The North Saskatchewan runs through Saskatoon. North is not the South. In the North Saskatchewan you have a chance to catch Monster Walleye and Pike. There is also Goldeye and Sturgeon as well as Ling. They say that fishing the weir is your best bet in Saskatoon.

See that's the Problem. We don't and shouldn't focus on Winter Sports. Its also no Excuse. What you Cant weight lift, Play Volleyball, Swim, Run, Play soccer, Basketball, Gymnastics, indoor during the Winter. We should be Competing with Australia, Poland and so on for medals. One or two Gold Medals is not satisfying, we, this Nation has a problem when it comes to Competitions and fitness. My kids got medals for participating because somehow its not productive to have a winner and a second place. We are SOFT and Getting Worse.

And the Best part of it is that the Lunatic Steve Kulls gave the Hoaxters money and now they're missing. You know it was a hoax when the Hunters went to Steve Kulls first and not the Scientists. There is a sucker born every second. I think its so funny.

One of these days over a beer, Ill tell you a story when me and two other Soldiers were invited by the Mayor of Pemberton to Parade with them during their Towns Birthday. Good Beer, Good Women, Good Fights, Good explanation to the RCMP the next day, but not such a good turnout for their Parade from us. Nice Town and even participated in a few of their Logging events and did well actually. Nice Country, but so was Chilliwack then.

Karma and Fate, Do You Believe In That Stuff?(NF)

I was going to say that I would be ticked if my neighbor decided to leave all the wood on my property, however your thread explains it Legally or at least insurance legality. Your neighbor though really shows maturity and understanding after the issue. Maybe his woman was behind it. As far as Karma, wheres your Horseshoe. -
Usually the natives dont start hunting in Algonquin till Sep or Oct, at least after labour day

It was really Hot this weekend, so I ended up fishing late Friday and Saturday. On Friday I got to Big River around 7 Pm, so I decided to stay close and went to Cowan Lake. It was mostly a test for my 9.9 Yamaha that I just bought and my new Portable Fishfinder. They both worked great and before I knew it , darkness fell. Back to the trailer to enjoy some whisky and beers while listening to Zepplin, Doobies etc. The next Day I decided to take a 40 min drive and fish Hacket lake. I got there around 6 Pm and the water was calm. I was alone which is the way I like to fish, of course I also had the Red Dog. Not much of a picture except to show the water and some back ground. Incidently you can see where at one time, the bottom of the boat once had a carpeted platform which I had removed. I find this boat unbelievable heavy. This picture shows the shoreline which is beautifully untouched except the up rooted trees from a storm last year. I decided that I would troll and maybe bait fish using frozen minnows. I would find out that trolling was more successful. I also decided to bring my ball cap light which proved a good Idea later when I cleaned the fish in the dark at the cleaning hut. My Tackle would be my Mitchell 300x which I use for casting, My Spider Cast with the Ugly Stick and Spider Wire for trolling and heavy casting, and my favorite,an ultra Light Daiwa 700 Tournament with an ultralight Eagle Claw. A 15 dollar rod I bought about eight years ago at Walmarts. I could never find a rod that comes close to the sensitivity. I would use this for bait fishing. My Main Trolling Rod would be a one Piece Berkly Hunter rod with an Ambassador C3 I caught several small Pike using my Rapala Perch color. As the sun went down the Pickerel started to hit. I caught this guy trolling 15 feet of water I would keep two Pickerel that I would eat once I got back to the Trailer What a Beautiful Sunset. Our Licence Plates is right when they call this place LAND OF THE LIVING SKY. I'm really not looking forward to the Winter, Where Did The Summer Go?

If there are wolves around, they will leave nothing, not even bone, so says my Indian neighbor.

Excellent Reel, found one at a second hand store in Pembroke for 20 bucks along the Omnis and cheap Zebcos and Quantums. Glad the owner wasnt a fisherman. The spool would of costed more.

Amazing, Phelps will have more gold Medals than this Nation. Good to see the USA ahead of the Chinese. Goes to show you how strong they are in almost all sports.

