Titans all the way also. The Kamiks just don't cut it for me in the frigid temps. Just make sure you get a snug fit, which is better for walking.

Yep, I am feeling more and more like moving from the area lately. Those stories are regular if you live on Pigeon Lake, I rarely go out on the weekends anymore because of these examples. However, littering is an issue for everyone to be mindful of. The road I clean up is not a main road and usually only used by locals. I am always disgusted after the road cleanup.

Someone will get him. Another great game of goaltending and a lucky 2 points for the Leafs. Better than a loss, I say.
-
I'm just trying to say that this happens on many roadways, whether it's littering or people walking out on the road while not looking. I see this all the time in Lindsay and would hit someone once a week if I wasn't watching or I'm picking up some kind of garbage. It's the same in most communities. Is it right? No, it's disrespectful. Banning is the easy way out, but they don't mind throwing $27000 at enforcement of the ban. The garbage will just end up somewhere else until all access is banned. See Lake Simcoe as an example of where this can head.

Fishing From The Causeway in Bridgenorth Banned
jimmer replied to Dutch's topic in General Discussion
Shoot I just posted something about this also. Sorry about that. -
I just read an article that says a bylaw was passed that will no longer allow fishing from the causeway in Bridgenorth. Anyone stepping over the guardrail will be charged with trespassing. They will be hiring security to enforce the bylaw and provide education at a cost of $27,000 in the first year. Those that aren't aware of this ongoing issue should know that it has to do with littering. I think the people that passed the bylaw should walk through every ditch in Selwyn Township and see how much garbage is thrown out of cars. Are they going to ban cars from the roads? I just hate to see shore fishing spots lost.https://www.mykawartha.com/news-story/7983427-fishing-banned-along-selwyn-township-s-james-a-gifford-causeway/

Ontario to Increase Ethanol Content in Gasoline

I guess it's one of the easiest things to hit and make it look like they are doing something for the environment. -
Ontario to Increase Ethanol Content in Gasoline
jimmer replied to G.mech's topic in General Discussion
I'm not happy about that. That crap makes a mess of my tank and boat. -
First I heard of this. He could be very funny.
-
They might not even be in Ottawa. I think if it sells the team will be moved.
-
Those ling can be pretty freaky the first time you encounter one. We saw one of our buddies freaking at the site of the ling coming up through the hole and he didn't want to touch it until someone yelled they're good eating. It came out of the hole quickly after that, but still unsure about touching the thing.

Dan mentioned in the post about Simcoe perch fishing that the safety covers in a hut didn't work for a specific person and he went right through up to his neck. I'm sure many of us have some funny and not so funny stories about being on the ice. I remember many years ago heading out with an operator out of Big Bay Point, we were transported to the hut on an open sleigh. One of the guys we were with started into the sauce early and decided to get up to go out for a leak. He proceeded to step into the hole, jump up, run outside and do a face plant breaking his nose. I don't think he remembered any of it. Never good to get inebriated out on the ice or water. Personally, the worst for me was renting a hut, fishing for about an hour, then leaning back for a snooze only to be woken up by a knock on the door to say it was time to head in. Slept the whole day away. Doh

Doughty is going to get someone in trouble by talking openly about some of things he does. I'd say wait and sign him as a free agent if he wants to come here.
-
Sheesh, we live in a screwed up world. That's one scary story Chris, glad it didn't amount to much more than a wicked high.
-
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.
-
Sorry Grimsbylander, you did say that. Okay, they're in a perpetual rebuild, I think they are trying to rebuild around McDavid and like you said, the Leaf team should take notice.
-
Aren't the Oilers still in a rebuild? They still have the ability to be a good team. The same thing can happen to the Leaf team at any time.
-
Shawn and Terra are running the place now.
-
The hardest one to take was the one with under 2 seconds left. LOL Just how it goes sometimes.
-
Edmonton and Montreal are a complete mess and both look like they will miss the playoffs. Yes, it's early to say that but......... It's not fair to dump on Duchene when he was brought in during Ottawa's slide. Not liking the inconsistency with the Leafs either. Where did the goal scoring go???? The league has changed much over the years and we might be talking about other teams crashing in 2 months.

At least you got to see Joe. He's amazing.

Boat away for the winter: full gas tank or empty?
jimmer replied to KawarthaAngler's topic in General Discussion
Does gas without ethanol still need the stabilizer? -
Wow, those are some beautiful and interesting looking fish!
-
They really are a beautiful fish. Thanks for taking the time to put the report together. I can only dream!

No one ever gifts me NHL tickets either!
