I thought that was a splake that Chris was holding????? The tail says splake.

I guess that's the best way to look at it if they want that Austin kid. I doubt Babcock thinks the same way though.

Not good news. Bernier seems distracted.

The cost of maintaining these groups and other small social service agencies is much more difficult now than say 15 years ago. The competition for the community dollar is greater now than ever. Crowd fundraising has taken off since social media exploded on to the scene and long term volulnteering has plummeted. International Charity seems to be at the top of the list these days. It's a shame that there isn't government support to keep these buildings going, but I also understand that the point gets lost if there are no veterans to attend the Legion.

Agreed. She is going to make a mess of this and milk it for all she can..

Thanks for sharing guys. I was really tempted to pursue the offer that Chris put out there last week and I'm sorry I didn't. Great scenery, fish and by the look of it, a great time.

The only time I use it is when I have to get across to the other side of the city during rush hour for a meeting. Leaving a few minutes early doesn't cut it with that kind of traffic on the 401.

Don't scare me. I just travelled it last week and am waiting for the bill.

It has it's limitations from my experiences with it, but it works great when it does.

Fans need to stay away if they are unhappy with the changes. Unfortunately, that will probably result in losing a couple of other players in the near future. It's all about the bottom line for business people.

Some of us just might never break that 50" barrier, but look at the season you had. Nice way to close it off.

The riding I live in bleeds blue through and through. The only time a liberal was successful at the provincial level was when they tried to parachute John Tory in here. That was a slap on the hand to our MPP. She's back though.

Saturday night was quite the surprising outcome.

Do Canadians ever revolt?

LMAO, great way to end the week! Thanks for sharing.

You can only run from that lifestyle for so long before it gets you. Added to a long list of others unfortunately. Sad to see such talent lost.

Exactly what Rogers wants. Someone that won't keep asking for money to keep a winning team on he field. I say keep the seats empty if they slide in 2016. Fingers crossed that they can compete for at least the foreseeable future though. They have some quality parts.

This thread is dead. Not much we can do about the liberal practices in politics until the next election. That is, if you don't like them.

This world is crazy!

There are huge lakers in there. That's all I know. Some good ling fishing also from the rumours I hear. Fish off some points that drop into deep water, any rock structure that you know of, they could also be shallow in the winter.

It sounds obvious to me that the kawarthas need to be protected and managed better. This discussion has been going on for years and we still see slow changes. I remember doing spawning site enhancement on Pigeon in the 90's and it is still facing some walleye population issues. Some say they are rebounding; I have not seen this personally. I can say that they do congregate in the winter and large schools could be slaughtered quickly. I run into this when pan fishing in the winter. The health of the lake means different things to different people. Some feel that all the weeds should be removed to make the lake healthier, others see the importance of weeds in a lake. Sounds like most on here want to see improvements and care about the future of the fishery, it's the ones that aren't on here that couldn't give a damn other than filling their limits. Then they move on to the next lake when their success dwindles. Yes, the internet has had an impact.

I have had my Yamaha since the seventies and always like it. There are better ones out there, but this does me fine.

I don't think it would be a good idea to open any kawartha lake for walleye in the winter. I don't believe they can take the pressure. I'm also concerned that some will continue to harvest walleye from Scugog, they do it on the other kawartha lakes even though they aren't open. I think that the crappie have peaked on scugog, so I hope this closure shows some results in the next few years. If it doesn't, who knows what the problem is. I know as anglers we don't like to hear it has to do with harvesting, but from what I saw from some ice anglers, they definitely had an impact on the population. Especially the night anglers. This is from a frustrated kawartha angler so it's just my opinion.

You know you're a very lucky dude, right? The pictures alone, tell the story!

I was always wondering about the delivery charges varying on where you live. It's not like I see a truck driving down the road every day to deliver hydro.
