Glad that's over, bring on the hockey.

Certainly much refinement needs to be done. Interested to see where this goes.

I should be able to make it to the Barrie one.

Terry Fox started his run across Canada.

Because you lacked the foresight to bring your own? ... or a book.

Nice pick-ups. I don't know about the rest but I would call them Kwikfish or flatfish, a Canadian wiggler is a little bit different.

Tough to top that.

Check nymph... is a pun if anyone knows about czech nymphing.

I was considering using "free" "labour".

Skunk scull??? Calling out free labour, you've got stones.

Tornado watch for Barrie, Collingwood area according to weathernetwork.ca. as well.

As JoshS mentioned, the May 2011 In-Fishermen has an article about countdowns and other options. The article isn't on line yet, but might be at some point. The article mentions: Salmo minnows, Rebel Tracdown minnow, Sebile sinking Koolie minnow. Yo-Zuri has a few options: sinking Crystal minnow, L minnow, SW Pin's Minnow, Pin's minnow magnet.

Got a photo??? Cover your credit card #s.

I couldn't send you a pm. I'm sure it won't easy, but maybe you can get some more fishin' in.

Nice, eco-friendly varmint control. Ever since the Mutual of Omaha wildlife tv shows from my youth I've wanted to own one of those air boats.

Sweet fish. Those planes aren't called tail draggers fer nothin'.

My brother and I are well north of 500lbs before our tackle, and lunches, are put in the boat.

My clothes do that a lot now too.

We now know the reason they are not coming to southern Ontario.

Biting tongue hard. You do relise we can see your picture in your posts???

My laptop is not water, or weather proof.

Bet it looks a lot like my 2 year olds potty dance.

Big corperations don't just enter a country on a whim and throw darts at a map to pick locations. That being said, the entire population of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba combined does not aproch what would be within a 2 hour drive of a store in the gta. Take a look at the where bps and cabelas have their stores in the lower 48, and factor in the population density of the areas/states. Cabelas is more midwest: http://www.cabelas.com/stores/stores_home.jsp?WTz_l=Header BPS is more east/south: http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CFPageC?appID=94&storeId=10151&catalogId=10001&langId=-1

The hardcore fisherman and hunter has invented his ultimate outdoor cooker — the Hook and Cook. The towable barbecue comes with skies or tires and can be hooked to a snowmobile or ATV. "The original one was made about 10 years ago . . . it was basic with just skis," says Michaud, 52. But it was feedback of those who have seen the concept that pushed him to look at it in a different light. "My son (Ryan) said 'why don't we patent it because everyone who has seen it really liked it?'" he Michaud recalls A welder by trade, Michaud has always tinkered with metal, fabricating and developing new ideas. After having used his first model for about a decade, he decided to improve it before applying for a patent. The Hook and Cook's grill moves up, down and rotates easily, and the lid doubles as a table. Michaud enjoys cooking on an open fire so much, he uses his year round. The new model can be equipped with skis or tires, and comes apart for storage. Michaud is also working on a storage container accessory that would allow for transportation of goods including fishing tackle and food. "That way there people can bring gear, the stove and they're ready to go," he says. With only two Hook and Cooks in existence — the original and the newest model — Michaud hopes to find a company interested in manufacturing and marketing the idea. "I am looking for a company to work with me to get this on the market," he says, "like a business partner." He believes there is a market out there, he just needs to get his cookers built. "If something comes of it, great. If not, I told me wife we will have one heck of a nice barbecue," he laughs. Michaud can be reached at [email protected] or 705-776-1012.
