh Joey revenge is a dish best served cold, but thanks for the laugh at Paul's expense.

Second photo? I remember the crankbait show, didn't realize it was you.

Hate you soooo much. Thanks for taking the time to post some photos.

Thanks guys. I would suggest that there is a distinction with a difference between a millionaires family and a million dollar family. :rofl2: Although I may find it less funny in a year or so. Do as I say, not as I do, eh Chris. I'll keep it in mind.

Looks like fun. At first I thought the young guy was ready with the gaff, I kept thinking "that's not how I would do it".

BillM has your pro repair options covered. No, nail polish alone won't hold. If you were out in a boat and wanted an emergency repair fishing line would work (braid would be better then mono) or even some duct tape. At home some tread and proper epoxy would do the job although it wouldn't look as good or last as well as a pros handy work.

Ok, I can be sure, "we" was a mistake.

aka redear. We can be sure it's not a walleye/pickerel.

http://www.nugget.ca/ArticleDisplay.aspx?e=3510627 Lake on centre stage at summit By DAVE DALE The Nugget Updated March 23, 2012 Registrations for a Lake Nipissing Summit organized by Nipissing First Nation are starting to roll in with a website and Facebook page sparking interest. “We've got about 30 registered so far. The speakers are lined up and everything is pretty well nailed down,” Dwayne Nashkawa, band manager at Nipissing, said earlier this week. The April 3-4 event is being held in the new Robert Surtees athletic centre at Nipissing University and there's no charge to participate. Day 1 is mostly about setting the stage for discussion, with presenters describing the lake's history and how various groups benefit from it as a natural resource. Estimates of the lake's economic value exceed $100 million annually, benefiting the surrounding communities. “Day 2 is more of an inclusive-type setting, with a World Cafe session for a participatory discussion,” Nashkawa said. “The format is designed to try to pull out common objectives that should form the basis for future planning . . . the aim is to get people more engaged.” North Bay Mayor Al McDonald said he's looking forward to the discussions and that it's good opportunity for the surrounding municipalities to show leadership. “It will give us a better understanding how we can protect this resource and how we can work together,” McDonald said. “It's incredible we can get every municipality to the table and agree it needs protecting.” He said it's not all about the walleye fishery, noting that the health of the lake determines many other economic and social values. “Imagine, we just spent $20 million on the waterfront,” McDonald said, noting it's a tourism draw. “Imagine if Lake Nipissing wasn't healthy?” Climate change and water quality issues such as recent outbreaks of blue-green algae will be discussed at the summit, as well as the effects of commercial and non-commercial fishing.

I don't even know if it is a bream/bluegill. That's what you run into with common/local names for fish. Makes for some fun chats around the campfire.

Which is a bluegill no? btw Ontario record for bluegills is 1 pound 8 ounces.

Wow! That is huge. A one pounder here would be a real beauty. I gotta find a photo of that.

Could be a blue gill. They ("pan fish") grow a little different down there then up here.

But it would take you 7 days to drive to those 3 other dealers up there.
