  1. Well show her by purchasing at full price!!! That'll teach her, right? :rofl2:
  2. If they are going to do that I would like to see survivor filmed on the barrens!!! IN WINTER!!!! :rofl2:
  3. Been done already. If you haven't seen the movie yet find it. This dude is awesome and his craftsmanship stellar!!!
  4. Pretty good deal on an Eagle portable on the BPS site, but hurry they wont last long. Perfect for a little tinny, pontoon or for back lake and fly in trips. Eagle Fish Easy 245 DS Portable Fish Finder
  5. If you really want to do it right go with disk brakes instead of drums. There's a reason most factory installed boat trailer brakes are disk and not drum. The only caveat is that they are hydrolic which means installing either a hydrolic surge actuator (reasonable) or an electric over hydrolic actuator (spendy) if you want electric brakes. Something like This Kit would be the most reliable and most cost effective solution.
  6. The Ladies of Jarvis A reality show about TO's nightlife!!!!
  7. It's a lot of fun. I used to use it fishing my pond in Grand Valley too. Caught rainbows up to about 6#'s on it. :thumbsup_anim:
  8. Yes it would. My favorite Upper Credit rod is my little 7'6" 2wt.
  9. Wet= sinking ie nymphs, streamers etc Dry= floating ie. elk hair cadis, hoppers, adult mayfly imitations. You can use wet flies on a floating line but dry flies don't work so well on a sinking line.
  10. Fixed it for ya buddy.
  11. It true!!! Why do you think I live in the NWT and spend my vacations in places like Alaska?
  12. It has gills and is covered with slime so yeah it's a fish!!!!! :tease:
  13. Some of the combos out there are quite good for the $$$. Looks at the BPS and Cabelas combos. If you are just going after small stream trout I would go with a light 4 or 5 wt setup, with a floating weight forward line (easier ot cast than adouble taper) and 20# backing. There are those that will tell you to get a 6 or 7wt but I would not if you are chasing smaller fish with smaller flies and tippets. I used to fish the Grand for browns and my 4wt or 5wt were my rods of choice depending on what flies I was likely to throw on the day. 5wt was used when I was chucking large weighted flies like buggers and muddlers while the 4wt was brought out for tossing dries and nymphs. A 9' rod is perfect for length unless you are fishing large rivers where keeping line off the water and mending at distance is required. Heavier weight rods such as 7wt-9wt are best for fishing salmon and steelhead in bigger flows (I use my 7wt mostly for lakers and Kenai River silvers) and my 9wt is reserved for pike. The heavier rods are made for chucking bigger heavier and more wind resistent flies. 6wt-7wt are perfect for chucking flies for bass it that's what you're after. There is no need to spend a ton of $$$$ on your first outfit, in fact a less expensive moderate actioned rod is much more forgiving of little mistakes when learning to cast. Here's a great Deal on a Cabelas starter combo.
  14. I have always pulled off the road when using my cell, it just made sense to me. As for the cell while out camping or fishing, mine stays home or turned off especially up here where I live. The things don't work too far out side town and even if they did I don't want to be bothered while out having fun. The stove would be great for recharging my cameras whil back country camping.
  15. You will need to know what axle is on your trailer in order to get the correct size brakes. i.e. 2000#, 2200#, 3500#. Lots of choices for 3500# axles (which I would think yours is but best to check and make sure. Check out eTrailer.com for some info and if needed just give them a call and they should be able to help you out.
  16. Has it been rustproofed already? If it has and you can find out which company did it it is best to go to them and have it checked out and touched up. If it hasn't because it is used the only way to go is with oil spraying. All of the other types require a clean new vehicle in order for the under coating to adhere properly.
  17. Until the rooskis start drilling for oil and mining up there and claiming it as theirs. The 40% is where you live Bill the other 60% is North of 60*.
