  1. I've had my Humminbird 747c out on some pretty cold days.. Only thing I've noticed is the battery draining a bit faster then normal.. It's seen -20 on more then a few occasions.
  2. I've never seen a LCD with a delay of any kind while on the ice. Even the lower end units.
  3. Buy a normal fish finder instead, a lot easier to read
  4. Saltydawg Absolutely. 99% of my whitie and laker catches are on the take (Meaning I'm coaxing the fish up from the bottom).... I've had lakers hit 10ft below the hole coming out of 100ft of water. Same goes with the whities, it's usually at least 20-30ft off bottom when they hammer my spoon. Can't do that without a finder When I think about it, I can't believe I even wasted time ice fishing for whities/lakers without one. Sure you'll have lucky days when the fish are hot, but that's not usually the case.
  5. Fill them up completely with water, lol.
  6. Mermaids, lol!!!
  7. I want it for something other then ice fishing, lol... I might have to keep my eye open for one.
  8. Depends on where the leak is... I've seen headgaskets go and the only sign was oil in the coolant... No coolant or anything making it into the combustion chamber.
  9. Dave, how's it work in gin clear water?
  10. My Canon 60D takes some pretty impressive 1080p video... With an external microphone the audio quality is fantastic.
  11. Owls are so badass! Great shots!
  12. Head gasket.

  14. I spend enough to get a lifetime warranty. Buy it once.

    You aren't smuggling anything. It's completely legal.
  16. Brian, I've got a StrikeMaster downstairs (10in) but I need a set of new blades!
  17. I used 'One shot' instead of AI Servo for the focus, so instead of re-focusing for each shot, it kept the focal length from the original shot... I am soooo pissed at myself for doing this, lol. Anyhow, this is a big crop, some of the other pics after a crop just aren't sharp enough.... I'll have a Canon 100-400 on loan with me next year, so hopefully I'll get some even better shots!

    All I see are clouds
  19. My point was, instead of spouting off about something you don't like, sit back, enjoy the site and see how things work here. As long as they don't listen to your advice on trucks, they'll be ok :)
  20. I don't understand some of the newbs that think they can change the world. Zip it, sit down and enjoy the resource.. If you don't like it, go somewhere else.
  21. That's what cheap labour in Bangalore is for
  22. I can't imagine the business they lose because of that site... Spend the cash, get a proper site done and that's it.. It's not as expensive in this day and age...
  23. Just a big house cat according to the MNR, lol!
