  1. Been the same here in Southern Ontario for a long time.
  2. WWOOOOOOOOW!!! What a first period
  3. Should be a great game, and I can't even have a pop while watching. Danged bloodwork!!!!!!!!
  4. Only fitting that you should receive all the help you need. Your reputation for helping others is well known and deserved.
  5. I'm really hoping to make it this time.
  6. I've only experienced 2 of the Disney meal plans and they are great. Allowing you to explore various facilities and cuisine, and completely removing food allowances from your daily planning because you've already covered it.

    Reels....

    It was the Maxx. All I know is that sand is death to most reels. The closest I ever came to having a "high end" reel was my 300A, and I have yet to find anything quite as durable, yet i have been pretty happy with some of the "low end" pieces I have.
  8. Somebody's got too much time on his hands.

    I've a Pfleuger that has withstood 4 years of heavy abuse on the shore, and a low end Quantum Vector that has withstood 8 years of abuse.
  10. You got a long life of PB's ahead of you Joey. Enjoy every day of it. Some fine specimens there.
  11. So sorry to hear. It pulls at the heart every time I read about the loss of our closest companions. I've had the sad duty a few times.
  12. I remember that as a kid back when. 3 boys, one bedroom, one closet, one dresser. We had one set of Sunday bests. couple of sets of decent everyday clothes. Never hear of having 20 pairs of pants and shirts. Nobody had a mountain of hats. We had 1 steamer chest for storing all the summer and winter gear out of season. Kinda limits how much fishing gear you can store away.
  13. I don't usually buy much soft plastic. I'm still trying to use up the son's part packs of tournament plastics. He stopped tourny fishing 3 years back. The only things I need to buy each year are 2-3 packs of tubes.
  14. Had a co-worker like that. 20 different mail order catalogues in his desk. More tackle than he could ever use. Took him 20 minutes to load his gear in the boat. Took 5 casts with a bait; no fish, change lure. He was so busy retying after blowing through the first 6-7 pretied rigs. All the while i'm working what I've got, catching fish, and pissing him off. All the gear in the world will not make you a good angler.
  15. I try to limit myself in what I have gathered up, and I still have too much gear. Doesn't help none that every special day incorporates at least 5-6 new additions to the collection. Truth is there are 2 types of people the fishing industry looks at.1) Fisherman who just get out to fish for simple pleasure, Who wil not generate huge profits 2) the "tackle tart" who must have every latest gadget and gizmo on the market. They spend more time changing tackle on the water than actually fishing.
  16. Nice to see you and the family out having a great time. The young lad looks to have grown a tad.
  17. WTG Cudz. There is a lot of good fishing within the city of Orlando and surrounding burbs.

    I don't watch too much hockey any more. From what I can see, someone forgot to let the Sens come out to play. As for the Pengs Caps. looks like a pretty tight game so far.
  19. I am looking forward to our next get together.
  20. Political parties on all sides are equally useless. Gun registry has nothing to do with McGuinty, and the OLC was created by the Tories under emperor Bill back in the 70's. Bottom line is that any politician who actually tries to make the public service accountable might as well shoot himself. I've watched bureaucrats hamstring and ruin a politician's career in under 2 years. Politicians only come up with ideas. They don't have the brains to implement them. So the bureaucrats do as they please. It's not like you can vote out a pencil pusher.
  21. It is disgusting out there. Soggy and muddy to boot. No safe ice around here at the moment. I aim only for positive goals that are attainable. This year I aim on fishing 10 new bodies of water. What are your aspirations for the coming year.
  22. That looks might good to someone sitting all alone in front of a computer. Back to my turkey sandwich and beer.
  23. You did everything you were supposed to Joey. You just made one wee mistake. You relied on our government to do things right or do the right thing.
