MY BOAT SANK! NEED HELP (update #3, May 9)
Dondorfish replied to young_one's topic in General Discussion
After hearing about 4 foot waves I have to wonder if the boat was tied to tight to the dock and the waves overflowed the back of the boat Don -
Great report Jen - worth the time spent waiting to hear from you guys! Nice walleyes and pike. Guess we all know what you'll be havin' for supper tomorrow night! Don

I had a great time! But Roger - think there might be something wrong with your camera - really makes my hair look grey! Was nice to get to meet Joefish and his son, sonny, loonietoon, John and his wife, and to see Jen again - she has a million dollar smile! And Roger - well what can I say - never dull when he's around! Thanks for organizing such a great night for all of us. And I agree - chicken wings were great - havta say - they beat the firehall! Took a few pictures - but I played with the camera and screwed up my settings, so they aren't that good: Joefish and son John and his wife ( sorry John - next time say cheese! ) And the 3 stooges ( had the rest of us in tears ) Loonietoon, Sonny, And the man himself - Roger And last but not least - Jen Thanks again all - I had a great time and can't wait for the next one!!!

In 1986, Mkele Mbembe was on holiday in Kenya after graduating from Northwestern University. On a hike through the bush, he came across a young bull elephant standing with one leg raised in the air. The elephant seemed distressed, so Mbembe approached it very carefully. He got down on one knee and inspected the elephant's foot and found a large piece of wood deeply embedded in it. As carefully and as gently as he could, Mbembe worked the wood out with his hunting knife, after which the elephant gingerly put down its foot. The elephant turned to face the man, and with a rather curious look on its face, stared at him for several tense moments. Mbembe stood frozen, thinking of nothing else but being trampled. Eventually the elephant trumpeted loudly, turned, and walked away. Mbembe never forgot that elephant or the events of that day. Twenty years later, Mbembe was walking through the Chicago Zoo with his teenaged son. As they approached the elephant enclosure, one of the creatures turned and walked over to near where Mbembe and his son Tapu were standing. The large bull elephant stared at Mbembe, lifted its front foot off t he ground, then put it down. The elephant did that several times then trumpeted loudly, all the while staring at the man. Remembering the encounter in 1986, Mbembe couldn't help wondering if this was the same elephant. Mbembe summoned up his courage, climbed over the railing and made his way into the enclosure. He walked right up to the elephant and stared back in wonder. The elephant trumpeted again, wrapped its trunk around one of Mbembe's legs and slammed him against the railing, killing him instantly. Probably wasn't the same elephant.

Just ordered the 14XG - hope its as good as I've heard. Anyone have one? Does it cover the Trilakes? It says all of the Trent-Severn waterway. Don -
This could get very interesting! Keep us posted on the progress Don
-
Maybe if the courts would hand out reasonable fines, and the money stayed with the MNR - then the MNR would probably be self supporting and not in the shape its in! Take all their stuff - then hang em' Don

Nice area - fishing has been slow the last couple of years - but I just think the fish are getting smarter! I fish from the south end up to the causeway. Maybe see you out there sometime Don
-
Go for the lakefront - more fun to have a swill on the water - lol Which end of Chemong? I am on the south end every weekend - starting this weekend. Don
-
but Walleye routinely come up to the dam at Bridgenorth in the evenings to feed, just not as in many numbers as earlier in the season. Are you refering to the causeway in Bridgenorth or the dam in Buckhorn. I fish Chemong nearly every weekend all summer and have never seen a dam in Bridgenorth. Don

Wow that looks nasty! Did you check with your insurance company - it might be covered - then its their problem to make it right. Don
