Most are found in the northern portion of the province how true this is i don't know i have just an average folding map Randy manically Ontario easy finder lost count after 100 lakes.

  14. Hey guys i decided to take on my first project of building a rod from an 8wt 9ft fly rod. i would like to turn it into a spinning rod. 2 question 1) how do i remove the reel seat from the blank (factory glued) without damaging or cutting the reel seat? 2)I also would like to clean the blank before wrapping the guides is there anyway to remove the glue without the use of acetone?(I'm worried that the acetone might damage the blank one way or another.)correct me if I'm wrong. thanks in advance shadowlfy

  20. Hey guys i have to buy a new camera , my casio exilim fought hard for year and 3 months before breaking, it's the lens that got damaged. I need a digital camera that is suitable for fishing and hunting not shooting professional weddings here. i was looking at some of the shockproof cameras seems interesting but they are expensive. what do you guys use and how guys like it? also i don't see the need to spend more than $100 as it will get used and abused on a daily basics but if it's really worth it I'll spend extra 50$ on a digital camera.
  21. sorry irishfield, i buy at petrol Canada or Esso and it's a 2000 ford focus zx3 hatchback with 330K funny about the gas i changed the O2 sensor 3 weeks ago ran the car with high octane fuel, the check engine went away, after 1 week of changing the sensor filled up the car with regular drove about half of tank, took it for drive to Burlington and check engine came on. damn i can't afford to fill up on high octane there must be another problem causing it, whats wrong with the shell gas?
  22. thanks for all the replies and suggestions guys, as for the fact of free scanning i haven't seen that around , called up 3 places that i know and min price was $40, along side a good multimeter i want to invest in a car scanner and wrench the problems my self, some jobs i can take care off and some jobs are left for the mechanic, i agree with trusting your mechanic takes you a long way, but most of the time it's not the mechanic i trust that ends up working on it. once again thanks for replies guys,
  23. Hey guys I'm having problem with my car, the check engine light keeps popping up after fixing what was diagnosed O2 sensor however Im looking to buy my own OBD reader (car scanner) with so many brands out there don't know what to buy that's decent enough and won't break the bank. not looking to spend $200 i know a $100 scanner wont' do what a $8000 snap on scanner does. I see allot on kijiji for $40 some for $80 what should i look for when buying one and what to avoid (models or brands)? thanks in advanced
