  1. Thanks for the tip. Seems like Black and orange is a popular colour combo...I've also read a few posts here talking about "Jake" and "Believer" lures. Never heard of these. Are/how are they used this time of year or not?-skdds

     

    If you have never heard of a Jake or a Believer, please do some research before going. Take Dax's advice and get a net suited for muskies, hook cutters and some good pliers.

     

    Don't go in blind and dont specifically target fish you are not prepared for.

     

    I am not trying to sound like an :asshat:, just be prepared please.

  2. Wish I could help you Mike, but if Brian & Stacey no longer have them you could try BPS . They don't carry much of a selection of musky stuff but they do carry Sledges but I don't know about the strawberry.

     

    There's a small tackle shop near P'Boro that may carry them and I'll be heading down that way in the next week or so and if they have it I'll grab one and send it to you.

     

    That would be amazing Lew. If you find one, shoot me a PM and we will work out the details. I can even pick it up. The wife and I are due for a day trip. We are only about 2 hours from you.

  3. Your absolutely right Mike, the strawberry Sledge along with a black/yellow Double D are 2 of my most consistant producers every year, and not just in the K-Lakes either.

    Lew, or anyone else for that matter, does anyone know where you can buy the strawberry Sledge? I heard they discontinued the color and someone has removed mine from my box and never returned it :angry:

     

    I'll go almost anywhere in Ontario if you can tell me where. I know the boys at JB's don't have it, last time I checked Stacy didn't have it at ProTackle, none of the smaller guys seem to have it either.

     

    Thanks,

     

    Mike

  4. i expected carter. he's been in rumours for weeks because of the bryzgalov move...

     

    richards was strange! no worries for me though. next to matt cooke i think richards is one of the cheapest players in the nhl. never seen him lay a big bodycheck that wasn't blindside or from behind and never gets suspended because he wears a C.

     

    Wow

  5. I would have to say Thomas could have played one of the best single season and playoffs in NHL history.

     

    I am not a fan of Boston at all, but Thomas was and this is an understatement, Incredible!!! I don't know if we will see another goalie perform like that in the next generation or 2. Unless he does it again next year.

     

    Well done Boston.

     

    I still think Vancity is 10x more talented then Boston could ever be, but if you cant score when it matters, talent means nothing.

  6. I think what we are seeing is a generation of kids who live without consequence, and it's a byproduct of parents who've been neutered by child abuse laws.

     

    Don't misunderstand me. I don't condone child abuse in any way, but there are times when all the talking and explaining in the world doesn't sink in nearly as fast as a swift kick.

     

    My dad always gave me the option of listening and behaving FIRST, and it was only when I waived my rights as a child that he exercised his as a father. I don't resent him one bit, actually I am better off for it. I'm not some softy, Justin Beiber looking, me me me first baby....there's a lot of those today.

     

    This is by far the best and most realistic post I have ever read on this board. It couldnt be closer to the truth and I wish the generations that are included in the above would get there :asshat: kicked back to reality.

     

    Thank you Sinclair. Finally!

  7. I have never fished it but I take 10 home through Westport into Perth when I to go or come back from Hamilton a few times a month.

     

    There are always a ton of boats (12+ at the launch off 10) every time I drive by. They are always bass boats, pretty fancy usually, the lake is huge, yet I have no clue whats in it. Good luck though and let us know, its only 45 mins from my door so I would be curious.

  8. Early summer up in P.A.B. can be amazing fishing for everything. Remember everything happens later up there. Eyes are usually hanging in about 11-15ft all over up there. Mid summer behind Bonnie can be amazing, but can come up dry too. That's the best part of P.A.B. Its one of the hardest places to fish. I wouldn't choose any other place. Its becoming over fished though now.

  9. Yup, doing the Spartan at Camp Fortune July 3rd. Next year the Super Spartan will be here. 8 miles+ of hell. The thing I like better about this then the warrior is that you have no idea of the obstacles. Its going to be sick.

     

    Best of luck to all who have entered. And yes, the group helps. There are 11 of us out here doing it. $45/person

  10. Another vote for Champix if you need help. I stopped April 17, 2010. After 15 years of smoking, i have never felt better. Yes, you will put on weight, just like a few have before. I also know about 9 people that have quit with Alan Carr's book. And they all say the same thing, the book is amazing and works.

     

    Here is the reality of it. For anyone who has smoked in the past will know, smoking is awesome. There are not many things that are better then it. I loved smoking. All parts of it. I still think I love it. The truth is its disgusting in more ways then we can ever imagine. Not to mention the detriment to your health.

     

    Accept that it's amazing, know that you will miss it every day, and know, in the end, the benefits of quitting will out weight the benefits (so we all think) of smoking. Quitting smoking sucked. But it was soooo worth it. I will never smoke again. Its just not worth it. And yes, I still love smoking.
