  1. I think some guys here are thinking you have a hole(s) in your boots or are you trying to water proof them? Nik wax is another excellent product, I do my work boots twice a year, keeps the leather supple and waterproof. I get mine at Sojourn in Barrie, MEC might also carry it.

    A pair of steel toe rubber boots suffered a small crack near the steel toe. Sad to see, was the best pair of boots I've owned. I would have never guessed that they would crack before me being an idiot and stepping near a nail putting it through the side on accident. I also bought a new pair of Terra work boots that I would like to seal and make them more resistant to water. I hate working all day outside with wet feet and try to avoid wearing rubber boots when possible. Another option I thought about buying is a neoprene boot liner, but a no leak solution sounds better.

  2. Rap's, yup. It pretty much is.

     

    You might want to explore the US of A for steelhead. Lots of tribs are well stocked and managed, with good runs of fish. Put in the time, Lake Ontario and Erie, you will make your own history.

    I plan on exploring the rouge and humber. Just trying to find a place with some g4 guide waders. Wilson's doesnt have my size and BPS doesnt carry them

  3. I use the same cure formula with salmon roe....it's works great...so much so that I no longer keep trout for roe.

    I was reading the box and borax is a deoderizer... Why would it be used in a cure? Or is angies cure a scam? lol... The eggs I bought at the bait shop didn't seem to be cured at all. Seems like they were dipped in water until their shell was thickened and then dried a bit and frozen.

  4. I checked out the video jug way and it was so easy. I follow their steps and completed them easily. Until I had to take out those darn bones with pliers or tweezers. they would not come out so easily and if they did they would tear the meat ruining the appearance. The meat was not as colorful as the video jug example. Wednesday I caught a large male and filleted it. Today I caught a nice small male about 8-10 lbs. Still a silverish colour. Filleted it and the colour in meat was equal to the larger 15 lb male. Hmmm...

  5. could have been a deer who knows but i wasn't gonna stick around and find out... If i had my cam on me the flash on it would have cleared things up. Scary when you're there all by yourself. You never know what's lurking in the bush. Last year we had a black bear around kitchener and cambridge area. Guess it travelled down from the north. It was sighted by a few people. I think it took them a few days to track it down. See ya never know what's out there. You may think there are no bears down south but you can't say that for sure because there could be just for that day you're out. And who know's it might cross your path. I learned my lesson no more late night solo outings. Hope you guy's don't either. At least be with someone and be prep'ed.

  6. Within 1 week I have had 2 encounters with animals. Last week it was 2 raccoons and last night at Bronte around 9:00PM I heard something moving the leaves around. I didn't see anything so I continued to fish. A few minutes later I look up and I see this huge gold animal. It must've been around 150 lbs. A minute later I look up again and it has moved more to the left looking straight at me. I'm there by myself the girlfriend is in the truck waiting. My knife is in the truck. I'm thinking that is some cold water the easiest way to kill it is drown it if it comes at me. So I decided to leave quickly. Got snagged on the way out snapped the line and booked it lol. I couldn't really make out what it was. Might have been someone's stray dog, A big gold one. From now on no late night solo fishing for me...
