Fisherman

The price has come down a lot on the Aqua Vu DVR, now 129 at Leb, I showed BPro and they matched, their regular price is $239, thieves.

Practical, fashion is just eye candy that has no taste.

Bring snowshoes, snowblower or tie a dog to each foot, looks like another foot of snow coming tonight, this is nuts.

And then there's probably a lot of anglers that couldn't handle being run over by a 350lb linebacker either

Don't ball them all into one group, just like any trade or profession, there is everything from pill doctors to crooked carpenters(those that can't hammer a nail and make a straight wall, shyster mechanics and plumbers that make your toilet back up. My oldest took the complete course along with some of the building code sections and is starting his own business, yes, the insurance costs are pretty high for them. Word spreads fast and a couple of bad raps and you're out of business. He did our house and my brothers just for a couple of test runs and I just about croaked, almost wrote a book by the time he was done, from everything that was satisfactory, met old code to suggested upgrades and things that required immediate attention. It covered everything visible, including a jaunt into the attic, up on the roof, furnace/HW check, electrical, plumbing, window and door caulking, jeez, the list goes on like the damm pink bunny. I think Rick may have had a bad apple do his.

Maybe I look at it differently, in "sports" there's usually a team involved, chasing balls, throwing balls, making hoops, etc, where as in fishing/hunting, yes there are also teams or groups, but the outcome is you may have something to eat in the end, barring a skunk. I would look at it as a passtime or hobby, obsession for some, time to wind down, etc, but not really a sport.

No, no, it's holding onto something long and round and vibrates a bit that's bigger than his own.

Snowing & Blowing...that would almost be a bit of an understatement, so bad at times that 15km/h is too fast, go another .5km and it's sunny, nutty weather.

It would be nice to get a transducer that doesn't have a million feet of cable attached, it can be a real PITA, I'm sure anyone that drives a tiller may need no more than 5 feet or so. Up the back of the bat and maybe another 2-3 feet, F/F sits across from the driver.

No, you will have to put some "expanded metal screening" over the ramps or the small tires of the snowblower may fall through, doesn't cost much.

Okay, lets try this one, Cliff, I have some mountainous terrain for sale in florida. These guys are like the guys that sell electricity/gas, etc, not out there for anything but the money, much better to go to a reputable home grown butcher(and I don't mean M&M's either) and get what you pay for.

There you go, I spend more time (and money) at that place than CTC will ever hope to see again.

We were up bon the weekend of the 18-20 Jan, found the simplest #6 hook with splitshot up a foot was best.

My neighbours advice, get a hydrograhic map of the area and bring a spare prop, the rocks are pretty hungry.

Don't know about too much more "black" ice for this season, seems like ya get a day of cold then it melts/rains or whatever to slow the icemaking process. The suns getting a little higher in the sky every day, doesn't help either.

Ya, looks like you need a wake up call too. 141 in a 100, bordering on the stupid zone, lose your vehicle for a week and $10K fine.

Not sorry for you, you're a danger on the road.

Well that'll all change thrusday night, looking for a low of -20, brrrrr, that'll harden things up a bit.

Another sad moment, hope the memories stay with you

Like usual, go to Princess Auto on Dixie, they have a variety to cover all the different weight capacities, remember you have to add your weight to the machine while loading/unloading, and they come with the saftey straps or chains. Oh, and not to forget, as much as some people will argue otherwise, tailgate cables are ment to hold the tailgate, not ATV's with a rider. Best to use your trailer

Dan, kindly read again, I made no inference to the people involved, rather the comment from the newspaper " Police are continuing to investigate what caused the van to wind up on the lake". Sorry if you took it the wrong way.

Unless the lake is right beside the road and the driver maybe lost control, I would think the main reason the van wound up on the lake was the driver, don't ya think.

Well by gawd it is a 2 stroke, didn't think Ariens would fool around with 2 stroke stuff, almost looks like a rebadged Toro.

2 cycle...I doubt that, unless your buddy has thrown the manuals and warranty papers away, it will give a list of all the repair facilities. "Seized the motor", that's why they have a dipstick.

and I'd like to find an easy way of feeding a couple yards of weedwacker line into the impellor intake ....injest a bit of that...and see how fast ya go.
