  1. Damnit!!!!!! Wish you had more.....Belleville eh?...don't know if I can road trip it, maybe he ships. Do u like yours for trolling spoons ?

    I have the spoon box but most of the hooks hanging off the dividers belong to cranks and it is the Cats' Ass. He does ship but I'm due to make a trip out there for the Wally opener and if he has any left I'll give you a heads up and pick up an extra 1 for you, that is if you haven't already purchased one.

     

    Maybe try Tightlines on Brock Rd. in Pickering.

     

    Pretty sure they carry a good supply of salmon type gear.

    John is well stocked Lew but I didn't notice any when I stopped by a couple of months ago. Wouldn't hurt to call.

  2. Not just the Great Lakes. A lot of your wild B.C. salmon swim through the same sewage, as do lot of commercial fish on the East Coast

    Absolutely. It happens all over the world. At least we give an honest go of trying to treat it. You will notice the larger trunk sewers in larger urban areas are placed in valleys, usually in the vicinity of creeks and rivers so if there is ever an issue with collapse or overflow it will follow the path of least resistance right to the lake, and be out of the sight of most. S#!T Happens ???

  3. thanks so much everyone. Looks like I will go with the aluma as it seems to be the choice of the majority. Looks like I'll even splurge and do the 90 (even though I said I wouldn't). I just hated the idea of possibly being underpowered. Scraped up a few more $ and lets do it right, without regrets

    Congratulations!!!! Enjoy.

     

    Moxie that opti would be slightly better on gas than a yammie 90 4 stroke, is lighter and would have better excelleration. Merc sells 10 engines for every yammie sold so its fair to say optis are a pretty good engine.

    I hear ya Dave but I just hold Merc to the same level as I do GM and it ain't one of esteem. Its' personal.

     

    hirk, you know, as well as I do, why merc sells that many more motors than yammy.

     

    and it has nothing to do with quality.

    X2.

     

    It's called product placement Steve (Brunswick corporate buy out and positioning to say the least).. If Yamaha could build a better boat then the G3.. they'd get there! Both great motors... the GMC./ Ford / Chrysler debate never serves any good...

     

    I had a 4 HP Merc when I was a kid of 6 years old.. it still runs (hate to say 45 years later)! 9.8 Merc in the boat house... beaten as a rental, came with the camp and still runs. My 275 Verado hasn't skipped a beat nor has the 9.9 pro kicker in 6 years. Same deal with my Honda 25... probably the same deal with your Yamaha. They all have horror stories, most caused by the owner.. not the brand.

    Agreed there are good and bad in every batch but I have always admired the Japanese for making it that much better.

     

    stop making me look!! I already bought so don't give me buyers remorse (nice electronics on that kijiji one!)...and there were no colour choices, Bay City only had the one left (black)

    I'm jealous. Hope it sees a lot of slime.

  4. I'll take the "E" for 5$, Bob.

    hehehe.

     

    It heads it in the right direction at least.. and trust me the crap they're making from reground pop bottles isn't going to be effected by a few ounces of what ever molecular structure of fishing line you're using. Not that I know anything about plastics..... :mellow:

    I never even considered it Wayne. A great idea indeed. :good:
