  1. Those snow dog traction engines cost well over $4000, saw one at the Barrie Ice fishing show a couple weeks ago. You can get one of these for about the same price, maybe less. https://www.irbisusa.com/irbis-t150/
  2. That's why they invented cans, put them in a cooler room temp and take out one at a time.
  3. Nice vid, thanks, I'm sure the others will appreciate it.
  4. If the boat is upside down, there's a pretty good chance there's a big air pocket helping it stay afloat too, just stay with it.
  5. Nice to hear from you again.
  6. What the above said for sure. Pay attention to marine weather forecasts, they sell cheap receiver radios. Let someone know where you're going and return time. If it's borderline bad, I'll err on the side of smart. I could tell you a story of a bunch, probably 6-7 boats that went out during the Owen Sound Spectacular about 6 years ago. Flat calm sunny afternoon that turned into something like the perfect storm movie in a very short time. Poo pooers that didn't believe the forecast.

  8. Often wonder why so many people refer to the lake as Lady when it was named after Lord Simcoe's father, Capt John Simcoe
  9. No, the word starts with an A.
  10. Well if it ain't froze by now, it never will, -34/39 here this morning. Brass nuts cold. Just looked at the Barrie cam, white as far as you can see. https://www.barrie.ca/City Hall/Webcams/Pages/default.aspx
  11. That's beyond rude temperatures.
  12. you just haven't found the right bait for him, lol.
  13. Best of health to all for without it, life can be pretty bad. Play safe on the ice, don't want any more stats.
  14. I did the shift stuff for 25 in the CF and another 10 years as a dispatcher, you end up working one or the other. Those with kids and singles were always given first choice, rightly so. I do the cooking at Christmas so I'm home..but looking at the fishing reports.
  15. Solo unless it's people I'm comfortable with. Sometimes the jokes and topics can be a little off the deep end.
  16. It's been a while since the store opened at the old Lebaron store on Woodbine close to #7. Has anyone gone and what are your honest thoughts. Wondering if it's worth it to stop by going down to my bro's place.
  17. I think I'm going to sit on the park bench and wave at everyone going to work in the morning, lol.
  18. Still moving with cranky bones. 3 more scheduled days to work and then it's retirement. Can't quite wrap my head around that idea yet.
  19. Nice, I'm tired of winter already and it's only been here for a couple of hours.
  20. Nice of you Doug, lots of lonely folk out there.
  21. After a decade of price gouging on the price of bread they're going to give you a $25 coupon. Oh boy, struck it rich. If you figure you buy 1 loaf of bread every week, 52 loaves a year times 10 years, that around 520 loaves, give or take. Not saying how much they gouged us per loaf, but that's another screw the customer deal.
  22. Suspicious about what?
  23. There are reports of people fishing the lake across from RVH, parking might be a head scratcher. The south end of Cooks Bay also has people out fishing already, parking is a lot easier on Gilford Rd. A couple more days of cold and it should be ok.
  24. Chris Rea, Driving home for Christmas. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDt3u2Ev1cI
