floater

So I still don't know where to go find these boots near the GTA. Angling outfitters and Royal are my only options?

I had to dumbp200 liters of water contaminated fuel. They tried to keep my 10 gas cans and I said no way. I went to a restaurant and grabbed a bunch of empty fry oil containers. Dropped those off and no issues.

Reeds Outdoors. Off of Sunrise Park right on Lakeshore drive. Great service and the double huts are awesom. If you have enough guys you get two huts. One for fishing and cooking and the other for sleeping. Always on the fish. Perch, pike, ling and a few pickeral.

Part number of cable is usually stamped on the black plastic part or painted on the black sleeve.

That is why I tell the wife if I don't catch it or hunt it we aren't eating it.

Thanks for the tips and well wishes. I only picked the number 10 000 cus I know what insurance companies are like. It was a large tackle box with several hundred lures and body baits in it along with all the terminal tackle and what not. He'd been collecting all the tackle for a long time. This was the only item the brothers and I wanted to share to remember him by and it's gone. I will contact the insurance company and try to 'renegotiate'. Thanks again s g

All valid points and I've considered that some of the tackle was quite old. I told them that and they said come up with a price list to replace all the tackle. That is why i'm asking what an average cost of a large tackle box with three trays on either side would be.

Thank you. I proved to the Insurance Company that they went fishing with all the tackle and stuff they have taken with them over the last forty years. Pics of the interior of the car after immersion showing everything. That does'n't appear to be good enough for them and their flow charts. A customer for over 60 years and this is the way you are treated.

Sorry to have to ask this but we recently lost both parents in a car meets water mishap. I'm trying to make a claim on the fishing contents of the car that were lost or stolen while the car went from Coroner to Police to Impound yard. The fathers tackle box is missing and it has over 60 years of tackle in it. It was a large 3 tray on either side box. I've put in a claim of 10 000 for the tackle box and contents but the Insurance is giving me a hard time as I don't have an receipts for anything in it or any pics as they were too old to have phones. I'm wondering if my amount of 10k is too high? I've been buying tackle for about thirty years and my tackle bag is easily over ten K by now I figure. Not sure what to do. Thanks. for any info on what you may have accumulated over the years.

Thanks for the info. I actually found a new control unit on Amaz.... I guess i'm just going to fix the Panther and re-install it. I like the way I can smooth out the ride. Thanks again.

I just wrecked my control box on my Panther Model 40 tilt unit. I'm looking at a jack plate now to replace it. I have a 30 Yamaha on a 14 foot deep and wide tin boat. Would the Jack Plate raise the bow a bit like the Panther? or is it for just running in shallow water? I used the boat without the Panther and the front really plows with one other person on board sitting in the middle. The motor is tilted back to second last hole.

Just fished the Massasauga yesterday. Pike were still in the bays but seemed like only one pike in each bay. Caught a few bass just outside the bays and most hit in 20 fow. Mostly spinner baits for the pike and jigging worms for the bass. Nothing of any great size but fish came throughout the day.

My average size is 22 to 25 pounds. No slot that I am aware of

I've always done well in Little Lake in Peterborough. Right in the center of town. Rogers Cove off of Maria Street. Peaches and Cream corn works the best.

Fantastic. I can't wait to get back up there with a bigger boat!!

A little slow or you found my stash! Oh wait! Can I even call it a stash any more?? Supplies??

I buried salmon guts and bones under my weed plants and they grew into bushes!! And didn't taste fishy!!

We had a hunt two years ago and a nice Doe should have won an Academy Award. It ran down the hill towards two of us and hit the ground and lay there. Neither of us had fired but a guy on the other side of the hill got a shot at it. It lay there for a bit then then tried to get up several times but kept falling over. We thought for sure it was mortally wounded. One guy went to take another shot at it and it jumped up and ran away. No blood and no hair anywhere. We called the Ministry and they told us it couldn't be CWD because it wasn't standing in water and not too worry about it! We thought for sure it was either a very good actor or had CWD.

I too found my salmon getting too salty. The recipe called for two cups of kosher salt. i now use less than a third cup salt to two cups of brown sugar when doing a dry brine. Still a bit salty but the sweetness of the brown sugar and the final Maple Whiskey brushing make up for it.

Thanks. I will try out my crappy French and hope for success

I wonder if I can get Newcastle Disease in spray form? A few bottles on the boat would be nice:)

Thanks for the info. We will check out that mine.

Heading to the Gaspe area for a two week drive. I'm wondering if anyone has gone that way and fished for Mackeral? We will be staying at Gaspesie and Forillon National parks and driving all around the coastal areas. I don't want to buy the Atlantic Fishing licence so we won't be fishing any inland waters.

I was at Sturgeon Point PP three weeks ago. Water was very warm and didn't catch a single fish. Fished from Sturgeon Bay out towards main channel heading to Georgian Bay. Nice area to bomb around in though. Made it out to the Light House for a peek. Never seen so many Boston Whalers before. Good luck

On my 14 tin with a finished flat floor I removed the entire interior and took it to the lake for a float. I had about 30 leaking rivets and the entire base of the transom was allowing water in. When I filled the boat with water I had no leaks at all. Re riveted the entire floor area and a new butyl gasket and rivets on the transom and its dry as a bone now.
