there is a lot more involved then just catching, keep in mind these need to go live to be grown on farms on the other side of the planet a lot of money from the fishermen license holder goes into the infrastructure to keep them alive until the season ends and the buyers purchase think of a large scale salt water aquarium set up and as of late they have had to hire 24hr on site security to watch their buildings where they tank the elvers. its an unnecessary situation here that the Feds need to deal with properly

Right form the get go I will say I have no skin is this game other then friends that are legitimately part of the fishery which is also a livelihood in the community I’m in . Please do your own research on this. because of the value of this fishery for the last while it has turned into the Wild West in terms of the black market end of things people are going to get hurt. the government has not done a thing about this enforcement wise .Nova Scotia has offered wardens to enforce this and the feds are not doing a thing except shut the whole thing down for another year while nothing is done look at it this way you halve just been laid off for another year you don’t get to collect anything because this is an ownership business and expected to recover year to year that is a very simple example to a very complex situation bottom line for me I guess and maybe you is do you support all the legitimate fisher people or not, should the government have the boots on the ground to enforce. The fishery should be open it’s a legitimate lively hood all said and done if you agree to this sign the petition and please pass this on to other fishermen there will be blood here soon it’s that bad!!! https://www.change.org/p/restore-1100-maritime-fishing-jobs-by-opening-the-legal-elver-fishery-in-2024?recruiter=3592750&recruited_by_id=2baed720-205c-0130-da9f-3c764e044346&utm_source=share_petition&utm_campaign=petition_dashboard&utm_medium=copylink cheers Biteme

all i can tell you is this, transom cracks crappy wood pull always in the corners, look for a water line in the bilge means its holding water in the winter or taking water in season, look at the bottom of the motors check the skeg and lower unit for cracks or malformed, take the plug out of the bottom of both motors check the oil if its milky do this after you have had it running and put power to the gear box, bad seals and improper winterization , a compression test is good but you need a baseline number you can run this pretty quick with a cell phone and a serial number, enquire about the current owners winterization process. pull a plug two strokes are pretty reliable if looked after, pull the cowls off the motors and look for excessive hydrocarbon residue on the motor and low spots. and last but no least check every single electrical connection make sure it all works and get a set of bunny ears and run both motors not just for 5 minutes leave it running for at least 15 cycle the gearbox and increase the rpms. dont go in all excited if they see you do all this it gives you wiggle room on price play poker! nothing worse then separating from good money and nothing better then a good day in a reliable boat!!!!!!! Happy Fishing

GIVER!!!!!!!!

NICE FISH!!!

Wooof!!!!

Regs are a good start Not sure if Frank is still in business but Bronte Outdoors on the Lake shore in port credit would be a great place to start. He is a great guy tell him Peter sent you

Princess Auto is a good choice they sell adaptor plates as well

To get the money they get in these tournaments sure get the fast boat lures rods and reels but for electronics just a bottom view with a narrow spread and a gps Im all for watching it then ,evens it out a whole lot and would likely change the field drastically I know guys rigged in this way would have a shot at the big boys toe to toe with impressive results.I know in the local area one morning we put the boots to 3 boats that jetted in from Kingston to 16 mile and they were not happy i have always liked paper charts and a depth sounder. peter

Don’t forget lakers along the shore from the Hammer towards Niagara Falls too

For what ? seriously makes fishing loose it’s mystic it’s almost blasphemy Biteme

Good afternoon All I’ll get right to it Meghan will be going into the QE2 in Halifax Thursday morning for a double bypass. This has been an ongoing battle for a few years and will now be resolved.

This is her email [email protected] If you can hold off writing to her until Thursday afternoon it would be great You guys and girls are great, nice boat! Try to stay in it! BRAVO ZULU TO YOU ALL!!!!!!! Cheers Peter

Last nights butt puckering white knuckle trip down the coast HAFS8185.MP4

We just got in the door from Halifax took almost 6.5 hrs to get back most of the time a 40 km lucky to see over the hood of the car most of it insane when I posted eailer nothing in Halifax about 10km outside and it started and hasn’t stopped i haven’t seen anything like this since the 70s in the Gta blowing like a banshee

Not much different on the coast Lew we’ve had 4 inches of snow once and hardly any sun zero temps I can for sure see the well going dry this year. We shall see cheers peter

Hey I’m not trying to change your mind or tell you what to do or believe I have seen the power and furry of propane first hand controlled and uncontrolled filling little tanks from big tanks is just not my thing personnaly I don’t like liquefied gas(flammable and not) on any given day always wary that’s just me Carry On 🤘

from Transport Canada https://tc.canada.ca/en/dangerous-goods/safety-advisories/risks-refilling-single-use-tc-39m-dot-39-cylinders just because there aren't verified deaths there are lots of reported incidents and you know as well as i do about odds sooner or later you will win the lottery Why take the risk for a few bucks...Seriously!

Same as 90kmh in a 80kmh. Its illegal but people do it. hmmmmmm!🤨

So i did some searching around because there was something fishy about this conversation it is illegal to do this in Canada without proper training now I know saying this will open a can of worms but it is what it is and we all make choices https://propane.ca/safety/handling-transporting-propane-cylinders/#:~:text=It is illegal by Canadian,are being sold in Canada. I'm sure if you were doing this and had an unfortunate circumstance that destroyed some insurable things they would likely not cover your claim amongst other things just looking out for ya!!!

Lew My little Aussie destroys rats the same way not to eat them just for sport, take her to the wharf at night in the summer, amazing to watch cant even see her head move its shaking so fast.

i like to keep it simple UGLY Sticks. Bait and Spin i could never really justify an expensive rod just to step on it crush it in a door all that good stuff. I will go toe to toe with any fancy($$) rod out there and catch just as many fish now reels im not opposed to chucking some money at nothing crazy but i get what i want. Just fish dammit!!
