  1. FYI, you can also refuse the package due to the fees and negotiate a lower rate. I've done that a bunch of times with UPS when they were asking for something like 50% of the value of the package itself in brokerage!!!
  2. That's nothing to complain about at all.
  3. Lots of worms out with all this rain, I'm going to pic a dozen or so and give it a shot. Might up size to a bigger circle hook as well.
  4. Go as big as possible. You can never have enough power up front.
  5. 24V PD is probably your best bet. I've got a 80# 24V Terrova w/I-Pilot Link on the front of the Lund and it wasn't what you'd call a bargain, lol!
  6. Yeah, but how much over standard shipping are you paying? They get you one way or another
  7. Where I like to go in my truck, 2wd just isn't even an option.
  8. Never...EVER ship something from the US to Canada via UPS/FedEx, you're just asking for a nice fat bill. USPS or nothing.
  9. The 2WD versions are the bad ones, a lot 2WD guys actually upgrade to the 4x4 unit bearings.
  10. Maybe if you're talking about the big 2500 series trucks with the diesels, but a 1500 4x4 doesn't require any more maintenance then a 2wd model...
  11. Try rinsing them in the water you're standing in!
  12. I'm not doubting it felt like forever, especially with a monster like that on! LOL!
  13. I think some of these guys highly over estimate those fight times.. 1hr? Really? It was probably more like 15mins, lol!
  14. Now THAT'S customer service!! LOL!!!!!
  15. Anytime I use live worms they tend to miss the hooks and eat the worm! LOL!
  16. If you're a newbie to the steelhead world a guide like Mike suggested above is a great way to learn the ropes, quickly.
  17. I can't understand why people buy 2wd trucks to be honest.
  18. Yup, I'm really liking the talent they are bringing up from the Marlies. Good kids, hate to see them sent back down but a taste of the pros will just get them hungrier!
  19. Skip, I hope that boat has riggers on it! Simcoe lakers are just begging to be caught out of that beauty!
  20. 16 for 53 sounds like a steelhead report! Good job, that's a lot of toothy critters.
  21. Offense definitely isn't the problem, getting out of their own zone has been. So many stupid give aways and bad clearing attempts.. If they don't fix that, they aren't going anywhere.
  22. Follow the crowds, you won't be the only one there I can guarantee you that.
  23. I'm good with this. There's no reason to have that hook 4 inches from your bead.
  24. Nice jumbos!
