Now that's funny right there

Glad to hear when I come to visit your fine country I won't ever have to worry about running into a law enforcement officer like that and I'll leave it at that.

I've put "check" on the bottom of "Honey Do" list (NF)

Well done Keram I'd say your earned a trip or two -
LOL Dan well I'm one of them. NWO Ontario sure has endless oppertunities when it comes to fishing won't argue that one at all. Don't really know how remote your going to be able to get staying in Minnesota and if your planing on doing a fly in from there you'll most likely limit your choices because of the border crossing/ customs deal. If you really want to stay in MN do a search there still some decent oppertunities available but nothing like what available north of TBay. If your interested I can share a few things with you just send me a pm. Good Luck in your search

Lew I asked this same question last fall and followed Mark's and other's advice. Set up mono for the boards and 30lb braid for the dipseys. Your rod and real combo will do the job well.

Questions about one piece hockey sticks
Whopper replied to kickingfrog's topic in General Discussion
Don't feel bad Maureen I didn't either. Haven't skated in 30 years. I thought if the stick was in two pieces it was broke -
Yep some people are that stupid, here's another set up that was fished out of pool At least the idiot could have intalled a GFCI instead of regular receptacle

Good Luck Rick I would like to comment on home inspectors though, I totally agree with what Wayne said, not one person can know everything about plumbing, HVAC, structure, roof, electrical and so on. Some people instead of getting a whole house inspector will call each specialty to get a separate inspection for each but then again it's not a 100% foolproof. I used to do home electrical inspections for a company I worked for many years ago and the company had a disclaimer printed at the bottom of the work order and the inspection finding that relieved the company of any liability (I'm sure a good lawyer could have gotten around that). On my inspections the first thing I would tell the clients is that if there was any furniture/appliances blocking any electrical devices it would have to be moved so I could test each one, we didn't want to be responsible for anything broken while it was moved, if it didn't get moved it was noted on the report. Basements, attics, crawlspaces and garages were the worst for gathering clutter. Can't tell you how many times the company would get a phone call from a buyer that wanted us to come fix stuff for free just because we did the inspection six months to a year prior. Any problems, code violations or unsafe conditions would be noted on the inspection and forwarded to the appropriate party. Some times they would come back to us for estimates for repairs but very seldom did we performed them, they would usually find somebody's uncle's brother's cousin to do the repairs. I always would start at the electrical service and work my way out from there. Had one particular woman call about a receptacle not working and looked up the report and took a copy with me to check and sure enough when I did the inspection there was a large aquarium sitting in front of the receptacle that did not work that wasn't moved. Showed here the report and even showed her the depression that was still in the carpet three months later but she still thought we were responsible to fix it, she ended up cussing me out and called the owner and bugged the crap out of him until he sent someone out to fix it. Then after it was fixed she had the nerve to call back and complain because the service tech woke her baby while ringing her doorbell, it was definitely one of those no win situations. Sorry to ramble just thought you might like to hear the other side. There is no way one guy can inspect your whole house and get it right unless theres nothing wrong. Again good luck with your situation

Good on you Roger

The Lund sound like a decent deal but holding out a bit longer for what you really want is better

So what did you do with your Saturday Afternoon?
Whopper replied to irishfield's topic in General Discussion
I did a side job today to pad the fishing account, got enough back log to pay for the first few months of the new season. Even earned some brownie points hanging some new curtains Nice work Wayne. -
Good deal Ben! Your living what most of us dream about. Good Luck!

Yep not a good thing HH Terry you heard right about their daily intake. I've seen first hand what kind of destruction these birds can do. On two different islands on Lake Erie they have completely killed the vegetation where they congregate. Another place I fish, Rice Lake is starting to get a real good population of them too and they have completely killed the trees on Prison Island and the last time I was there they had but a pretty good dent in the trees on the southeast side on Potdash Island. I guess my point is not only are they harmful to the fishery they raise havoc with the vegetation in areas. Wayne I hope your successful in your effort to control

Yes heard the same thing Roy and a bunch of people are challenging the authenticity of the catch. Some say it was foul hooked.

Cliff Gerritt is correct they make snow melt cable specifically for roof applications The following is a link for you to look at http://www.tycothermal.com/usa/english/sno...al/default.aspx Good luck!
