Hey Tybo,the 360 is running smooth

I even got your Logo all over it

Now thats as romo as you get,should be the cover of the next EA mag

Pete could start a new show

Queer eye for the muskie guy

or instead of the Next Bite it could be called The Next Night

Jamie your right Pete across the grass bwahahahahah

You gotta do it

Hey Petee ,just remember it takes a real man to wear a kilt

You are wearing a TUTU

The Pete dood is skinnier than I thought. Couldn't tell him apart from the rake. lol.

 

Must be all the musky, drugs and rock and roll.

Ya Moose,If I grabbed him in an arm bar,I snap his spine the twig he is

Looks like like he is getting raked just like in the photo

I always knew he was a candidate for the Pride Parade

You would look good on float

Been off line for week or more,they put twin V8 360s in my pc, ,we are peeling out

here's some info

Hey Holdfast,interesting tks for sharing,my Grand Dad fought at Vimy(Albert Thorpe),He passed on at the age of 84 .

he was one of the lucky ones that survived,he went onto WW2 with my dad and uncle

My uncle passed away last week in B.C at 85 and my dad goes under the knife today at 83

You are right,not many know about it,seems those that served to liberate freedom are in their last years.Its trully nice to see some recognition to those that fought for what we have today

There are only 2 soldiers left,one in TO and the other in the U.S.A

A special message is written on my Nana's stone and its has great significance

" Gods greatest gift rememberance"

Could not be more true

Ya know what Art

I am told they even eat bucktails

An amazing gesture of kindness and generosity

Kudos to all for your actions

Speedtroll,my thoughts are with you

Hi Leafland,just wanted to say

Kudos on your involvement with your son and questions on the board

what you bring forth is exactly what fishing needs,revitalisation and continuation of the sport

Welcome to the board,look forward to reading your experiences with your son and family

The good people here will more than provide informative assistance,they will share their experiences which I think both of you will enjoy

Nice pic,thanks for sharing

Dont have any hot spots,but I would recommend you and your dad or mom spend a day on the water with Rob Hyatt or Dany Columby if you regularly visit the area.

They are very familliar with Nippising,I suspect you would learn alot from both these guys and enjoy your day

Rob Hyatt

Might be others on the board which may provide further help

I thought you were gonna say look at his Pecker

Hey Mike it all comes down to thinking like kids,too many times we think like adults and try to get kids involved in adult ways

Fishing is more than angling,more than catching

Its everything in the surroundings of fishing that makes the experience what it is

Watching your son on the ice that day quickly brought out what it is they seek in fishing

BTW,I got your minnow net

Now thats nice

Day of resurecting props

Those were the days when Checkered shirts were cool

I guess 10 000 cats wore em out

I suspect if we privatized our natural resource with regional volunter watch dogs and administrators and financial equality upon all regions within their needs and contribution

We would be far better than govermentally runned

Simply run it like we are expected to run our households and business

Biologist could go out and do what they studied and love to do,work in the field and progress instead of worrying about what their budgetary defencies

Kennyman,I always look at my glass as half full

I enjoy everyone opinion or perspective on all matters no matter what my perspective is

What Aniceguy did is good,I mearly pointed out what the political party he approached did

He did approach the opposition which is not in power,great move no questions,take it with a grain of salt

Rick O understood what my message was,he explained it correctly

Ken,the prob financially stems from the top of the ladder all the way down for all departements

Till you see what I have posted reached among all goverment levels and departments,Dude minute accomplishements will be reached because the monies that could be used to fully succeed are derived into nothing studies,nothing inquiries and so on

Ken face it,50% of all tax earnings in every provinve and Canada is wasted

You think a PM deserves 250 000$ in salary,I dont think so

They are civile servants living off our means (something wrong with that equasion) and earning more than the average ?

Just so you know,they work less hours per year than most of us and when they do more they are well compensated

Does this not mean we should halt our efforts,no just be aware of expect

Dont be fooled with all you read in the media

I think you have taken my post wrong,seems others understood my message

Yes I dont believe in the goverment,why its created a whirlwind of waste and un-accountability and un-retributional towards its wrong doings

I've been witness to it in many aspect of govermental runned departements

I understand and plight with some of the lacking in our natural resource but the heart of the prob comes from within the Gov

The solutions suggested are good,but once again

Co self financed by violation fines will lead to funds being derived towards other departments or quotas being instilled (you think thats a joke/dude its reality)

I do agree fishing licenses should increase,I have no probs supporting this

Fishing licenses and the use of these funds is under funded

What do you really think I can do,not much

Become Prime Minister,the entire political and govermental structure must be changed and become integral

Not in my lifetime

Rick could not have said it any better

I do agree with his suggestion,first better clean up goverment because they will squander it

Ken I am speaking up about the true matter of the problem

I think you failed to see it

Ken,I just earn a living and pay child support from this way of life,nothing else

I share my experience withh all simply because I am common and simplistic as all just as others share their livelyhood or life experiences and knowledge

Ken,in reality our finacial and goverment structure cannot last in this worldwind of waste,unfortunatly we as servants should halt all hand over till finacial accountability is attained.

