  1. Pink head and white body hands down. 1/16oz - 1/4oz depending on the conditions, depth and structure. That's for gamefish.
  2. The whole process is very tiring and past the point of being interesting. Bettman trying to save the owners from themselves, players wanting the owners to throw bags of money at them. None willing to move an inch either way.
  3. Have seen it on largemouths and I think that I head it comes and goes.
  4. Young guys have to keep a clean driving record or they are going to pay. The bigger the centre the bigger the rate. My son got into some issues with points and he was paying over $800 a month (would have been $1200/month in Maple), but had to pay it and keep his record clean if he wanted to see it go down. It is down to about $450 a month and he jumped for joy when he saw the renewal come in. It took a couple of years, but I think it is sinking in. My wife and I had to sign an affidavit along with him saying that he wouldn't be driving our vehicles or our insurance was going to go up while he lived with us. I was tough on him, but he got through it and the insurance guys made some money. Can't see it getting any better for young drivers in the future and not really sure how youngins are going to be able to afford to drive their own vehicle.
  5. Neil Young with Crazy Horse is by far his best shows. You're one of the lucky ones. Nice painting.
  6. That's a real beauty!
  7. No kidding. I have more stuff that I don't use than stuff that I use.
  8. It reminds me of a time I was in a cruise boat with a bunch of people and the operator decided to pull a 90 degree turn at high speed without warning. I was sitting down, then on the floor before I knew it. A person riding in the boat has no control once the operator loses control, you're at the mercy of......
  9. Another member!
  10. I think that they are okay for shallow water applications, but tend to be slightly insufficient for deep water apps. Take chris.brock's advice.
  11. They didn't even take the full shoulder cape for a proper mount. Probably just going to use the antlers from the head.
  12. You should be able to access the lake right in Bewdley. I would look for 8' of water.
  13. Hey Captpierre I have lived on the lake for years and usually fish elsewhere in October and November. Ever since the zebra mussels moved in, it has been tougher for me in the fall.
  14. Are you serious about Little Lake?
  15. The trick is to check out the work before you agree to anything. Make sure you see some of the taxidermists finished product. Yes, Advanced is great, but there are others out there that are also good. Advanced probably has a huge stock of molds and can alter one to suit a fish if required. Others tend to order fish blanks from the states and just attach the fins and paint them. Painting a replica is far different than painting a skin mount, that's why you should always see a painted replica before agreeing to purchase. It takes a special talent to bring a white fish blank to life. Check out the Advanced website to start, then go from there.
  16. This is a black bullhead I caught down south a few years back. I think yours is a channel cat.
  17. I treat it well, but I think there was damage on the blade prior to me getting it. I treat it as well or better than my father did. Thanks for the input by everyone, I will contact the museum.
  18. Thanks, that's a great site.
  19. Can't figure out how to put multiple pics in one post. Can anyone help?
  20. Does anyone know what this might be worth? My father picked it up at the end of the war when he was policing civilians who were not to be carrying weapons. Interesting piece.
  21. You could do it with the proper tools. I have cleaned my own for the last 26 years; however, from the roof. The only thing that I can think of is that my chimney cap needs cleaning at least a couple of times a year and I also have to do that from the roof. Probably because I burn my stove low at this time of the year. I also don't have a brick chimney, it's a stainless steel one that is straight up.
  22. Doubt they will ever be able to pay the fine though.
  23. I could accept an early C & R, but this summer I saw more than usual being kept to replace the lack of success with walleye. People love to eat fish and if the walleye aren't there in numbers they will switch their target, which is well within their rights. It just really concerns me to extend the season earlier.
  24. This is the third time I have come into this thread to say something only to delete what I wrote. I will just ask, do we really need an extra week if there is any chance it will jeopardize another population of fish, especially in the Kawarthas? Why mess with it? Yes the bass are booming right now, but that can change quickly. Ten years ago the walleye were booming, I can't say that about them now. (See very few small fish now)
