First time I bellied out in my F150 ... was lucky my buddy had a winch on his F250 ...and he pulled me right out (after a couple of embarassing pics with me hip deep in mud) ... went straight home and bought a winch specifically designed to fit into that hole in your front bumper where the licence plate goes.... have only used it twice (to rescue other folks) ... but wouldnt go into the bush without it

I still wear my OFC hat whenever I fish ... especially in Quebec

It pops up lower middle of my screen and blocks out the ability toread what's underneath it... it disappears eventually so I wouldn't have mentioned it if thi thread hadn't been started...I have a feeling it's some kind of. Notification

Would be happy to if I know how on my bleckberry

Me too... a blacked out banner that blocks the view of my screen when accessing from my phone browser.

My Whisker 1300 has been my favourite spinning reel for almost 25 years ! Having said that ... there's nothing quite like fighting a big 'bow' with a float real ... I even use it trolling ... on the 'clicker'

Yep ... pretty sure they were $0.99 at Towers back in the '70's (when I was a kid) ...we used to call them the poor man's daredevil

I'll take ten green and ten yelllow !!!! Name your price !

Missus bought me a drone for christmas...which I took back (before the 30 day return policy kicked in ... mostly because I hadn't decided exactly WHICH drone I need for my purposes ... SCOUTING ... not sure what the problem is with scouting is though... as a prospector who travels the 'untravelled' places .. it'd be nice to send a drone over yonder hill or lake .. before having to cut my way through the crap to get there ... chances are nobody would ever know since i'm normally miles from the next human being or cell tower or plane

Yes Ive used em and they are fine ... and for $20 you cant go wrong

Pretty sure I paid a bundle and had to wait a few weeks (personalized so its my own fault) ... but hey who wants ugly old peeling plates on a new truck DIG4GLD in case you were wondering

Me three ... as much as I love my Maui Jims and do feel they were worth the extra $$ ... my most important thing for use in fishing is the polarized part ... you'll know they are good if you turn your head sideways and look at the clouds ... if the clouds don't change hue the glasses are no good ... and the other most important thing is clean and unscratched lenses ... I go through so many I normally buy the $20 pairs for fishing (and always have an extra pair on hand for anyone who comes along with me and realizes their fancy-schmancy glasses aren't worth a crap (no matter how much they paid) because they aren't polarized or are too scratched up. I also agree with the safety ... been saved more than a few times when a boating partner got a little carried away on their hook-set (its not just when the pike decides for one last head-shake - just saying)

OK .... so I tried every trick in the book to snarp the UTM's ... no luck ... Anyhow absolutely awesome video (and fish) ...thanks for sharing .... won't sleep now till my next outing

Just back on after a long absence from the board and this is the first thing i saw, I'm so sorry Cliff. My deepest condolences to you and your family.

Hah ... must be something in the water ... I just checked back in after YEARS ! ... nice to see familiar faces !

Just two word ... welcome aboard .. ok 2 more ... NICE LID !

Try lake Muskoka ... Boyds Bay just a few miles from Bracebridge on 118 ... Pickereye

Sorry gang .. been away a while and felt the need to stir things up a bit ... just sayin

Wayne I been away for a bit .. please give her a great big (albeit belated) hug from me ! And many more !

OK .. now Im feeling inadequate with my HB 5 series ... but hey ... I catch lotsa fish ... just have trouble finding the sunken treasure

Had manual walkers back in the day (when dinosaurs wee still young)... loved em ... but wouldnt trade in my Cannons (cant remember the model but theyre electric and work like a charm .. other than busting a pin when I got caught up (*redfaced* - dont ask) while backing outta my mooring ... I havent had any issues !

Karma ... its a many way street

Spreader ................................................. sorry couldnt resist ... better gets me another coffee

Yup I remember that event ... not sure how I missed out on the 'gang' shot (probably lost somewhere behind Terry's big laker .. anyhow if memory serves me, I iced my pb whitey that day ... I'll do my best to be there ... great cause and great fun ! Gotta go look for the auction post now .. me thinks I gots some biddin to do

I've loved Mercs for decades ... and only two years ago got my first Yammi 150 ... first 4 stroke I've owned ... and have to look in the water to see if its running ... absolutely LOVE it If only I could lift the darns things I'd switch all my 9.9's to Yammi 4 strokes as well. ... ask me again in 5 years .. but so far I cant say enough good things.
