Terry

well it looks like you are having a good year thanks for sharing

so I was given some bucks to buy a reel the only thing I could think of was something for icefishing and maybe some UL fishing I hate the really small reels they sell for light line icefishing, I needed something just a bit bigger someone told me the Shimano Stradic 1000F Spinning Reel would be the perfect and when I checked into it it was just what I was looking for, I mean it was exactly what I had in mind......dang, they are not cheap, but was within the amount given to me....I was reading about them on a USA website but the price was much cheaper..so I started looking around and man they are cheaper down there...... so I decide it just doesn't make sense to buy up here.....I really like to buy in Canada but..money is money as I am looking for where I will buy it an Ebay auction pops up...oh yeah good price...Oh wait they have a Shimano Stradic CI4 1000F Spinning Reel buy now cheaper then the Shimano Stradic 1000F Spinning Reel in Canada..Ok what is a Shimano Stradic CI4 1000F Spinning Reel...I like it even more, I found an auction for one put in a bid and wouldn't you know it , I win the very first one I bid on today I get it delivered to my door $210.00 all in...210.00 bucks all in to my door.............how the heck can you go wrong with that any ways I didn't know much about it but it does seem sweet and it is so light it floats I mean you set it down and you find it 6" off the floor just floating there waiting to be used....ok not that light but , you hold it in your hand and with your eyes closed you don't know if there is a piece of paper in your hand or the reel...yeah light so I am happy with the reel and POed I can't buy it in Canada unless I want to pay about 80 more bucks.... <a href="http://s25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/?action=view&current=aaajpg.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/aaajpg.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>

we did have more then our fair share of problems with the place but nothing that was unforgivable.....it was only mouse turds... I was POed that they charged us for guaranteed dock spots, didn't tell any of the employees about it and didn't charge anyone one except OFNers and we came back at the end of fishing for the day and there was no docking spots and it was "oh well nothing we can do " but in the end it's the only place I know of that can house all the people that show up for the BOQ M&G....... so I would go back and give them another try......but that's just me....we will see what the masses do this year for the M&G

good report and great fish

welcome aboard, sounds like you are going to fit in

trailers are cheap the monthly fees are much much more.......

take them a good distance from camp and dump them in the water...circle of life.......

the bum slide LOL... I had forgot

real great stuff but just so you know we have an art/photo section on OFC this is where photos and art go art here

yeah but the BOQ trips have never been the same once most of us started staying at many different places we really need to find a place big enough and close enough on the water to suit everyone

GSP will win and there will be a canceled kosCHECK

ebay 400 bucks, I got mine for I find mine the finest reel I have ever used but not worth the $1000 CND they were worth when I got mine on ebay I just got a great deal on a 10' New Shimano Stradic CI4 1000 1000F Spinning Reel on ebay, but that a spinning reel, so not important at this time

over a week ago I saw a big herd of birds gathering on the hydro lines and I see lots of dead leaves I have to predict an early fall/winter but then I am the one who said rap music would never catch on

everyone should own at least one shimano calais dc

while watching the movie can one of the massage girls work on me..........

wow

I was hoping to hear you caught many more fish..I have been wanting to go there for some time but the company makes the trip, the fish are just part of it

but if you really want to know google says this Long hair may look sexy and luxurious on someone who is in their 20s or 30s, but after the age of 40 not many women look good with long hair. It is a generally accepted fact that as women get older, their hair should be lighter and shorter. When we think of a woman of 65 with charcoal black hair down to her waist, the image strikes us as being unnatural and unusual. However, it is much easier to imagine an older woman with soft blonde hair cut above her shoulders. One reason why older women should have shorter hair is because of the fact that the aging process not only affects the skin, but also the hair. As we age, our hair becomes less shiny, more coarse, and more prone to breakage. Older hair is not as pliable as younger hair, and is therefore more fragile. Because of this fact, long hair on an older woman seldom looks healthy, and more often than not makes the woman look bedraggled and ragged. Shorter hair also makes people look younger than they really are because long hair gives the illusion of elongating facial features. If an older woman with a sagging chin and drooping eyelids were to wear her hair long, she risks the chance of looking like a bloodhound. Shorter hair is also preferred by older women because it gives the illusion of fullness. As we age, our hair loses volume, and long hair will look flat and lifeless on an older woman. Cutting the hair short provides many more styling opportunities for the older woman, since the hair can be set in rollers or a curling iron, it can be permed, and it can be teased. All of these things will make hair look thicker and fuller, and will therefore make the woman look younger. Of course, as with every rule there are exceptions. I have seen a few older women with long hair who were able to pull off the look. But they all had one thing in common: their hair was unnaturally thick and still maintained its youthful luster and shine. Had these women been cursed with thin hair that was dull in appearance, they would have looked much older than they really were. Even though long flowing hair is the dream of nearly every woman, women must be realistic and accept their limitations. Getting older is an undeniable fact of life. Women who try too hard to defy Father Time just end up looking desperate and ridiculous. In an ideal world, women of 65 would have the same hair they had when they were teenagers, but in real life things just don't work out that way.

I never noticed, never looked at older ladies but it is interesting that you notice them...LOL

Lloyd ... U & Me Charters puts me on big walleye every year at BOQ...he is da man

hey Paul have a great day happy birthday

I don't buy that argument the bands will take what they want when they want.........and they have the right I will not argue that.....but not to sell..... not in Nip. but another lake the gov. bought some of the commercial licenses off some natives to help save the fish the next week the owners brother use the boat to fish .......I am afraid the more we allow them to sell the more they will sell..the less for us and we keep stocking fish so they can be sell back to us........ I see nothing good coming from that

no salmon, say it isn't so....LOL looks like that boat made a tidal wave but a good day on the water

there are females on this site and many, many of us fish with or wives or should I say get out fished by or wife but all of them agree this is the best site for discussion about fishing.............LOL

LOL I stand corrected
