Fishing licences can be purchased on line here you need the sportsman card as well https://www.ontario.ca/page/fishing-licence-non-residents-canada Any bank in the US will order cash but it is not usually on hand so allow a day or two. Check with any major airport as well they have it on hand. Art

Ahh we call that bulging. A light spinnerbait subsurface with an occasional breaking of the surface. Burning is a heavier spinner subsurface retrieved very quickly back to the boat. Chopping is retrieving back and stop cranking to make the lure helicopter then resume retrieving. Flaring is retrieving with an irregular cadence such as 4 cranks slight pause repeat with different number of cranks. Lots of different ways to fish a spinnerbait for sure. Art

I made it to pond X today and the pattern was topwater what a blast. We then switched to burning spinners but the final answer was sencos in the weed holes for big bass. Art

jAs always Joe and I had a great time with our friends. The fishing was tough with 6 fish boated for the week and a muskie that short struck me three times on three different days. The visits from Leslie and Leslie and T.J. and Monique was also very special. Between Goldie , Regan and Barny the mouch we felt the week was closer to a home coming more than just another week of fishing . Danny the resident guide was nice enough to take a booking from me and the information he freely gave and the laughter will live in my memory for many a year. If you want to contact him here is a link to his website. http://www.nipissingmuskies.com/ Thanks to everyone for making our vacation excellent Art

Happy Canada day to all of my friends up North. Art

Have the shop do an analysis on the motor this fall and give you an honest opinion. On board computers can be read. Plugs and compression would tell you how healthy your motor is. I have motorcycles and cars from the 70;s that run like clockwork. Art

Here is a link of 4 stroke oils that have blended an oil that passes the FC W certification. https://www.nmma.org/assets/cabinets/Cabinet456/2015%20FC-W%20List.pdf Art

If the back seat is going to be used by adults make sure you sit in the back before you decide. The distance between the wheel wells and from the front to the back should be able to fit your favorite toy and a 4x8 sheet. Ask you local mechanic which one he is most comfortable repairing. If you can buy it from a private sale you will get more for your money. Let a mechanic look at and read the computer before you buy. Some little old ladies dog there shiny pickup trucks like there is no tomorrow. All brands are good mine is the F150 and e250 ecoboost times two they have been perfect to me but I am big on maintenance and my local mechanic is a genius on fords. Choose the one YOU like because it will be the one you maintain. Art

Ask any mechanic and he will tell you lubricates are cheaper than metal. Marine is a brutal environment for metals and to save a few bucks using an oil that is not designed for marine use is going to cost you a lot more in the long run. As a few others have bragged my twin 318's from 1989 are still humming along without any documented oil related issues on marine oil. Art

The marine oils are loaded with corrosion resisting additives as well as a different shear additives(ability to cling to parts between running). They are blended differently and since we drive our cars every few days usually it is different than how often we drive the boats. the correct oil bears the FC-W trademark. The amount of rusting on bearings and piston walls increases the longer they sit without using a fw-c oil. Art

thanks folks This is the week I look forward too. A week in Canada with a great group of friends. At

Anyway I am packing for my week up North to fish and have fun with a great group of people. I will have limited internet so I will most likely not reply to to many posts for a little bit. Thank you to all for the discussion we all want the same thing so that in a way is a good start. Art

You lost me on this one The purchase was legal the way it was used was illegal. Art

Right purty fish Dutch. Art

The difference is the drug users are doing something illegal and are in the arena of needing to be brought to justices. The war on drugs is not lacking laws it is lacking manpower. Buying a gun legally is not illegal thus forth no justice is needed. Now if you break the law to get a gun then no matter what law is enacted you will break it regardless so more laws will not solve the issue. Art

What a great example of what I have been saying if 51% of the people wanted them they would be on the shelves. Art

