Thanks for that Peter.. brought a tear to my eye bud. Now I know why you are the way you are........ and there's nothing wrong with that in my mind as I walk a similar line. Love the "no Grey" and who couldn't love the "Black and Decker Nipple Wrecker". We had three of those.... ..and we live by #7 in this household. Wayne

Exactly Stoty. But consider where you are storing said boat and how much room you have for it. 2 feet could make the difference between getting it in a garage or not.

Thanks Danbo... but if I was after Pike I sure wouldn't be fishing out there in "structureless land".

Haven't fished it.. but the only thing the old lakes of Temagami map shows in it are Brook Trout.

Yes.. in Kemptville...been about 8 years since was there. Good size campsites and dock to use. Suggest pulling out each night and putting boat on campsite... probably have to anyhow. Good weedbed on far side of channel. Hammer handles and bass is what we came up with but didn't work too hard. Should be able to find some pickeral up at the lock overflow and muskie in them weeds.

Krawler marked some good fish on the S/E corner of Beckwith..all the way along the east shore up to the mouring beach in the center... from where we headed home. Also marked some good fish on the shoal point west of the ferry dock.. but nothing interested.

It was 48/49 in Midland Harbour.

Mike the Glastron was never bought to be a GBay boat. I had a 26 foot Searay.. full cabin for Georgian Bay and I put waves over it's windshield! Not spray... the whole roller !

Water is still cold.... only 43F out there. Why would you launch in Penetang to go to Port Severn? Penetang charges to use the ramp.. you can launch for free in Midland and also save 7 miles of travel. HWY 93 thru Midland (past the mall etc).. down the hill and turn RIGHT at the lights onto Vinden St. Follow to lights and turn LEFT onto Sunnyside Drive. Take next right and in around the apartment building they are erecting. Pete Peterson Park. Free to launch...supposed to have sticker to park there.. but don't suspect anyone is checking this early in the season.

What I'm trying to tell you chickenhawk is "Roy and the Mods" have nothing to do with TJ's OFC business. This is OFC... thus nothing needs changing with TJ's clothing line. If they want something seperate for OFC then that's a whole different ball game.

Got out today with my youngest (20) and her boyfriend. We launched out of Midland Harbour around 9:30 this morning and came in about 5:30PM Target was Lakers again and the possible chance of a salmon... but it wasn't to be. Took to the bigger water out around Thunder Beach/Christian Island and trolled and trolled. Flat lines.. gang trolls...deep divers....downriggers down... had two knock offs but no fish. One thing I've gotta say... I was reluctant to go to Electric Downriggers as the manuals where good exercise... but I'll tell ya.. you sure do switch baits more often thru the day to attempt to find the right colour/bait compared to manuals where you leave it on 'till it pops! We marked fish of various sizes all day... ran the spoons and cannon balls right thru them.. nadda. Some nice realestate out that way... I believe this one belongs to the CEO of Kelloggs ceral. Flash back.... thought I was on BOQ for a minute ! LOL PLEASE !! Don't anyone on this forum attempt fishing out here in a 12 or 14 foot boat without full knowledge of wind patterns on the bay. This is the calmest I've ever seen it out here... 2 to 3 foot rollers. On the way back in it appeared flat calm as we tidied up the boat... and then plowed through a couple LONG 6 foot rollers coming in between Beckwith and Giants Tomb. Came home with just enough time to get my 2nd last customer into the air at 7PM. Hopefully I can get the last guy out on Thursday so I can be set free for the summer.

Great stuff Matt ! Good to see a fishing report from you!

If you are going to draw off the joiner strap and one + post for 12Volt applications.. yes.. I would trade battery locations or the feed hook ups once thru each year to keep them on similar cycle counts. You can also use the negative terminal to the trolling motor and the strap between the two batteries for positive to get your 12volts...so which ever is easier... swap batteries.. or move where the leads attach a time or two thru the season.

There is nothing needing changing. Ontario Fishing Network is still alive and well..... This is OFC !

That sucks... but stupid was probably the taking the cast off and wrapping in a tensor bandage to go fishing.

UMMM NO ! A/B/BOTH.. just means you have both batteries selected in PARALLEL and you get 12 Volts. If you got 24 out of it you'd fry every component in your boat. Two IDENTICAL 12volt batteries HTH... hooked in series and you've got 24volts. If you want to use them for 12V accessories just take the positive off the same + you have going to the trolling motor and get your "Ground" from the joining strap connection between the two batteries for 12Volts. Even the AGM batteries I bought the other day where only $259 a piece. Batteries for trolling motor only need to be wet cell deep cycles. $125 each give or take $30/per

Na John... they stopped doing Labotomies on Tuesdays a couple years back. I do have a good selection of day passes though.....

You take the Rabbit Lake Road.. Turn Right just North of "Gramps" Bait and Tackle.... that is across the road from Angus Lake.

LOL... kinda what I figured ! You got out.. that's the main thing. It was great day to be on the water... we flogged GBay for 8 hours today too.

Napalm would be my weapon of choice....

Put the 50psi in that is spec'd !

I always slow to a crawl for canoes jat... as generally on Lake Temagami they are being paddled by 20 to 30 year old wimmins in bikinis !

Auction is a mix between reserve and non-reserve. All the Microcraft packages and used boats are NO reserve!

I'd just let it dry out Rick before plugging it in.. and after that it still has a year of warrantee left doesn't it? Always leave the plug out of your boat when not in the lake.
