  1. The biggest thing has to be consistency. Call it one way or the other but keep it consistent. Letting one game get out of hand then shutting things down the next makes for crap hockey.
  2. Smallest was about 10lbs. If I would have caught a few in the 3-5lb they would have made their way to the livewell.
  3. I think the fans are blaming that loss lastnight on the lack of effort in the 1st and second, not the refs. Unless you're watching a different game then we all are?
  4. One of the things I miss about not living in St.Catharines anymore is the early season big lake fishing. Born and raised in St.Catharines, the spring salmon derby was my fav time of year. Although living in Barrie gets me access to a lot more water up here, I still usually get the boat wet a few times down there each spring with some browns, lakers and some early kings. Alarm clock went off at 2:30, on the road by 3 at the ramp by 5. 3rd one in the lot, not to shabby. Got everything rigged and ready to go and we were off. Headed west towards Jordan, was thinking of getting out the mast and planner boards but just much work int he dark, so we just stuck with dipsys and the riggers. Well as soon as I could safely turn off the nav lights, all hell breaks loose. Riggers going off, dipsys going off, trying to drive the boat, it was chaos. At one point we had a triple header and one rod sat in the rigger for a good 10mins while we tried to land both our fish. I haven't had a day like this on Lake O in a loooooong time. The girlfriend got all the rigger fish and I got all the dipsy fish, I've reeled in enough salmon she hasn't so she was on rod duty. We got fish on spoons, SD/flies and MC Rockets. I didn't even both to put a body bait down or use the planner boards today. Wolfpacks of 3/4 fish were marked and then the rods would pop. What an awesome day. All kings, biggest maybe 15lb? All really nice clean fish. After a while we stopped taking pics and just tossed the fish back. Bite died at around 11am and that was it. Fun fun day, the gf says her arms are sore, lol.
  5. Need that 3rd period effort all game! Although it's not a Bruins/Leafs series unless it goes 7 I guess, lol! Matthews had that one pass buried..... So close!
  6. We fished out of Port D towards Jordan today, boated probably 20, lost more then I'd like to count. Crazy day out there.
  7. If I knew that I'd also predict the lottery.
  8. Tampa and Pitts gone, I wonder what the Vegas odds were on that!
  9. Hardware is a great spring alternative as well. Like porkpie, I'm more of a fan of the fall fish instead of dropbacks. However, the weather in the spring is usually a lot nicer
  10. Yeah, nothing but shoulder here........... [/img]

    Apparently once it starts it lasts about a week or so. It's riot just to go down there and watch the madness, lol.
  12. Debrusk should have gotten two, no doubt about it. Also the hit on Marleau was questionable as well. But you can't go crosschecking guys in the face. Stupid stupid play by Naz.
  13. I'll gladly take a 1-1 series coming out of Boston. I wonder how Krugs head is doing this morning, Muzzin absolutely destroyed him lastnight.
  14. I use the standard Minn Kota plug. I can never get that stupid thing in straight the first time, lol. I should probably just mark the plug and receptacle and stop driving myself insane. I should probably upgrade to the Marinco 12VCPS3.
  15. San Jose got robbed lastnight, that goalie interference call was absolute Bull.
  16. Isles/Pens has been a great game so far. What is up with Tampa? .......and here we go! 1-1!
  17. I completely missed that from last nights game, lol.
  18. It's too bad the TSN feed missed this from lastnight.
  19. SK breeds giant lakers!
  20. Nice crappies! Still waiting for everything to dethaw up here
