    Don't own any yet but have worn Frogg Toggs CASCADES jacket and the All Sports suit. It's a different feel material but you get used to it. For the $ I was very impressed. Still using my BPS 100 MPH stuff and don't have any issues now going on close to 10 years old for the bibs

    Frogg togg river jacket and waders. No complaints, and been 4 seasons

    Looks fabulous, Brian.

    Did you take some back ribs, brine them in a bacon brine (or rub), then smoke?  Don't think I ever saw "baby back ribs" for sale?


    Doug

    They were last best before last date. Got a 2 pack for $11 at Zhers. I just did a dry rub,brown sugar / kosher salt. Let get happy for 3 days,flipping over each day. Rinse,let air dry for 4hours after patting dry,then in the smoker for the 3,2,1. Smoked with apple.

    How long does it take to tie one of those jigs?

    I just crank the tunes and get going Simon. Seems I can make one start of a song and finish when it,s done. So about 3-4 min. I have got a system down and works well. If the mrs,s is home and turns the TV on,much slower times. I seem to stop and watch moments. LOL

    That's quite the investment ! Tungsten ain't cheap..

    I'm sure you'll get a nice return on your money once you do your magic.

    Well that is the plan,but I will be selling for a fair price. I bought direct from the factory in China. Would of had sooner if they did not take off the month of February for new year.

    I have already started and with the number 1 this season.

    That colour in particular is doing the damage. I tried your drop shot type rig yesterday, I think it was too ‘busy’ for the fish, for crappie anyway. Walleye like ‘em too. The heavier tungsten sounds interesting, would that increase the overall size a lot?

    The fish,will not notice a size difference Simon. If anything,they will see a bigger juicier grub. LOL

    And so far this year the Argo has sat in my garage.  We do not have enough ice that I feel safe taking it out.

    There is a group that does recovery and they just announced they will not be helping anyone at this point due to unsafe ice conditions. This is a volunteer outfit and not risking lives.

  8. Lots of changes. Just received this. Maybe old news.LOL

    Here are just some of the highlights:  
    • helpful changes to provide anglers flexibility when transporting baitfish and leeches 
    • new slot sizes to promote the conservation of walleye and sauger on Lake of the Woods 
    • updates to zone-wide seasons and limits for northern pike, walleye and smallmouth and largemouth bass in FMZ 10  
    • alignment of FMZs 10 and 11 seasons and limits in the French River for northern pike, largemouth and smallmouth bass and walleye to make the rules easier to follow
    • additional fishing opportunities for brook trout and lake trout in FMZ 8 and FMZ 10
    • modifications to fish sanctuaries in FMZs 10, 11 and 18 
    • removal of single-line exceptions in FMZ 9 (Lake Superior) and FMZ 19 (Lake Erie)  
  9. Plunged is a bit of a over reaction and as the norm,the news relished the whole thing. It was an Argo that broke through. BROKE through the ice. It was floating there and unable to get out.

    Well said Terry and Lew. Crap happens.

    There was a report from an operator saying they were on a solid 6-8 inches of ice,but is warning that once you pass a crack in the area,it,s 2".
