  1. So what did you catch in the 2150 Lund with the steering wheel Not even a Tan
  2. What are you worried about you will be up at Lakair soon and you will have plenty of time to catch walleye in a tiller boat.If you don't catch one I sure will remind you The pressure is on Notice the 2 tillers in the background which perform well to produce Wall-ice
  3. I never grew up I just bought bigger toys Now I want to see a video of you driving it. It looks great man I made a chopper when I was 12 yrs old.
  4. Yes Paul you have to post it its a classic put it up for some of our new members lol
  5. I have a 10 year old Minnkota Transom mount 46lbs of thrust with maximiser the motor has 3.1hp indicated on top of the motor.
  6. Contact your Lund dealer this I believe is covered by a lifetime warranty. MTP
  7. I just downsized from an 18 1/2 foot tinny 73 inches wide. My new boat is 16.2 but has an 84 beam so far I don't see much of a difference just the new boat is heavier I would have to say the new width higher sides and deeper hull make it just as good as my 18 footer in big waves. I have a friend who has the same boat as my new 16 footer and I felt very safe in 3 to 4 foot waves. So I know my new one will serve me well I am yet to see something more than 3 foot chop.
  8. My favorite line is 30lb Stren Super Braid 9lb diameter. Mono I like Berkley Trilene Extra tough. I only use 6 to 8lb mono for trout.
  9. Same as Dan, Guy Lafleur. Don Cherry once said the greatest Hockey line to ever play Hockey was the Line of Guy Lafleur,Jacques Lemaire and Steve Shutt. When I went to the Montreal forum in the Seventies when Guy scored the crowd erupted like a roaring volcano. To this day I have never seen a hockey game like the one I saw 33 years ago. It was all goosebumps
  10. Joey and Paul congrats on your new home. OK ladies and gentleman yes seperate life insurance sounds better right well I am not sure about this one. My mortgage insurance costs me about $12 a month peace of mind I say. Your spouse dies and the house is paid off quickly the lady at the bank said it would take one week to settle the estate. Now with private insurance this could drag on for months before the insurance companie pays.Now I am not sure of the answer for one I am not in the insurance business but I have known friends who have had cars and a motorcycle stolen and it took 3 to 4 months to get a cheque in there hand.Perhaps someone from the insurance industrie could elaborate on how long it would take to settle. Although the bank does not sound like a bargain the house is paid for quickly. Now in this day and age it takes 2 salaries to pay for these overpriced homes. Do you want to leave your loved one with the extra finacial burden of high payments until all is settled from the insurance???? So lets say it takes the private insurance company a few months to settle and now you are paying all the bills on one salary I think it would be pretty tough to keep up with all the payments until the insurance settles. So hopefully someone in the insurance business can tell us how long a claim can take. I do know with my bank it will be fast no hassle and no worries. I am going to have to say go with the bank Joey. Enjoy the new home. I owe I owe so off to work I go
  11. Its time to call fishbusters you know Cliff and Carole CCMT and Bly Keep at it sooner or later you will find em. Go back to basics a worm and a hook or pick up some minnows. Good Luck . MTP
  12. Ya Glen really looks like a dangerous place to fish with all that rebar. Not a safe place to bring a kid. Great report Man was that your winter secret spot for whities? When is your spring fishin report.You know the one where you got the pickup stuck?????????
  13. That last pic sure shows one very fat salmon. So what happened all night until the bite turned on in the wee hours of the morning. Maybe next just hit the water at 4am.

  15. Mike use. Mepps Gold or Silver and Red. X-Raps Pink is amazing as well as the perch pattern. Husky jerks Red or charteuse spinner baits. Try a pause and retrieve method with the Rapalas. Good Luck.
