Don't forget the south Americans are burning 10s of thousands Hectares of

RAIN forest each month.To reclaim land to plant grain for Ethanol.

Only if you tell me why it SNOWS?

Cliff, this is southern Ontario.

Their is always open water.

So I watch the race yesterday, and all I can say is rubbish.

The COT cars don't even break the 200mph mark.

Mean while they pull 8700rpm's.

Racing is a progressive sport. Not come out with all this technology only

too run at a even pace.

This is a poor adaption of what I think racing should be.

They don't start racing till their is a hand full of laps left.

This is a joke, right.

I would rather watch a 80's race with 20 cautions.

HaaHaHAA! Squid.

It's nice to see that someone out their has never broken any laws.

Maybe they should start with ME!

Yeah. Send me back to a country that I have no Relations in.

You will get fuel economy and a couple of MPH,s.

But nothing substantial.

The max horse rating is more about weight then ponies.

In most cases the next size up is usually in a different weight class.

Thanks for the info.

Going to pull out all the stops , to try and put

Joey on a fish this year.

Has enyone used leadcore on a inline planer board.

Was thinking of giving it a try with some 10 colour 17lb.

Will the leadcore stay clip to the board.

I have all 3 type of the clips.

Man this board,like always is a wealth of information.

Thanks for every one 's reply.

Love to get one of Spiel's customs, but that would be

up to Joey.

I have a couple of compre's.

But I need something that will jerk the heavy 8oz glide baits.

I got a 7'2" Pete, great rod but I keep hitting the water with it.

Looking to get a heavy rod for trolling and glide baits

for under $100.

I'm 5'10" so I was thinking of a 6'6" rod.

That can't be right.

Theres pictures of you holding fish.

Nice work on the cottage.

One turn of the handle X 2 turns of the pinion gear X 6 turns of the bevel gear or spool.

So if Merc is a Chrysler and their suppose to be crap?

Why do you see so many Neons and older mini vans on the road.

No one is saying E-tec's are junk.

What I see is that they don't match up to BRP makes them out to be.

I have read some independent testing results and not one said that the

E-tec is a better engine then the Opti, but a equal.

The one thing that the reports said is that they are not as fuel efficient.

the reports on the net, you just have to look.

First I would like to start by saying, the E-tec is all hype.

A friend of my that money is no object owned a 2025 Lund pro V.

It was a 2000 with a 225 Opti on it.

Beginning of last season he bought the same boat,with a 225 E-tec.

Not long ago we were talking.

He tells me that his E-tec has lower fuel efficiency,less power then his Opti and runs like

dirt in the rain.

He tell me that he like the engine. theres truly nothing wrong with it.

The only thing that peeves him, is how much the salesman kept telling how better this engine

was over the merc.

Then he joke. They must have compared there E-tec to a regular merc 2 stroke.

I have tendencies too believe this man. For he puts over 150 hours on the engine a year.

True engine efficiency does not come from the engine,but the prop you use.

A stainless is better then aluminum. A cleave over stainless .A four blade over three.

Merc will also sell more engines then all the other manufactures will build.

Ooooooh, Monique, you wascally wabbit!!!

Joey

Terry, After 30 years of your shenanigans.

I don't think she would wait till you're asleep.

Congrats to you both.

Their a saying in my trade for machinist.

If you want it done right you get a German to do it.

If you want it done right and this week you get a CANADIAN.

Sweet report Ron. That second clip is great. What a beautiful place.

Great fishing and great friends and seizures to boot, sounds like the perfect weekend to me.

Joey

Sheesh, if I keep this up, Paul will be an all knowing angler any day now

Joey

Just a heads up.

It is law that you use trailer tires!

Thanks all again.

No neck is to red for me, Dog.

Thanks all.

Look like I'll be looking into hard mounts.

Didn't want to drill more holes into the boat.

But when a man needs to drill a hole........!

If you 're going to run divers.

I would get 17# test.

I run 30# on the real big divers.

Joe, I cut my hair once in the summer.

Nearly got sun stroke from the sun beat down on the neck.
