  1. You ever get the transducer cable that broke spliced back together and working?
  2. Good news So the boat was found by a fisherman on the backside of an Island on Buckhorn. He recognized the boat after seeing it on my Facebook post and called Scotsman point. The owner and his buddy were still vacationing at the resort were called and they went to the island (after calling the OPP) and towed their boat home. It has major lower end damage and the prop is totaled. All fishing gear was still in the boat and the only thing missing was flashlights. Interestingly enough, the small island that the boat was found on had a 14' rental stolen from it this morning! OPP figure the people that stole it were still on the island and ripped off another boat to get home. Thanks everyone for looking and keeping this on your radar. _________________ Tom McCutcheon
  3. Hello everyone; I am posting this here in the hopes that someone will see this and inform the OPP. I don't hold out much hope, but I need to try. This past weekend, the Kawartha Chapter of Muskies Canada was holding our annual fundraiser get together on the Tri Lakes of Pigeon, Chemong and Buckhorn. Sometime through the night early morning Saturday, a boat was stolen off the docks at Scotsmen Point Resort. This boat did not belong to one of the MCI participants but it was owned by an American and his fishing buddy from Ohio who had just arrived to spend 17 days fishing for Muskies. The keys were not in the ignition, but rods, reels etc. were on board. Ohio registration numbers on the side. The boat is a Starweld http://www.starcraftstarweld.com/ (made by StarCraft) 18 Pro with a 125 Yamaha four stroke on the back. It was only four months old. The owner was heartbroken so our group invited them both to dinner as our guests and we took up a collection of one Muskie bait from each MCI member to help them get back on their feet. A rough estimate of $600.00 in baits was placed on a table and a brand new Handlebarz Muskie bump board as well. If you see this boat please contact the OPP.

  5. Flying your drone safely and legally From Transport Canada For more details on flying your drone safely and legally refer to the Recreational and non-recreational drone operations - Frequently Asked Questions. This page provides specific rules and guidelines on how to fly a recreational drone (also called a model aircraft) safely and legally. It also helps you understand laws that apply to all recreational and non-recreational drone operations. On this page Rules for recreational drones Legal requirements New regulations Rules for recreational dronesIf you fly your drone for fun and it weighs more than 250 g and up to 35 kg, you do not need special permission from Transport Canada to fly. The list below is an overview of the new rules for recreational drone users. Consult the Interim Order Respecting the Use of Model Aircraft for the full list of provisions. You are exempt from these rules if you operate your recreational drone at a Model Aeronautics Association of Canada (MAAC) sanctioned field or event. Following the basic safety rules below will help keep people, aircraft and property safe. If you fly where you are not allowed or choose not to follow the rules below, you could face fines of up to $3,000. Fly your drone: below 90 m above the ground at least 30 m away from vehicles, vessels, and the public (if your drone weighs more than 250 g up to 1 kg) at least 75 m away from vehicles, vessels, and the public (if your drone weighs more than 1 kg up to 35 kg) at least 5.5 km away from aerodromes (any airport, seaplane base, or areas where aircraft take-off and land) at least 1.8 km away from heliports or aerodromes used by helicopters only outside of controlled or restricted airspace at least 9 km away from a natural hazard or disaster area away from areas where operation could interfere with police or first responders during the day and not in clouds within your sight at all times within 500 m of yourself or closer only if clearly marked with your name, address, and telephone number Flying for fun? New rules for recreational drone users (PDF, 5 MB) Tips for recreational drone users (drones under 250 g) Fly your drone during daylight and in good weather. Keep your drone where you can see it with your own eyes – not through an on-board camera, monitor or smartphone. Make sure your drone is safe for flight before take-off. Ask yourself, for example: Are the batteries fully charged? Is it too cold to fly? Respect the privacy of others. Avoid flying over private property or taking photos or videos without permission. Non-recreational drone: If you fly a non-recreational drone for any type of work or research, or if it weighs more than 35 kg, you must get a Special Flight Operations Certificate (SFOC). The SFOC tells you how and where you are allowed to use your UAV. The only exception to this requirement is for operations conducted under the Transport Canada exemptions. For more information on the SFOC and exemptions, read Getting permission to fly your drone. Legal requirementsWhen flying a UAV (non-recreational drone) in Canada, you must: follow the rules in the Canadian Aviation Regulations:section 602.41 – Unmanned air vehicles respect the Criminal Code, your provincial Trespass Act, as well as all applicable municipal, provincial, and territorial laws that apply When flying a model aircraft (recreational drone) in Canada you must: follow the rules of the Interim Order Respecting the Use of Model Aircraft Transport Canada inspectors investigate reports of unsafe and illegal drone use. We may involve local police if other laws (e.g., the Criminal Code and privacy laws) have been broken. You could face serious consequences – including up to $25,000 in fines and/or jail time – if you: put aircraft at risk fly where you are not allowed endanger anyone’s safety For example: If you fly your drone recreationally where you are not allowed or choose not to follow any of the rules outlined in the Interim Order Respecting the Use of Model Aircraft you could face fines of up to $3,000. If you fly a UAV without an SFOC and should have one, we may fine up to $5,000 for a person and $25,000 for a corporation. If you do not follow the requirements of your SFOC, we may fine up to $3,000 for a person and $15,000 for a corporation. New regulationsTransport Canada is proposing new regulations to address the safety requirements, growing popularity and economic importance of drones. Proposed changes include: new flight rules aircraft marking and registration requirements knowledge testing minimum age limits pilot permits for certain operations Learn more about the Proposed rules for drones in Canada.

  12. A lot of bait shops sell these they are a dace minnow most people call them mud minnows
  13. Read this from another site "If anyone is travelling to our beautiful province this spring, please be aware that once again, Quebec is making it known that it is the province that fun forgot. Our provincial wildlife administration has put into place new measures for the use of baitfish for fishing. From April 1 until December 20( when ``winter`` fishing season opens) NO LIVE OR DEAD BAITFISH are permitted for fishing. Nothing. Nada. Zero Zilch. This includes store bought herring, smelts, mackerel, anything. From December 20, until March 31 annually, dead baitfish are permitted for the `` winter `` fishing period. Also, in shared waterways with other provinces where live bait was legal to use in the winter, it is now prohibited to use any live baitfish to fish in winter or summer. Here`s the Coles notes, April 1-December 20- NO BAITFISH ALLOWED FOR FISHING AT ALL. December 20-March 31- ONLY DEAD BAITFISH ALLOWED. For anyone that doesn`t speak French, the MFFP (governing body in Quebec for wildlife regs) website is a nightmare. All of the publications and press releases are solely published in French.... hopefully this info will save any visitors from a fine, as our wardens are pretty ticket happy."

Display the number on both sides of your boat's bow. The number must appear in block characters which are: at least 7.5 centimetres (3 inches) high in a colour that contrasts with the colour of the bow There is a $250 fine if you are found operating a vessel without a licence.
