Anybody have an online source for outboard motor parts? NF
chris.brock replied to chris.brock's topic in General Discussion
The local dealer is good, I'm just trying to save a little money but I may end up at the dealer in Kinmount. I'm still running with the burnt rectifier, I just have to take the battery out and charge it myself every couple days. Good points as usual Old Iron, thanks. Thanks Dave \/ \/ \/ I don't want to put on a part that doesn't fit Klinker, thanks Gallie -
Awesome for you guys to get video of the whole deal, from the hook set, to the release of that giant. Did Aaron fly in that big muskie landing net? It looks better than a cradle.

I don't like hearing stuff like this. If you weren't in Yellowknife, I'd say fishing, campfire and drinks at my cottage. Keep your chin up.

Nice spot, I'd be down there every free evening I had.

Need advice....French River in October
chris.brock replied to bigcreekdad's topic in General Discussion
Yeah, what lodge/ section are you going to? Like HH said, you likely have to go deep, 30 plus FOW, fishing slow. -

Everybody is a comedian on here No word. I'm going back up north tomorrow to see what other stuff of mine has been stolen while I was away. -

Not really. It was cheap and is light but you get what you pay for. Leaky, weak transom, tippy with that high seat and rides terribly in a chop. -
I always thought Fidel's is pretty cool.

Thanks Shawn (Fishindevil), Shane and Entrophy for keeping an eye out. I found my bill of sale from BPS but there's no VIN # on it. The seat is the same but mounted a little different now. The board extends the whole way along the bench. Don't write me a ticket for drinkin' in the boat FishnNautographs -

Canoe with outrigger or aluminium cartopper
chris.brock replied to huzzsaba's topic in General Discussion
You can go out on Lake Ontario in a small boat when the conditions are right and the water is warm, staying close to the harbour. -
Good to have you back running it, lots of glitches last season I'm in.

Canoe with outrigger or aluminium cartopper
chris.brock replied to huzzsaba's topic in General Discussion
There's a reason you don't see too many canoes with outriggers around. That's because the outrigger isn't necessary. A regular flat back canoe or small car topper tinny is likely the way to go. -

I wasn't the guy who figured out how to legally carry a handgun in the bush. I give credit to Chad /\ /\ /\. He told me how to do it, just wanted to give him the credit. Direct your PMs to Chad edit- seriously, Chad knew this and told me -

I don't know if it was a civil suit or the crown Old Iron. A civil suit makes more sense but I will ask him. I thought about it. I don't keep a gun and ammo easily accessible. The risks outweighed the benefits. Oh yeah, there is a way to legally carry a restricted weapon (handgun) in the bush here in Ontario. There's some hoops to jump through though. I'm not going to post the "how to" here. -

Bri, I own the land. I think I need these signs if I am going to start blasting buckshot at people. Old Iron. I don't doubt my buddy, it's a true story, he did mention the intruder was bleeding out of his ears after the fight, getting charged boggles my mind too Mr Bliz you should post how you caught the fuel thief, awesome story, genious -

The lot were my boat was stolen has a snowmobile/ ATV trail right through. It also sucks that because of this thief I'm going to close the trail and post no trespassing signs. .Another trail lost because of some dirt ball. -

My buddy hear in Oakville woke up in the middle of the night to a noise in his basement. He went down and there was an intruder, a fight ensued, my buddy (the homeowner) won the fight. My buddy was charged and had to get a lawyer etc to eventually get cleared. Boggles my mind. So yeah, this definitely isn't Texas. -

Nope, not in my books, I'll butt heads every time on this topic. My lake is cool, everybody gets along, there's no complaints, we don't need cops suntanning and writing tickets to the good guys when there's dirt bags stealing our crap from behind our backs, pisses me right off. Come to a lake on a complaint only basis. In their "free" time, catch some real crooks. My wife and I pay huge tax dollars, don't damn me, damn them. It's not the individual cops fault, it's the protocol, Pisses me right off, -

Sounds more like a turf war than theft. Talk to Wayne, see what he thinks. -
Sonar Question- Down Imaging and Side Scanning
chris.brock replied to chris.brock's topic in General Discussion
Update- I bought a Helix 5 SI. I can admit I'm not as techy as Bill or other guys. I can split the screen with whatever functions I want. I can see way more with the regular sonar versus DI. DI sucks so far, it's only been a week though. SI doesn't work like it's claimed. It is somewhat useful if your following a weedline or sharp break but definitely not revolutionary technology. I'm on the regular sonar 90% of the time. SI and DI are only good in shallow water too, forget about deep laker spots. The built in GPS is cool. I thought I didn't need this since I have a handheld. Way easier to hit "mark" on the graph when I see something cool rather than carry the Garmin. Thumbs down from me for DI and SI. Spend the time with a line in the water rather than watching a screen. -
Looks great but I'll stick to canoeing the French River.

This is going to sound stupid but so be it. I had a dream Saturday night my Jon boat was getting stolen. I have these dreams once in a while. Sunday, I drove to where my boat was stored, and sure enough, it was gone. My cottage friends and me are sick and tired of loosing crap to theft. I'm not sure what I'm going to do next. Trail camera, try and bait the guy, sit in the bush watching the bait, bring the 12 gauge? This is the 3rd rip off from me in 6 months, I'm pissed. The cop showed up quick after I reported the theft. I liked the guy. I'm going to say this anyways- the cops are out cruising the lakes, harassing the good people asking if the boat driver has a beer in the boat and if he has a pealess whistle, meanwhile I'm out a grand to replace what I've lost. GET THE REAL DIRT BAGS! Pisses me right off! 10' Tracker Jon, grey plastic seat mounted, crude holes cut in the bench to fix the seat, 2x6 across the gunnels for my downrigger, leaks like a sieve (it's a Tracker) Moore Falls, near Minden and Norland
