Mike the Pike

Has anyone ever tried to book a campsite at an Ontario Provincial Park.What a night mare its like trying to win the lottery.I planned well in advance ,what site what date for Sandbanks Provincial Park.Go online to book this morning and the website barely moved because of too many people on the site .Forget the Phone busy busy and busy.After one hour I try to book my chosen site and yup all booked ,gone .Thats the system its liketrying to win the lottery.Well I will try and change the date for August.Thats my Rant for today the system sucks.MTP

Awesome report WTG.Lots of fish for the table.Thanks for letting the big ones go.I just read in a fishing magazine that the average female walleye has between 15 000 to 40 000 eggs during the spawn.A study of a 32 inch female walleye revealed that it had 162 000 eggs in her.

Nice pics and good for you closing the store and taking time for the family.I can't wait to be back in Quinte opening weekend in May.MTP

LOL Wayne

Nice catch Jed will you and Granny be eating those critters with some possum inners and some grits.

Whats this no shots of Tarpus!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Pita have you got any popular Quebec landmarks that the Quebecers on this board could Identify.MTP

Here is a Great shot from 1 metre above in Northern Quebec.A familar Historical Legend.

why exactly is there a lack of fuel in ontario? here in quebec everything seems fine and dandy

The problem has started here Carl.Some Petro cans and shell gas stations have been closing.

Mine hasn't been too good.

Glen at least you were cautious not to walk on that thin murky water

For me the season started to late I usually get out at least five times and this it has only been 2.Was out one day for trout and last saturday for a tournament.The bad news is my daughters 10 and 12 no longer show any interest .The good news is my son 8 can last the whole day and never quits.I have been happy with my outtings so far.For me its just seeing my little guy so happy fishin.Priceless.Don't give up Cliff.MTP

From 1984 to 1987 I worked for Micron and Bauer hockey skates I was fortunate enough to meet a some famous hockey players.I met Mario Lemieux the summer after he joined the NHL he actually worked for the company during previous summers.Also met Kevin Lowe when he was with the Edmonton Oilers.Raymond Bourque (Boston),Steve Shutt and Larry Robinson(Canadiens).Oh ya one more Hockey great Shane Corson. The year after Pierre Elliot Trudeau retired I went to the door(at Micron) and there he was our former Priminister with his three sons who were quite young at the time.They were there to purchase Ski equipement which we also sold.

When I met my wife in 1992 she won a trip to London England and Kenya Africa.So we are sitting in a restaurant in Kenya and we look over 2 tables and we see Alain Thick with a young woman half his age .The young Lady was so close to him we never bothered to disturb him.Thats all I can think of for now.

Great thread .MTP

Yep, OMAR has a great selection for sizes but unfortunately they didn't have colours anything like yours...

 

"...and here is Mike wearing a delightful yet practical little number in Lemon Meringue from the the Suzy Survival Line... adorable "

 

LOL Brian Lemon Meringue I like that much better than Bite me calling me Big Bird .Sort of gives me flavor.I bought that suit just before I went to Quinte in November the problem was I could not find any XL suits it was down to the yellow one so I had to buy it.I never thought I would get a litle ribbing from the OFC ers.Its nice to know I am adorable but I would rather here it from some of the females on this board.I am thankful we are not sharing a cell together lol.Congrats on the new Truck and boat.MTP

Brian forgot to mention he shops at OMAR THE TENT MAKER for all his clothes

Very nice Tracker so which OFNers are you inviting first.I hope you have house cleaning room service,satelite TV and like Terry said where is the Microwave?

The 3 Rings.First comes the engagement Ring.Then comes the wedding Ring.And then comes the SUFFERING!!!!!

Bill don't worry about the french I know people who have lived here all there life and do not speak french.They get by.It would be cheaper to buy a license for the year Bill.Don't worry there is good fishing.I just don't know this area.I will talk to some people from the region.Let me get back to you.I don't know if a minor needs a licence.MTP

Fly here!!!!!!!!!!

Signs You've Chosen a "No Frills" Airline

You can't board the plane unless you have the exact change.

Before you take off, the stewardess tells you to fasten your Velcro.

The Captain asks all the passengers to chip in a little for gas.

When they pull the steps away, the plane starts rocking.

The Captain yells at the ground crew to get the cows off the runway.

You ask the Captain how often their planes crash and he says, "Just once."

No movie. Don't need one. Your life keeps flashing before your eyes.

You see a man with a gun, but he's demanding to be let off the plane.

All the planes have both a bathroom and a chapel.

Where are you from.We could point you in the right direction with this information.MTP

Bill here is a website with info on Quebec outfitters.
