  1. There had been a dirty little bait ban to try to stop the spread of VHS (no not the Punky old video cassette), but I'm not sure if that was enforced/put into play. If you aren't allowed to transport live forage fish, then what's the use of selling forage fish? Transporting exotic invasives (gobies etc) live is a no go.. I can still remember the days where live crayfish were sold at tackle shops before the spread of those aggressive rusty gumbos.
  2. I understand paying a bit more for hornyhead chub as they last forever....but not $3. Why don't you think about fishing somewhere with less fish action, like Mimico creek?! That way, you only hafta buy one, and it'll last you the whole trip!!!!!
  3. Jeremy Jeremy Jeremy. Shoulda bought the popup clam 2000 or trekker max lololololololol! I decided to rip in now instead! Lol buy a small homemade utility trailer and slap on a dirty hitch to that garbage-can, then u can bring any toy you want!
  4. Lol I love it when marketplace does their undercover stuff...it's funny/scary If u find a good mechanic close to me who will work on a hybrid and a hemi at the same time let me know lol Good luck
  5. X2 for the baits. Sadly, I come across female browns that were gutted for their eggs and carcasses left many times. Makes me angry.
  6. I wanted to try Arrowhead but the websites for Parks Ontario are pretty confusing and I couldn't garentee that it was open. So my cousin and I went to the pinery. First day I hooked into a really nice Pike (probably around 5 pounds) and then the fishing died off. Second day the only hit either of us had was I pulled in a jumbo perch off of drop shotting a berkley power minnow. It was still a fun weekend complete with rip roring fires, the first snow of the year and Pumpkin Ale. But now its reeeallly getting me in the mood for ice fishing.
  7. Yup to everything ah long said. Probably wont have the longevity as the lx-5 unit either IMO with the screen vs traditional bulbs. I'm not hating on the unit, its great. I just feel the lx-5 (and most high end traditional units) are lag free readings even in super cold (if used properly and everything is functioning well) provide incredible target seperation with great battery life, and awesome features including zoom throughtout the whole water column. I love Marcum LX-5 unit, (currently want to trade for an fl-22 ONLY for ultra shallow water purposes). This unit is built to last a VERY VERY long time without fail. That saying, nothing is without problems. Some people get lemons.
  8. A staples sign for that matter.. Powers been out since 1:00 where I am . I m staying by my aquariums side to manually aerate these babies.
  9. You know I have that exact energizer I bought from Wally mart, in 2008, and it still works like a charm (outlasted my deka's!). Anybody know of a place which will give me cash for about 5 crapped out boat batteries?....I know u get core on trade in, but I just need to rid of the batteries. Anyways, it hurts to see that in the press, I assume it let you down when you needed it most!
  10. Lol I didn't say how it broke? New or used, I am looking for a center that will cost less vs sending it to croix...I've never had a breakage, and like croix, but with shimano/loomis I have broken (rod and my fault) neither cost me a dime to ship, and no hassle. But anyhow, I am looking for the cheapest way
  11. Cool. I wonder if there's a difference between the two?..I Like dealing with angling specialties , wasn't certain they dealt with returns
  12. Thanks guys. I live in etobicoke parklawn and lakeshore . As for warranty, they are supposed to have lifetime?..
  13. Hello, So I broke the tip on my avid, and was wondering if there was anywhere in specific would be a great place who will ship it out for me etc and charge a normal rate ? The st croix website looks like it'll be as expensive as buying a new avid almost ..... So anybody try jbs fishing depot, or angling specialties or???? Thanks!
  14. Fl-20 pro/super pack tri beam. If you use in boat, fl-18 bottom lock. Lx-5 marcum unit you can lock ducer in any part of water column. I hope this won't be a marcum vs vex debate
  15. Well, I went out for a couple hours because I had been in the area with a buddy. The winds were HOWLING and seemed as though we got there right when the winds and clouds rolled in. Long story short, fishing wasnt very good (10 perch, all 6 inches lol). BUT to the most important part: ICE!!!!!!!!!! There was a solid 5-8 inches around Stephensons point, and Port Perry towns boatlaunch same amount. Ice seemed a little thicker as we went out deeper. So for those of you itching to hit the ice, shes there in Scugog, and its safe!

  17. I have a one piece endurance class Salus suit. A lot of movement in it, quality feel.....I wouldn't trade it for any. It's great for when I am casting early/late season in the boat also.
  18. Wireworm or red Berkeley honey worm
  19. Hey guy, I have the navionics app for my iphone, but I was wondering if anybody can steer me in the right direction in getting this program in a weatherproof handhelp gps unit (I hate the thought of using my iphone out on the ice). Or, is there anything which you guys could recommend which would be equivalent to a navionics program>?? I'm interested in using the unit for scopeing out ice fishing spots ahead of time, but also want to use it in the summer to locate the drop offs/rocks etc. Thanks!
  20. Wet a line for maybe an hour...nothing worth talking about. Damn theres a lot of weeds down there......and a ton of gobies. Didnt hook into that quillback I was hoping for...
  21. LOL I woulda called you instead of posting this if you HAD a cell phone number lol I'm going on a "romantic" 1 day getaway with the lady, which I may be able to slide in a couple hours of fishing if I'm lucky....
