Fisherman

No he hopped into another smaller boat, makes the fish look bigger, lol.

And they have kids that are pre addicted.

Hahahaha, not Doug Measor.

OMG I just about croaked when I saw the price of them now, just looked at the packing and shipping bill, $100.57 US about 15 years ago.

Well, some people do however, without the pressure gauge, you don't know the actual psi in there. A 5L pot is about 5.2 US qt. that pot is pretty small, mines a 17 qt and there's a bigger one yet. I use mine to cook turkeys before canning, you'd barely get 2 wings into that one, lol. I would guess you might get 4-5 small or 4 medium jars in there. You're not supposed to fill them more than 2/3 full.

Ah heck, that'll buff right out. 🤣

Must be hard to pick out the cranberries and pumpkin seeds.

That what I say about brussel sprouts, cabbage rolls and any peppers.

I remember my brother used to buy them at the kensington market eons ago, a sunday treat on pumpernickle. I may have to go make that trip. Best are the fingerling smoked eels in n/w europe.

And I'll almost bet there are those who choose not to understand written english will go home with buckets of fish.

Yes, I can remember cranking the old hand auger until the folding point was even with the ice, even as young as I was then it was a long crank.

Yes, it's an unfortunate situation society has gotten into, my mom was a house mom, cook, clean and take care of the kids, my wife did the same, we managed on one salary, it's too bad that both have to "punch the clock" nowadays to make ends meet.

What is annoying to me when you look through the flyers and see the amount of pre cooked and prepared food, is it just me or is society getting extremely lazy or doesn't know how to cook food anymore. I can't ever remember eating Swanson TV dinners or any of that crap, dad would have taken the wooden spoon to mom, lol. I've had women stop me in the store and ask how to cook an item or "what are you going to do with that".

I can remember many years ago a bud and myself went out on cooks bay on 12 Dec, 6 inches of sold ice and loaded up on perch. One of those rare years.

Coldest I see is -10C tuesday/wednesday.

Well that looks like some pretty nice work. No idle hands at your desk.

A number of years back they had 2 trucks equipped with similar ones, turned out to be a massive money pit and then sold off on auction to Manitoba Hydro.

You and me both.

What Terry said. I still use my X67 and it will pretty much do the same thing. Unless you're intent on seeing bugs walk on the bottom of the lake bed, there comes a time when hype and moneys worth just don't justify the end.

I first saw them in the area about 6-7 years ago wondering what the racket was in the woods. When they get it in their head to make holes in trees, look out, the chips fly just about as fast as a chain saw.

Yes, that was me, but I don't think I would be pushing my boat around all day downrigging electrically. When you're 6-7 miles out, you do need the bigger motor to get you back

It really, really helps when you say where or a general location.

First time I've ever seen 2 that close together. Taken about 35M away with a 30x lens.

How about a fillet knife and cleaning board. Just sleep with one eye open after the 25th of Dec.

I wouldn't roll everyone into the same ball of wax, I have no need for holeshot and top end. I get up 10 minutes earlier and take my time, I don't have the "look at me" affliction, and there can be days when trolling/downrigging that you can be out for more than a couple hours and cover quite some distance.
