  1. Good info! I just replaced my old one as it fell of or was stolen? I better check for a light or install one. Thanks
  2. Baby steps for me and I'm always looking for ways to make Muskie fishing easier rather than harder lol
  3. Yeah, I thought Muskie gear was expensive lol
  4. $130 waders, cheap fly combo and a few flies and I was off to fish the Grand with an old buddy in from the east coast. I've been jaded from river fishing for decades but this was a totally different experience than I remember. The Grand is truly that! The scenery and wild life is just awesome and the rain enhanced the experience even more. Our day started with a quick lesson, then on to the river where we only found chubs. We broke for lunch around noon and stopped into Grand River Trout fitters. We grabbed a few smaller recommended flies and got a little direction from the helpful staff and were back to the water. 10 mins later I got my first and only brown a new PB at a monster 10"! Awesome!! My buddy ended up landing one a little bigger at 12" or so. A few little smallies and lots of chub made for a great day. I'll defiantly be out fly fishing again. I've got lots to learn and equipment upgrading to do. My next goal will be a couple of pound rainbow or brook trout.
  5. That easy. I had an OPP question my home made papers a few weeks ago but after explaining I got it from the scrap yard and rebuilt all the parts I was on my way.
  6. Ok, I found a site full of info that makes now sense to me lol so I'll just find out the old fashioned way.
  7. Great info thanks. Is there a site that tracks dam openings?
  8. I have a buddy flying in from the East coat and he wants to do some fly fishing on the Grand river up near Elora. I'm totally not a fly fisherman by I'm going to give it a go. We are heading out this Saturday but looking at the forecast we might get 10mm of rain. Will this blow out the river or stain it to the point it's not worth fishing? Like I said I have little to no stream fishing experience. Any advice would be appreciated.
  9. Now I've had it running it fires first time with no problems? It's done this to me the last few trips. I'll try the seafoam when I get back
  10. Yep,the good stuff!
  11. As much fun as it is finding a marine mechanic in muskoka on the long weekend, I'd thought I'd try here first. It seems like to me that my engine isn't getting gas? Every time I prime the ball it seems empty or a little soft? Starting the engine is the main problem. To get it to start I need the choke wide open and let it run high rpms for a few mins and hope it doesn't die putting it in gear. Once it's running it runs fine. Any on the spot trouble shoots I can do?
  12. Seemed to had a tough time saying bicycle'er. Maybe a few too many pops
  13. Three guys on the boat for the pike opener. First person who catches a fish decides who is going for a cold swim. Buddy #1 catches a fish and chooses buddy #2 to go for a swim. I'm lmao and buddy #2 decides to take me with him for the swim, phone and all. Brand new 5s fried. Good times still
  14. Right! If I re-apply it should show my licence status. Thanks guys
  15. So instead of printing off the conformation page of my licence renewal I saved the screen shot on my phone. Of course I killed yet another phone and no longer have that conformation and I'm still waiting for my licence to come in the mail. How do I get proof of my licence?
  16. Last fall on LSC I boated 4 big fish with gar jumping all around the boat. I thought I'd snag one for sure burning an in line spinner.
  17. Porpoise is the best explanation I've heard so far
  18. There's a cheap motel in Mitchell's bay that's attached to a dinner. Clean, bunch of bunk beds and well priced. Long ride out to deep water from Mitchell's but you probably could cut across the skinny water in your dingy. Have fun!
  19. Nice! I bought a Gopro with the sole goal of recording a LSC giant chasing on a figure 8. With baby number 3 due any day it will have to wait till fall to zing some bling!
  20. Congrats on the PB!!
