    When you launch your boat for the first time take a little extra time to check your empty trailer for broken or cracked welds, it's a lot easier with the boat off the trailer.

    Perch Fishing for GIANTS - The biggest perch I've ever seen - YouTube I don't know how much of a difference there is genetically between the European Perch and the ones here, but a 7 pound Perch?

    https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/01/us/lake-trout-record-trnd/index.html It might be my eyes? but that mount will need a serious paint job?

    LOL, what did you win for those 3 fish? http://www.lakeeriefishingderby.com/2020-fall-brawl.html?fbclid=IwAR3_Iz-4XBbSWbXbkao3jb-cdIdkldqrKzd6esYCNswH76lIk3QN_7ostUE Actually winning that thing involves a good deal of luck, same could be said of a lot of fishing events though. We don't really have a Quinte here, so choice areas and spots can cover a lot of miles. In part you are competing against charter captains that operate as head boats during the brawl, they only want fall brawl participants. https://www.facebook.com/groups/301921010176028/ It is quite a distance to come for a lot of people, planning for someone not from the area can be very tough, because you are having to gamble on the weather also, some days you just aren't getting out to fish.

    " The Jumbo weighed in a 1.765 lbs " LOL, I had that problem in bass tournaments. As someone that suffers from MS I can just from what I have seen in my country that there are a lot of people with MS and other auto immune diseases that need help.

    John, I am most familiar with the Cleveland Clinic, it seems that most hospitals in the area are now associated with them or University Hospitals. The Clinic main campus is one of the best hospitals in the world, and between patients and the doctors looks like the UN building, people from all over the world giving and getting treatment. More than one hospital building there, it's a complex.

    As the season progresses and gets nearer to the spawn those fish fatten up and eggs fully develop.

    Maybe a charter bus to parking?

    Huge perch!

    Interesting blade bait, never saw one with that type of hook setup.

    I don't know John, more people more chances of illness? plus more reporting and exchange of info? He is awaiting transfer to his 3rd hospital, the Cleveland Clinic's main campus, just hoping they can help.

    How many auto workers, steel workers, and others in the manufacturing industry had to find other lines of work? It's sad that basically a few can spoil the fishing for many? I can still recall the battles here over buying out the commercial walleye netters, and their arguments that they weren't taking enough fish to hurt the population, but once they were gone from our waters here the walleye fishing on Erie returned. Sure there are other factor, weather, the spawn, but the biggest problem seemed to be the netters?

    No clue Terry, but wouldn't an 8 volt battery in a system that uses 6 volts be constantly under charged?

    3 weeks ago today our friend and house mate left here to have lunch with his sister, he has been hospitalized ever since, 30 years old, the same age as my son. The first reports were that he was acting crazy, not that it couldn't happen, but in the 5-6 years he has lived with us I have never seen any hints of it. Now the thinking is this Anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis - Wikipedia which seems to make a lot more sense to me. There was actually a book and movie about a case that seems similar https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_on_Fire_(film). Needless to say we are hoping for a good outcome and complete recovery for our friend.

    " Can I use a 36 volt charger on a 48 volt golf cart? No. You must match volts to volts. A 36V cart requires a 36 volt golf cart charger. A 48V cart requires a 48 volt golf cart charger. You can burn up your batteries if you do not charge with the proper voltage. Check out our 36V vs. 48V Guide for more information. " I am assuming from that if you have a mix you may have problems? https://batteryoutlet.ca/ maybe you could call?

    https://www.golfcartgarage.com/what-is-my-golf-cart-battery-voltage-volts/ I would be a bit leery of mixing them up.

    Man’s body discovered in Newbury Township pond after he fell through ice while fishing Sad to hear also, this really hasn't been a winter for safe ice here.

    I recall Pointe Au Baril in the 60's and 70's, every camp we stayed at there seemed to designate one evening for a " fish fry " a non participant myself, but due to the lack of walleye at that time smallmouth bass and panfish filled the menu. Things like that certainly didn't benefit the fishery?

    I drove the Niagara Parkway from Fort Erie to the falls a few times, no idea what is off the main road, but it didn't strike me as a hunting area.
  21. OhioFisherman
    Cool, unfortunately someone will think it would make a great trophy?

    John John, Dave, here all the big 3 auto companies had their own versions of the small block = big block thing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_small-block_engine Chevy and GMC trucks and vans shared the same engines, the 4 bolt main 350 was standard in them ordered with a 350, only seen in the high performance models of cars. I don't have any real idea of the customs problems of getting engines made here across the border, so it may have been possible that they used Chevy engines in other GM brands made there, like the Pontiacs. Most of the small block Chevy motors had a lot of interchangeable parts, intake manifolds, heads, crank, rods, they and aftermarket performance enhancing parts were readily available.

    No idea how tough your cops are there, here the state highway patrol and most local police departments would have an issue with over width or over height vehicles. Good luck!

    I took my first wife on a family trip to Pointe Au Baril, we got a chipmunk in our cabin, a trail of grapes out the door got it out. She wasn't nearly as thrilled with the bat flying inside the cabin, an open door and a net got it out. It seems odd to leave a warmer area that is basically poisonous snake free and encounter them there. Some years ago when I was still able to wander about my yard I had 2 minks wandering it with me, they were the first I had ever seen in the wild here, I thought someones ferrets had escaped until I did some research.

    Dave, unless Canada did their engine selection differently? As I recall the only engines offered in the full size Pontiac was a 389 or 421, the Tempest and Lemans had some smaller available engines. 64 GTO 389, single quad, 4 speed, I had one.
