Brian, I try to keep it simple but also tie for the fish I'm going after. A double surgeons for leader > tippet is fine for small resident fish where you using really light tippet (I find anyhow). I always use a clinch or improved clinch at the fly. If I'm going after big residents and tossing big streamers, I'll use a double UNI for leader > tippet and an improved clinch at the streamer.

Well yeah, if I didn't know to pull in I wouldn't pull in. But it's not like I'd go all Vanishing Point on them either, lol! If they wanna pull me over down the road, by all means.

What other criteria do you think they should use for spot checks?

A road block on a 400 series highway? lol. So many rebels in this thread. Pull over, and help them do their jobs. If you've got nothing to hide, what's the worst that can happen? They take 20-30mins of your time? Oh the horror!!!

Pike can be so frustrating.

I've caught pretty much everything on that silly spoon. Giant brookies, walleye, lakers, pike,, and bass. Always one of my go to lures.

Very interested to see which Sens team shows up tonight. Do or die!

LOL @ Matt!

Did the Pens show up to the last game or did they send their AAA farm team? lol

Dive in and hug them.

Hero drifts put fish on the bank, lol!

Bah, you should see some of the cat fish people post Go back to that lake and find the crappie! There's gotta be more then one

I loved that movie.

I miss the 80's :)

The next time I need bearings for my skateboard I'll look them up :)

So basically they couldn't find anyone to work?

Good job, just an FYI though, I wouldn't be taking pics with OOS fish and posting them anywhere online. I know you're excited but you don't want to get yourself in trouble.

Move the team to Quebec, at least they'll support them, lol.

Pretty sure they'd be classified as muskie under the regs. Good job man! I've yet to boat one of those beauties.

Pretty much all ceramic bearings are noisy, although they do quiet down a bit once broken in. SS bearings for me next time.

While all you guys are fishing Muskoka, I think I might hit a few honey holes in Gbay Let's hope this weather has them turned on. Goodluck out there! Some cows in that lake.

I run ABEC 7 ceramic hybrids in my two Calais (100a, 200) and my Shimano Antares AR , , They cast a mile but they are pretty noisy. I'd probably go with SS if these end up failing.

I think his point is that Ottawa sucks against Toronto in the play offs. Unless I'm missing something here.

World casting distance record is with a baitcaster, lol.

I'd assume he's got an onboard charger, that's what I plug the genny into.
