Good thoughts, but please make sure that what you are killing and keeping is a Pike. Juvenile Muskies and Hybrids look a lot like a Pike. A lot of casual anglers still don't know what they are looking for to distinguish a Muskie from a Pike, let alone at the juvenile stage. Seasoned anglers like yourself and other tournament anglers, have a much better idea regarding fin shape, patterns and submandibular pore count. Myself, I fish mainly for Muskies except in the hot dog days of summer when the water temps get above77-80 deg., then I will go after walleye and bass.

Not sure where it was caught, but I believe it was closer to Fenelon Falls. Which also makes sense. It probably migrated through from Cameron. Having said that, it may have been anywhere on Sturgeon. I have heard, but have no confirmation of Pike in Scugog.

Sorry to say, but the answer is yes.

All of the above as well as the Ottonabee River, Little Lake, Cameron and Sturgeon Lakes.

Yup....that's why it's the coldest room in the house. Warm house air rising up the flu and cold air replacing it. At least until you light a fire, then it will warm the room, but most of the heat is going up the chimney.

Have you checked the obvious? Fuse? Happened with my 1992 Exploder in 1998... Checked the actuator modules, but found it was a fuse.

Yup...Could have been me taking the pictures.......

Know exactly where it is... By the way, nice fish.

One of the best spots on the lake, this time of year..... Right off the end of the bay where I live.

Don't know if it's legal or not (probably not) to do when turning in a leased vehicle, but you could always change the size of the rim to 18". OR put used 20" on that are better than the ones now. Perhaps a wrecker might have some?

My wife and I and 4 other friends were at game 6 when Joe hit the Home Run....I still have the ticket stubs, but I lost the BACK TO BACK front page....

I don't believe in omens, but that Sax rendition of Oh Canada sounded like a funeral march..... Definitely different.

I am so glad to hear this. I felt the pain of both Shawn and James. Now comes the two year court battle.

I know it's an afternoon game, I was hoping the Rangers didn't.....LOL

I hope MLB tells the Rangers the game is tomorrow and the start time will be the same as today...4:30 I was waiting to see what would happen if and when Bautista met Stinky at second... Both were professional, especially when he hit the home run and just laid the bat down. I think he blew Stinky a kiss as he rounded second....

Probably he had nothing to do with the booking date for the wedding...Happy wife...Happy life.... Just saying.

Heading to Wolsley Bay for a week just after Thanksgiving. Muskie hunting...

It's not just about the metallurgy of the hook that contributes to the decomposition of it. The enzymes in the fish where the hook contacts flesh also contributes to the rate of decomposition. So long as it wasn't deeply hooked and is preventing the fish from swallowing food, or hooked in a gill, it should be OK.

That's not a bad thought Dan, but when I had a new furnace installed and duct work added to an upstairs bedroom above the garage, the duct came through the wall from the house and along the garage ceiling into the upstairs room. I asked if I could install a heat/air cond. vent into the garage at the same time. His answer was NO. According to code it can't be done because of possible carbon monoxide transfer to the living quarters. Codes in other areas may be different though, but it made sense to me.

You might want to check out LeBarons. I heard thru the grapevine that after all these years, they were closing up shop. Could be some great deals there for what your looking to replace.

My wife made me purchase a generator prior to Y2K2.....I bought a Yamaha portable 2600. Best investment idea she had. It has come in extremely handy a number of times. Ice and wind storms, vehicles hitting utility poles, even brown outs. Reasonably quiet. When needed and depending on time of year, I can run two fridges, several lights, the fan on a propane fireplace and the TV or computer. When the power was out for the ice storm, it ran for three days straight on five tanks of gas. I have thought many times of going to a larger generator that will run the house and come on automatically, but so far haven't pulled the trigger.

Sure looks like they're just Mailing This One In..... Saunders is really showing no interest in what is happening around him with that lackadaisical flip to third. Edwin appears to be more interested in going home to the Dominican soon.

to paraphrase Chuck Heston "YOU WILL HAVE TO PRY THE ROD FROM MY COLD DEAD HANDS" You have made a lot of friends on this board Lew and I hope you take some of them up on their offers once in a while.

Unreal....just another horror story regarding our Ontario Health System. I'm of the age that remembers a Dr. making a house call.
