yup, I think it's too bad that some people don't think we can discuss some fishing topics, it is an important topic and as long as people don't try to make it raciest, it should be fine......

it is only US stations and many of them are on hold till the economy picks up

sink it in cold water to stop it from shrinking.......I thought cold water made my stuff shrink and in both cases I think we are talking about wood.......LOL never mind

I have seen a few that the front where the motor is mounted is much higher then the floor and so the cable is barely long enough for the foot pedal to sit flat on the floor and I have seen people put a block of wood under the foot pedal so it sits strait and stops the cable from bending too much . it solved the problem and was easy to get use to after using it for a short time

nice going , wish I could get one and I do think a couple of guys should repost and say they are sorry for falsely accusing you

Yup, Lloyd is the man he seems to have Quinte dialed in and he has put me on many large Walleye U & Me Guide Service.

welcome aboard I can't offer anymore info then has already be said

nice shot you sure had him hog tied with that lure

as you get closer to the Holland river and in the river the bottom is silt and mud and in places it 3 ft maybe more of mud and silt can be real nasty

sure it would I have a separate unit to display the GPS so I can use the whole screen for the sounder I have not bought the LSS-1 unit yet

wow you just love taking pictures of the wildlife, don't you

5 5 dollar 5 dollar foot long

GIS?= girls In Swimsuits or maybe geographic information systems

do what I did when I broke/sprained my thumb.. if it still hurts 3 weeks later it's broken but at that point it's too late to do anything about it so live with it

nice job

wow that's a trip and a half and very nice fish no matter where you are

We wish you all the best

skeeter....Ass...LOL we all have good days and bad days...LOL

I didn't see a thing when I was out I won't get back out there till walleye opens

looks like great fun

nice going I will find some at some point this year/decade

LOL sorry dude What can I say If I don't catch fish, I don't believe anyone caught fish...LOL I had my OFC hat on too bad you didn't notice, it's always great to meet another OFNer and I wouldn't have picked on you...LOL anyways, as other have said it's just great getting out, fish are a bonus

yeah yeah Wayne..LOL I knew I did it..but I didn't think the water would come in as fast as it did...I wore a lifejacket..LOL I tried real shallow , every canal and river but where I was the shallow water was gin clear, no weeds and rock, I had a couple more spots to try but there was ice in the way I will try another lake on Monday

I have been working hard to get my boat ready for spring I got the steering in and most of the boat back together, but not all of it I tested the motors, took a couple of hours to get the 2.5 hp to keep running. the 90hp started right up I had to put a transducer on the trolling motor and hook the motor back up Then install the hds5 fishfinder the x27c which I am now using as a GPS and for the front the X15..But still had lots more of fixing up and cleaning up to do However Thursday night I decided to take her for a spin Saturday..The Kawarthas was the location I picked..somehow it still seemed wrong to be fishing there this time of year...bad boy bad boy where you gonna fish , where you gonna fish when they come for you................just seems wrong I pulled into the parking lot and there was only one car, no trailers there, thought it would be full. as I was getting the boat ready to launch a guy came from the pier and we talked he claimed to have had on 2 pike but they got off…yeah…..we know all fishermen are liars ..well, except you and me of course and there are no fish in this lake . Any ways I got on the water and went to where I thought the crappie might be as I had never fished this lake for crappie before...It's not like fishing simcoe that's for sure the motor slowed right down and wouldn't get me up on plane...oopppppssssssss..note to self..check the oil level now and then...back to the truck I have skidoo oil and it looks the same and same rating so in it goes and off I go again I went to many more spots that I thought might hold them, what do I know..Nothing I decided because I couldn't find the right type of shoreline or docks that had water under them I headed for some large posts in the water <embed width="600" height="361" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowFullscreen="true" allowNetworking="all" wmode="transparent" src="http://static.photobucket.com/player.swf?file=http://vid25.photobucket.com/albums/c52/Mrbeee1954/PICT0004.flv"> I had to work my way through the ice some large areas of ice and some icebergs, one part of the ride I was very close to shore because the ice was almost covering the whole bay I got to the spot and fished it hard Not a bite.... As I was casting I thought to myself. self it's getting harder to control the boat with the trolling motor..Oh the wind is really picking up...then it hit me will I be able to get back through all that ice.. I took off as soon as I saw the ice I knew it had all blown to the north side of the lake and it would be an easier trip back.... I had a great time fishing the Kawarthas before the second Saturday in May The fishfinders and GPS worked ok the HDS5 does not like water under 4ft deep, but I can live with that I had to run the bilge pump most of the time because I didn't fill in the holes from some screws and bolts I took out of the transom..I meant to put them back in..and will tomorrow..LOL And made it home safely...so that's a good day Now to get back to fixing her up

have a great day
