  1. Seems about 10 days behind unfortunately.
  2. OP, if you're releasing those fish I'd highly suggest going barbless. Keep the pressure on and don't let them flop around on the surface, this is usually when they get off.
  3. That's the first thing I thought of, I was hoping you'd get a laugh out of it
  4. Simcoe lakers aren't very hard to figure out.. Once the opener hits, I usually jig them... Once a thermocline establishes, it's time to troll (although guys still jig them throughout the summer)
  5. I use braid on everything, except my riggers
  6. I think you'll need more then just a rod to cushion the zero stretch of the braid.. If not you'll be pulling hooks left and right. Maybe a 10-15ft leader might help a bit.
  7. Sure, but why? Only thing I run braid on is the dipsy setups.. The riggers get 20lb Trilene Big Game... A lot cheaper to spool!
  8. I've hiked that river from Little down to Nursery road It's tight, a tough place for 4in streamers, let alone back casts!
  9. I'm sure you'll get some good advice from the folks here, they're a handy bunch.
  10. Completely different area. That river is way to tight to toss big streamers
  11. Sounds like you need to build a casting deck + small platform to mount the motor. We did something similar on our old Legend. Worked out great.

  13. Yup, going to need a raincoat from the looks of it.
  14. That's definitely a sucker.
  15. Two more weeks! I hope Gbay is clear of ice for the pike opener.
  16. I buy all kinds of stuff off Ebay, I just didn't want to have to order another set of LEDs + controller and have it not show up. Seller refunded my $$$ no problem, but I want to get the boat wired up and didn't want to wait another 2 months!
  17. Thank you sir! I'd much rather order from Amazon than Ebay
  18. I ordered a set of waterproof LEDs + the wireless controller as well, never got here. If you don't mind, could you let us know which vendor you used? (I wouldn't be surprised if it's the same Ebay guy I tried)
  19. Glass half empty? Yeah, I'd say so... You whine more then a teenage girl.
  20. I'd probably call your outfitter... They'd have the best up to date info.

  22. What's wrong with revenue generation if it comes from poachers and the like? With a nice stiff fine, you better believe there's a little 'education' happening.
  23. Sounds looks open. Time to break out the planner boards and go wash some body baits
  24. What's knitting him a sweater going to help with?
