  1. Looking forward to my refund. Wish the 4 day work week article I read wasn’t an April fools joke. I vote for whomever tables that one! We work too goddamn much
  2. Thanks. Much appreciated I’ve amassed A ton of goodies. Grounding bars, fuse blocks, battery kill switches. It’s going to look a lot like that system. Trying to impart some of my own trickery. (like being able to patch all three batteries together in case the starting battery goes dead) Where I might need a hand is wiring up my new tach. This boat had zero anything in it. (navigation lights and a cigarette lighter is all it had) Trying to bring it up to modern spec.
  3. Not the controls. (Assuming you were referring to throttle control. I’m just using the standard OMC controls from the 90s) everything else is getting rewired. Lighting, switches, power supply, trolling system. The works
  4. Awesome. I’m doing 100% rewire on mine. If I run into trouble I might give you a call
  5. Yeah, my Daughter is at Fleming. It was not a feel good dropping her off I’ll say that. Every time I’m in that town there’s always a guy walking through town zig zagging all over. I would have preferred her going anywhere else.
  6. Good for you guys who choose to help. Everyone has a story and nobody wants to live on the streets. something has happened to these people to cause their lives to fall apart and I’ve heard from many that it is very, very difficult to break that chain and get back on top. I used to be the sorry no change guy because I felt it was just going to be used to buy booze or dope, but maybe they ARE hungry. Now I give. What’s giving a few bucks I’m gonna piss away anyway?? Do I really need it?
  7. I head the Hemi is being phased out for a turbo 6 and future electrics
  8. I suspect it may be much smaller than usual. The RV show was half the size from the last time I went 3-4 years ago.
  9. I’m in the midst of a resto-mod with my boat. Thinking of building a rod locker below the floor. Disregard …I’m building a ski locker style instead. tubes will be too cumbersome and restrictive
  10. I had a big pop up about cookie management for this site with a huge list of toggle choices. I ignored it and it didn’t come back up next visit. Did anyone get that?
  11. Yes, that’s an emerging problem… we should start a cougar breeding program.
  12. They were eradicated in southern Ontario with all the farmland and urban development. If I’m not mistaken there was a bounty on black bear and puma around the 1800s. Because they are so elusive they’re seldom seen. We know they’re all around us in southern Ontario. Yeah the MNR always says that it’s an “escaped pet”. Bull. I do t think They’ve never been completely eradicated, and possibly on a comeback.
  13. Third, and disintegrate quickly enough so it does not harm or kill the fish, not 10 years like biodegradable garbage bags
  14. I think OP that your cheapest bet is to buy a spare battery. You can set up trolling motors to run off of small generators, but it’s not a direct hook up. You need a converter (because 12v generator outputs are somwhere around half as much as AC in amps) of course, this is kind of crazy when a gas powered OB or kicker will cost less
  15. There’s a deal… is it just back up power you need to get back to camp/launch or are your thoughts to recharge overnight/off use at your campsite etc. I think these generators are mainly used to charge small usb devices - phones, flashlights etc
  16. I think it would take 1-2 days to charge a big 12v deep cycle battery at 2 amps depending on its level of depletion. AGM batteries may take less though? I think they are supposed to charge faster. Maybe someone else can chime in
  17. I can’t help you on species or techniques, But there is a Gravel launch to both lakes
  18. I think she’s been eating Muskies. What a belly on it.
  19. Merry Christmas and happy New year everyone. Let’s hope we kick Covid to the curb this year to the point it is no different than a flu. Let’s all get on to an OUTSTANDING 2022!!! Let’s this be the year for getting together with friends and family for epic fishing opportunities, epic bbq’s and high quality living. May you all be blessed with that along with good health and prosperity, tight lines and all that good stuff cheers HF
  20. Popa Chubby’s Hey Joe. I’ve seen his name advertised at several bluesfests and never got the chance to see him, but after seeing this vid, I will not miss the opportunity. If you like strong Hendrix songs by the likes of SRV or Kenny Wayne Shepherd, you will probably like this one. Very strong player
  21. Seems to be more common these days. Especially in places you wouldn’t expect like southern Ontario. There was one spotted in the town of Fergus last week and many in the Fergus/Guelph/Eden Mills corridor in the last decade. a deer carcass found in a tree near grand valley. Nothing but a big cat does that. And I don’t know if it’s worth getting too worried about unless it’s frequenting your property.
