Awesome Lew

 

Ryan will get back to you shortly, I believe he is away until tomorrow

I give Ryan a heads up for Lew and he should be home tonight some time Thanks for the donation Lew thats awesome

this is definately NOT the proper way to fix it but I was in a pinch and used hot glue and some clear nail polish to make it look finished and that was 3 years ago and it's still on there the nail polish was dollar store stuff to I would use speil's method first but if your stuck the hot glue will work did for me anyways

Great idea, Shawn! Not sure what time we are "rolling" in yet...see when I can "kick" the youngsters out of bed They're getting to that age where they want to always stay up late and sleep half the day!

Shooting for early if possible.

So there in their mid thirties LOL if it wasn't for that 4 letter word work I would do the same thing .See ya on saturday

Yeah, the launch and dock could be interesting. There are a couple other "mini-docks" along the shore that we can hopefully use if need be?

I am going early and will take my boat over to the front docks there's a big area between the docks that is all sand & clay that we can beach a bunch of boats because there isn't enough room at the launch for us all to hang around and I think it would be a good spot to get a pic of this great bunch of people.

As I am having tranny trouble with my tow vehicle, I am requesting a pull out in advance. Highway pulling seems to be fine, but the van cannot get out of a ramp.

Apparently it is around $2500 to get it rebuilt. I am hoping that the drivetrain warrentee will cover that repair.

That's to bad, I'm sure Bonin could launch your boat for ya though

Skinny just go back in one of the shaded areas and go swimming waters several degrees cooler back there and the beach umbrella is already in my boat can't wait till saturday.

yepp can't wait! been prepping everything - poped by the park this weekend and went over the details with them! They usually charge a little over $50.00 for the area we're going to be using but they're waiving the fee for us! Big thanks to the LPRCA for everything!!!!

Sweet they are great people there even the coordinators and big wigs are great people.

go with the Lund

It's official, we have more than 3 times as many people as last year

 

 

WOW this is gonna be awesome

the troll alone one's are like $10 .

yep right around 4lbs nice bucket

Bring your bathing suits people!! Six days too go!

I will have to put the spot lock to the test and hit the anchor button and go for a swim

Saw on the TV an hour ago that a boat apparently capsized at Cherry Beach in Toronto and they were searching the waters for the occupant.

must be seperate incedents Lew one's Erie state side and ones Lake O .there's a 15' kill switch teather I know alot of the trollers use them out of Pt Burwell

You guys have a great time!!!! Hopefully next year I can offer something to sweeten the pot.

You just worry about getting Jen better we have tonnes of support this year and next years a long time from now ,This should be a great day for fishing on DC I can't wait to see some of the pigs that get caught someones going home with a new PB

Nice bucket

I see many people are saying the trilene xl is the best for spinning reels so I think ill go for that because I more of a top water fish I use mainly hula poppers top water lures and shallow water lures but i also fish for perch and smaller fish and I think braid would be unnecessary for that kind of fishing

feeling bites is always necessary, if your fishing for perch you can go down to a 8-10lb braid and 4-6lb flouro and you will feel it whan a perch farts near your bait there is a reason for any set up and using just trilene mono exclusively will catch you fish but don't we all want to catch MORE fish

Cudz thats exactly what I'm talking about I put enough for a rod lenth as a leader so I don't have to re tie the back to back uni all the time.

Unfortunately leader are nessasary when drop shoting with braided line unless you want to spool straight floro which is more $$$ than braid and if you tie a good not its plenty strong enough to handle any bass if you feel you have to use trilene then have at it.it is good for top water and cranks because it stretches. BTW I fish erie a lot and is supper clear so floro gives me more confidence in my presentation which = more fish weather or not it actually help doesn't matter as long as they get to the boat.

Most pros now a days are using nanofil Trilene and not braid because its to heavy and fish can see it.

Why not order a spool of nanofil and let us know how it works .I use braid on all my rods and run a floro leader when needed check out the knot tying sites and practice a few braid is great and easy to use once ya get the hang of it. I used to use a improved clinch knot on braid but a polamar knot is really easy and strong.I will definately be trying this nanofil stuff though sound cool .

I don't know about port maitland but they are on fire in pt burwell right now lots of guys doing really well but the eye's are way out there in like 65-68FOW some guys are getting them in closer but no numbers all the double digit catches I have heard are way out. Origanal raps on dipsies and spoons in ugly colors most body baits will work to you just need to get them down to the fish. Oh and the steelhead will hit all the baits ya throw for eye's to.

I know nothing about fly fishing, but I do well in the Thames with gulp minnows so mabye try some minnow patterns and have some fun with some hard fighting river smallies till ya find some salmonoides which are around but I have yet to catch one only been a witness a few times lots of smallies though and they are a blast in the river .

To continue the thoguhts on Sta-bil, do you guys put it in with each tank or when is everyone adding Sta-bil? I tend to only use it when winterizing but am now just wondering if I should be putting it in on a more regular basis? I usually have the boat out at least once a week so I'm just wondering what everyone's thoughts are?

 

Thanks

I would use sta-bil marine ethanol treatment (the blue/blackish stuff) not the red for storing it .Adds pennies to the tank and I can't see it hurting anything even if it's not really doing much it's better than having a dead engine while on the water.

Jewel of the day today.. Oncologist coming in just to tickle her toes ! Says to her "so when do you want me to schedule your next chemo" and Jen says "NEVER". He says "that works for me"!

I have used it quite a bit now 65lb,40,30,20lb I have noticed with the 20 it wraps on the tip but I just point the tip at the water and shake it and it's off no problem with breakage or bleeding so far I like this braid better than anything else I have tried
