Hope I did not imply "Safe Ice" thread? Is there such a thing? I guess it takes a bit more education than the potential users which may take a pinned post about Ice Conditions as Safe Ice. No worries, I probably should have known better than to make a suggestion.

We have always encouraged people to make suggestions however if it is one that we decline to act on please do not be offended. Responsibly and liability plays heavily in all of our decisions here.

I buy the Sport license when I fish Canadian waters it's the least I can do to support the fisheries.

Check the connections and replace the good looking fuse. Their should not be a relay or regulator in that circuit.

I have bunk boards on all of my boats including a 18ft ranger bass boat with 150. That thing was impossible to push off unless it was 3/4 floating. I found a product called Liquid Bunk Roller and sprayed it on the bunks. I went to launch the boat the next time and if it was not for the safety strap it would have ended up on the ground. I can launch it wet or dry with just a light push it is crazy how well this product works. I replaced my tie downs with a seatbelt type strapping system and a chain just to make me comfortable about how easily it slides.

Wow what a great set of shots.

Nice job Brian you should have told her it is a great way to plant flowers in the spring then it is a US toy instead of a MY toy. Now she is going shopping for cloths and shoes and you can't gripe about it.

Sorry you are ill Cliff and no I am not surprised what your friends did for you. You have always been a class act and it shows...

If you planned on eating fast food type stuff then you will be paying less than the price of the package deals. If you want a nice sit down dinner than usually the package deals are better in quality at a discount. What type of meal are they offering and how much per meal?

Art

you can tell that I need to get back to work ...LOL thursday is the day I get to go back but

 

I hurt my back the other day icefishing didn't help it at all now who knows when I will go back..

Yup get out and stand with your back to the heater for awhile then lay on the ice. Call it medical treatment and write it off on your taxes.

Well done it looks like a banner year and a bright future to come.

Thanks Solopaddler for the info. down here it is very rare that we use any type of leaders. We have very few clear water places around here and the only time I put a leader on is when I am fishing braid and then it is only a piece of mono. Up North I use Braid and tied directly to my pike lures and I do not see any sign of shying away from the lure. I however find my bass catch seems to go up with a mono leader. Is the aggressive bite of the Pike enough to over ride need for stealth leaders? Are the eyes of the Bass better than the Pikes or is their attack cautious enough to make a difference?

We call it "magpie syndrome" It is were the shine and the glitter catches your eye and you just pick it up. I have not bought a soft bait in I bet 3 years because I have so many that I have never opened hanging around.

That ham is both artistic as well as delicious I am sure. I have a pot of red beans with rice bubbling as we speak. The cornbread with jalapeños and sweet butter is making a sweet smell now. Down to Joes shortly for the rest of our dinner for 17 people.

Happy birthday Mark and Pete,
