i understand that getting to a show that is not all that great is a dissappointment....but spare a thought for us in the middle of nowhere where BPS, Lebarons...etc...are ta least 2000kms away....lol. Mind you...the fishing up here makes up for the lack of good tackle stores.

YEP!!!

Even the old spring fishing show was on a down slide for quite a few years. I stopped going when the sausage and sunglass vendors out numbered the fishing tackle vendors.

I have been using Raven the last few seasons and really like it expecially when using the higher test main lines that I'm using out west. My goto line is now Raven 12# and it handles very well.

He right back in it, good race!

Until his next pit stop when brain fart #2 happened.

And then brain fart #3 when he wrecks half the field!!!

Surprise, surprise...............Little E just took the lead!!!!!

DOH!!!! That didn't last long.

i cant, doing diaper duty today ! lol would like to be shed hunting right now.

Y'all don't need to hunt them things!!! Just go down to Home Depot and pick a nice 8'x8' shed up. They may even have one of them sweet barn shaped ones.

Heck I think the'll even deliver!!!

Get off the sofa and go fish.

I would but the last time I went ice fishing on the Daytona 500 Sunday Dale Earnhart died.

Besides it's cold, snowing and blowing a gale outside!!!

You're going to love it!!! I got a Pilot last year and it is a sweet vehicle.

My last 4 vehicles have been Hondas and each one has been great!!!!!

Have fun with it.

The VTM4 activates the center locking differential in 1st, 2nd and reverse as was stated. It locks all 4 wheels for superior traction in really crappy conditions. I have used mine to claw my way through a foot of snow on the lake.

UPDATE: once the snow gets up to the bottom of the doors she gets stuck. At least with the conservative all season tires.

I used Power Pro for the first time last year (on a friends outfit) bottom bouncing for Kenai River Rainbows and Dollies and have to say it worked incredibly well.

So well in fact that I will be running it on my bottom bouncing rod this year. I am currently waiting for my order to arrive so I can spool up.

It is so much more sensitive than mono in this situation I caught many more fish. I have been using Spiderwire on my walleye jigging rods for several years and it has really increased my hooking %. I'm hooking fish with it that I would never even know were there with mono. I always run a flouro or mono leader as the braids get beat up quickly in the rocks, especially when trolling.

Type Blue Fin Tuna into the vid search bar at the top

THANKS!!!

Makes me want to oil up the deep sea gear and hop on a boat that reeks of diesel exhaust!!!

Hep me!!! I'm blind and can't find it.

Harry was only expressing a personal feeling about something, so I see no need to try and publicly embarass him for it. He's entitled to an opinion just like anyone else around here.

I was just kiddin' around. Don't get your knickers in a knot!!!!1 GEEEEEEESH

Yeah man, too sensitive.

Maybe you should think of giving up fishing and maybe try crochet, origami or maybe even interior decorating.

This sucks!!!!

I was expecting scantily clad cuban girls.

No worries!

 

Interesting what can be found with a quick Google search huh?

What's this Google you talk of??

We have a lot more public water in Canada than you do in the UK. This spreads the demand on the resource over a wider area.

The area of Great Britan is 209,331 km² while the area of Canada is 9,093,507 km² about 44 times the size.

While the population of Great Britan is about 59,000,000 and Canada is 33,200,000.

So you have about 1/44th the land mass and nearly twice as many people as Canada.

So you see the strain on our fisheries is nothing like it is on yours.

Here's an example:

The lake I live on has an area of 28,568 km2 or about 1/7th the size of Great Britian!!!

So that is why you will see people keeping and eating our tasty finned friends.

No worries Hubbard...lol...it just comes out as a huge block of tiny text...maybe its just time for me to get reading glasses..

FYI

If you are using IE7 down in the bottom right corner you will see a magnifying glass, 100% and adown arrow.

If you click on the 100% it will increase the size to 125% the first time, 150% the second time and back to 100% the third time.

Or you can click the down arrow and choose a magnification up to 400%.

I use it when a site has tiny text. I'm not blind just optically challenged!!!!

I think the lack of formatting is what is making it hard to read. I had a little difficulty keeping my place.

Ebay changed there Feedback system theres no more Negative,if there was any Negatives they all got erased when the new system came in ,Ebay likes to look after the scum to ,they get there cut and could give a poop about the buyer it seems

You are incorrect sir.

They did change their system but you can still give negative feedback. What they did is they kept the original system (positive, neutral, negative) but the added a 1-5 star system to rate shipping costs, shipping speed, seller communication etc. This gives more info about the seller not less.

I run mine 50 to 1 instead of the 40 to 1 spec'd... but only because I already have 50 to 1 for my chainsaw, power broom and whippersnippers. NGK plug eh... never looked at mine. Something for tomorrow...

I only run full synthetic oils now. My choice is Opti2 but Ams Oil Sabre is just as good.

These oils are run at 100:1 in all 2 stroke engines regardless of the manufacturers specs. The manufacturers specs are for conventional oils and not synthetics. With the 100:1 mix your motor starts better, runs cleaner, doesn't foul plugs and has more power. My Auger, Chainsaw and Outboard all run the same mix.

Sure beats having several different cans of mixed gas.

With a new auger run a cople of tanks with conventional oil mixed to manufacturers specs to break in the motor before switching to synthetic oil.

Back to the original question. Most of the augers on the market are fine. The 2 HP versions are much lighter if you are on foot. I personally like the augers with chipper blades as opposed to cutting blades as they last longer and stay sharp longer.

Cough, cough....................... I feel another Thursday afternoon cold coming on.

I have the 5 1/2" Cabelas Advanced Anglers Camera. It's an excellent black and white camera that uses a Sony CCD with IR lighting. It works extremely well and is very affordable. You can also record by hooking a camcorder up to the output on the back of the monitor. An added bonus is it's on sale now for $97.49.

With an average rating of 4.1 from 142 owners I guess I'm not the only satisfied customer.

PS. Don't buy the panning camera. It is not a Sony and is no where near as clear as the fixed versions.

Cabelas Camera

Excellent!!!!!!!

My 10th anniversary of the day I quit was last month!!

As long as it was stored in a cool dry place out of the sun you'll be ok.

Change the water pump impeller before you take it out on the water. It will have taken a set will be badlt deteriorated and will disintegrate as soon as it is used. You don't want the little bits of rubber to clog any of the water passages.

Change the plugs and do a carb rebuild, also replace any fuel lines and filter.
