Found the original pic from 2005.

Posted last year my 2007 trolling motor would cut out at more than 1/2 of full speed. Lots of you guys said get a new pedal. Got one off Amazon. Tried it this morning. Budda boom! Runs like a champ. Different design. Hope it lasts. Thanks everyone for your help

Couldn’t be happier with what the kids got for my 60th. Thanks Guys! Advanced Taxidermy made a replica of my biggest ski. Caught in 2005 on Scugog. 52 inches. Based on measurement and photo. Hanging at the cottage now. BTW I posted an add to rent our cottage this summer if anyone is interested. 3 wks. Under miscellaneous.

Looks like water levels on Pigeon are receding somewhat. Last year we had the same high levels and then had a brutal storm with crazy winds. That combo caused a lot of damage. Lots of wood and docks floating by afterwards

I wonder how the walleye spawn success rate will be this year. Lots of water. Shouldn’t be any high an dry eggs. Let’s hope

Good fishing up there?

Not long enough for me

Checked today. North Pigeon melting fast. Bet will be ice free by next weekend given the forecast.

Great idea. My old Barbie is just about done. Will try this.

I’m thinking he had it trimmed poorly for it to circle like that.

Good ol boy got lucky

Do carp spawn there or are they enjoying walleye spawn?

Looking for something special to do for my wife and my birthdays coming up. iFly indoor ski diving in Whitby caught my eye driving by on the 401. Anybody try it or know anything? https://www.iflytoronto.com/

Nice to see

Found this on CBC this morning https://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/tapeworm-southern-ontario-1.5093511

Nice. Did you stare or show some respect? ??????

Have you tried the oral meds? Bravecto, Nexguard or Simperica?

‘‘Tis the season again. Ticks are waking up after being dormant in the cold. 4C and warmer and they are active and feeding. They are more active in spring and fall than in summer heat. Protect yourselves and remember to do a tick check at the end of the day if you’ve been in the woods or tall grass. You won’t feel a tick bite or a tick that’s feeding on you. They stay attached for 5-7 days. You need to see it and pull it off carefully by the head immediately against you skin. If you get it off early when it’s small the chance of getting Lyme disease is much reduced. Dogs should go on preventative medications now. Till about Christmas. On another note, there is a new canine tapeworm emerging in Ontario. Biologists are finding it in about 25% of wolves and coyotes. If your dog picks it up he will not likely get sick but will expose you to the tapeworm eggs. These microscopic eggs, if consumed accidentally, can cause serious health problems in people. Im putting my patients on a new monthly dewormer that gets these and other worms. To protect the dog and the family. Called Interceptor Plus. Talk to your vet. Cheers, Peter

Great video. Never know what you’ll catch on the ocean. We went out of Mazatlan in January bottom fishing. Just ocean perch and trigger fish. $300 US. You did way better. What did you pay?

I’m hearing that new diesel trucks are a nightmare. With the emission requirement maintenance and sensors often failing and shutting things down, truckers are looking to gasoline engines. Companies are springing up to refurbish old Diesel engines that are exempt from new emission requirements. Business is booming for them. Will electric save the day?

Sounds like the show has improved significantly. I’ll be going next year for sure.

Took a run up to the cottage. Gannon Narrows wide open. Water levels low. Main lake still locked up. Surprised to see a loon already. Good sign
