  1. Yeah, the house boaters are in Yellowknife Bay. I actually know Pike Mike quite well as we guided together up on Great Bear for quite a few years.
  2. You could ask this guy who went through last Saturday. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/north/plow-plunges-through-lake-dog-derby-1.3503132 Then there's this fella from early March up on Great Bear Lake. My landlord flew to Deline today to work on recovery of this truck. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/north/truck-plunges-deline-ice-road-1.3477869
  3. I'm looking forward to the time I can stay out @ the cabin in the winter and spring so I can get shots like this devoid of light pollution.
  4. My favorite lens used was more than my body and 2 kit lens'.
  5. I'm a Canon fan myself. A few years ago I picked up one of their entry level camera kits and have been happy with it. Takes great pics and didn't break the bank. I got the T3 kit with 2 lens'. I have since added a few other lens' to my kit. At some point I will upgrade to a better body but am happy for now. Here are a few images taken with the kit lens'.
  6. Yep, a Newfie fella drove his brand new F350 last year or the year before on a lake with no ice road in early spring and sunk it. Insurance covered the loss.
  7. You may want to find anew insurance agent. Insurance covers loss through the ice up here, no reason it shouldn't down there.
  8. There are a couple of good Rainshadow blanks that will work great for this app. IST1384F is a 2pce 11 1/2' blank that is a 4-10# and it can also double as a nice small creek or boat CP rod. I have one I use a lot in Alaska. IST1202F is a 6-10# 10' rod that will chuck hardware great.
  9. Do you have the number for 911? I want to call to complain!!!!
  10. Do you have a vehicle? If so head South to Islamorada (about 1.5 hrs) and book a charter out of Bud and Mary's Marina. Plenty of great options and the fishing is awesome out of Islamorada.
  11. My charger has been secured directly to an aluminum bulkhead in my boat using stainless screws for many years with no issues.
  12. You're welcome and I'm glad you got it sorted out at a reasonable cost.
  13. Give this a try. Don't know which version of vehicle you have but did a quick look for a 3.5 regular ignition and found a white one in BC for $120. http://www.car-part.com/
  14. Well they're playing a pretty decent game tonight against the Wings.
  15. ​Our landfill site has a bin for fluorescent bulbs. Maybe yours does too.
  16. Got my lumber loaded on the trailer today. I will haul it to the site next weekend. Been lazing around too much since last summer. The workout nearly killed me!!!
  17. Yeah, he's quite the sniper. The kids got a lot of talent. Scored the winner in the shootout tonight too.
  18. It depends on what you had for a steering system to begin with. Most boats tend to use the same types of helms (Tapered 3/4" with key). If your old system used this then the wheel should fit.
  19. Not even close!!!! We feed our huskies nosy neighbours!!!!
  20. Yep, a lot of selfish ignorant people in this world!!! I saw it also as I was watching Quantico on an Ontario channel. Was happy when the all clear came out about 45 minutes later.