The root of my opinions is justice or the rights of people to be innocent before being guilty. As you read further into it is the right to justice to be considered innocent until proven guilty. If he had not died then he would face the justice system that would have been found by his peers either guilty or innocent and while it does not bring back the dead it would be justice. We are still at the point of lets say tomorrow all guns are illegal (can't happen) but now that with a wish and a wave of the wand no new guns are made. Every law abiding person turned theirs in now who still has guns? Well half of the law abiding citizens will and all of the criminals will be armed. Now that you know before hand that guns have disappeared in the US and you want to be a terrorist you will either bring your own or find a bad guy who will sell you his. You have a better chance of outlawing cars that pollute and kill before guns will disappear. There is nothing that guarantees the right for people to have access to alcohol. The number of deaths has to be higher than 11,000 people between medical deaths, car accidents, over indulging, and poor judgment. No one will outlaw alcohol because 51% of people want it. The penalty to non drinkers or rational drinkers is extensive financial burdens especially in Canada with the government collecting huge amounts of taxes to cover it. Ask yourself will alcohol be outlawed for the good of the public in Canada? (rhetorical) Is it possible ? {Think prohibition in the US} All nations have issues that are unsolvable ours is guns since Canadians know the ins and outs of Canada I think it is better for you to name your secret poison. Just to reiterate I am not happy with the way guns are regulatedto give you an insight into my mind, I took an oath when I joined the Navy "I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God." I still believe in those words to fight for freedom of the oppressed to be guided by the laws of the country to enforce the written laws put before me by my superiors. The law is the point change the law legally in a manner that the citizens have voted in then all of my guns or alcohol or whatever the people decide will be followed. The new health care system in the US is so wrong on so many levels (which I will NOT answer or debate)BUT was voted in by the masses so I abide by it. I as you all are doing here in a polite and thoughtful way (thank you) will be doing my darndest to eliminate what I see as a major flaw in our system. Art

If you want a real unique action with a high hookup ratio try this Live target Mouse. It outfishes there frogs for bass 2-1 every time. I put this lure on during any topwater bite. .

You are not erroring on 1 person you are erroring on every single person in the legal system. He is by definition at the time was a suspect not a felon when he bought the gun. I can make you a suspect with a phone call unfounded or not. I am not happy he got the guns I wish he did not get a gun but so far no one has come up with a viable solution either here on OFC or the whole United States. I personally think a unicorn will be found first. Art

The definition of insanity is not being in touch with reality. It is thinking that things will change just because you think they should. It is when the masses and the odds of change are extremely slim however hard you continue to press the issues with no hope of results in the real world. I actually carry at least 20 mags to the range for my assorted pistols and rifles. This is a foreign and abstract thought to you because of your culture, I am glad of that. It took me awhile to get used to dropping a couple hundred bucks to make holes in paper and loud noises for practice. It however is the only way I have the confidence that I am a responsible gun owner and an excellent shot. To me a legally owned and maintained gun is a right that I am entitled to as much so as you feel you are entitled to drive a car. If you want to be frightened of something that is going to kill someone quicker than a gun you should see my collection of race bikes. lol Art

But those are not crimes how many times have you said I'm going to kick the driver who cut you offs ass? A meaning less statement said with no conviction. Now let your 5 year old hear it and tell her teacher my daddy's going to kick some guys ass and now you have to clear your name over a useless statement. Some of the most devious people with the darkest thoughts can appear normal history shows us that on almost all of the most horrible criminals. I have done risk assessments on people with a friend of mine who does risk assessment /body guarding and it takes an average of 3 hours to get enough information to start an interviewing process on them. The leg work can take days depending on how long and far the trail is. Sure we need a better system to check out people but 51% of us say no so it will not happen. Art

I would laugh but I am faced with the truth of that statement. The last 3 elections have been damned if I do and damned more if I don't. Art

. The tactical way to shoot is to shoot all but the last bullet drop the mag with one in the chamber 5 or 35 you are already to rock and roll when your target is presented. I don't know about you but I can drop a 14 round 40 cal mag and have the next clip in in less time than it takes for you to shoot 2 bullets. As Lew says it is not the guns it IS the people. Since the guns are readily available already nolaw will correct this. Social help and better support and lines of communication are the only viable answer. Art

A question to answer a question What law did he break that would prevent him from buying the gun? If I called the police and said you have been slapping your wife and they interviewed you and found that you did not break the law. You then went to apply for a career changing security clearance and was denied would you feel justice was done? You have the right to be innocent until proven guilty here. I by no means think that he should have gotten a gun but he should have the right to be innocent till he is convicted by a jury of his peers. Less government is still something I believe in. Art

Sweet bud nice family and fishing. You know winston on a tennis ball lure would be quite a fight. Make sure you have video though. Art
