I really don't get this sweet bi-colour " Peaches and Cream" type corn, I much prefer corn that tasted like corn and was all yellow like the variety " Seneca Chief " that was a popular variety in my youth. I purposely pick out the older ears in the bin to get some corn flavour.

Great minds think alike Bay ducks like Scaup , Oldsquaws and Redheads are doing well on a diet of zebra mussels as well.

Just a theory of mine, but, a reason for their increase is the increased water clarity from the filtering zebra mussels as they are sight feeders. In the sixties you were lucky to see your toes standing waist deep in Lake Erie, today you can often see bottom in 20 feet or more of water. Well that and no DDT making the eggs fragile.

This album is so freaking cool , even today. Somewhere in a milk crate in the basement

The best thing about being born in 1950 is the music of my youth didn't suck, well some of the pop stuff did but a lot sounds better today at 66 than it did as a teen. from 68

I like this statement at the end of said article Guess they don't remember the low numbers of the Giant Canada Goose, Branta Canadensis Maxima in the 60's , early seventies. Waterfowl hunting at Long Point they were protected then, because of the work of Lee Brown trying to get them re-established. Now we got extra seasons and bag limits just to keep them in check.

Second that, got some pretty good stuff back in the early 70's when in University, the Zumburger across from Roachdale College was a good place to score some primo stuff , but it's not crap compared to the grow op hydroponic strains of today.

I recommend getting the Restricted PAL the first time even though you don't think you'll need it, often interests change and I've seen personal firearms moved to restricted status requiring the extra certification.

I I had the album with that on it at University 69-74, it was one of the albums I put on when entertaining ladies in my dorm room

Bet hunters out there are sorry Notley is in charge.

Too bad it don't work that way, I got my Handbooks and Tests from the MNR, could have actually been the Dept of Lands and Forests back then , I was free to charge the going rate with nothing going to them. I assume the PAL course is the same, about '96 I got a letter from the Attorney General, Ministry of Justice asking me if I wanted to get dual certification, I assume all Hunter Ed guys got the letter and the MNR gave our names to the Ministry of Justice as possible candidates to teach the PAL course. I really doubt the office of the Attorney General gives any money to wildlife management. The OFAH club that I gave the course for did raise pheasants from day old chicks for years and release them in the fall, not many small local clubs like that anymore.

I can't believe how these courses have turned into a business and the fees charged . I did the Hunter Ed courses back in the 70's, for members and kids of the local OFAH affiliated Hunters and Anglers Club for the cost of the handbook and materials and used the clubhouse for the course.

He really went overboard for the camera after the shot, think he watched too many fishing shows growing up

I've had sausage that was quite good, there was some pork shoulder added for fat.

Almost looks like a collared bullet head jig, that some one forgot to put the hook in the mold on.

Not sure if you are even allowed to sell mounts legally. http://www.karinahunter.com/2012/07/are-you-allowed-to-sell-that-mnr-tips-on-what-may-not-belong-in-your-yard-sale/

Just got more rain here on the south shore of Ontario, watching the morning news , none of the damaging winds or hail here that they got on the north side

I don't know about Rugby, but I've heard it stated that a NFL Football game is actually less than 10 minutes long if you only count the time the ball is actually in play. Congrats to Penny

I subscribed to "Outdoor Life " for years, moved on to Shooting Times and Guns and Ammo " before this asshat Jim Zumbo, Jack O'Connor and Jim Carmichael were the men

No thanks , I gave up my OFAH membership after 30 years because of the FUDDS. Sold gunowners out with their " if it ain't a hunting firearm it should be banned mentality ", you can thank them for the semi auto 5 round restriction. edit : http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Fudd Learned a new word. zumbo works too : http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Zumbo

Tow vehicle brings up another expense . I immediately thought of some thing like a Proline Dual Console in at least 20 feet as a fishing boat that would keep mama and the kids happy too but you better have a vehicle that can tow 4 thousand with a whimper.

Seriously, this board is seems like a liberal/democrat love fest compared to most of the outdoorsman hunting /fishing groups I belong to.

COPD and Emphysema are no picnic either, what do the stats say about them?

A lot of plates sit right under the tail light assembly and a clear lens on the bottom allows the tail light bulb to illuminate the plate as well.
