Some great 'eye's there!! How many had "bladdermouth" from being brought up from 45' ??

Little silver "knob" on the side adjusts spool clearance. Counterclockwise.. loosens.. clockwise tightens.

I store the boat inside and still remove the Lowrance units and store in my heated shop.

Aren't they open all year at Mike's anyhow?? They are in Ontario from Liskeard North.

Sure they do and I bet there's even pictures!!

Thanks Jim.. was one of those iffy looking days up here.. but no wind and had my last customer drop his airplane off today at noon. That last eye looks like it's trying to swim up stream to get away from the knife...

That's available tooooo.

It's the other white meat...

So which councillors brother owns a Marina elsewhere??

Amazing what you can get with salmon snagging gear...

No Rickster... those are disposable brain cells....

senko... isn't that 5 in Spanish??

I'm sure he'll appreciate if you buy something toooo TJ ! lol He had some nice tackle in there when I went in to say goodbye in late September.

Email from Jim! So if you depend on Jim for winter supplies, you'll have to shop short of town at Gramps I guess.

Your pappy never tell you to shop local ??

Yep an outragious $30 each per night...

Merlands... people is staying there?? Dano, Terry, Lloyd and I will be in a motel in Deseronto. Can't remember the name... and lost the free pen ! lol

Not in the least in the context that I wrote it Dara. Sure there are those that have no choice in the matter... but as I wrote many have "learned" how to use the system.. and many of these learned from their parents.. and their parents parents. I could list dozens of families that went generation after generation... that never had to leave home to "earn" a living whether it was Welfare or Mothers allowance. They watched their parents milk it and realized it was a pretty darn good system. Now that was back in the day that the mother's allowance inspectors use to come around and if they even found a man's clothes in a closet the gal was cut off.. today that's against their rights. Unemployment.. I won't even get into how many we hired only to find out that they needed just one more weeks work to qualify for a "year off" and come the following Monday we'd never see them again.

Gee I'm close Twocoda.... I hit troll control for 4 to 5 MPH for Musky.. burn is 0.6 GPH on my 275 Verado. So a ten hour day on the water = 6 gallons... 80 gallon tank is 13 days... Can I bring a reserve can to get that extra 3 days?? lol On the kicker... heck we'd be out for a month....

Video could be anything... could be two identical old motors even with nothing new built yet. Different prop.. throttle stop installed on the "slow" boat.. different trim/cav plate position.. you name it. Video proves nothing.. absolutely nothing.

Does it have a Marshmellow window?

Last one looks like he's trying to sneak away... kinda like Art dodging paint balls...

Yep... that is part of the problem in our fine country... many have learned that they can live comfortably just staying at home and waiting for the welfare/mother's allowance/poggy cheques to appear thru the door. Why exert yourself if you don't need to... We use to joke that it was the worst hereditary disease in Smiths Falls..

There was one at the Beckers/Esso on William St in Midland. Not sure if it's still there or not..
