Fisherman

they are too, but got to remember, while fishing from the dock, you're not "ice fishing", you're a land lubber and can only use one rod.

Well that's beyond, "it sucks" they take our money with no customer service. I would sent Clam Corp an e-mail or letter outlining the power of the internet when it comes to customer service. I'm sure we're not their biggest consumer simply by population numbers, however when this hits every fishing board north of the border, they'll either be rethinking their position or loose a lot of Cdn customers. Let us know how you make out.

Looks like Nippissing is just about totally frozen over, that'll make the hut ops and anglers happy for a Jan 1st start to the season. http://coastwatch.glerl.noaa.gov/modis/mod...on.143.250m.jpg

For you and only you, I hope every rivet under the waterline is loose

Next time we have soft water, take your boat and F/F to a spot with about 30-40 feet of water on a calm day. Your transducer angle may not be in exactly the sweet spot. It may look good on land, level side to side and front to rear, however, when the boats in the water, the way the boat sits in the water can completely change that. I know I have to have my transducer tilted nose down a bit if I want to see my cannonball at 75', doing that, the fish don't show as a full arch, only partial, if I tilt it slightly nose up, I loose the cannonball, but see the fish better.

Turn off the fish ID symbols. A F/F "sees" things in the water, bugs, leaves, algae and fish(if they're there). It has no way of knowing the difference, but if there is something, it will show it, and, with the fish ID on, you think there's all sorts of fish. Do a simple test, hang a jig and rubber worm so that the F/F sees it, shows up as a fish, eh?

#1. Don't tell storys, and "they" won't know any better, call TD Primmum, it's also on line. I'll bet you can get the basic coverage for around $120-$150 a year to keep it legal. What do you use it for, puttering around on the farm and local trails where no permit is required.

Who is the insurance company? I know some will only give you the basic PL/PD with no fire/theft/collision for the older machines.

When you check the buy and sell paper, pay real close attention to the SCAMs, late model ATVs going for next to nothing. We have a couple of Yamaha 400's at work, enough power to get you around, independant suspension and lockable diffs. Both are used for plowing our parking lot in the winter, no problems with them.

Ah, I don't think so, with that logic, you could find someone to put a set of skis and tracks on your pick up and call it an oversized snowmobile. My ATV floats and has provisions for an outboard, but it's still an ATV, not a boat.

When you click on that link, look to the right, "MANUAL", it's a qick download, shows how to assemble it, it sure looks like the normal flip over hut.

"Leaf fans deserve better than this crap year after year", well maybe if the dumb donkey fans keep supporting them and paying and paying, it's their own fault. Quit paying for a year, leave the arena seats empty and see how fast some heads roll and find staff and players to accomplish what they're paid to do. Isn't that the way it works in the real workplace. See the uprights....your butt is the next one that's going to be punted through it, careful of the landing, it might hurt.

He could become useful in a couple weeks on the lake, but then again, he just might fall down into his own hole.

I don't care how big that 2x4 is that you got strapped across the rear end, if you fall in, you're on yer own.

This is better than saturday morning cartoons at times, now how the heck am I supposed to hold that MIG welder steady, there's a keyboard full of snoffee and the wife can't figure out why I'm laughing.

Heck he just takes that single Cessna up to about 100,000, right bank, shoots a couple photos with a 3 foot lens and presto. Or you could go here, click the GL area you want to see. Only problem is cloudy days, all you see is cottonballs. http://coastwatch.glerl.noaa.gov/modis/region_map.html

Ya, you can grow some pretty big tomatoes on Bull. Still taste a bit funny though.

OMG let the processed bovine rudiment begin. "Having the lowest operating costs of any outboard engine means that powering with an Evinrude E-TEC can save consumers up to $1,600 per year in fuel and maintenance costs." I haven't spent anywhere remotely close to that in the last 13 years of owning my Honda. If computer screens could exude the smell, it would smell like a western cattle ranch with that line.

Good, hope the freezing continues without the snow cover.

You had better get a legal interpretation of residence, rented ice huts are NOT. Maybe "up north" things are done different, but the rules are still the same. Look under the LLA.

Why not just go and buy a new boat, it will solve a lot of your headaches.

Oh boy, now we really have some logic, you drive, you're in control, the PO says stop, you stop, you don't, you suffer the consequences of your actions. I really feel sorry for the other driver that lost her life and the grief the family goes through.

You think that's bad, with the public stupidity of buying sooo much on credit, and low mortgage rates being a big one, people are maxing themselves out to their maximum allowable debt right now. Just wait until the interest rates start rising next year. At a 140% debt load, what does that mean? A lot, and I mean a lot of people have no clue. If you make a $100 a week after taxes and you are spending $140 dollars, that means $0 is going on credit somewhere, sooner or later you have to pay that accumulating $40 a week. Now add a few more zeros and start smelling the brown stuff, and I don't mean coffee.

Nobody has mentioned it, but, the first $1000 doesn't count on the Home Reno rebates.
