Likely I wasn't talkin' 'bout you.

It's interesting to see people using something like this to take shots at other groups (groups that don't appear to factor into this tragedy). Just this week some numbers were released on snowmobile deaths in Ontario over the last 10 years. The numbers don't point to "younger" people. The numbers show that it's males, drinking, aged 45-54 and driving machines off trail. We (men) are great at killing ourselves doing all sorts of dumb things both sober and drunk. Maybe before blaming a younger generation raised by the older generations, we should look at our own generation. Now, get off my lawn.

You really need me to quote what he said? That's weak. You are not ignorant so don't play it. Cherry knows it's racist. His supporters know it's racist. They support him because he is who he is. He was allowed to say it and would have been able to continue if he had apologized. He didn't, because he didn't miss speak, or stumble over his words (which he does a lot).
-
What does he say that isn't racist. You go first because your list is shorter.

Freedom of speech has zero to do with people saying racist things without consequences. Long time coming. He hasn't been able to finish a sentence for almost as long as he hasn't been able to finish a thought. And that's coming from a white middle aged male born in Canada hockey fan. The only demographic he hasn't said something uninformed about.

Wood ashes or absorb-all/kitty-litter… as long as it has a hyphen. lol

Baseball Game Etiquitte-- What would you do???
kickingfrog replied to npt1's topic in General Discussion
I understand your frustration. Too bad they put up the protective netting. I went to a sens/ New Jersey Devils game in Ottawa years ago (My brother is a Devils fan and I took him while visiting friends near Ottawa.) All through the first period the 4 guys behind us kept saying what combination of buttons they'd be pushing on their controller as if they were controlling the players on the ice in a video game. All period. At the end of the period I looked back expecting them to be kids and was shocked that the guys were my age. All I said was nobody cares about your video game. They didn't come back after going for more beer. -
Going for some of my favourite plant based food Sunday. Grouse.

Terrible avoidable accident. The court of public opinion is very different than the actual courts. The court system would never consider that Mr. O'Leary sure seems like he'd be the type to sit back while his wife drives a boat at night.

Flight crew, bait crew and a lot of baits, plus a conveyor system to drop the baits at the correct intervals. As well as several boxes of barf bags… the baits smell atrocious.

Rabbies' baits would also be my guess. I did that back in college with them in the Kingston area.

Right until I start hunting in mid September.

What lures can i fish in early fall around lots of weeds.
kickingfrog replied to Bassin15's topic in General Discussion
My 1st, 2nd and 3rd choice is a topwater and if I have to go to 4 I'll go home. lol How thick are the weeds? Weedless spoons. Spinners with the treble removed for a single hook, I use a trailer to cover the hook point. A jighead can be rigged weedless as well. -
Heading up there next week with the family.

Depends on how much alcohol has been consumed.

The "headwaters" of the section of stream is a major lake and then the stream peters out? Generally you can look at a stream/river in 3 sections. How long each section is will depend on the topography and land use along the route. The upper part will be clean cool/cold (relative to the lower sections) water with not as much aquatic veg. Most likely to have brook trout (in this part of the country) and while there may be a number of them they won't be all that big but for me at least the most fun. The middle section will start to slow down a bit and meander a more. The temps will come up a bit and the vegetation and bug life will increase. Still likely to have brookies (temp is key) but there might not be as many but they'll be bigger. The bottom section will meander more, be slower, warmer and have more aquatic veg. Not likely to have brookies in that area.

That is the nature of the game. Some days it's nothing but blow-ups with no hook-ups. Turning out the hooks slightly might help but it also decreases the weedlessness. I'll try a smaller frog sometimes or get a little more water in the bait so it sits a little lower in the water. Some days nothing seems to make a difference.

Big changes on the bow mounted trolling motor front!
kickingfrog replied to David Chong's topic in General Discussion
I was very keen to see what Garmin was going to have as I've switched to a Garmin finder but so far they only have the higher end products out. I hope they come out with other options for my needs.- 36 replies

F-117 Nighthawk I think is what they were going for. In other words "stealth". But it is very silly looking and has zero function.- 36 replies

I love meat. I love shooting and catching meat. I also know I eat too much of it (frequency and quantity). Swapping out meat for plant based "meat" products might be helpful for my long term health and maybe it might be better for the environment. Bottom line is if it doesn't taste good I won't bother. The A&W burger is the one product I've tried that I like, I like it more than A&W's regular burger. It's not healthier than a most of my home cooked meals but if I've decided to eat a fastfood burger already… My mom's birthday is this weekend and steaks right from my friend's family's farm are on the menu. 20oz T-bone for the birthday girl, New York strip for me and the kids and a tenderloin for my wife. The only veggies on the menu are onions, mushrooms and baked potatoes.

This unit gives you the battery voltage and it never dropped more than a volt while I was watching it. I was wondering if I should have a separate battery dedicated to the finder beforhand anywat since this unit would draw more from the crankin battery.

Makes sense, the starting battery is 5-6 years old.