They are young adults. The point here is how on earth did these guys get into Canada. If they went here as a refugee or what ever excuse, how come they are being schooled and working a store abroad. No doubt our taxes helped them to go back to their motherland. As far as using the Canadian Citizen excuse for the government to intervene think about it. There's probably hundreds of criminals with Canadian citizen papers out there ready to cost us financially. Use that money for the real Canadians that are overseas doing their duty for this Country. Another thing, except for the odd immigrant, how many do you really think would have the courage to take up arms for this country. Haven't come across any except the odd reservist but usually they're there only for the money. Immigration should go back to the way it used to be the way my Wifes parents came to this Country from Iraq. 1. Sponsored by the church or place of employment 2. Located to an area away from the Big City. 3. A job waiting for him 4. a trade that Canada needs 5. 5 years of no criminal convictions and occasional background checks from the RCMP 6. everyone in the family has to go to school to learn English

OTTAWA - A second Canadian could face beheading in Saudi Arabia for his alleged role in the death of student. Sultan Kohail, 18, is now in line for the same possible fate as his brother in connection with the schoolyard death of a 19-year-old man Syrian man in Jeddah last year. His case, which was before youth court, has been transferred to the adult division of the Saudi criminal justice system, where the Montrealer could face execution if convicted. "It's a very disturbing turn for this case," said Liberal MP Dan McTeague, the party's consular affairs critic. Sultan and his older brother Mohamed Kohail were charged after a schoolyard brawl in January 2007 that involved dozens of teenage boys. The victim died of internal injuries. The pair say they are innocent and claim the Saudi judicial system has not afforded them a fair hearing - an assessment the Canadian government appears to support. Last spring, Mohamed Kohail, 23, was convicted in adult court and sentenced to beheading. Ottawa has asked for clemency, but it's unclear what steps are being taken to persuade the Saudis to spare Kohail's life. The younger Kohail was also convicted, but in youth court, and sentenced to 200 lashes. The conviction was overturned on appeal, but a new trial has now been set for adult court. "It's extremely urgent the Canadian government reinforce with Saudi officials at the highest levels of the need to ensure that all evidence is heard," McTeague said Wednesday. "If that is done, there's no doubt in anyone's mind that the two will be exonerated." Calls to the Foreign Affairs Department were not returned on Wednesday. McTeague says there are conflicting accounts of what happened and the two brothers were "running for their lives" from a gang of 15 youths that chasing them with sticks. Since being sentenced to death last March, the elder Kohail has unsuccessfully appealed his case twice. McTeague said a third appeal is under way. The Saudi appeals court has repeatedly asked a lower court to review new evidence, which Kohail's family says proves the innocence of the boys, but it has refused. Kohail's parents talked to nine witnesses who said that a stone fence toppled on the victim, Munzer Haraki, during the melee, causing the fatal injuries. The Saudi appeals court has the power to take over the case from the lower court but has so far refused. If all appeals fail - and if the family of the victim refuses blood money in exchange for forgiveness - only a rarely successful petition to the Saudi Supreme Council could commute Kohail's death sentence. Eight years ago the Kohail family immigrated to Canada and settled in Quebec. They returned to Jeddah in 2006 to run a furniture business. Lets see how my math is. That tells me they stayed in Canada just long enough to get their (I just sucked Canadians for free papers) . Too much of this crap going on. Not Canadians in my books. Kind of reminds me of the so called Canadian Lebanese fiasco.

Thanks Fisherman. Makes total sense, just not used to the Rod slightly forward. Thanks, I think this has been solved

LundBoy you kind of remind me of Tammy Fae or Jim Baker. I feel like a lightning Bolt may hit me. Seriously though, I think people are jumping to conclusions. About a year ago I warned OFC that if this Global Warming, now called Climate change because there is no proof of warming that it would cause an economic disaster. Any Turd Ball with any common sense know people will take advantage. Oil has sky rocked, but there seems to be all of a sudden no shortage. There is supposedly a food shortage but certainly what we eat has sky rocketed. Farmers are producing ethanol instead of food, and every bloody thing that keeps us going has gone up. Electricity and Heating. Then you have that Creep from out East that wants to put a carbon tax on the very things that has already sky Rocketed. As far as Kyoto is concerned why in the Hell should we suffer and pay even more when obviously China, USA, India, and every other country in the World obviously is polluting my air. So tell me, why should my kids eat less because of a bunch of Paranoid, one tracked, mindless Zombies. Id love to slap these paranoid freaks like prune. If you really care and want to make a difference, go hug a Polar Bear, because I don't need ya. My Opinion on this Green shift that has all of a sudden has hit most of ya. By the way, if we have some of the Arctic melt, I don't give a dam because I don't live up there. As far as Polar Bears, who cares. There is always the zoo.
