  1. No harm no foul for asking at all. Good luck with what ever you do. I kind of regret selling my Streamside rod and RwaII reel but I know the new owner will use it more than me rather then it collect dust. Be selective as you don't sound to be on a rush. I'm sure a hell or a deal will land in your lap from someone here should you be able to wait a bit... Remember, Christmas is almost here so some might sell off top gear at a great price due to gifts. Don't rush and find what you like the looks and feel off at your local retailers.
  2. So true, it's the "he said / she said" battle just getting worse... And then the provoking that can ensue on top of it...
  3. The RawII was a great reel for the price. the start up on the one I had was fluid, not a glitch. check the used section too as I'm sure there is a few very good reels out there in your $ range or others thinking of selling what they have may PM you with what they have. Good luck either way!
  4. oh yeah, good ask as I just cut all my TV back
  5. In this day and age it's to be expected. Don't fart is a Tim's drive through as you WILL be the next youtube sensation...
  6. I actually had the looks grow on me after holding it in my hand (raw11) as I didn't care what the reel looked like as long as it did what I needed/wanted it to do. I joked it was my pumpkin.. If you care about function vs looks then go function. I don't like my Stradic FJ's looks but it's a damn nice reel... food for thought is all...
  7. 100% Just wait till the parades don't have the Vet's, Knights of Columbus and the Shiners involved... Rather short parade I'd guess eh... Too bad values aren't always handed down each generation...
  8. If I ever get another float reel I'll be checking the Streamside line.. Streamside Vortex Float Reel as I had a Streamside rod and for the price it was great! https://fishingworld.ca/products/8866-emery-vortex-float-reel-sv400-
  9. I've had the Aventa and RawII (2)and both were good for the price. I got the RawII for $189 new so what's the diff with the sirata other than a drag system? Your hand and rod are the drag so why pay more IMO when you can get NEW for the same. After a quick search, it's just adding drag to the spool of the lower line Aventa.
  10. Cool because you're doing your job as it should be done either way so for them to tell you as an honest person that's cool on their part. Those situations you see like that on youtube are just tools wanting 15min of fame to say "see I proved a point and I won" a majority of the time... Thanks for the reply to that. *thumbs-up*
  11. I'm very glad you chimed in on this to help clear up Simon's question as I had a situation like his 2 years ago ice fishing. I know the CO by first name basis too and have his cell # on my phone if needed but he was not his typical self after seeing my gopro. If the CO (in this case for Simon) was just doing his regular duties and not being rude, demanding or abrasive then there should be no real concern for the camera right? I get it some don't want to be "posted" but if said CO was to say something to the effect "hey Simon just edit me out if you post that anywhere online ok?" then it's a nonissue right? Or is that too much common sense and or courtesy?
  12. Nice outing and fish for sure!
  13. 2013... lol
  14. Oggie, check the Bell site, there is a "check availability" section for DSL. There is also a new LTE turbo hub with 20GB of data too that they recently just started offering (I don't do any mobility things to tall you a cost). porkpie, keep the 3 cause more service for your $$ and its a good call for a land line when either kids or seniors are part of the household mix. in and around this time next year (with luck even sooner) all companies are going to "pick and pay tv" packages. $25 for the base and then add either 15, 20 or 30 channels you want for a set rate for the 'extras' so someone who doesn't watch much tv will save but they have to change the plan or the old plan will stick. I advise everybody to review your service (with any provider) each year to ensure you are getting the best value for your dollar and it fits your needs. You have any sort of idea how many people say "oh I need unlimited internet usage for sure!" every day? then I ask them to log into their account and see what they really use over a 6 month average. Some of those 'high users' are under 100GB when they actually start looking into it... When I'm talking to people I tell them "great because I'm spending your money today so we can do what you want". Want's vs needs...
  15. next stop? convince her to pick me and move in here and leave the current "situation" then take her and the kids fishing!

  16. That to me means you had a 2-year promo (rare) and you are finally at the regular rate for the service. Unl INT as a stand alone service is a $30 upgrade, so you all know. So to me your bill should read as follows for that rate: home phone (light or access line), internet with unl usage added and "Good TV" programming and maybe a second HD TV receiver. Close with my guess? If wrong you have a faster than standard high speed service OR Select TV pkg. *edit to add* I don't o billing, just new in sales so I may be off a few bucks for a legacy account with old pkg names.
  17. time for a new cell maybe as this one holds a charge for a whole 8 hours or less after 2 years...

  18. you and me both (but I've been there for years so welcome to the club bud!)
  19. Oh the things I want to say to that but won't... HA! VERY nice fish there B!
  20. Check with Bell too because some places have Fiber to the Node (box on the street then copper to the home) and some newer places have Fiber to the home. If FTTH then speeds of 940MB with Unl usage are possible but for that speed and usage it's $149.95. If sounds a bit like I may know a about the stuff just ask who pay's me
  21. Why? Anyone would have just thought you wished Ralphie was a cow is all... Or you didn't want to get busted for taking it eh...
  22. 407 Cliff. When I was in Whitby working at Dell I would take the 407 to Warden on my way in (but get on the 407 much closer to Markham then where it starts) and reverse that home. Most of the time I got on the 407 just before 9th line and would take HWY 7 when not on the 407.
  23. If you miss seeing Cliff I'll be around from 5PM on then should you want to meet for a 'beverage'
  24. I was at a Service Ontario centre about 10 days ago and she said Dec 15th and on if doing it in person.
