  1. i'll probably get it first cast…like your old fishing rod
  2. mine started first pull too….then i took it to a 'mechanic'
  3. I'm glad you make that point Bruce. This post was beginning to remind me of an old Monty Python sketch. As a History graduate one thing I remember was a lecture about reactionary historians and the tendency to romanticize the past. Just saying. here is the sketch i was reminded of………...
  4. Hi all, someone just posted this on an ice fishing forum i frequent………..I WANT! http://www.cnn.com/2013/11/06/tech/innovation/underwater-drones/index.html?hpt=hp_bn5
  5. Me too Brian….use #22 when river fishing in France and England….cant even see the hook let alone the eye.
  6. Ok…thats why i'm confused. The guy at Basspro said the opposite for the item i posted a link to….and a size 3 hook by your suggestion would be huge for a sabiki lure.
  7. Lol…thanks guys…so the people on Basspro site say size 3 is smallest, according to you guys…one is saying bigger number smaller hook, one is saying smaller number smaller hook.
  8. Hi all, Wanting to get some of these. Anyone know what sizes the hooks in this link below are…..is the 3 the smallest or the 8? I assume these are USA sizes and are those the same as canadian? http://www.basspro.com/Offshore-Angler-Green-Ultraskin-Sabiki-Rigs-with-Fluorocarbon-Leader/product/53204/?cmCat=CROSSSELL_PRODUCT thanks in advance.
  9. Awesome time….great report…what its all about really.
  10. thats what i mean….one day…someone will dig it/frack it/drill it off of or out of the ground if its there, Cliffs will be back when it starts if there is money to be made.
  11. this was when Jack was almost 2 years old…. sharing jokes with the boys, jigging for 'eyes.
  12. Green Eggs and Ham.
  13. My brother-in-laws place at Half Moon Bay, its in the St.Phillip's area on the east side of the island.
  14. you guys are too funny
  15. i thought long and hard about getting one of those. They are not 'Lite" at all, and as someone else mentioned……a bit dull and slow…but hey…my neighbour loves his and towed my sorry butt off the ice when my sled went KABOOM. What terrain and use mostly? The machine will have warranty and sitting there won't harm it.
  16. now there's an idea! Live podcasts!
  17. This is really cool I didn't realize I had speech to text on my computer .
  18. not again!
  19. Hi all. Just wondering what you guys who fish while wading use to carry your tackle. I am wanting a vest type arrangement that sits high on your chest so you can be at least waste deep. Will need to hold a couple of 4"x2" clam style tackle boxes, and an assortment….possibly unto 15 hard baits, pliers/line/wire traces etc…etc. Needs to be lightweight…or at least not heavy material as it will be roasting hot where i am using it…..any suggestions would give me a starting point for a targeted online search. Thanks.
  20. set your speed, even use cruise control if need be, employ enhanced auto pilot and aim at desired heading, if you feel more comfortable using the foot pedal you can use it in conjunction with remote( you can't do that right out of the box with a PD)., but at those settings unless your shoreline is the worst rock hazard/zigzag you won't need more than a quick press of a button to change course (less than a second) and if it is…well use the foot pedal for the first run….while doing this follow instructions to start and stop recording a track and bingo…there ya go. I would say though that just using the settings above, and the ability to use spot lock at any given time means i never use the foot pedal anymore, and i can move about the boat at will, chew gum and pat my head at the same time, fish and make homemade perogies on the middle bench seat while holding a conversation in chinese mandarin, at night and still be slamming fish! The new I-pilot i hear you don't even need to do that,if you have a hummingbird fish finder it will follow contours on your map chip right away……NOW THATS CHEATING!!!!! LOVE IT!!!
  21. money talks…if Cliffs thinks it can make a profit…they will be back, sounds to me like blackmail…play our way or we leave. Sucks for the families who lose their jobs….my family has suffered this twice this year…..but i agree with Chad.
  22. AWESOME DAN. i am off work till January 5th…so really most days between 8am and 3:30pm works for me.
  23. Thanks RAF. lol…good one Rob.
