  1. I ran them on a pair of 24s, they just couldn't take it.. Group 31s are now in the boat and they are up to the task.
  2. Easiest way to tie roe.
  3. Matthews is a man child, tough lessons like this suck but they are lessons none the less. The boys will be just fine. Gardiner needs to be paired with a big stay at home D man. He had a great season, I'm not ready to write him off yet.
  4. I've had this with pike on walleye and last year on the Severn a big big muskie on a smallmouth, lol.
  5. I doubt he'll be back to the Sutton anytime soon. Lots of stuff going on in his personal life unfortunately.
  6. Yup, I always forget mine in the boat, or waders or something else, lol!!
  7. Nice!!! I need to make it out that way, heard the fishing has been great since ice out. How was the traffic mid week?
  8. Find a used Shimano Curado or Citica that's a few years old and go with that. Stay away from the Chinese no name garbage. (KastKing, etc) Spool it with some 15-20lb mono and have at it. Crank down the tension knob so your bait barely can pull the line out under freespool and start casting away. You'll have a lot of birds nets but that's all apart of learning. Once you figure it out, you'll find that it's a really fun way to fish, pin point accuracy and really good bait control.
  9. No plans for opener, maybe chase some residents, but I won't be steelheading. Goodluck and if you see pairs of fish on the redds, just let them be
  10. Sorry officer my phone is dead, I can't you show my license. I'll keep mine plastic, lol. I do like the idea of being able to print it off and keep it in a ziplock in the boat. Then you can just leave there all season.
  11. Perfect line for dipsys
  12. The boys don't care about 2013, I think TSN are the only ones, lol. All the pressure is on Boston here.
  13. Rick, yeah for sure. I'll probably wait a week anyhow to let those big girls heat up a bit before getting out there.
  14. You don't need a breaker, a simple inline fuse will work just fine... This really isn't complicated at all. Don't pay a shop to do this.
  15. My oldman loves to catch docks, trees or anything else on shore I gotta start spooling his reel with 25lb mono, lol!
  16. Yup, cop did a great job that's for sure. Nice to see some praise instead of the constant bashing they receive.
  17. Thanks boys, was nice to scratch that itch that's for sure. Now I'm wondering if my pike opener spots will still have ice come May 1st, lol.
  18. I even surprised myself
  19. I hope we're not saying this is terrorism....
  20. I doubt you'll need to make any wiring changes sans joining the two batteries together. If it's not a long run up to the motor, you might be able to get away with what's there already.
  21. Pulled the boat down to the southern shore yesterday hoping to cash in on some early season action. Day started off great, weather was great, lake was calm. Ripped over to Charles Daley got the boards and flat lines out fairly quickly and started on our way over to Jordan. Not a sniff in the first 30mins, so I decided to drop a rigger about 2ft off bottom and within 10 mins we had our first fish. Chunky little brown at about 4lbs. Pulled the other flat line in and dropped rigger #2. About 5mins later brownie #2 came to the boat, almost a twin to the first fish. Kept the speed around 2.0-2.2 and made sure to use those super thin Predator spoons (White seemed to be the ticket today).. Finally got a hit on the inside board running another Predator spoon with 1 colour of leadcore but lost that fish after about 30 seconds. Wind kicked up and that shut down the fish. Decided to head over to Port Weller to see if I could scrounge up a laker or two but mother nature had other ideas. It got really bumpy really quick (NE winds tend to do that).. Decided to call it a day. Warmest temps I found were 42, fish definitely liked the pea green water today. Boat ran great, going to give it a few weeks before heading back down again.
  22. I think it's just a coincidence. But that's just my opinion. Far better places to make a political statement then Yonge/Finch.
  23. 4-6lb Nano casts a mile. It's actually ridiculous.
  24. ......or he's just a lunatic and wanted to be killed by police which seems like the case here.
