Fang

drop by the salvation army stores once in a while Joey. Back when I was tying I picked up some amazing fur collars, hats and feathers for just pennies.

yes they do jump. its more from being startled in the tank than just jumping. I lost a really nice black pirahna as it knocked the canopy off and ended up on the floor sometime in the middle of the night. Don't know if you've already bought but if your haven't try and find peacock bass. I used to tanks and went through all the cichlids, snakeheads, oscars,.... By far the most enjoyable fish I ever had for activity, color and mixing with other fish were peacock bass. I bought them in mississauga from Dragon aquarium - Chinese mall on Dundas. They also have an incredible arrowana selection

played a few times. get the size/calibre of paintball they sell and buy some before you go. put them in the freezer and shoot the people that peeve you off

any particular sites you used to find used fishing boats good ones/bad ones?

From my BPS experience it's hit and miss. Most of the time with reels and lures I don't get duty charges. Last rod order from the states was with Albright and I think the size of the rod tube got that order hit. I ordered some reels from them a few weeks later at a higher $ value and it sailed through with no duty. I always consider duty as a convenience fee for not having to get dressed and got out to a store.

Good on ya Stoty, Amazing opportunity. These don't come along often so take advantage of them. No one has even picked up that you as one of the OFC community (one of our own) is doing a national TV show because of what they know not who they know. Keep at it and keep your contacts up to date. I've met a few of these TV guys over the years, business and non business related. Some are great and some are a little rough Italo and Henry did some in store seminar days back in the 80's at lebarons when I worked there. They seemed alright guys and were very friendly to me. They did what they were paid to do and that's push product. I don't have the same good experience with several of the top ontario bass pros of that time. When these guys came in the store for seminars of event days it was awful. Here a shot from 2 years ago guiding on temagami. Neat couple of days and memories I'll not soon forget

Wow I must be in their files. Been checked many times over the years. Three times just last ice fishing season (2 Simcoe, 1 Lake Joseph. Even got pulled over on the 400 last summer to check fish limits and boat trailer. Always run into them on the weekends off Bronte on Lake Ontario. They pull along side do a quite life jacket, fishing license and off again. Don't even have to stop trolling. It's when you don't have the basics that they start looking deeper for safety, ownership, empty beer bottles.

Will be in that neck of the wood same time and the mainstay up there is a bottom bouncer 1/2-1 oz and a worm harness to cover water. Start off with #3 blades - orange, red, greens and move up in size. Sometimes even a #2 blade is the ticket. You can circle the lake trolling the shoreline but find the rock shoals in 15-30 FOW. Evening jig bites are good and we catch quite a lot on slip floats with small jig and worm/leech. Worms are all you'll need in bait. If you want minnows just take a dip net with you and check the beaver lodges. You might have to check a few places but you shouldn't have to travel too far find another beaver lodge. Loads of pike too. Try casting some xraps or other minnow baits up on top of the rock shoals in the evenings

The Rapala Tough line is very high memory. Although I've been running 20 lb on my riggers and it as good as my old standby Maxima green If you can get a hold of any of the Finesse line it's much better and at that price it's good for a few trips and then change it out

I just spent about a week researching price and features. Best to buy a custom cover through the US. Dollar exchange can't be beat and loads of on line site to compare $ I finally decided on a mooring/travel custom fit for my crestliner 1750 $258.67 USD. Cost me $80 for shipping. Should get it next week so not sure if I will get hit with duty but who cares. I got the bow mount electric motor and engine hood. Color matches my boat too. These guys were best $ http://www.boatcovers.com/ I checked some of the other sites and you can get a semi custom fit for a bit less but I'd prefer the exact fit here's the link right to your boat http://www.boatcovers.com/product_info1.php?cPath=1_198&products_id=5863

Bronte outdoors has a great selection of them

I will not let my 11 yr old son read this!

