  1. Easy way to test your speakers. First you need an ohm reader(crappie tire multimeter will do). Unplug your speakers and place your ohm reader probes one on the negative and other on positive should read 3-8 ohms depending on the speaker. Your radio should have 2 12v wires and one ground(negative). Simply test these connections if all is good you will probably need a new radio. Lots of cheap ones out there or go with the portable radio option. Remember you get what you pay for ( at least in most cases)
  2. I too went through troubles warranty replacement for my waders at BP . I too was turned away. Didn't have the receipt because it was a gift. Emailed head office in the US stating what I had gone through and how disappointed the way I was treated. I guess they saw the thousands of dollars of have spent there though their loyalty card, because with out a pause they mailed me a gift card worth the total value of the waders with just taking my word for it . That's what I expect from big chain stores .......
  3. Well I found a hard rubber fish in the baby section at Walmart . One of those bath toys. It works perfect . Just had to stuff it with 4 1 once fishing weights. Will take some pictures and post it later. Tested the camera up to 60ft works fantastic.
  4. so i made my own under water camera system. Need help on one last touch. I am looking for a fish style housing for the camera. the lense is only about a twoonie size and lenght is about 4". i tried looking for a plastic fish like toy or a used housing from an old fishtv unit with no luck. any ideas??? last i used a piece of plumblers pipe to house it but i didn't like the way it looked. so just to give you a few details on what i used for those who are curious: used a car back up camera that i got from ebay $18(wide angle color and nightvisionalso waterproof)works great!! 9v battery from electronic store$12 CAT5 WIRE 120FT. $9 AND MY old 7" portable dvd player witch has av input. so again not to stray from my question is can anybody help finding a housing?? thanks
  5. If you fish Ontario rivers this one is great to see what flow the rivers are at : http://www.wateroffice.ec.gc.ca/text_search/search_e.html
  6. I prefer to just leave some river water in the zip bag then when I get home air dry them over news paper then use tiny zip bags to pack them ( the ones that look like a drug dealer would use !!lol!!). This way they keep their color and harden up just enough also just have to thaw only what I need not the whole lot.

  9. While fishing the maintland for bows a few years back. To my surprise a big chinny inhaled my dew worm. I guess sometimes they hit ????????
  10. Okuma aventa is a good starter float reel. Close to your price . I have it as a back up. Using islander for last 5 years. Tried lots of higher end Ones but still prefer my islander. There is a new float reel in your price range " rapala r type" float reel . I think it was $140 at lebarons. Seems to be ok for the money.
