Absolutely man, I don't mind having a good heated debate once in a while. No harm no foul I love fishing the big lake, hoping to get the Lund out there this year. Got my Scotty 1106's all ready to go, just need to pick up some linecounters for the dipsy rods and a temp sensor for the riggers. I'm also a Leafs fan btw Perhaps we are both crazy! lol

Whoops, I guess we should get back on topic, lol! I usually remove mine because I find the fish tend to wrap up in them and get hooked in the eye/face/whatever.

Crackheads aren't going to declare war on anyone, including you The general public can't go around shooting people, just think about what you're saying for a second man. Perhaps we both just have a case of winter fever and should let sleeping dogs lie. I think we've about gone as far as we can on this topic, lol. On to better things.. Sub Troll 900 or Depth Raider?

The only sure thing is that there would have been more bullets flying around and the odds of someone else getting hit just skyrocketed.. Leave the Call of Duty stuff to the cops.

I asked Capt Bruce but he failed to answer, tell me why if we had a concealed carry law in Ontario that this would have had any impact on if that poor girl got shot or not. Do you think those gangbangers would have cared at all? Not a chance! Who's a non supporter of guns? I've got half a dozen shotguns downstairs... I'm an avid hunter... Does that mean I need to agree with something like concealed carry in Ontario? And that's my point... Why does anyone think that if Ontario had a conceal carry law that wouldn't have happened..

Huh? So you know someone in my family that's been shot or robbed? You know my grandparents? Now you're a mind reader? If you want to convince me, use facts instead of the made up Bull that's flying around inside that empty head of yours.

If that's a Kawartha lake, let them have at it! lol

I'm extremely happy to announce my family has been safe for the past 100 some odd years without God or guns tucked into our pants while we go and grab slushies from the 7-11... Imagine that!

Sure it can happen, so can you being hit by lightning.. Please tell all of us how CONCEALED CARRY would have helped with that poor girl getting caught in crossfire between a bunch of thugged out gang members????? Those guys didn't care about anything, I find it hilarious you think they'd somehow change their minds if there were 1-2 in the crowd with concealed weapons.. Here's a hint, you're safe in Toronto unless you are slinging crack on the corner of Jane/Finch.. Show us all those examples of innocent bystanders being shot in Toronto by stray bullets and I'll eat my hat.

It must really suck living in a world where you are scared to live in your own house. Time to move I think. Thankfully I'm not too worried about being robbed, or stabbed or shot. Lucky me eh?

Scroll up Rambo.

Jane Creba? The girl hit on Yonge street by cross fire while shopping? Tell me how again that wouldn't have happened if people had concealed weapons? If you want to conceal carry so badly, move to a state that allows it like Vermont and go crazy. All parents worry, you're not the only one...

Thankfully most of the people with guns in TO like to shoot each other. So for the everyday citizen like you and me, we have a better chance of being struck by lightning compared to being shot. Defend your family all you want, when was the last time you had to? Talk about making an issue out of nothing.

Appreciate the updates Mike!

Dude, I fished Burt last year with guys blasting away in a duck blind 50 yrds down river!!

So as long as you aren't a felon, no issues? Interesting.

Concealed weapons without a permit, or registration or any kind of background check. Sounds wonderful.

Let's not bring religion into this, this thread is silly enough without it.

I really haven't taken offense to anything.. Myself and many other have seen legitimate snagging of whitefish out on Simcoe.. Ask around to anyone who spends a decent amount of time on the ice chasing these things... If anything, it's EASIER through the ice because you're presentation is completely vertical.. A big weighted treble + some braid and it really doesn't matter how deep you are fishing.. Does it happen by mistaken? Absolutely it does, but are people out there doing it on purpose? You better believe it..

Great, so you aren't ganking whitefish like the other guys out on the lake. But if you think that doesn't happen, you really need to spend more time out on the ice and witness it with your own eyes.. I spent enough days out there last year to see MANY fish come up ass first then be thrown on the ice. I'm a good fisherman because I spend time on the water, it's got nothing to do with steelheading But I appreciate the kudos.

Yeah you're right. No one snags whitefish on Simcoe... Are you one of those guys with the big wooden stick ripping your 'dressed' treble hook 2-3ft of the bottom? If so, I can tell why you might take this thread personally, lol!!!!

I'm all for the right to bear arms, but concealed or even open carry is silly.

I can't eat fish, so using them to catch bigger fish is the next best thing!

Open herring so I can use them as dead bait in the spring for pike!

I fed a few pike to some bald eagles in August
