  1. so what happens next?!

     

    Are you going to try to recover your sled? Are you legally obligated to notify the authorities otherwise??

     

    If you have comprehensive insurance, you'd have to file a police report in order to claim for your sled.. so if you're not going to make a claim, do you just leave it there?

     

    Some inquiring minds would like to know!

  2. Amen brother!!

     

    I sent in an old v-rod with a broken tip for repair to Peterborough. I figured what the hey, if it can't be fixed they'll ship the rod back to me.. no big thang.

     

    3 weeks later, I get a slip at my door telling me to come pick up a parcel at the UPS store.. I thought, oh right, that stick... they probably returned it to me with a letter telling me sorry, yada yada..

     

    I opened the tube and was just floored.. they sent me a brand new crucial.. no questions asked!!

     

    How wicked is that?! :w00t:

  3. Youre perfectly entitled to disagree. But when there are no Chinnies left at the Credit....which will be soon....they will move to the Ganny.

     

    I had my blinders on when the Atlantic program intensified on the Credit. We all thought it would benefit all species. Guess what, it didn't. And that is a fact.

     

    How do you figure that?! There's no chinnies in the credit cause there's zero return from the runs.. The chinny fishery around Port Credit is pretty much %100 put and take. And it's gonna stay that way, because of the barriers up-river to suitable spawning areas.. ie. Streetsville and Norval - The most epic waist of money from the ministry of no results, IMO)

     

    On the opposite side of the spectrum, the chinny fishery around Port Hope is mostly natural.. because those returning fish have access to proper spawning grounds.

     

    I think the MNR in shifting towards the Ganny because... ding ding ding, they're realising that regardless of how much stream rehab is done on the Credit, the return is gonna nill if you don't remove those barriers to fish migration!! If the atlantics are not allowed to do their thing on their own, then you can forget a self sustaining run of salars..

  4. Here's a few... from the Archives!!
