  1. The McCallen 12 year old is one of the finest in the < $100 range. If your pockets are deeper, grab an 18 year old bottle.
  2. Aikmans's in Mississauga near 5 and 10 will set you straight for sure. I would guess $15 - 20 per reel tops. Would you do it for less?
  3. My best buddy services and refits Mazak and Mitsubishi cnc machines all over Ontario, you might know him already. PM if you wish. He knows the industry, and is always looking for experienced help. See how this works?
  4. Attaboy, Fishingnut. Gotta keep looking after the short term credit items. A little longer out, make a coupla plans involving some of your industry contacts, using your experience and goodwill. Get on the phone, and make some in person calls. What are your experience and skillset items? What industry we be talkin? You will soon switch into a search mode, where every conversation you have works towards your goal. Like this one, for e.g. You could have mentioned your field of expertise, btw. Best to you, Fishingnut. We all gotta sell, everyday.
  5. Yup give that guy plenty o room, just like the dude I saw on the bus wearing a grass skirt, rasher of bacon around each ankle, a sharks tooth necklace and a HUGE wad of bubblegum on his forehead.
  6. You don't have to explain jokes to Glen, he gets em all right. Just t a l k r e a l s l o w.
  7. Ian Brown justifies the CBC right there, no questions. All by hisself.
  8. I wear a pair of Sorels that are 36 years old. I've replaced the liners and laces, of course, but the leather uppers and rubber bottoms are still working. I put a whole tin of Dubbin into those boots in the first coupla years, and the leather is still soft, supple and waterproof. I've worn these boots icefishing for decades, exclusively walking and sitting out on the ice all day. I recently cut a foot bed liner out of closed cell foam, used for packing material. That will make them so warm I might have to take them off from time to time. Pack boots are definitely the warmest for icefishing, and those Kamiks look deluxe. They don't do well treking over heavy terrain tho, and the hiking hunting style of the Rockies would be much better for that, with more support, tread, and a smaller outline.
  9. Our guess at high noon is just an estimate, and it fluctuates with the seasons, sometimes before the clock, sometimes after. That's why our days change length 'unevenly'. The Savings Time thingy helps even things out a bit, but not perfectly.
  10. Tough to beat Lowry's Season salt for a general purpose picker upper.
  11. Just beautiful, Mike. Thanks very much.
  12. Emil, We can talk tomorrow morning, I can set you up. PM me your phone #, or call me after 9 am, see pm
  13. Hope you're back on your feet shortly, Glen.
  14. Got's my third guitar, a sliver flute, two kbds and a whole pantload of harmonicas. Cross style in the blues language is ok. Also a two.5 octave vocal range. Music? I can bring it. Pms are gratefully received.
  15. Nikwax is the product I use to clean and refresh waterproofing on Goretex. Should help on those wet snowy days, good call.
  16. 'Fatal Attraction' comes to mind here. It's all fun and games until somebody boils a bunny rabbit.
  17. A little early for this area, Mr. Parker. Don't really want to see you on the Darwin Awards finalist list.
  18. Best to Gary Vacek and family. Everything in its time.
  19. There was no intent to offend UrbanAngler, but I think your chances of success are slim to none, but it really all boils down to the amount of time you wish to spend on this.
  20. WB, Thomas. Sry to hear about your day, but at least you're young. I used to comfort myself years ago by telling myself that there were at least 500 folks within 5 miles that are dealing with the same type of problem as me. Suck it up and move along there, buddy. You can't just stop posting whenever you want, btw.
  21. Ol' Yeller will be eating out of the freezer, Roy, if dinner would be Glen's catch. Somehow, I fear that all those fishies got away. Took em quite a while, and it was a helluva walk.... If that were me, I mighta kept those sweet crappies and served em up with some nice deep fried potatoes.
  22. Welcome back to Tony. We certainly missed yer ugly mug around here. But I need to know what's wrong with onions in the gweeches? Hope to meet up on the hardwater.
  23. Nice sporty jacket on the Cliffy too.
