  1. nice! go get em! those daiwa whiskers have been around since the late 80s and are famously good.
  2. maybe so but I always thought the super rich always had drivers for just about everything?? ie someone else can drive while I relax.
  3. the FKs are fantastic. i have a 3000 size. the new FL is essentially the same reel but with a long stroke spool.
  4. Hi, last time i was at Bronte pier, the pier was closed off and gated. big sign saying 'structure unsafe keep off' not sure if thats due to rehab on the pier or just the high water. yesterday the waves were coming over top of the liftbridge on the hamilton side, i assume that is closed as well. Where can we chuck spoons this year??
  5. it kills me to see pics all over the place of people fishing or posing with fish from tubes, inflatables or kayaks and no life jacket on. in order for it to be effective you have to be WEARING IT.
  6. spend the money and get a stradic, either the FK 3000, or the new FL 3000.
  7. it says in the article the guy doing the ramming served jail time prior. sounds like a real winner.
  8. a notable exception to the trend of unrealistic big musky baits would be the rapala peto: https://rapala.ca/products/x-rap-peto granted, i dont know if they are being marketed specifically for muskie but I know at my local tackle store muskie guys are buying them up.
  9. awesome pics. some nice big pike too. well done.
  10. amazing fish. well done.

  12. Total Bull on the Judge's part. Sorry, but getting farted on in your FACE and On PURPOSE over and over again is absolutely bullying. Whether or not its worth millions is another story. his boss should have been disciplined for sure.
  13. yeah, Henry and Italo really black painted all fishing shows with that scandal. everyone assumed they all were doing that and if im not mistaken they claimed everyone was. Now Henry has been down in Florida for years making "fishing the flats" and Italo is still on TV with Canadian Sport Fishing. They got busted fishing out of season and taking someone elses fish and putting it on the end of their line.
  14. sorry but people like this should not be allowed behind the wheel of a motor vehicle. could have killed someone.
  15. I had a great time. picked up a G. Loomis E6X MRB903c baitcasting rod Natural Sports for a great price its the one ive always wanted. (the rod im swapping the new one for is for sale in the classifieds if anyone is interested E6X 843). nice to talk fishing and play with all kinds of gear (most of which i can't afford lol).
  16. Combo Sold pending pick up
  17. Hi everyone, I am selling a used high end spinning rod combo. For sale is a G. Loomis SJR842 GL3 Spinning Rod and Shimano Sustain 3000FE reel with spare spool. this is a fantastic combo. The rod is a 7 foot ONE piece rod, rated for 1/8 to 3/8 oz lures and 6-12 pound line. The reel is a shimano Sustain 3000 FE reel. This was the last 'good' sustain that shimano ever made, as it has the aluminum frame (new ones are graphite) and it comes with a spare spool (new ones don't). This reel also has the titanium spool lip (new ones don't have this either). Combo is $350. Located in Burlington. Thanks for Looking!
  18. Hello everyone. I am selling a gently used G. Loomis MBR843c E6X baitcasting rod. This is a ONE piece rod, 7 feet long, rated for 10-17 pound line and 1/4-3/4 oz lures. it is a fantastic rod. $180. Located in Burlington. Thanks for looking!
  19. I used to go to florida in the summer a lot when my family had a vacation spot there. you will catch bass all day but its easier morning and evening. middle of the day is hot and hard to catch them. people go to places like cuba and florida in the summer not because of the weather here but because 1. its cheaper and 2. you cannot snorkel on a coral reef in Ontario nor can you catch a tarpon if you stay here in July so yes I don't have an issue with summer sunny destinations simply because of the activities you can still do that you cant do here. however, you do have to watch out for hurricanes that time of year. although its usually bad from Sept. onwards. have fun!
  20. im an old schooler so I use mono still. my mono of choice is suffix siege for both spinning and baitcasting gear. I use 4 and 6 pound test on my 1000 size shimano spinning reels and 8 and 10 on my 3000 sizes. 10 and 12 pound mono on my baitcasting outfit. all suffix siege. its strong, abrasion resistant. and still e easy to handle. its my favorite that ive tried. used to be an XL user lol
  21. Sorry for your loss
  22. the newer rapalas may be garbage and overpriced, but I still stand by the Jointed Shad Rap and the X Rap Shad as two of the greatest crankbaits of all time. They have been around for a while now. but are really good. never had any issues with breakage etc.
