  1. Catch a WR muskie and I'd let the highest bidder dictate what I caught it on.
  2. skoda...
  3. lighter fluid possibly.
  4. spledirriffic.
  5. you can watch your tiny jig go up & down in 80' of water easily with the eagle fishmark 320. i'm not sure how much more you need. we use it in the spring for walleye too. it's not colour but i don't really think you need colour, my 0.02c. bps had them on sale for $200 not too long ago i believe.
  6. don't be afraid of going to 50# power pro on the curado. that is what I use, it's my bass/pike setup. it's the same diameter as 12# mono. for the muskie rods, 80 or 100#.
  7. if you're looking for a .ca , CIRA is the Canadian Internet Registration Authority. However, you still go through a registrar to purchase your domain.
  8. well there ya go.. we seem to agree on one thing. it's bugs. time to declare a jihad on them...fun for the whole family. be very thorough.. get in the tight spots, under leaves, where the leaves meet the stem etc.
  9. whatever is in your cooler.
  10. found 'em mealybugs they look sorta like this http://www.thegardenhelper.com/mealybug.html
  11. i forget their name, but that looks like a bug infestation. if i am right you might notice the white fluffy things moving once in a while. they also leave a sticky residue on leaves. separate the affected plant from the others immediately. the cotton substance is where they hatch. the white spots on individual leaves are the bugs themselves. ive never seen it that bad, but i did 'cure' one plant i had by swabbing the leaves with rubbing alcohol solution (50/50 w/h20). i had to repeat several times as they came back. either clean it or get rid of the plant.
  12. some years, first week in july.. depends how quick the water warms
  13. for sure check out that Ovechkin kid.. he might get you hooked on the Caps again.
  14. the revos are an excellent choice for year round suv/light truck use. possibly the best tires on the market and the price tag reflects that. we are discussing 14" civic bicycle tires here though!
  15. first rule of fight club......
  16. Electrical tape over the idiot light does wonders. Or just yank the bulb. I can't believe people need a sensor to tell them the air presure is low.
  17. perfect. kumho is one brand that sells inexpensive summer tires that are pretty good which i've had good luck with. you probably don't need a v or z rated tire, but if you choose to go that route keep in mind they are a softer compound.. while offering great handling characteristics, they can wear quicker than harder compounds. get yourself a cheap 2nd set of steelies and stick your snow tires on them.
  18. my 2 cents is forget no-season tires and buy a set of snow tires and a set of summer only tires - assuming this is for a passenger car.
  19. As of Jan 31st/2008 you need proof of (cdn) citizenship (ie. passport, birth cert or canadian citizenship card) and valid photo ID (ie. driver's license) to cross by land or sea. Passports are not (yet) required, only by air. They are being lenient to a degree.. I am sure it depends on the mood of the border guards.
  20. i use a mix of 80 and 100 for casting. same for trolling.
  21. we encourage discussion of tiller vs console, dill and gaffs, separate off-topic forum, oos fish pics, etc.
  22. i'm happy with mine. bought it used a couple of years ago. power steering pump went on me - easy fix, that's it. the straight six is a simple time tested motor, it'll last a long time and it's easy to work on if you have to. gas mileage is relative to what you're used to driving. i don't find it all that bad. wife/gf may complain about the rough ride but it's a truck. it's been a useful vehicle; tows a 17' lund and 4x4 goes through anything.
  23. ice is near it's thickest point right now and as good as it has been all year. no worries. ice-out is a few weeks away. :bigthumb:
  24. c3 is just fine. i've never tried a pete maina reel but they are righty only - i'm a lefthander myself.
  25. don't skimp on a baitcast reel. you can get away buying cheap spinning but doing so on a baitcaster will lead to nothing but frustration and in the end, purchasing two reels.
