Well i am over my fishing budget for a while so i have to cheap out a bit and this is the only left hand reel i can find. It's rated for 245 yards of 14# line so i thought it might be strong enough. I could go to an ABU C-4 6500 but it is not any better i bet. Too bad the Pete Maina reel is not left hand. I hope its ok for one muskie anyway. Or maybe i can find a used one or one on sale. I have a bit of time now to make up my mind anyway. I also have to keep in mind that my little boy is 3.5 years old and he likes to throw things overboard. Thanks for any ideas.

I got the pro line thanks Dan. I did some tests on it and it is good. I hope to use the 6lb on some brook trout. I didn't see that address i will look. I just don't know if i like this reel.

I just got some muskie stuff from Cabela's. A few big donkey lures, 65# braid and a bunch of other stuff. But the reel is not what i wanted (it's broken). The stupid plastic push bar is broke right out of the box. When it was put in the box it must have been slammed home like a Joe Carter home run. The outside of the box looks mint. I hate the clicker on/off button it is hard to use. I am not too sure about the push bar either. I don't want to carry ten spares for a days fishing. So i ask you should i get a different brand or get Cabela's to fix it or take it to the repair shop? If i ship it back to Cabela's i think i am on the hook for the shipping.

I got a new Honda outboard and its perfect. I got alot of other good stuff and i am still waiting for some muskie stuff from cabela's.

I have not looked. How bad is it? Terry should i look?

There is a few that fish out there that are on this board. You better get fishing cause it closes soon. I will pm you.

Don't come back until you have a freezer full. I mean go and have fun. I flip flopped on going about 100 times but the 3.5 hour drive kind off put me off.

Put the guns away and just drive around in your car. Good luck on your bow hunt.

In 1988 there was a lot more forage in Georgian bay. There is not a world record fish in Georgian Bay right now. (Wayne. That CO don't know diddle.) I think we need to pick a location based on food supply not the size of the water body. Where is the best muskie food :unsure: ? That is the question. Who has the answer?

I am going to be busy for the rest of today i have to take all of my muskie pics down off the wall. I guess i will do all of the other fish too just to be safe.

Yes and i found a better use.

Wayne thank you very much for the great day on the water. For November the weather was perfect.

Welcome to the board. I don't know about the cats though. I only fish them in the summer.

Five aint bad for one day i guess. But did you see any MONSTERS? WTG. I was at work and now i am jealous.

Get well soon and may your next fish be a beauty.

I am wondering what the potential is of lake simcoe to produce musky. What can you predict.

Does anyone use Norman speed clips? Are they any good? What about the musky size ones are they good for big musky? Thanks for any help.

In the last picture the guy is sitting in the bow holding his head. I guess he is not having any luck selling it.

If i buy something from you, i can reel in a musky? WTG that is great. Keep at it Wayne.

Is that for me? Its my colour.

Yep its over.

Thankyou very much Wayne and Rob. It was an awesome day on the water. I hope you catch the monster Wayne.

Leave your food out in the open. That way when the bears are done eating it and you they will be full for when i go camping. Bears don't kill a lot of people but i would not want to be one of them.

Nice shooting.

I aint never hung no pack. I aint never saw no bear in camp either. I store my cooler under the table to keep the lid down about ten feet from my tent. There was a guy killed by a bear at that camp site though. I am glad i was not there at the time. My cousin was and he said it was not pretty. I read some where that those loud air horns will scare a bear away. Anyone know if that is true???
