I got mine at Home Hardware
You can have them order it in if they don't have any in stock.
Cost was about $45.

Interesting........i almost figured that had to be the case.
Thanks for clarifying.
He also had a monster of a pistol with him (well his chaperone did) that fired a bullet in the air to fend off the brown bears that were lurking.
There's nothing spookier than running into a 1000# brownie face to face at close quarters.
It's pretty exhilarating when the fear wears off though.
Don't ask me how I know this.

Yep , another good one.
However.........anyone see the one where he was intentionally lining salmon. He actually described how he was trying to hook the fish by lining them. Found that peculiar.
He only ended up hooking one fish and had it stolen by a brown bear after beaching it.
Lining is an accepted practice when fishing for sockeye salmon in Alaska (probably other places too) as they are plankton eaters and do not readily take bait,lure or fly like the other 4 species of pacific salmon do. Personally I don't like it but it is accepted.

The Panasonic was my 2nd choice. It was a to me retirement gift and every time I looked at the pioneer it was Oooooooo.
The Pioneer Kuro isthe standard all other plasmas are rated by. Unfortunately Pioneer no longer makes Plasmas and have sold all the Kuro technology to Panasonic. I expect Panasonic to impliment more Kuro tech into their models over the next couple of years. The Kuro tech is expensive and is a big reason for Pioneer bowing out of the market. Some of the Kuro tech is being employed in Panasonics VT a Z series plasmas now and is expected in the G series in 2011.

I have had both XM and Sirius and Sirius is way better for me.
XM starts to lose signal in Northern Alberta and Sirius has much better signal up in the far North. I also like NASCAR and it was unavailable on XM.
As for listening to music, when you got like 3 stations and they all SUCK!!!
Any sat radio is good.

I have a 50" Pioneer Plasma. If sports are thing get the plasma for refresh rate.
Look for moving vehicles and if the screen blurs the TV is lower quality. Also edges of suits look fuzzy.
The to cheap to believe prices are us usually 60hrz alright for game shows and sitcoms.
Seen some LG plasmas that look good.
I have a Panasonic P50G20 plasma and absolutely love it.
When I was checking TV's out in the store I looked at all of the different brands, types and models and found even the best 240hz LED LCD's still had too much motion blur for my liking. I also don't like the black levels on LCD units.

I have one of the Sub Zero's from CT and have had no issues with it.

Great vid, I voted, you're in 24th now. Was it just the two of you on that trip or 3 people?
Joey
Just the two of us and a tripod.

All right ladies and gents, I have uploaded my Ice Road Fishers video to the WFN video contest and could use your votes.
I didn't want to step on STR8's toes last month so kept quiet.
Well it's a new month so as they say "all is fair in love and fishing!!!"
I ended up 4th for December and know with your help I will make the top 3 in January.
I'm currently in second.
Thanks for your consideration.

If it were me, I would say screw it and fish without it until the card arrives.
In 30 years of living and fishing in Ontario I was checked less than a dozen times for my license and 1/2 of them were by the Peel Marine Unit while fishing salmon and trout off port credit.

As others have said don't skimp on quality.
I got a trailer this year and needed an inexpensive genny as I couldn't afford a 2000 watt Honda or Yamaha this year so I bought a cheapo 1300 watt job for a super cheap price. It sounds like you're standing beside a 747 taking off when it's running!!!!
But for the $140 brand new it cost me it was fine for now.My buddy in Alaska is going to hook me up with a new 2000 watt Yamaha next year which will be really nice. He can get me one for about $800 with his contractor discount.
The dealer here in Yellowknife wants $2000 for the same one.
My 1300 watt unit will trip the breaker when running my onboard charger and my espresso machine.
The current draw on the espresso machine is rated at 900 watts so my charger will draw somewhere north of 400 watts when it is doing it's thing. -
I'm looking forward to this one as well.
The daughters look smokin'!!!!

No problem bud, I already have one!!!!

Nothing, Nada, Zip, Bupkiss.....................
So I got myself some goodies.
In October I bought a Panasonic P50G20 50" plasma and walnut stand. I added a Panasonic BLU Ray player and have a pair of Pinacle 10" 125 watt powered subs and a Yamaha HTR6295 Networked/3D 7.2 channel surround sound receiver on order.
They were sold out of the center channel speaker I was after and the rears will have to wait for the bank account to refill some.
The subs were 75% off and the receiver was 50% off.

Hey Lasz,
I had a white river pontoon from Bass Pro Shops. It served me well, was quite rugged and handled a ton of weight once I added all kinds of extra toys to it.. lol It was rigged up with with an electric motor, rod holders, a seat, fish finder w/ GPS the whole deal. The only thing I would have changed was getting the model that had split pontoons or dual chambers or whatever they're called for a little extra safety.
Good Luck!
Ryan
Like this one of mine Ryan?
It holds my fat
and my pups too!!!! 
What ever toon you end up with make sure it has a good seat, good quality multi piece oars 7' long with brass oar locks and has an anchor system available for it.
Other nice to haves are multi chambered pontoons and motor mount.

Now that you've caught some bait let's see some big lakers.
Won't be huntin' biguns until the spring.
The days are too short to get a good day in until March.

I got out yesterday for a little 80km sled ride and I made it out for a few hours again today for some fishin'.
Temps were pretty decent at -16 with light winds.
I ended up trying a couple of new spots today (there were interlopers fishing last weeks spot)
All was not lost though as there is plenty of room for all.
I set up about 200-300 yards away on another point and managed one 3 to 4 pound pike there. Then the action slowed so I moved to another point further up the lake and managed a couple of 3 to 3 1/2 pound whities there. I lost a couple and missed a few as well. All in all not a bad day.
Tomorrow will be gear cleaning and thawing day so all is ready for Friday's outing.
I'll probably still get out fer a little sleddin' though.

I have a couple of favorites:
1/ Fillet Mignon
2/ Ribeye
Either cooked rare.
