  1. Man, you are spreading it thick, I hope you have a big shovel. You're excuses are good though, keep it up I need the laugh.
  2. Wayne, you can pick me up on the way down bud
  3. Oh, so without the vaseline BJ would have stuck to GSP like glue? You realize these guy sweat right? Stop making excuses for BJ's horrible ground defense and lack of preparation.
  4. You're kidding right? Good job on searching the internet for keywords and making this your first post... BTW, did you miss the part where the ref made them wipe it off? And if anything it's the corner mans fault, how they would ever punish GSP is beyond me.
  5. Yup, V10 TDI Touareg
  6. It's all in good fun Yeah, it's a 2500HD with a Duramax and the Allison 6spd. 1/4 mile wouldn't even be close, these trucks aren't made for drag racing, lol It falls on it's face when the digits get up there, but out of the hole with 650ftlbs of torque it's a monster. I think anyone shopping a Tundra would be silly not to look at a truck like this also. Doesn't seem to much of a difference, even in the price range.
  7. Big engine? check Will pull out tree stumps? check Gets 20mpg? check Will make that poor Tundra run away with it's tail between it's legs? check
  8. tackletour.com most likely has a review on it. I've heard nothing but good things about the Curado.
  9. I don't think the Vaseline helped with this...
  10. I'm sorry Lew My condolences to you and your family.
  11. Those fish would be dead in 30mins, you were just seeing muscle reflexes
  12. You wouldn't have even made a cast, you didn't miss out on much. So much ice flow I made maybe 5 decent drifts with my float setup on Saturday and that was it. Chatted with a few guys down there, all were bottom bouncing. Flyfishing would have been an even worse decision
  13. :eeek: I don't want either guy to get hurt, but I'd like to see GSP win by KO or submission. BJ has been talking alot of smack, I hope he can back it up.
  14. I got a wicked deal and pulled the trigger on a Shimano Saros F. I like the fact that it uses the 750 body with the 1000 sized spool. Should go great with my UL. Thanks guys!
  15. There are no losses until you pull the money out. I hate to say it, but it's true. Is being mortgage free that big of a deal? What's an extra few years? I'd sit on your investment for a good 12-18months and then see what happens. You aren't going to make anything by pulling that $$$ out and dropping it into a savings account.. If you pull out now, you are going to miss the upswing that the market is inevitably going to take.
  16. No pic of the monster laker?
  17. I think you are talking the Queenston ramp, I myself just figured out where it was (Thanks Jack! lol) You are going to have a real tough time down there with a flyrod, it's big river. I would bring a spinning setup as backup.
  18. Hey guys, I'm looking at upgrading my arsenal by adding in an ultralite spinning reel. This will be used on my Fenwick UL 6' rod for chasing brookies and any other unsuspecting victims that I may encounter This is going to be a dedicated small stream reel.. I'll be using either 2-4lb mono, small #0 and #1 spinners. I currently have a lower end quantum that I picked up in a rush and the drag is anything but smooth. Some shakers in the Notty gave that reel a work out and I was lucky that I even landed them. I've been looking at a Stradic/Sustain series, the Quantum Energy E10PTi-B series and I guess anything else someone can suggest. I'll be using this reel 2-3 times a week, so it needs to stand up to the constant usage. Bushwacking isn't easy on reels as you know, so something sturdy is definitely needed. I really like the 750 Sahara series for the size, but wish the higher end Shimano's came in those sizes (Stella not included, way out of my price range)
  19. Mike, I think we'll need to make a few trips this year to GB in search of some Esox. I'll steal the oldmans boat How does Massassauga sound?
  20. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you guys are to quick Who needs a date?
  21. Pete Maina.
  22. Crap, I thought this post was for tickets!!!
  23. lol!!!! Marc, how many do your clients catch? :EDIT: Addicted2fishn, I had the same prob last year. It was my goal to actually get a muskie bigger then 12inches For opener I hit the French River, cast after cast without even a sniff. Spent 3 days chasing them, nothing but pike and a few monster smallmouth bass. I hit Balsam when the weather got warmer to try and get this skunk off my back. Seeing that the Kawartha's have a decent quantity of fish, I thought for sure I'd get into one. Well I picked the warmest, bluebird day you could ever imagine. Guess what? No fish, no sniffs, no nothing... Then one day I picked up some new blinge from Jose and was itching to try it out (Shimano Calais).. Hitting a few nice bass out on Gloucester Pool right before sunset.. The sun goes down and my dad and I continue to chuck away. I lob my Zara Spook Jr over a weed edge into about 15ft of water. The water absolutely explodes and I know exactly what I have on.. It wasn't a monster, maybe 36inches or so, but man did that ever get the blood pumping. I was as giddy as a schoolgirl when we finally got her into the net. A quick pic (horrible by the way, so fuzzy you can barely make out the fish) and back she went. I guess the point to my little story is that you'll get one when you least expect it, just keep at it!!!
  24. My dad has always used Larry's Taxidermy out in Dunsford. I haven't seen any mounts that compare, but it's all personal preference I guess
  25. You just need to look for the deals. I got a pair of Riverteks for $199 at BPS.
