  1. I wanna see a CT with a truck camper in the back or a 5th wheel with my Lund attached drive up Hwy 17 and see how far it makes it before I need to stop for 45mins and recharge, lol. I think the CT is a wet dream and it's going to be more of a status symbol then anything else. It will make trips to Home Depot to pick up curtains. You're not going to see this thing on job sites or anywhere that requires a 'real' truck. This is all just one persons opinion, so take that with a grain of salt. The thing is electric motors aren't anything new, how long have bow and transom mount TM's been around for? Do people think Tesla is the first to think of an electric outboard?
  2. Spiny water fleas are nothing new.
  3. I still run Fenwick Riggerstix to this day, I wish I could find a few more. So much fun, especially when you're fishing for kings.
  4. The interior in my 11 year old BMW is better then any Tesla I've been in. That's the one place where they're really lacking, especially for the price range.
  5. You ever tie up super small stuff? Like midge emergers on #22/24/26 hooks? lol.
  6. Erie? Medium. You're reeling in drift socks all day, no way I've be fishing MH out there. I use medium Okuma GLTs for early season board fishing on Lake Ontario. Super cheap and do the job, also double up for Gbay salmon/trout fishing as well. As for downriggers, Scotty would be my choice. Grab a set of the 1106s or 1116s (Dual rod holders) and you'll be set. Add some 15lb weights and you're golden. Are you planning on running a mast or inline boards? If inline there are a bunch of choices (Church, Offshore, etc)
  7. You're going to be waiting an awful long time for that CT me thinks. My buddy just picked up a Model Y, it's cool and all and I love the tech, but that interior for that price? Yikes.. It's not even faster then my 335d (Which isn't stock mind you, but still).
  8. ICE motors aren't going anywhere.
  9. Last kick at the can this weekend I'm thinking before the boat is put to sleep for a few months.
  10. That sucks man. How bad was it?
  11. My Terrova already makes my Lund an EV
  12. Yup, those reels Ron puts out are on a whole other level. I'd say the same thing about your builds, maybe one day I'll get you to re-wrao my IMX.
  13. Lew, you can buy an offbrand from Amazon.ca. Just search the model # NB-13L and you'll have a bunch of choices. https://www.amazon.ca/DSTE-Replacement-Battery-PowerShot-Digital/dp/B00VLNHLE8/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=nb-13l+battery&qid=1606430264&sr=8-5
  14. I've got a 17 year old Yami 115 strapped to the back of my Lund. I don't need any convincing that's the only engine brand I'll ever run, lol.
  15. No way the guys fishing that tournament didn't know what was going on. They're just as guilty.

    Let's hope those US drifts open back up or it's going to be a traffic jam on the Canadian side I have a feeling they won't be though.
  17. It would look a lot worse then that if you had water intrusion. I'd say that's fine.
  18. Well we've got the pike dialed in on Gbay apparently. 18 down over 40ft on a 13 in grandma again. Had the heater and the top up.
  19. Where on the French did you go? I've never had a bad trip on the French.
  20. Thanks man! I gotta make it down to LSC and experience that craziness myself Goodluck out there
  21. I love Hartley Bay, lots of big fish have come out of that water.
  22. After seeing all the insane bait balls I have been for the past few weeks, it's hard to even think about going into 3ft of water. Back at it Thurs/Fri and probably Sat (with the top up, calls for rain). I'm waiting for that big heavy to make an appearance.
  23. Sitting home, not going to restaurants every other day, not going out the bars, not spending $$ here or there. Not surprised all the toy prices are going up. What type of boat are you looking for? Anything specific?
  24. I'd like to see those dealer take quads into a few back lakes I fish come winter time Time and place for everything.
  25. I dunno who you heard this from but perhaps they were drunk at the time? Snowmobiles aren't going anywhere.
