  1. Muskie? I may have a few pics of those elusive critters kicking around... LOL http://ontariofishingcommunity.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=73167&hl=%2B1000th+%2Bpost
  2. Oh man that makes me jealous! Can't wait to get out on some open water. Nice bows too.
  3. Wow, it looks awesome Mike! In 2004, I was just getting into muskie fishing and caught my first good one - a 45". Being a newbie, I thought it was the fish of a lifetime and had a replica done at Advanced too... well I have beat 45" a number of times since then LOL but am still happy that I had it made, it looks exactly as good today as the day I took it home. I probably won't have another made until I push well into the 50" range... Andrew had his 55" LOTW giant done there as well, with an amazing background of driftwood and rock... looks incredible. Their work is second to none, and anyone considering getting a mount should visit their studio/workshop first. I saw their work at a fishing show, and decided then and there that if I ever had a replica made, it would be by them. 206 - replicas often are far more expensive than having the actual fish stuffed, but there are a number of benefits to doing so. A replica will not shrink or discolour as natural oils etc. come out of the fish. If you were ever to damage it, they can repaint or repair it. And most importantly, the fish can be released alive to be caught again - all they need to make a replica is a picture(s) and measurements.
  4. Yup scratch that... the game I saw was a replay of an earlier game this year LOL... they are not doing so well to start this one!!!
  5. 4 games into a 5 game road trip and the Leafs have captured 6 out of a possible 8 points including wins in Anaheim and LA - breaking the Kings 8 game winning streak Reimer steps in after Bernier tweaks his knee and leads them to a win in LA and then a brilliant 1 goal on 50 shot win last night in Washington I'd say things are looking just fine!
  6. Joey let us know on Tuesday if you need more votes and I will get all the friends and family to do it!
  7. Nicely done boys! Never caught a ling, on the bucket list.
  8. OK, I have been craving to get out on open water - but not like that!
  9. WOW Cheek pouches like pancakes LOL Not that I would eat them... the mount would look funny
  10. The good thing about the Humminbird brand battery at LeBaron is that it is a gel cell, and also the charger is included... I'm guessing you probably already have one though. As others have mentioned, get a 9aH instead of a 7Ah if you can... depending on the power draw of your unit, it may be key to fishing a full day. Have you tried asking at Canadian Tire if they will price match? Pete
  11. Great choice, the Liberty I had was good... Your GC will be even better!
  12. X2 on the magic eraser... Cork looks like new afterwards.
  13. If I was in your situation, I would go 4x4. My boat package weighs around 1000lbs, and on most ramps and in most situations is fine, but there have been a few times that I barely was able to get the boat out with my FWD Ford Escape. I used to drive a Jeep, it was a great tow vehicle.
  14. Bah, an inferior product. Yours is cross-drilled for more speed... boogidy boogidy boogidy LOL
  15. Welcome to the board, O mightiest of hair and beard! Looking forward to reading about your adventures.
  16. Roy - I am guessing that for the 3 trips that I put up, the guests can give the donations to me and I will transfer it to Elise? Or should they transfer it straight to her? Thanks Pete
  17. Excellent collection of fish! Well done.
  18. Nice to meet everyone at the Fishing for Tyler event yesterday!

      Great windy day to be out Pete. Next time were out,fish 5 miles away will ya. Your X5 screwed up my X4. Forgot to tell ya about that.LOL

  19. That's a pretty good price... I usually take an XL, so we will see what they have... I know Cabelas usually has their gore-tex rainsuits on sale too a couple times a year, and I have been told they are even better than the BPS ones. Anyone have any info on a date? thanks Pete
  20. Very creative video - loved the hooksets and psychadelic laker thrashes set to the music!
  21. How much is the pro qualifier suit going for during the sale? I may go check it out. Pete
