  1. Hope all turns out OK, we are the same age if I remember correct.
  2. Grimsby has one https://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/station_page.php?station=45139 and if we go Erie , Port Colborne got one too https://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/station_page.php?station=45142
  3. Retired 11 years ago here after 31 year's in the steel industry, in, where else, Hamilton. Last few years I was one of the 2 slitter operators, got me off weekends and 12 hours shifts, no 12 hour nights was treat. Along the way I operated a crane for around 15 years then quality control for a 10 year spell making it to lead hand and waste water treatment technician for a bit, then the slitter. Retire and save gas, we went to one vehicle and that is a 2006 just about to turn 90,000 km. ?
  4. They really like that scrub willow. good pics?
  5. Back before I retired in 2008 the Loonie was actually for a while worth more than the US dollar, it being at 75 cents not does help.
  6. Port Colborne east to the mouth of Niagara River for smallies anyway.
  7. Check the exceptions to zone 19 regulations for Port Colborne, been this way since I was a kid, over 60 years. July 15th opener keep everyone happy?? https://files.ontario.ca/environment-and-energy/fishing/2017/2017_FMZ_19_English.pdf
  8. Seen a few spec lakes in Haliburton get smallies introduced, maybe accidentally or more likely by some intentioned a__hole, they were never were the same afterwards. I like smallies too, but.
  9. That was the biggest let down by a Toronto sports team since May 13th, 2013. Just hoping now it doesn't go 7 games, cause I got a bad feeling on how that will turn out
  10. It was probably the perch, I've seen lakes where the black spot is so thick on perch they feel like sandpaper but Pickeral in the same lake are virtually clear.
  11. MJL, check the label on the livestock spray I posted, same amount of permethrin as the Sawyers and as close as your neighourhood TSC. https://www.tscstores.com/UltraShield-EX-950ml-P17980.aspx
  12. Treat your jacket with this stuff, do not apply to your skin. All the guys turkey hunting use it on their camo gear for sitting in the spring for long periods for ticks and other critters. EDIT: this product contains Permethrin https://www.tscstores.com/UltraShield-EX-950ml-P17980.aspx
  13. just don't do sushi and you're good ?
  14. Lost Johnny a few years back, now Dr. John is playing with him again, R.I.P. btw this is from an 80's show " In Session " one of the best things CHCH Hamilton ever did musically.
  15. I believe depending on the age the boat was first registered it may not need to be renewed, at one time they didn't expired in 10 years. How long has your dad had the boat?
  16. I could see the oil changes being a stickler if you had a claim, but if there were no claims , how in Hades does the oil change thing even come into play ?
  17. I believe at one time the pond with the trout was open season all year.
  18. Wow, haven't been down there in a lot of years, old age sucks, but is the water ever high, up into the trees. Nice going?
  19. 9 years old and already doing promos, I believe he is an Aussie, I think he gets it and got the guitar faces down pat too
  20. Got hooked on blues way back mid sixties when a bunch of British bands repackaged it and sent it back to North America, this guy should be far more well known than he is one more for the heck of it
  21. I often had more life jackets stashed than people on board, I hope this wasn't an extra jacket and you could cover the people onboard with legal jackets or I would have told him to pound salt up an orifice.
  22. Fishcakes, made with a bit of mashed potato, eggs, and spices .
  23. As one that started with the original Lowrance green box Fish-Lo-K-Tor flasher, really, if you don't have your own boat and probably will just suction cup it on a rental, all you really need to do is locate structure , I'd cheap out at this point and wait until you get your own boat for all the bells and whistles, probably too you will have a better idea by then about what you want in a fish finder.
  24. I was 14 in '64 too, same year I remember going with a friend and his parents to their place just south of Point au Baril, near Brooks Landing at the end of Dillon Road, same thing, rocks everywhere and many in a place you would not expect, middle of what you would think be open water.
  25. At halftime I was thinking , CRAP, they are going back to Milwaukee and will probably lose the series, Superman Kawhi Leonard came through yet again, that guy is by far the best player on any team so far in any of the playoff series, definitely a front runner for MVP.
