The hood is a 93, maybe a Frankenstein sled. Even the LT's can have slush trouble, ask Bunk too. Welcome to the Bravo Brotherhood Simon. edit- and Jack

Great score Simon, great little sleds, that's a 93 if I'm not mistaken. You could sell that easy in the GTA for $1400. That is the Transporter model Randy.

Pretty cool story, from open seat in the boat, to pictures of two guys with giant skies, very cool! edit- yeah there's poop on his pants, but it looks like he has a finger up the vent too ( I'm just being stupid), you guys get biggies.

Dry dog food might be better. Throw in a rancid piece of meat and get some fat leeches too.

Again, I don't know if this is legal either, but I would put the tag on the rope (not in the water) that tethers the trap to a tree. G, did you ever get your pike to eat anything other than live fish? Green Sunfish = hellion nightmare on crack

Damn, makes me want to blow off work tomorrow and go do something.

Hahaha, not what I was expecting opening this, I wanted to vent about my Helix SI sucking hard I don't know man, you're a lot stronger than me, congrats on things going well!

Most minnows stay in the creeks all winter. It can be a cool hobby Dave. I had a lot of fun keeping native species in my aquarium (not sure if this is legal or not). I had some less common guys like Tadpole Madtom. The easiest was the Brown Bullhead, it would eat table scraps and didn't mind poor water quality. The Green Sunfish is total bugger and would continually nip at and pester the other fish until they had no scales left. Esox are a pain to feed.

no bush chickens were taken, but as you can see, I really didn't try that hard edit- this post is probably a little less stupid if you're familiar with the Robert Frost poem

no feeding needed for a few days my plug in aerator is likely 15 years old and was about $10, can't get a dozen big minnows for $10

Buy a plug in aerator, keep them cool (garage, basement), there's other regs like label your trap and you can only keep so many and where you can transport them. I use bread in the trap.

GCS of 3 eh, I had to google that. That's another lake I want to see. Disappointing to here there was quite a few other guys cruising around. How far did you run to set up camp? Another crazy trip most guys would never do Bunk and Selfmade, very cool.

Ideally, we all would like to have ten different boats in the garage for different situations. But for some of us, me included, that's not an option.

Yep, there's some real bone head, red neck mentality going on sometimes. "This land is my land, this land ain't your land" I would call the local police Rob and tell them the story, they may put that info in their back pocket. Good nobody hurt.

Jason from Manitouwadge said they can buy logs of dry, white birch, which grows way up north, and that's what they do. I'm happy to say I've scrounged all the wood (not all dry yet) needed for me for 2 years. Mostly poplar and pine. I love cutting wood so I will keep stock piling it.

Right on Joey, looks like a great day. Gotta love this time of year.

A lot of people are very attached to their cottage or the family cottage, me included. Great times and memories. Just curious, what lake near Minden? My parents started going to Gull Lk when I was one year old, been there ever since. Sad to hear about Ralphie. I know he's in good hands.

I've been kinda feeling like I'm playing second fiddle lately. Butt Muncher has taken over driving the boat, he tells me what trail we need to follow, and shows me how to do a roll cast. He's still a little guy though, and enjoys his bedtime stories and poems. "Whose woods are these, I think I know. His house is in the village though. He will not see me stopping here, to borrow his boat, load up and go." "Mister Kewley must think it queer, to stop without a trout spot near. He gives his Busch can a shake, to ask if there is some mistake." "The woods are lovely, dark and deep, But I have promises to keep. To name the lake, I won't say a peep, It's bounty of trout, we will reap." "There are strange things done in the midnight sun, By the men who moil for pickerels" "A full fledged gun cannot endure, the trifling of an amateur. Poor marksmanship its temper spoils, and this is why the gun recoils."

I have had plenty of stuff ripped off from Oakville and cottage country. Two separate incidents, cops shot guys a stones throw from my house. A buddy here in Oakville had to fight for his life against a home intruder. Oakville is considered a wealthy community too. I do not loose sleep out of fear or paranoia, but crap happens, it does not hurt to have a baseball bat beside the bed and take some precautions.

Wow, your emergency kits are worth more than my boat motor trailer.

Amen Big Cliff, I could not have said it better myself. A choice of three snakes, who will do what they want with no repercussion is not a democracy. Total bull pooh.

Man, am I getting the itch to get into the canoe and get out there. Anybody have any water temps up in cottage country

I don't know. I chose a short, aluminum baseball bat to keep beside the bed because the confrontation may take place in tight place, like a hallway.

I think I can speak for everyone involved in this thread and say, the only sensible course of action is to draw a penis on the ballot.

I'd agree, a great day! Makes me want to get out there. Nice sportspal too.
