  1. That's not a bad idea. I'll see what I can figure out.
  2. I hope FoCal can fix the issue, it's just a bugger doing that @ 400mm lol.
  3. I've got FoCal 2.0, so I'll see if it requires from microadjustment, but the changes I made in the field the other day didn't help at all (Tried anywhere from -20 to +20) What sucks is that I know it's not the lens, it was razor sharp on my 70d.
  4. Thanks, but I'm having major issues with this new 7d mk ii I picked up.. I think it's going back to Canon for calibration. It hunts like crazy when in AI Servo mode (Which is what I use all the time for birds in flight) which leads to tonnes of front and back focusing. To be honest, my 70d was better out of the box, lol.
  5. Unfortunately I think the Leafs best chance at a really good D man is going to be the draft. Let Hunter do his job. There's no rush, people need to remember this is a rebuild.
  6. Yup, great game! How'd the Sens make out tonight? lol
  7. What are you looking at? by billmarz, on Flickr Hiding out by billmarz, on Flickr
  8. Right on man! Absolutely fantastic! Whities are an absolute riot, you ever try fishing them on dries in the summer? Great pattern and a crap load of fun.
  9. Good idea Dave, I should put some jumper cables in the boat.
  10. My oldman likes to leave the radio on and the master kill switch, lol. Luckily it doesn't take the kicker too long to charge the battery enough to start the big motor.
  11. Matt, we're talking about the Leafs not the Sens :)
  12. I've attempted to help people and have been told that they've got a handle on the situation, lol. I just stand back and watch the show.
  13. ^-- Yup, it's a 2 second deal to disconnect the entire thing.
  14. I disconnect ours from the kicker when I'm making fast runs with the main. Although it really depends on your setup, both ball ends have lots of movement, you might be fine with keeping it attached all the time. Just check it in the garage before you hit the water.
  15. Can't fish shallow enough, look for wood, keep moving until you find them.
  16. You'll get a lot more boat for your money on the used market.
  17. Sewing machine oil will work in a jiffy.
  18. I'd be nailed for sure, we never keep a patch of skin on our fillets, lol.
  19. Yeah, you really can't compare a glass boat vs alum for ride quality. It's a whole other level.
  20. I've only got first hand experience with two, Legend and Lund. The Legend was a 15ft widebody and was a fantastic boat (Purchased around 2004 I believe). Very well biult, never leaked a drop and we beat that thing pretty good. Second boat was(is) a Lund 1700 Pro Sport. Handles the big water with ease and for us is the perfect fishing machine. Small enough I can drop it into the lake on even the worst of boat ramps (Or no boat ramp at all), big enough to handle the Great Lakes and Nipigon when they whip up out of the blue. Both boats had the max hp ratings for the hull (40hp 4stroke Honda on the Legend, 115 Yamaha on the Lund, along with a Yami T8 High thrust kicker).
  21. Our SO wins vs losses are dismal, lol. Babs has to start using different guys I think. Why no Nylander?
