  1. The wildlife do love to showboat for the cameras! I had one Tom take 42 pictures of himself strutting in front of one of my cams a couple weeks back LOL
  2. Nosbonsing is 1/10th the fishery as Nippissing. Rent a place on Nip, I dare you to get skunked!
  3. Turkey hunting, it’s addictive!!! My boys and I chase them every year. No joy opening morning this year but we’ll find em!! A couple pics of my oldest sons last 2 birds, I like getting them on birds as much as I like being the trigger man these days! Try to adjust to the mouth call if you can. Super convenient and has killed me 90 percent of my birds. You shoulda hammered that Jake. You did well for a first hunt!
  4. Percy is a pretty good small mouth fishery. I’m not sure how the pics hold up these days. Belwood would not be somewhere that I’d go for walleye. There may be the odd one here and there but the place is overrun with people and not at all consistent for any kind of fishing. I’ve always liked the buckhorns, and Crowe was surprisingly not bad last time I fished it. Rice lake while busy is usually a producer for pics. Hard to go wrong there so long as you don’t mind contending with weeds. Anywhere you go on opener will be a gong show for the most part so just keep that in mind!
  5. My generator has had seafoam treated shell premium gas in it for 3 years. I just did it’s bimonthly check last week and it started up just fine. I always shut off the fuel and run the carb dry though. Im going to finally drain and replace next month, it’s been sitting too long. Now I’ve added a bit along the way off course from running it, but its all pretty old gas. Will it keep, yah I guess it will, but probably not ideal!
  6. Deer cart, you can toss all your other crap on it as well and strap it down. Cruise kijiji, I bought a beauty for $50 2 years ago. It’s hauled out 2 whitetail and all kinds of other junk in and out of the bush when we can’t use a wheeler!
  7. Nice lookin Lynx. We get them on our back trail and by the bear barrels on the regular. They like to hunt the small critters that munch on bear bait. All kinds of unique visitors show up at the cans, including yogi! FYI if you have an iPhone, uploading is very easy!
  8. I JB welded a crack in the oil pan on the bottom of our 1992 kawasaki bayou 220 10 years ago. The kids are still tearing that old bike up today. If that is a split, I'd JB it, sand it as smooth as you can and hit it with some paint. My bet is it'll work just fine!
  9. I’ve seen worse. I had an old Johnson 25hp that ran flooded like this on many occasions when I was a teenager. It never crapped out on me. Yes if it froze it would be bad news, and certainly at some point with oil like that you could have a catastrophic failure. But I expect you’ll probably be ok as it was in a garage. Get the seals changed. As for leaving an outboard empty of gear oil. I did it once or twice when pressed for time in the fall on my old boat. No harm no foul. But you do need to put a few wraps of orange flagging tape around the lower as a visual reminder that you need to fill it up in the spring!
  10. It’s an excellent park and only 45 minutes from the north bay boat launch as well. I’ll give you gps coords.
  11. Funny that you mention that, there are a some US states that have banned trail cameras, or cellular trail cameras for hunting. Not that far of a stretch to ban some technology for fishing. I'd be some pissed if they banned ipilot lol.
  12. I will say that the terrova foot peddle saved me a fishing day on the Niagara once when the remote crapped out. I never use a foot pedal but I was glad to have it the one time I needed it, the remote is generally pretty reliable and I always carry spare batteries but that one went bad and I had to get a new remote.
  13. Some dude here mentioned simple green for cleaning mung off your boat. I tried it last year and it worked great.
  14. 7k? I’m sure it’s a quality item, but to me anything over 3 grand is getting silly for a bow mount.
  15. Cabelas says in stock online for $2300 plus tax. I’m not sure how accurate that is but worth a shot! Even if they drop ship it could be worth the wait.
  16. I’ve been pretty happy with my terrova.
  17. 1990's for sure. Can't remember how far back, maybe 95? I found OFC from that board also, I had some weird handle that I can't remember back then (not that my current one is much better), might have been part of my hotmail at the time, trouter something. I was mainly into steelhead then.
  18. I still deer hunt with a guy that I met off his hunting site years ago. Talk about internet dating!
  19. I remember the Zoo board well, run by Andy Rubaszek. It closed up shop shortly after he retired from the Zoology department. It was a good board, and I met a few guys back in the day off that site and fished with them. One of them is still a good buddy of mine! Most of my experiences where positive on that site, but like anywhere boys will be boys. Andy was a pleasant guy, and I believe he was heavily involved with Metro East anglers, their hatchery efforts and did a lot for the fishery and stocking east of the GTA. I got on that site at the beginning back when they updated once a week.
