I baged up the spotted fillets on there own just in case this means they are no good

ok hey be very very carefull doing the stashing . as long as he smokes them here he will be ok .If he gets caught taking them over the boarder the fine is 500.00 per cigar no matter how big. I know this because I was going to take some down to the states for a friend I was going down for the day and had 3 boxes of cigars one box had a guys address on it as I was going gift them to guys that had helped me out (us drop address and website building) I had no ida there was such big fines till they wanted to fine me for the ones I had they let me take them back to canada and stash them till i returned

I had heard of another pond not to far away that is supose to have lots of BASS in it. Well I got there put the tnner in and started to scout around. lots of lily pads,and the water was muddy looking (brown). I tossed a frog about 5 or 6 times then changed to a brown worm with yellow tip. the place is called little lake. i was thinking it might be a bit less fished just got to figure out what to use in it it was 230 -330 when I was out there and a bit of wind . had my little girl with me so couldn't get too serious she just wanted a boat ride
-

-
the cauking tube full was under $13.00 now the other thing I would like to do is figure out a way to move it over the rocks at the launch area I lauch from out of my truck so the bottom gets draged a fair bit over rocks and now that i have some paint on the bottom of the boat I can see what area is getting the most damage might have to rig up a dolly or something that I can roll the front into the water then take the wheels off once in water
-
as some have read my new to me tinner leaked after filling it up in the front with water I found it to be the keel rib it appeared the sealer that was used had gone hard and was allowing it to leak after asking here surfing the net and e-mailing shops I decided to go at it myself . the one place i talked to JandJ almost instantly said it's and old Springbok (think that is spelled right) and I remember once seeing a faint name under the paint on it so here is what I did sorry no pictures of the process 1. flipped boat over and with course wire wheel removed and buffed the seams that were leaking 2.once all cleaned and buffed I wiped it all down and dried the area with Lacquer thinners 3 went to Nappa bought a tube of windshield urethane sealer (this is the the stuff hold windshields in cars now) I think I can get a pic of the tube 3a. put down a tape line so i would have nice smooth edge when done 4. applied a bead to the seam of boat 5. smoothed out the bead while pushing into seam then let it dry (about 2 hr ) then got out the tremclad black and painted over the center rib 6. I then put the boat back in the truck with nose way high so I could get under and in the front of the boat there is a seam with about a 3/8 gap and that was where the water would enter so i polished up that area a bit and pumped urethane into it to create a plug like item job was all done by 5pm and at 7 pm i drove over to the ponds to test her out no leaks now i can start to have some fun with this thing
-
hey there which pond were you in as I was down there trying out my tnner i was in the north pond I was solo and the top part of the boat is painted red maybe we could hook up sometime i could use some lessons or better ways to fish for bass
-
ok I'm close to brantford or woodstock Ont but towards lake eire and i'm looking for a sealer called GLUVIT. I have found a place in kingston but would like to try the repair very soon as my time for fishing is runing out (back to school)
-
i'm not so sure it's the rivet that are leaking like I said it apears the sealer has gone very hard
-
no this wasn't the one that was supose to be the great deal but it wasn't a bad deal yet after the boat dried from my trip it was still in the back of my truck with the front hanging out so I started to fill the boat up to look for leaks. I found them i'm guessing that the caulking on the center rib has dried up because as you add water the more it leaks but seems it's not at a rivit location but inbetween them So next question is how do I reseal this looking for ideas and options

ok so got up at 6am and headed to Waterford ponds to try out the boat and do some fishing I get there and have to wait for others to get in the water my turn I get un loaded and try to get going but we have some wind and i'm getting blown around a bit the old trolling motor that came with the boat isn't enough and looks like there is water at bback of boat. um should bail that. hey I know open up the orange thing I bought that has all the saftey stuff in it to bail ok bailed . hmmmmm wounder if it's the plug in the boat guy said it was new. back to sore and drag the boat to shore to check it's loose I tighten it and try to head out again . wind has gone and I'm getting some place things settle down I start to get it figured out and darn water still in boat bail start fishing and bail every once and while it leaks but you can bail it i also think it only leaks when sitting not when moving so how do you check for leaks or find leaks when it's at home was still good day got 2 bass in the boat and missed a bunch either i was going to fast or not paying attention
-
