Hi all, We went for a geocaching road trip yesterday. Just Jack, Mum and myself. My wife and I have both been going through a lot of Bull at work, my wife was actually signed off work and given some meds to cope. We headed out to just relax and it was awesome, the weather was perfect, a bit chilly, but perfect fall day. We drove from Dryden to Ignace stopping at very geocache co-ordinate. We had a pile of fun and laughed a lot, just what was needed. We are so lucky to have our beautiful child, he is a reality check when everything seems so crap…..he won "Best Giggle" award at his graduation ceremony this year……thought I'd share, it might brighten up your day.

Hi all, Finally got round to putting together the footage of a great Lac Seul outing that we took this summer with my son, his grandad, myself and the pup. Great memories and grandad has been boasting to all his buddies about how great a fisherman Jack is, really winding up his buddies down at Erieau about how he out fishes them 3 times a week....lol...with an ice fishing pole!

You are lucky then, everything I have ever bought from HT has fallen apart, the zips and the material on the ice fishing bags go….the cork on their rods falls off, the handles on their ice scoops break…or just fall apart…their reels on the combos are junk and seize up as soon as its below zero…lol…I'm not a fan!

HT stuff is JUNK! avoid if at all possible.

Nice bird mate!

LOLOL…was trying to get my other sled stuck the other year…thank god I have not managed that yet…at 750lbs dry weight would need a helicopter to get it out…probably a Chinook!

LOL

Sounds like a blast. I had people 'scoffing' at sheepshead when I was at Erieau pier. I loved it though…got one that must have been close to 20lbs….they put up an awesome scrap!

Thanks guys, really want snow now, can't wait for family outings on the sleds to the ice shack. It was actually $800….but in mint condition, the windshield even had the blue plastic on still, brand new! The insides look good and there are a few cracks on the hood and a few on the track. Wish I had your skills Dave, I'm sure your restoration will be great, I'm not thinking I want to do anything with this….if it was a house it would be a 'turnkey'. This is a Transporter model. Like I said, gave the wrong impression by saying a few hundred, was actually $800, still a great deal up here, especially on a 250 as they are very popular for kids, and there are lots of kids and lots of snow up here….lol( a few big kids too ) Its an '87 apparently. Still waiting for my friends uncle to dig out the ownership papers. Is there a way you can tell its a '93? I think I remember seeing pictures of your sled in the slush last year Nick…it was either yours or Rod Casters, did not look like fun. The good thing is they are very light, never fun or easy to get out of slush, but better with a light sled I would think….n'est pas? Its going to be interesting what happens this year with Jack and his sleds, he has a 120 Mini Z, but it just felt sluggish even last year, but that could just be me, but by mid winter Jack was trying to jump snow banks on it…..w'ell see how he likes the bigger sled this year. Hope it does last a long time, well if it is an '87 it already has by today's standards. I was really lucky to get it, it actually belonged to my co-worker but I saw it on the local Facebook classified page, I literally saw the add 2 minutes after she reduced the price, called and knocked her down $100 more (friends and co-worker discount)…went and got it the next day. Her uncle who owned it before was a yamaha mechanic apparently, he replaced a bunch of stuff and was completely rebuilt a couple years back, windshield was brand new, looks really tidy inside too. I don't miss my XLT! Chad I think I saw a picture of your brother's last year, rough around the edges but still going…that's what counts, and your posts and peoples reviews of your sled helped me decide to grab this one despite its age . Yamaha motors seem to last a long time, my outboard is also an '87….I put it through hell every year, is getting a bit rough but I change the plugs, fog the engine and thats about all the maintenance it gets each year apart from bottom end oil.

Nice fishes…fall fishing is the best sometimes.

Hi all, Picked this up for a few hundred. Starts first pull, very tidy sled. Perfect for the wife this year and for Jack to graduate from his 120cc next year. I think I might be using this little gem too, as it fits into the bed of my GMC Canyon….I can throw it in and out by myself without a snowbank!

Thanks for that Dozer, I know I'm not the only one now

LOL Drew...is that what I actually say? I was excitable.....lol.

I really like the little gun, a buddy gave it to me. It can take a clip but they are hard to come by and mine is missing. It is simple but effective, just like my logic in most instances....lol.

There was frost on the car in the morning and it was 17C in the late morning, love this time of year....NO BUGS!

Ended up taking the trout next door to be put in a smoker, grouse are gonna be a cassoulet now...basically a mixed meat and sausage stew with beans and wine.

Poor Ralphie, gotta say he's lucky to have such a great Mum! Thanks for the cottage memories Joey, really cool stories.

WTG JT!, Nice pictures.

Hi all, Went out with the pup on Friday morning after getting the kid on the School Bus. Got myself an old Savage Arms .410 and brought it along with me in the hope of shooting a few grouse on the way. No luck on the Grouse. It was kinda cool because the camper you see in the video that is parked upo by the lake was none other than the guy who ran the PAL course, he is a real enthusiast and conservationist and was delighted to see me out enjoying the outdoors with Roloff, we had a good discussion before I headed off. No birds coming in or out, but landed three nice Splake on a #2 Blue Fox spinner. Tried the slip bobber right off the bat but could not get the hook to stay in. Lost a really nice one and saw quite a few follow the bait in. Sorry Chad….lol….more twangy country/folk music!

LOL…..no…just doing what Ive always done for no gian other than my own enjoyment and sharing adventures with y'all, and then someone told me I could make a few shillings doing it without really lifting a finger….just my kind of gig! won't sellout, won't compromise…smash capitalism!!!!! LOL.

It is just thoughts in my grey matter at the moment, thinking about sautee breast in garlic and shallots then add chaterelles, …..dash of cognac or sherry….cream….something like that…then grill trout with a lemon butter and flaked almonds…..

YOU INSPIRED THIS POST GODDAMIT>>>>>LOL LOL...you noticed. Its more to do with what music is available to use on 'monetized' videos on youtube. I finally discovered in May this year, after 8 years of making videos that Youtube will pay me, only catch is I cant choose copyrighted material or they wont pay me, I aint making millions but have made about $700 in 6 months, keeps me in minnows....just! LOL...my neighbour has a $30000 boat, and that little tinny!

Hi all, Shot my first ever birds out by myself using my own gun. Got 3 in all, 1 grouse and 2 spruce hens. They were pretty tame and allowed me to follow them into the bush a fair ways, got really close to all of them. Got some nice splake yesterday so lunch is looking pretty good, got the spruce hens in brine at the moment and a nice wild chanterell sauce to accompany for the ultimate surf and turf! Video has some blood....