Had the same problem with my 2002 115 Merc last year. Spider web was completely blocking the port. Took it inot the marina thinking I needed a new impeller. A good blast from an air compressor fixed it right away. Compressed ait may not be strong enough depending on where the blockage is. Mine was in the lower end and pretty big from what the tech told me.

Was out driving around today and noticed a big sign out in front of the Holiday Inn on Harvester Rd in Burlington Flyfishing Show April 10th Seminars Displays Exhibits

great article on Ontario Out of Doors, Fishing Annual. Lists the launches. St. Catherines marina, Port Dalhousie are the most common. I think there is also a public launch around the mouth of the welland canal i think. April sees the lakers and chinook salmon with rainbows and browns mixed in. Good brown trout bite in shallow when you can find them. Most tried and true methods early are boards with minnow plugs,spoons in shallow and then head out with riggers and boards looking for the kings. I never got into a shallow bite last year. fished anywhere from 60 to 200 off Dalhousie last year. Great laker fishery and it coughs up some big brutes every spring. The area from the mouth of the Niagara right through to in from of Hamilton Harbor will have fish in the spring. Invest in a VHF as loads of us are all plugged in out there and sometimes you'll get a helpful hint whether fish are in tight or sitting out in 15-200ft.

I think mines a 2000 or 2001. It's in the driveway but all tarped up for the winter still. Will be getting it ready soon. If I can get in her and take the floor measurements I'll send the to you. Is it just the bottom level you need - where the driver pedastals are mounted to

I've used 3 different sets over the years on a 24V Minn Kota First set was Interstate 27's - they were alright Kirklands from Costco - noticed I got a lot longer between charges, maybe I just ahd a bad Interstate. Enegizers (best $ is Walmart) seem alright after first season - no problems. I just could not spend the extra $ on the optimas and feel I was getting that much better performance

When on shopping trips to Buffalo with the family, one stop I always make is inot the Topps right beside Gander Mountain. Bush Beans are sooooo gooood!!! Eat em cold right out of the can! Still have 2 cans sitting on my shelf at home but will look for them a wallyland.

Not really what you asked for but a fun site to browse through to pass the time. Never know what you'll find crashtoys.com

Launch is at Queenston or you can put in from Port Dalhousie and make the run down. Queenston puts you right on 2 of the most popular drifts. I learned a lot from http://www.outdoorsniagara.com/ look for the map to show more popular drifts. I've only made a few trips and still in learning mode. Watch boundaries that put you in US waters and make sure you have everything in your boat for a safe trip. DO NOT ANCHOR!!!!! It's drift fishing with roe, streamers, minnows mostly. Get your bait on the bottom. You'll loose a fair bit to snags first few trips.

I'm in the same boat, looking to pick one up for next years hunting/ice fishing season. What I've been doing is reveiwing kijiji ATV listing's weekly to give me an idea of asking prices. After a couple of weeks you'll see the same ATV's relisted at lower pricing. Auto trader seems to have a lot of dealers and not much private sales Without seing make and model I'd say a 2001 should be in the $3.5-4K range

TMH when are you there in July. My families always up there last 2 weeks. We bunk in with Rick and stay in the little cottage on the dock. If you see a red crestliner parked on at his dock drop by. We'll go terrorize the smallies up in kokoko or obabika. We always do a couple campfire nights and get the guitars and crown royal out so drop by Paul

Aw Brian you had to mention that. Looks like a trip to Fortinos in the morning. I hate getting these cravings. Worst part is my son eats as much as I do with this stuff so it's double the price. I think I can still get 2 pounds of king crab for $18. Oh what the heck it's a four pound night and maybe I'll even splurge for name brand beer as the leafs will extend the winning streak Dynasty of the future Stahlberg Caputi That's just pitiful!

sounds like a bit of inside information. If they did advertise that it would have been a stampede. I'm feeling a little sour just cause I didn't get one. So the $ I was going to spend there next weekend I'll think I'll spend at LeBarons. I'm taking my ball and going home now!
