  1. this thread has gone to who supports the outdoors, whether hunt or fish. i can state ofah has sat at the tables here in southern ont. the results were very good. ofah helped and lobbied for fisherman, and were successful to have changes made. without a voice its exactly as this threads going, no direction. just moaning on a keyboard does not get results. as aron stated we need concerted efforts especialy in this economic enviroment.. support your local groups guys.
  2. Sadly these companys see profit margins not quality. asian marketeers do not honor trademarks, copyright laws of north america.. resurgence of oldies as new, is just a new flair of hype. my beef is buying a lure,and it can not be exposed to sunlight or it warps or swells. thats unfortunaly trying to produce lures at a cheaper manufacturing cost.. the plastic shad raps from china are sad. the wire bends simply. i will stay with the north amerian products whenever possible. asian imports do not have quality standards.the newer better is in my humble opinion just another way to forcefeed fishermen. the fish will let you know.
  3. HI not to be negative, Sportfishing is down near 50 per-cent, along with boating.. back in the 1980 period the federal goverment put forth grat money for municipaltys for breakwalls, ramps and marinas. they now sit well under capacity. lost revenue from vacant boatwells. the mnr stance is to attempt to maintain not enhance the fisheries. the age old argument of lost opportunitys , will fall upon deaf ears. goverments after being downloaded upon from ottawa are cash strapped. lost jobs, no growth equal maintaing whats there at best. if you want ramps, parking areas they need to be maintained. citys and townships have to earmark tax dollars for these projects.. i live in southern ontario and have witnessed countless closures of marinas and sports good stores. my only postive things i see that have a viable outcome is to lobby and maintain whats available now. sportsfishing is in damage control.
  4. over priced and overrated. enuff said from a musky troller
  5. i have to say this. its on my bucket list
  6. i see your frustration. the goverment teaches a course. how to be inept.
  7. 5 gallon buckets are priceless. they carry everything from our treasures to fish.
  8. 6 gallon buckets. gotta be inflation. they used to be 5 gallon pails. happy new year lol.
  9. i have an 08 liberty. its been to the dealer 1 time for a flat tire. no issues on warranty. fuel is average 17.9mpg in city 22.5 hiway. the 08 model is roomier then the 07 or 06. . its surefooted in 4 wheel.
  10. know some folks that looked out on the lake. saw a bull moose. they looked thru there scopes. as it was a bull, they had a cow tag. they were charged for scoping. no shots fired. mnr attitude. fight it if you dont agree. 1000 mile return drive to court. thats sadly entrapment. northwestern ont has a few co,s that dont want hunters up there.
  11. hiatal hernias can be medicall found from a scope or an upper gi test. unfortunatly the surgical cure only has a 50 per-cent sucess. medicine and DIET change you can turn the symptoms off. diet seems to be the largest factors due to all the crap society eats and actually calls food.
  12. 1999 i blew out l5. i was sent to 12 specialist. after gruelling epidurals, cortizone, flacet injections therapy i was deemed SCREWD nobody in ont wants to operate on patients with spinal stenossis.. sciatica has subsided but i have been left with bad nerve damage in my legs from this. i wish anyone well on this issue. living on pain managment sucks. what sucks worse is our health care managment. . how is it insurance companies can get specialist appointments and mri booked in 2 weeks when joe avrage waits a year to see a specialist and 6 months for a mri..

  14. when i started in a lumber yard 1.25 per hour.. gas was 20 cents a gallon. a new plymouth fury 2 was 35 hundred... no fast food, cellphones cable and we only had 4 channels in black and white. i listened to leafs cames on a crystal radio set. that was the days when mom was home raising us, and you never questioned dad. born in the early 50,s when folks knew the neighbor, . funny world we live in t-day
  15. great hunt and great memories. your son says it with his smiles. harvesting and enjoying the meat is another bonus.
  16. years back when i was chartering, we needed a station licence at 36 dollars yearly. the vhf course was free at the time. vhf in the right hands is a very valuable tool on big waters.. there are abuses ob st clair. one guy feels he has his as a chat line. i once asked him if he had 2 radios,,,so he could hear himself talk.
  17. this is sadly just another pork barreling option from our leaders. campaign funds and suddenly new legislation abounds. as there were a couple incidents that were highlighted, now this.as a society we are pushing to remove the HAVESand create the have-nots. unfortunatly the goverment see,s fit to further reduce the middfle class thru taxations, program .reductions. well folks remember at the polls. call your mpp.
  18. nice story guys. weather looked great. i see the woodies were working again. brian is a cool guy.
  19. sad but true. 1 factor. these folks are on their own time. does this mean we will hang the doctors, lawyers and all workers that have a drink on their own time. how about having a barbecue with family. your kids running around but you and your family friends consume alchol while there playing. in reality its a society issue not just blue collar workers. oh ya bye the way. i own a jeep. its never been back for any defects or warranty issues in 2 years of driving.. the media constantly wants to endorse witchunts for ratings.
  20. totally sucks. i would spend the next 500.00 on moving.
  21. we troll exclusively. the norm. is 5 ft leaders. a good snap and swivel at both ends.remember do NOT go to heavy theres a difference. some super heavy leaders will kill crankbait action.
  22. hi just noticed this thread. lsclair is an awesome musky fishery. if you have planer boards try running your lures in the top 6ft. if not boat rods with a system of 4 and 40. that means 4 ounce inline weight and 40ft of line out. at 3.9 to 4.1 mph its a big fish set up. . we prefer hi action lures like woodies,,,minee mees, and the new handlebarz bucktails. as for leamington the waters very warm. the sheephead out number walleyes a millionto one. bring tons of crawlers, or wait till the water cools some for the western basin of erie.
  23. no surprise to folks in southern ontario. we have been under serviced, over taxed for years. our hospitals are sadly understaffed. as for mr mic-squinty he truly is a piece of work, along with his crew. living in essex county or kent county,, its sad to be down loaded manure.. seniors, under priveleged, dis-abled folks suffer the worse. wheres the voice of humanity for these folks????
