Chong, why can't you get Shaw? I thought we were paying too much foe Bell until I saw what you are paying. We are paying Bell $120.00 for HD TV, Koodo $90.00 for 2 Smart phones, 1 with limited use, $58.00 to Xplornet for Internet. Around 270 all in. 

I never checked, I costs 125$ with Bell for Fibe tv,unlimited internet and home phone.

Sometimes i just can't get over how we are railroaded by these telecommunications giants!

We live in an area where our only realistic option for Television and internet is Bell! I have been subscribing to Expressvu for 13 years since moving here and pay almost $128 per month for a bunch of crap that I never watch.....just so that i could get a package that contains WFN (World Fishing Network). This month, they decide to abandon WFN for something they call the "Sportsman" channel. Unfortunately they dropped a whole lot of the fishing shows I watched, and substituted with a bunch of hunting shows! Nothing against hunting, but it is not my thing!

They don't even have WFN available at any price!!

I could of course download the shows on YouTube, but unfortunately, they limit us to 40GB of internet data for $60.00 per month! That is the maximum I can get (20 GB for $50 + $10 more for the second 20GB)

Third world countries are getting better service for less money than we get in rural Ontario!! It is not like I live in some remote bush area, but right on a major highway!

I am so sick of taking this abuse by these companies. Our Bell Bill for home phone, TV, Internet, and one cell phone is over $340.00 per month! My wife has a cell phone that is on another bell plan.

Sigh.........I need an advil!

It has nothing to do with Bell, here in quebec  both providers (Bell and Videotron) doesn't have WFN anymore. I think it's has to do with the crtc or wfn .

you can get an umbrella base like the one you use on the patio, or get this,

I use that if I'm walleye fishing and pike are heavily in the mix, but for topwaters it would be heavier than flouro and, I'd think, less stretch.

i would use 20lb which would be the same as 30lb fluoro.

what  about this , anyone tried it?

i found this video, what do you think? will doubling the line help ?

Make sure It's not because of a bad knot on your braid. Had a buddy a few years ago blaming his 4th lost frog to pike's. Until I watched him make his knot. Use a Palomar. Most other regular knots will slip especially with bigger braided line.

i'm sure it's not the knot, when i go to set the hook and there's no tension ,the line comes flying back limp you know it's a pike

what about this, has anyone used it before?

What brand mono would be good?

I don'think a 6" titanium leader would be heavy enough to pull the frog down.

MJIG  fishing hollow belly frog are exciting and gives me a rush eveytime 

there is a blow up, that's why i like frogging.

This is the other reason , a  22"er.

Do any of you use a leader for frogging?

Last summer i lost 5 frogs in one day because of pikes cutting my line,i'm using 40lb braid.

I'm thinking of using a 6" titanum leader.

I like the color of the scorpion more than the curado and like having a reel others don't have.

I'm looking to get a new baitcast and looking at the Shimano Scorpion 71xg (curado71xg) ,do you think its

worth it ?

What are the advantages of a JDM reel if any?

The Scorpion is 200$usd shipped , so it's about 280$cad.

What do you guys think of the curado hg for jerkbaits?

will it hold enough line? (14lb fluoro)

or should i get a bigger reel?

I'm in Montreal.

The handle it not stiff at all, it's the rubber handle itself that is getting sticky.( I think I fish too much....not)

I'm going to send it in to have it cleaned and ask to have the knob changed.

I don't want to deal with shiman au peche.

I have the stella 2500 FD.

thanks i'll give them a call

The knob on my stella is getting sticky and I would like to change it, Does anyone know if it would fit

and where I can get the knob?

I called the Montreal store they said 20% on

everything in the store and 50% on the clothing.

Hi

I heading to Cornwall in a few weeks to fish for smallies, should I fish stumps in 20ft or shorelines?

What about upstream near the dam?

thx

ok thanks

Might come to Cobourg beach at the end of July, are the rides there all summer or just for Canada day?

thx Tom

I know shiman au peche, brought my reels there before didn't like the service.
