  1. I would have to surmize that if the heater core was plugged, then regardless if he was at idle or Warp 9, coolant would no longer go through the heater core if it was plugged. I would lean to a partially opened and stuck thermostat.
  2. Jail is a waste of time along with community service, that's why there's so many repeat offenders. Ball and chain gang, street sweeping, dicktch cleaning, painting grannys house under close supervision by a gnarly retired firefighter, paying down the court time and victims fee and loss. Do it again, lets go visit some of the middle eastern countries, give me the hatchet, I'll cut off his thieving fingers, maybe better yet, smash his fingers with a 2# ball pein hammer, they'll grow so big, he'll never pick up anything, never mind pickin his nose.
  3. Just out of curiosity, why would there be any difference whether you place or money in a bank/trust co compared to a life ins co, as long as there is a named benificiary. Any 100% definite answers?
  4. Take a look at the Uniden or Shakespeare series of radios, good quality. Personally I've tried the handheld models, they just don't have the power to do justice when you need help. Do yourself a favour, get the 25 watt permanent mount and good quality antenna. The best radio with a wet noodle antenna is a waste of time. As for Humminbird products, I've never had any luck at all with them, period. Go check www.durhamradio.com or www.radioworld.ca for info, I prefer dealing with the first, better prices and service.
  5. A macro picture taken from arms length.
  6. The only thing I didn't like out there yesterday were the 2 Astro vans driving around, 8 inches of ice and water geysers are not amusing.
  7. Icing it? yes ice fishing
  8. I have a 16' with a 25 tiller, I troll the area around Owen Sound/Meaford. When the weathers nasty, there's always somebodies campsite and firepit to invade and shoot the bull while the waves calm down. I've seen many a day where even a 20+ footer would be nothing more than a statistic on the bay.
  9. Actually, it was the only crappie, 3 booger rockets, but the intent was to go and get a couple of perch just for a fishwich at lunch. I might try Gilford area tomorrow if it's not too blustery out.
  10. I'd look around and see if anyone else was there and go bug them for some info, next, make a big smokey fire, Wayne will fly by and think somebody needs rescuing. don't forget the SOS sign, dot over a square I think. All else fails, follow the "lay of the land" into the water and make an educated guess as to depth, go fish, make sure the drag isn't set too tight otherwise you might loose the first fish and your hook will be gone.
  11. There I wuz justa fishin on the ize, when all of a zudden, zing goes the drag, darn another boogger rocket, nooooo, it's a honkin crappie. A little bit of seesawing and fling...outa the hole he comes, near landed right in my sleighbox. Wasn't on Simcoe, or the river that comes in the south end. I was sworn to secrecy or the other guy will stab me with a rusty fillet knife.
  12. Pigeontroller: If there ever was one, that is a quoteable quote. Have a healthy respect for nature and the water and you won't find yourself in kaka.
  13. Good to see Chucks back on the ice, mighty fine looking whitie Ryan.
  14. There are some good ones in there, I guess I'll have to add a can of baby powder to the tackle box, just in case of a soaker.
  15. Well before they delete/lock it, maybe someone should send the MIB to his house.
  16. Nice chunky sized ones, good catch
  17. Take it to a laundromat that has the BIF front load machines and use a very mild soap to wash it on the delicate setting, then let it hang to dry, should be good again. Ha, fishindevil beat me to it.
  18. Finally got one worth taking a picture of, didn't think it was quite that long, but you can't stretch the stainless ruler
  19. Well, grounding to the boat is contrary to what I have been informed of, all lights and other electronic options always run ground wires directly to the battery to prevent electrolysis on aluminum boats. I would be more inclined to mount the stereo unit in a dry box with a good set of electrical connectors for speakers and power. That way, at the end of the day or when things get foggy, or damp overnight, you have a dry stereo.
  20. I kind of wondered about the legality of it too, seeing as how a downriggers intent is more to get the lure to a desired level, rather than setting the hook, although both are achieved.
  21. Different twist to many of these, http://www.automaticicefisherman.com/
  22. Hmmm, I see that guy can spell too.
  23. As a trivial point, it's not the first province that went that route of issuing a "receipt" for minnows. When I was stationed in MB in the early'90's, you had to have a filtered try again please issued from the minnow supplier, and that filtered try again please was only good for 3 days, after that, salt the minnows.
  24. 26. Why are hemorrhoids called "hemorrhoids" instead of "assteroids"? Probably 'cause it has to do with "hemo", blood leaking out, otherwise if it was assteroids, well maybe your butt would fall out and then you'd be in a bad situation.
  25. If I'm not mistaken the Yamaha exhausts to both, underwater and also has an above the waterline exhaust hole.
