  1. Looks like fun, don't be surprised if you go back and they are gone, I found those guys usually smolt out to the big lake around the end of June.
  2. Cut your potato wedges and put in a bowl with about a tablespoon of olive oil, a splash of balsamic vinegar, a sprinkle of dried parsley and I usually just season with some Lawry's seasoning salt but you could use Cajun or your favourite Mrs. Dash. Toss the potatoes so they are covered and grill over heat for 20 to 25 minutes, I usually grill with everything on low and the lid just cracked, that's my hi tech rock in the foreground for keeping the lid ajar, the thermometer will read about 375 to 400 like that. I use that enamelled tray a lot for all sorts of grilled veggies. The burner in the background is a ceramic rotisserie burner, works real good too , just remember to put a drip tray under the meat to save a mess. It's just a CTC Centro that I got when I retired in 2008 but I've been really pleased with it.
  3. I think I saw just recently that they stopped allowing the harvest of turtles and frogs . I may be mistaken, it happens .
  4. I never knew how quiet and peaceful life was and then I got hearing aids edit: we got 2, his and hers Hers is the pitty looking one, no comment
  5. My little chicken and some mixed white and sweet potato wedges on the barbie, ate the drums and thighs tonite , we'll do a few sandwiches or another meal wit the rest .
  6. It's one of those Lilydales or whatever from Costco that come in a 3 pack for 20 bucks, a lot bigger than the rotisserie chicken I got there last week . Just the wife and I , it'll do for a couple of meals, spathcocked and rubbed with olive oil and seasoning on the BBQ..
  7. No, it's in a bloody vacuum bag. Being married is more like being wrongfully convicted, you are NEVER right/innocent, even when you are and it's NEVER worth proving the point.
  8. Just got a whole Costco chicken out of the freezer that is in a foodsaver vacuum bag, weighed it on the kitchen scale and it's 3 lb 13 oz. said to my wife that that a pretty good size and she says it will weight less when it's thawed . Sometimes it is not just worth pushing things any farther, didn't get married till after I was 49 but was a quick learner
  9. Just register one as home built and you are good to go

  11. I had a 14 foot by 30 patio put in along the back of the house 2 years ago, never priced concrete but I like the look of this better and its been rock solid on clay. http://permacon.ca/en/product-guide/landscaping/pavers/mondrianr-plus-80-pavers
  12. Put the grates on the steel bed of the landscape trailer and hit them with the 3200 psi gas power washer, re-oiled the cast iron and good to go. Thanks for the tip on the foil, it should work in between, wife is pretty anal about clean grates, me , not so much
  13. never had a problem, I always staked a Worden's Lil Corky as a strike indicator, oldtime steelheaders will remember those.
  14. Actually over here on the south shore, largemouth are more common than smallmouth, especially in harbours like 50 Point and Jordan.
  15. Full moon makes for lousy duck hunting , especially in heavily hunted areas, they feed at night and roost during the day, same could be said for deer hunting as well. Never really noticed it made a difference fishing.
  16. I've found the opposite, offshore wind pushes the warm water out and cold water wells up behind it , bringing fish onshore even into early summer. edit : thirty plus years here, I've caught virtually everything except a Walleye and a Muskie off the Grimsby pier and mouth of Forty Creek, even a few Eels back in the 80's.

  18. Look around at tackle swaps or yard sales, Fenwick at one time used a plastic triangular tube for their rods, bought a few from Greeny when he had the rod business in Mt. Hope.
  19. That's a lot of mounts, I'd doubt the value of the meat would cover the cost of the mounts done professionally, finding that a little strange. Maybe he did the taxidermy as well and was selling the mounts too.
  20. FWIW I just checked at 8:40pm and they all work except OLN , but at standard definition.
  21. I operated a crane loading trucks for almost 20 years and never did a truck driver tip me
  22. With an off shore wind and good water temps , I've got Brown Trout off the shore here right up till the end of June, pier is under about 6 inches of water right now , but there is a good new casting location on the Waterfront Trail at the Casablanca interchange off the QEW. https://www.google.ca/maps/@43.211885,-79.5986122,579m/data=!3m1!1e3
  23. Looks like good times I have an identical BBQ, for a CTC product it has been real good, the infrared rotisserie is awesome. Wife threw my brass BBQ bush away, said they are dangerous, a garden rake you say .
  24. I just checked it out to be sure before I posted and there was Henry Wazchuk and the Skins and Fins Show with the WFN logo in the corner.
  25. My house was built in '52, we had the 5mb/s service from Bell for over ten years and their satelite TV . Changed to the fiber for both as soon as it was available, internet is faster and you can watch TV during rain and snow squalls
