  1. for a guy called PorkPie.....well said
  2. Just finished watching Charlie do his thing. It's a good thing he's a good teacher and I often learn a thing or 2. But it's so annoying to hear him so blatantly promote his sponsors over and over ........ peter
  3. Health care is run by the individual provinces not Canada. The feds help fund it and set guidelines. If you are really in trouble and need urgent lifesaving care, you will get it, and fast. And some of the best in the world Sick Kids Sunnybrook St Michaels TGE Mt Sinai This urgent care will however bump less urgent cases and cause delays. Where there are still unacceptable wait times is for specialists, cancer care and joint replacements They are working on it and have set target wait times but progress is slow, unfortunately. It helps to make lots of noise. Squeeky wheel ........
  4. just panfish and pike, I believe
  5. Welcome aboard. Lake O can be sweet, or she can kick your ass and laugh as you drown. Always get a CURRENT and LOCAL report/forecast. Winds can be fine at home. You get to the lake and things are way different An 18 ft, deep V hull will be great, but no match for a 6+ ft wave be safe above all peter
  6. Beauti fish. I've fished at the powerplants at Niagara. Until I heard a few years ago a charter lost 2 guests overboard as the boat got partially sucked under by the current. 1 drowned I believed. Can anyone confirm this?
  7. With this relatively quick thaw, any flooding out there?
  8. Nice spot you have there. I would have more sympathy for you, but your fishing up there smokes ours
  9. x2. the game is way too slow
  10. so....anybody know what the circular open water is on Chemong? underwater spring?
  11. Big Bone has good BBQ but not appropriate for a first date. Unless she's a butch
  12. was going to try a dypsy in the Kawarthas for eyes. also takes it away from the boat. can't hug the bottom as well as a weight or bottom bouncer
  13. Took a drive up to the cottage near Buckhorn today Gannon Narrows open as far as the eye can see either side of the bridge in the channel. Crazy circular area, about 100 ft in diameter, of open water on the south side of the Chemong causeway near the middle. Looks like open water, or else it's sitting on the surface. What's this all about?
  14. I have a Lund and have been thinking of doing the same. BPS has an adjustable post for about $120 and they also sell a seat for about $35 I think. Not sure what same would cost from the Lund dealer. Let me know if you find out. Can likely get on line too
  15. could be a lot longer than 2-3wks
  16. Just came back from the Cottage Life Show. I guy was selling raccoon proof roof vents. http://www.duraflo.com/Duraflo.aspx?CategoryID=102 Powder coated steel. Seems that folks have coons getting into their attics from them ripping the plastic ones off. Anybody have this problem? They are $50 each. I would need about 8. That's a fair bit of coin but might be worth it. Peter
  17. Hey Guys. Time to put the bird feeder up again at the cottage. Don't have a squirrel problem but every once and a while a coon will trash the feeder It hangs off a cedar tree from an L bracket. Any ideas on how to keep them away? Was going to pay the dog to piss on the tree regularly
  18. I'm about $800 for a $30K value boat. Lund/Yammy Had a $4500 claim year 3 after smashing lower end good on 3 Sisters Shoal on Pigeon Lake with $500 deductable
  19. X2 I use my Lund brackets with Scotty Orca rod holders for dipsey setups and musky trolling. Always braid. Been snagged bad as well. so far so good. I don't have my drag snugged too tight, though
  20. if you do, start saving for a new tranny, cooler or not.
  21. tough for sure. so sorry
  22. I bundle mine with the cottage Before the cottage, bundled with the house

  24. Gotta stop getting weather reporters from Washington DC..2 inches shuts down the Government