Fact is provincialy (every province exept Alta) and Nationaly the income received is by far more than enough to bring things to stability and accomplishements,the wasting and employee cut backs should be acted upon

There are more office workers than field workers at any of the Provinces natural resource departement

A prime example of waste

Truck plates in quebec are 450$

225$ for general road fees

225$ anti pollution

So if I get this straight, my 225$ Anti pollution tax has gone into Provincial air purifiers so they we can breath clean air from my polluting truck with my 225$

My ars!

Lake Simcoe has in re-introduction phase since 1996,we are now 2007

Do you know how much money has been allocated?

Do the results equat to the return in investements ? NO

Just so you,I sat in a meeting which almost could have set a precedents to selling off one of our natural reproducing fisheries for no other reason than to subsidize budgetary constraints.

There was no scientific or natural resource reason to do so

I voiced my and others opposition to it and received flack from the natural recorces folks

What did I learn from that meeting,disapointement in the reasons some decisions are taken

Most of all the wearness of the true information placed forth

I called a spade a spade,some did not like it,To bad

Carefull at creating or generating more govermental funds

I dont think politicians are honest people and I dont think they have our best interest at heart or in responsibility

More so their own personal finacial future

Yes ,we should keep trying,I dont think handed over more Un-Contralable and Un-accountable monies is the solution

Actually Ken its an all around good conversation

Ken,I am short crotched and 180 pounds,slim and trim thats all the weight I got

Remember this in life,never look up to others,look at them

If your ever felt like to look up to someone,there not worth looking at

Well if your heart is really into getting kids fishing

Start by looking at what www.takemefishing.org/ does

http://www.fishingworks.com/kids_fishing/index.cfm

http://www.aa-fishing.com/kids-fishing-trips.html (read each states value in creating intrigue)

lots of tips

Set your club aside,use it as a collective assembly of aid only

Second,I think to innitiate kids in a competitive enviroment is not needed,As Chris S Stated it will naturally come

You really want to get kids fishing its simple,take them along the banks,fish a little,walk along the banks turn over rocks ,look for crayfish,frogs,tad poles,insects,bring them back home ,place them in an aquarium so the kids can observe em and nurture them,even put some local tiny fish caught or trap minnows

Basicaily ya want to get kids into fishing,get em going the same we did as kids

We will not get kids into fishing trying to interest them into adult ways of fishing

Its actually pretty simplistic

Too much focus on the "fishing " part of it

You need the peak their interest in fishings entire surroundings

Anyone ever approach Hagens or any other aquarium manifacture to aid in such activities

JPD,great effort and works on your part with the kids in your local area schools

Dont want to bust your bubble

Keep dreaming,they aint gonna fix it

Unless you have a tax grab to offer

I hate to tell ya,The Gov only purpose is to grab as much off of its citizens as they can and do little

Dont kid yourself waste and non decision occur at all levels and departements

If they really have intentions of correcting our financial situation and envirometal situation

1)They would decrease their salaries (mp's)

2)They would trim gov employees by 30-50% and number of MP's

3) They would have citizen watch dogs to ensure good accountibility for all departements

4) They would get more hands on work done and accomnplished,less office work

5) Stop sending money for Foreign aid

6) Stop subsidizing cheap labor across seas

Just remember .50$ on 1$ for tax goes towards salaries

Dude dont get snowballed by some politician no matter what party they belong to

Looks like they listen to your plight for votes

Politicians are like asian carp,they are invasive in our lives

I applaud your efforts,good luck

I read a comparative some time back on fluro

Seems the Maxima fluro had the best all around abrasion resistance and strength

I am gonna try some this year,for muskies I have always used Seaguar

I thought some of you would like it,its nostalgia

Thats from years back,look at the cars in the video

Lots of Fish Crisp moments

Ya Lew it is pretty good,when you factor in the number of anglers back then harvesting to todays CNR anglers and post mortal release,I kinda wonder if we are not causing more mortality in this day and age than yesteryear

Yes some areas were affected heavily by harvest but overall today,our impact may be more significant than yesteryear's

Cool oldie nonetheless

Only solution is to sterilize the section of the rivers that contain em

I watched the entire video series,the bio is sincere in his quest but I think he's waiting for a miracle

In this case they should embark on sterilization of affected rivers and proceed with re-stocking species which would die off from the sterilization

Since they know where they originated from,I wonder if a class action suit towards the States that originally had em is in order

They have migrated all the way into Ohio,they are moving very fast up the illinois river and mississipi

I think all states affected have no choice but to act before they invade the great lakes

Although they may not agree with my solution,its the only solution

Yes many other species will be affected but in this case,there's no alternative

Most disapointing thing is we see our Natural resources people no matter where you live do nothing

There are no predators that would control these fish

Strerilization the only feasible and viable solution to eradication

They could set up barriers and bassin for affected areas with filtration system,yes its costly but compared to a full blown invasion and destruction,its minute

Some oldies for ya

Interesting video

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yS7zkTnQVaM...ser&search=

Thats the way to do it,unfortunatly the monies will go to the coffers and not be directed towards the resource

Whish all infraction/fines should be directed back into the Natural Resource treasury
