  1. I've fished with a pile of guys/gals from this wonderfull site.

     

    Posts like this come every now and then. I have an expanding OFC Bucket List of folks I would like to fish with.

     

    Not to point anyone out.... But:

     

    Fish up north with Moosebunk

    Go an a Mike Borger Adventure

    Hit the rivers around the Sault with Tdun

    Go bass fishing on Simcoe with Cudz (preferabliy while he is supporting the "monkey tail beard".)

    Fly into the temagami with Irishfield

    Beat the rivers with BillM and Brian for a day

    Hammar some geese with Sinker

    Hit 6-mile for a day with Bugugli

    Musky hunting on LSC with some of the musky guys!

     

    The list is much longer then this.. But I don't have time right now to type it out.

     

    It's funny, becayse everytime I think of who I want to fish with from this forum, my list keep growing longer and longer.

  2. I see it the same was as the warranty you get on a new set of Shingles for your roof.

     

    If your shingles have ever see sun - VOID

    If your shingles have ever see rain - VOID

    If your shingles have ever been hot - VOID

    If your shingles have ever been cold - VOID

    If the wind has ever blown hard on your shingles - VOID

    If your shingles are in stagnant air - VOID

    If you have ever looked at your shingles the wrong way - VOID

    If you installed your shingles - VOID

     

    I realize I am exadurating a little bit :whistling:

     

    But I can definiatally see adding a jackplate will void the warranty on your boat and motor in SOME situations, but not all, which seems to be what Lund is also saying.

  3. I gotta disagree with the early morning comment.

     

    I've never had a hangover so bad it stopped me from getting out on time.

     

    I've been in the ice hut at 5am still hammered from a few hours prior!

     

     

    X2. I've had to make my fishing partner drive my rig to the launch while I puked out this window.

     

    It was duck hunting, not fishing. Same deal IMO.

  4. So your advising me to to run another 150 hours on my brand spanking new outboard with water getting in the lower unit?

     

     

    Leak tests only take a few minutes. Well worth the effort.

     

    Hey, are you really going to fish 150 hours before end of the season. What's that, 2 months. 75 hours a month. That's almost 20 hours a week. Busy guy! :Gonefishing:

  5. Fall fishing = NO gloves.

     

    This time of the year is used to condition my fingers for the up coming ice fishing season.

     

    If my hands get to cold, I take a break for a few minutes, and warm them up in my pockets.. :whistling:

  6. I have two sets my self. The big traditionals for deep fresh snow. And MSR Denali for more packed crusty snow.

     

    The denali also has an extra padle you can add to the back to give you even more float.

     

    If I'm doing a long trec, the snow conditions don't matter, I will use the Denalis. I have bad knees, and the traditional shoes really bother me when doing long trecs.

     

    To answer your question, I have never used Faber before.

  7. Nice pics Lew.

     

    I was lucky enough two see two bald eagles across the road from my house last year.

     

    I thought it was such a rare occasion to see two flying together in my neighbourhood, that I should maybe go buy a lotory ticket or something. Then 5 minutes later, my wife called and told me she was pergnant :blink:

  8. I guess I hear what your saying. I don't fish LMB out of weed beds because I don't want to be ripping their faces off like the pro's do.

     

    But I would never intentionally use gear to light for a targeted species just to make it more of a challenge. Like other's have mentioned, it's to hard on the fish.

     

    I stay somewhere in the middle.

     

    As for braid, I don't use it to I can mussel fish around. I use it so for the extra sensitivity, and I find it easier to tie knots with.
