  1. I changed my name to match my signature.

  2. Definitely a great community. Frequently helpful. Rarely judgemental.
  3. It was definitely different than Simcoe. I think we saw maybe 4 sleds go by. We lost a lot more fish than I'm used to. They just weren't hitting as hard as they normally do.
  4. Success! Lake of Bays still producing good eating trout. We pulled up our limit of medium size trout. They weren't huge, but one was enough for a dinner. Tastey! The walk out was a little tough due to 3" of slush topped with 8" of snow. Got to my spot and drilled through about 8-10" of ice. The fishing was a little slower than last year but persistence payed off. Can't post pics yet but NAW had some good ones (pictures, I had the biggest fish of the day). Edit: Got a picture.
  5. Can I get a daily update on that spin?
  6. Anyone been out on Lake of Bays this winter? Haven't been out yet but planning on going soon. Usually have good luck with the lakers. For anyone that has been out, how is the ice? Are the fish shallow or deep right now? Last year I had lots of luck in less than 60 FoW. I don't see too much on this board about LoB so if I have any luck I'll post. I'll be around the southern half of the lake. Report and pic below.
  7. I'll stick to the muddy waters of Simcoe.
  8. Just a quick note on the 2010 Escape 4WD system. Although you can hit the traction control button on the dash, it will only let you spin the wheels in a straight line. Getting sideways a little will trigger the stability control which cannot be turned off. Great for the wife, not so much for me. Probably different for a 2008. Agreed that it is a great truck.
  9. Not far enough north. No kidding.

  10. I've got no complaints about my 2010 Escape. Only options on it are V6 and 4WD. 240HP is plenty of power for a small SUV. Haven't tried towing with it and don't have the tow package so I can't help you there, but it shouldn't have any trouble pulling a small boat. On a side note, the traction and stability control likes to kick in immediately when things start to go sideways. It works great and puts power down to all 4 wheels, but it's not as fun as my old YJ.
