Great advertising..

About the biggest thing I've brought up by hand is a 1/2 brookie, lol! Maybe I'll try your theory out this winter

He lost his balance while his face was being smashed into the board, lol.

You don't buy a brand like Ranger, then go changing everything. If they were smart (and I'm sure they are), this will be nothing more then changes on paper.

A stick and line for brookies sure.. Not something I'd ever use for big lake trout though. You're handicapping yourself from the get go.

70k winds? I'll stay in bed.

Yeah, that was brutal. Saw the replay in the locker room at the gym... suspension time.

You're going to have to spend some money. As for reels, check out the Allen line. Great reels, really good prices.

I based my estimate on the back table, not the round one! lol

8-10 would be my guess.

6wt/8wt not going to make a huge difference. Personally I'd go with a 6wt.

Yup, not stopping up here. I'm not complaining, the snowys love this weather!

Good luck man! We gotta get out this year

Who cares about casting when you're trolling lakers and wanna get deep

You can even cheap out and use some leadcore to get down instead of using a full sinking line

2 points is 2 points! Definitely stole that one!

You got it. It doesn't make any sense.

Glenner, your story reminds me of when I failed to tie up the boat two summers ago on White Otter Lake. Sand beach, awesome camping site, we had 6 people there, so 3 boats. I beached our boat to the far right, my buddy Al's boat to the left and Steve's boat to the left of his. Super crazy storm that night, howling winds, just one of those crazy nights. I wake up at about 3am and gotta take a leak. I walk down to the water with my flashlight and the boat isn't there. I'm thinking, this isn't good our Lund is now up on some rocks getting smashed to bits because I forgot to tie the damn thing off!!!!! I look over and it is snuggled nicely inbetween Al and Steves boat, even had the bumpers out so zero scratches. I laughed good and hard at that one (And didn't bother telling the oldman either!) Don't ask me how that even happened, the physics behind it just make me shake my head.

Insane people come in all ages Customs was notified, he's done with it.

Another reason I really like flip over huts.

At least he didn't do something stupid like try and be a super hero. Drop them off, and get outta there. Let customs deal with them.

People seem to forget this..

Left about $2,000 worth of camera gear sitting on a boat ramp in Toronto. Buddy went back about 30 mins later and it was still there.

Eh, really what's the big deal... I bet he doesn't forget to do a wee bit of research the next time he goes to a foundation dinner or similar. It's embarrassing but that's about it.

Bugs are extremely weather dependent (as I'm sure you know).. I definitely wouldn't book one place over the other based on the bugs.
