  1. sometimes its more about the message you send as a coach
  2. The same marketing that tells me I need a new $500 driver in my golf bag every 2 years
  3. If it was bronte it would be a shopping cart or a roll of orange snow fence Nice work
  4. four most powerful words I know TAKE A KID FISHING!!!
  5. In my early days I spent a lot of time on a charter boat on Lake Ontario (Port Credit). Used pretty much everything over the course of about 8 years out there helping buddies with their business's. Spend a bit more and pick up Cannon's, Big Jon or Walkers. You'll never regret it. I bought my Mag 10's (2 of them) in 1989. They've transitioned through 3 boats and are still going strong. These are not one-two times a year use either. I fish Lake Ontario all summer and Temagami for 2 weeks. I like my downriggin! In all that time I've only ever changed up the clutch drag washers on both and had one end pulley crack. In total a $50 spend in parts. If I ever have to buy new again I'll buy Cannon's again but with four foot arms this time
  6. G2G at the firehall. Tuesday night wing special
  7. For me it's #19 but for Paul Henderson - 1972
  8. Posted this a while back but here's an update. Liquidation world still has some sports cat(1500 btu) and black cat(3000 btu) heaters for $35. I just picked up a Black cat and tested it out in the garage. Tested it out in the garage. Kicks out a lot of heat. For propane cylinders guys, head into the tool area at CTC and get a 1lb propane bottle for the soldering torch for $1 less than the same green Coleman bottle in the camping section. Now all I need is to finally finish the financial plans for 2011 at my work and they'll let me take my holidays - Friday was supposed to be my last day. I'd say I'll be done around Wednesday so fishing Thursday/Friday and all thrrough next week.
  9. Must have been Sens fans
  10. Have seen these advertised on WFN. Great idea as cost of material is pretty cheap. pay the kids to pick rocks from the local river. I paid some good money a while back for a few camo sinkers for carp, same idea - they were rocks with holes drilled in them
  11. make sure you get a cover or rig up a snow deflector for the front half. these kick up snow like mad. Had one in our group up in Temagami doing some back lake fishing. Made a big mistake of putting the power auger in that one and by the time we got in the sleigh was full of snow - couldn't see the auger. Took a while to get it started.
  12. number one on my bucket list - fishing/outdoor personality to meet (seeing I already met Dave - is that sucking up enough!!!)
  13. don't know why the bother, there's no fish in Temagami!!!
  14. I've always been a Carol Burnett fan love Love Tim Conway Enjoy
  15. Fabricland has several colours, patterns and materials to choose from. I bought about 15 yrds of the base green camo pattern for making ground blinds and it was pretty cheap
  16. Is that this year Wayne on the big lake up north I'm staying at home this year over Xmas to new years but maybe I should be planning to be a visiting relative and impose on the family up there.
  17. I think I counted a total of 18 flakes on the driveway last night in Oakville. Cold and windy but so far no snow.
  18. One of my all time fav hey look it's enrico pallazzo!!!
  19. Fishing the peir is all about tide and timing. If you see the peir gets busy then the locals are on to a bite of some sort. Talk to the guys in the bait shops nearby not at the peir. I always make a stop at Indian shores or at Johns Pass for some shore fishing but I'd much prefer to do a 1/2 day charter on one of the big party boats. Hubbards is at Johns Pass but I have had really good days with Double Eagle out of Clearwater. I took down my muskie tackle and picked up 2-3 oz sinker/bait rigs at the local bait shops. Squid pieces (provided by the boat) will get you bit by the little guys but pick up your own bigger bait like frozen sardines, whole squid/shrimp. Get there early and pick a spot at the back of the boat. Great day on the water and doesn't bust the bank. Nothing like fresh caught snapper and grouper
  20. no experience with their trailers but when my boat trailer was in needs of parts and repair they were great to deal with. Got everything I needed and prices were very good. I've been looking at their ATV trailers and tryng to get some pricing.
  21. Are you trolling with the 115? If so you should be putting enough juice back in the battery. Downrigging all day while running a color sonar will drain down the battery. Suggest putting a 12v gauge on your dash to keep an eye on this. I do the same in my boat and have the biggest amp cranking battery I can buy
  22. No stretch Braided fishing line in mid 80's GPS plotting and electronic maps 90's ish and now side imaging
  23. I launched out of Crystal Beach last week and thought to myself then this place would be a real nasty trying to load/unload a boat with the wrong wind. Low water in Erie doesn't help. It was calm when I was there and still there was less than 3ft of water off the ramp for a ways before it dropped off. They also pulled the docks last week so it's tricky getting in to drop off guys. Unfortunate and hope they were all right.
  24. Well the cat is kind of out of the bag with this stuff now all over. I started doing home made ones a few years ago and snuck them down the holes while perch fishing on simcoe so my buddies didn't see them. In my opinoion they did work when on areas that had very little to no cover. Best was way out in 20+ feet of water or when on hard rock bottom Here's how you can make your own guys. Go to Dollarama and the sell 3 different plastic plants that are about 4-5 ft long just like the ones in the link. Add a 3 oz sinker to the bottom of them and then tie in some green garden foam around the top leaves to make them float. I tied on some heavy fishing line and dropped them around the holes I was fishing.
  25. Sounds just like our day last Thursday. Loads of guys hitting the big shoal on the south side. Good thing you got out Saturday as the winds really blew up Sunday. You like the new Lowrance units? I'm really enjoying that bird Aaron
