  1. ……. and when you are with that guide, make sure you bring a portable GPS and track all your movements. Will prove invaluable the following days. If you want to go back and revisit spots, you will need it. Trust me. You can get lost lickity-split.
  2. Back in early July of 2017, I was looking for some jig heads and plastic jigs to use while on summer vacation. I connected with Bigugli and bought some fantastic jigs he pours and paints. I then connected with GBW who hooked me up with a half dozen packages of plastic jigs (Widow Makers) of various colours . In August I managed to get away for a few days of fishing with Buckster on the northern end of Pigeon Lake. Our goal was to try our luck with some walleye . We got to a spot that looked promising and be began to gear up . I had on a Bigugli chartreuse special jig head and a craw-dad coloured Widow Maker twister tail . We fished for five minutes when I feel a dead weight on the end of my line . I says to Buckster..... "Musky...I hope the line holds!!" Well after a ten minute fight we see the fish under the surface and to our amazing delight a HUGE walleye!! We get the old girl into the boat, take a few pictures and measurements and set her free to delight someone else in the future . As we did not have a scale, we plugged the dimensions into an on-line calculator and found she was just over 11 pounds!! Now I know there are alot bigger walleye than 11 pounds but for the Kkawarthas, I think it was a pig. Since the first day of fishing Pigeon. ( 20 years ago) I had always said that any Walleye over 10 pounds was going to get immortalized by replica and mounted on the cottage wall. Well, last Sunday I turned the big 50 and to my surprise my wonderful wife had secretly had a replica made and gifted it to me . I was speechless! These replicas truly are works of art and I'm gonna enjoy many days admiring it and recounting the story of that August day . A BIG shout-out to Bigugli, GBW, Buckster and of course my fabulous wife . Life truly is wonderful! Now after 20 years of fishing Pigeon, I am still hunting for a six pound bass and a 30 pound Musky!!! Here is a picture of my mounter! Cheers, Meely
  3. Im sure when everyone gets their instructions on Jan 8 there will be some sort of disclaimer stating you forgive any wrong doings on their part and that you wont take part in any future class actions that may be filed. Pretty cheap way (for them) to cover their "assets". Meely
  4. Cliff, Deepest sympathies from Zen and I. Meely
  5. Try Best Choice Containers....... They are Kleinburg. South east corner of 50 and Albion- Vaughan Road. I see a sign on their fence stating they sell used containers. Not sure of their pricing. Meely
  6. Thanks for all the info so far. As I mentioned , the trailer has a brand new LED wiring kit installed and everything works fine when attached to my buddys newer F150. I only encounter issues when attached to my van so I am going to assume the issue has to do with the current tow wiring set up???
  7. Hello gang! Hoping I could get some help with the wiring/lights on a small boat trailer. I was given a small boat trailer that I plan to use to haul a small 12 ft aluminum. The trailer was totally rewired with new LED lights. Hooked the trailer to a newer vehicle and all lighting worked. Hooked the trailer to my vehicle 2003 chevy venture .....( i know... a relic but it still runs fine). When hooked to my van : 1) the LED running lights go very dim 2) the passenger light will not work when the full headlights are on 3) no passenger brake lights when full lights are on I checked the current plug (flat 3 plus 1) and all 3 slots lit the tester up and the ground is connected. I read that multi-bulb vehicles need a small converter box to get the lights working. Heres the kicker, I removed the small panel at the back of the van and noticed that I already have a converter box feeding the current wiring but as I said.... not all lighting configurations work. Would appreciate any and all help. Tnx Meely
  8. The majority of companies do not understand that retention is a whole lot cheaper than recruitment! Meely
  9. Fish Pigeon quite often. We have boated numerous skis over the 50 inch mark over the years. Not braggin'.....just sayin'! Meely
  10. How's he going to give you a ticket if you have forgotten your wallet and He has no way of proving who you are? Meely
  11. Hello Gang, I have an old 1973 coytage bathroom counter top that needs a facelift. I dont want to get into any heavy or big renos but just a light re-do. Does anyone have any experience on painting or re-surfacing a bathroom counter top? What product should I use etc. Looking for materials that I can pick up at any local home reno joint. Thanks for any help. Meely
  12. Very sad. Does anyone know what area of the north end? Meely
  13. Cliff, Best of luck to you and the missus! The door to the Manor is always open and there is always a spot on my dock and in my boat for you! The world could use a few more people like you! Best of luck my friend and keep in touch. Meely
  14. Capt, If yer willing to take the hit and pay for it..... Why not fight it and see what happens? File for disclosure and then take it from there. Worked for me. Worse case scenario you are no worse off. Just my $.02 Meely
