  1. hey now... just north end of whitby...
  2. does anyone have the link to the vidoe of this? my folks cottage (the one in my avatar) is just on the other side of Coby. so I would like to see it, thanks.
  3. oh and the 3" yellow jigging grub is ok too...
  4. "give it to me straight Dr I can take it!!!" ok, all and all it's a nice FISH
  5. yes and no, there are still some breeders in there. like I said, there was last time I was there 2 years ago. Yes, lots of pike too...
  6. blaque, was that person talking dollarama or another chain? the dollarama in Whitby (by the beer store and the mega super centre) had a bunch of the storm items (all still in boxes; from a shipment last month I was told) and the mako itmes only.
  7. How close are you to Baptiste Lake? That area is good, well it was 2 years ago...
  8. Tks for the heads up, it's off to the local store for me! Then another, and another...
  9. Yes they are in every one I have been in. I picked one up about 2 months ago to replace an old rod at the cottage (as a spare) but it has found it's way into my rotation of common use rod's...
  10. True, but most of the cars I have had and or have now that have come out of Japan have been amazing.
  11. Same here, no more FORD's for me - EVER! My 1996 Ranger (that I got brand new) had the starter motor fall out when I went in for my 3rd oil change! After that everything started going inc. the clutch. 1 week after I had the clutch work done it went up for sale. Other then when I got married and my kids were born seeing that truck drive away was one of the happiest moment in my life. Mind you, my wife's 2003 Grand Caravan isn't such a good one either...

    No problem, also check the pdf in the other thread as it has info on what is in the waters close to you. Have fun and a Eight-day Conservation Fishing Licence should only run you $24.55 as Non-Resident of Canada.

  17. ahh, the new x-files movie has got to ya!
  18. That's called, naw... this is a family board....
  19. I too have 2 times (well more but the memory is foggy) 1st time I was in my early teens on a golf course heading up to the green with a friend and pick up the golf balls and take off as the storm just blew in. We were at the farthest point away from the club house too. Well, that's when lightning hit the flag on the green less then 20 feet from me. He said I looked like a cartoon with my legs going so fast as I sprinted back to the clubhouse with a nasty ringing in my ears. I had dropped of my clubs at the car and was in the clubhouse almost done my snack and drink before he got to his dads car. He was the fastest person in my school too... The 2nd time I was in my early 20's looking out the sliding glass doors in the basement (we had a walkout basement) at the storm going on. We backed on to a creek so the house was one of the higher spots around... Needless to say lightning hit the house in a few spots and one was 6" on the other side of the door where I stood. I was launched clear across the room on my back. I had no clue how I had done this either as I just missed hitting the pool table with my head. I was up at the front doors trying to calm my dog before the deafening sound of the thunder clapped so I guess I was moving fairly fast. Almost everything that was plugged in and on in the house was damaged as well. Later we found 3 spots that the house was hit, where I was, beside the pool and the chimney as it needed to have 10 or so bricks replaced. So, if it's raining, lightning is in the air and you see me running faster then Flash Gordon forgive me if I don't stop and say hello.
  20. here you go, right from boaterexam.com. "Q. Who needs the Pleasure Craft Operator Card and when? A. All operators of powered watercraft used for recreational purposes within Canada will eventually require the card.The following three groups of boaters require the card IMMEDIATELY: All operators of any powered watercraft under 4m in length (13.1ft) All operators of PWC's (i.e.: sea-doos and jet skis) All operators of any powered watercraft born after April 1, 1983 As of September 15, 2009 all boaters will be required to have the Pleasure Craft Operator Card in order to operate a powered watercraft. There is no grandfather clause or age exemption – this law applies to all boaters. Powered watercraft includes watercraft fitted with any size motor – even a trolling motor. "
