  1. Don't give them any ideas, next you'll have to meow in french..
  2. Pretty cheesy, ya have to bring your own firewood for the stove, maybe just take out a couple of the inside 2 x 4's...
  3. Some things just have to be passed on.. After 35 years of marriage, a husband and wife came for counseling. When asked what the problem was, the wife went into a tirade listing every problem they had ever had in the years they had been married. On and on and on: neglect, lack of intimacy, emptiness, loneliness, feeling unloved and unlovable, an entire laundry list of unmet needs she had endured. Finally, after allowing this for a sufficient length of time, the therapist got up, walked around the desk and after asking the wife to stand, he embraced and kissed her long and passionately as her husband watched - with a raised eyebrow. The woman shut up and quietly sat down as though in a daze. The therapist turned to the husband and said, "This is what your wife needs at least 3 times a week. Can you do this?" "Well, I can drop her off here on Mondays and Wednesdays, but on Fridays, I fish." :rofl2:
  4. Just read this on another board, looks like the limits have been cut in half for non commercial types. That really makes you think twice if it's worth the drive anymore, Sport licence 2, Conservation licence 1. http://www.mnr.gov.on.ca/stdprodconsume/groups/lr/@mnr/@letsfish/documents/factsheet/stdprod_101636.pdf
  5. Being dopey again, here's the link: http://www.cliffuk.co.uk/products/dcconnectors/dcconnectors.pdf
  6. Davey buoy, after hunting I'm pretty sure what you need to make a cord is in the second picture down at the link( or something close in size). The end that would normally plug into the small 8AA pack, would plug into that connector hooked up to a 12V Gell battery. Then you can flipflop back and forth as you wish. Maybe the old Radio Shack over on Little Ave might just have that.
  7. My insurance company gives me a discount, I had to give them the brand name and model of the tire.
  8. Yes if it's a fixed mount it's easier, however, don't despair. I think its on page 29 of the manual it shows the "extra" connector, it goes between the 8AA battery pack connector and the plug that goes into the back of the Unit. It's the little receptacle end you might have a bit of a problem finding, usually called a chassis mount connector. Anyway, you can splice 2 more wires into that present short wire connector to get you to your 12V Gell battery, add a 3A fuse and you're good to go. Another method I did for a friend of mine who had a similar one, we carefully soldered 2 wires in parallel to the ones that come out of the 8AA pack to hook up to the 12V battery. You handy with the soldering iron?
  9. It ended up being the wrong picture, the wrong model and the wrong price. I'm not saying bait and switch, but ya never know.
  10. Hahaha, I think that last one is a couple degrees below absolute, so they aren't ever going to win again.
  11. Is dat yer minkey? You need a leecense for dat minkey..PP
  12. Lets look at it in a slightly different manner. If there were no one driving on the road and it was a complete skating rink, would there be any collisions? No, so why blame the icy conditions, blame the idiot drivers that can't seem to understand that slowing down a modest 10k would make more sense. Oh and I'm not ragging on you kickingfrog.
  13. Big time, I think it should become mandated. All season tires are for places where the likely hood of winter conditions are rare.
  14. Hahahaha, that's the way, they'll all be in the ditch and you'll have an empty road to drive on.
  15. Now that would be the last thing I'd do, heads up and you get a snotbox full of snow and ice pellets. But like a few of the others said, I think everyone north of #7 is getting tired of the weather nets yodeling and yammering of what's coming. It's Canada and borderline winter so get with the program, get winter tires and learn how to drive. If ya can't do that, then either stay home, get into the ditch right away or take transit.
  16. Yes, that brings a smile.
  17. Have you ever really sat down and figured out how much it costs per pound of fish after you buy all the trinkets. I think it goes the other way, the more toys and trinkets you buy, the payoff becomes the little light at the end of the ever lengthening tunnel..
  18. Well I won't be to grumpy tonight, found an extra bag of potato chips I used an ancient Lowrance X40 for many many years, it would easily pick anything up at that depth. I use an X67C in either the graph mode or flasher mode, doesn't matter, you twitch the rod, it show right now. I only paid $265 for mine and I've seen them cheaper.
  19. Joey, try this place and you have a PM. http://www.riversideoutdoors.ca/catalog/
  20. Got the Christmas flyer from Tromblys in Orillia yesterday, a quick check and I was just about to sprint up there and get me a new Aqua Vu Micro camera with the DVR. It's on page 13 listed at $299, would be a super price. Instead of leaving rubber launch strips through Angus, I made the phone call, like usual, if it looks to good to be true, it is a misprint. Ah well saved the time and gas and maybe someone else that was looking to get one cheap.
  21. I don't think you need anywhere near 2400W output. I use an X67C and it has 800W and I have no trouble picking up my 1/4 oz jig in 90+ feet of water. I paid just over $200 for mine. Matter of fact it does quite well in way over 100 feet for salmon.
  22. I'm pretty sure it was at the CNE boatshow way back in the late 80's, and cost around $300K back then. Best I recollect it was a front wheel drive system same as what they use in the wheel trans buses with tag axles.
  23. I don't think 60 is cold enough, mine go out in a big old Mcdonalds drink cooler at about 40 degrees in the garage. Even then, every other day I switch about 1/2 the water and add new from the sandpoint.
  24. Nice, just as I figured a yard of 550 cord would do, you have to go and post something shiny. I'll have to try that, never know when that salmon is going to give an extra tug. Saw it once at the Kemble tower in Owen Sound, Pffft, there goes buddies rod out of the holder, never heard so many uncatholic words in my virgin ears.
  25. Ya, that is big without a doubt, nice catch.
