  1. Maybe the time has come (again) for a pick up with an incredibly tiny bed. Think Subaru Baja. Seriously, take a look at 99 percent of the trucks on the road that aren't in commercial use and they have jack squat in the bed, haven't had anything in the back all month and won't next month either. For what's it's worth I don't think that things that ugly, stick a hemi in it and a dodge badge on it and the same folks who are rediculing it would be drooling over it.

    Ummmm no, I disagree

  2.  

    Seems every Newfie here in town owns a jacked up, tuned up diesel pickup.

    They all think they're John Force!!!! :whistling:

    That's very common here too and it drives me nuts.

     

    All fine if it's needed for work purposes but, like my daughter's boyfriend, most are just highway driven and that's just silly

  3. This is perfect for the suppliers, jack em' up then lower them to 15 cents more than what was at before the hurricane and everyone is happy. Are we that stupid, yep.

    That is financial conditioning. I've mentioned it 3x now lol

  4. Hahaha about 6 weeks ago someone was filming me fish. Was kinda funny for a minute but for an hour it was quite the annoyance

     

    No idea who was filming my either???? I could see the operator.

     

    I'd love one though, and I love seeing the footage.

     

    I think used for documenting personal things etc it would be a blast!

     

    I'd fly one here no prob!

  5. But it would seem that Eastern Canada would prefer to buy their crude from anywhere but Western Canada. If we refined what we produced this type of raping wouldn't happen. BTW the last I checked gas was still cheaper in Houston at ground zero than anywhere in Canada.

    Yep. Makes zero sense.

     

    Nafta bent us over with no Vaseline (petroleum based product lol).

     

    It'll never happen in today's state of politics/affairs/industry and special interest groups

     

    But Canada could quite literally be the world's richest country with the lowest amount of unemployment and the highest pay per hour if we had played our cards right(we have second world military so obviously we get bullied into bullcrap deals) no disrespect to our soldiers which are indeed world class

  6. They sell em here but rarely are they bought. Outside of tournies(bass), walleye are the main target.

     

    And most people want medium minnows.

     

    Big suckers are awesome for walleye. I was put on that by a buddy a few years back. Don't even use stinger hooks, just a 1-2-3 count

  7. Simon, that's "the day"

     

    They only come around so often and boy is it fun!

     

    Awesome video! Obviously an amazing time. Kudos

     

    I had days like that but it's few and far between. My most memorable was shore fishing with my oldest daughter. In 2-3 hours we caught maybe 20-30 Walters all 25"-32". The planets just aligned. I'll never forget that day

     

    You have yours on video!

     

    Also, anyone doubting big sucker minnows for walleye is a fool. I'll go right up to 7-8" and those walleyes go nuts on em in spring and fall(maybe summer too but I don't recall trying)

     

    Thanks for the vid man! That was exciting!

  8. so......you're trying to tell me all those refineries in Sarnia aren't operating, imperial oil, Esso, Sunoco and shell, that are producing over 200,000 barrels per day are not operational.........someone should those workers to go home then

    Calgary and Edmonton as well. This is part of my point. We can easily refine ourselves(in Canada)

     

    BUT...

     

    Just like lumber, we produce it send it State side and buy back at an inflated cost.

     

    "Free trade" was the worst possible deal for Canada which has EVERYTHING NEEDED TO BE SELF SUSTAINING and then profit later from world wide sales of production

  9. never understood buying coating when cornmeal, flour and some s&p is all you need ;) Quetico pickerel tasted good in that, mmm.

    Nothing wrong with that at all. Heck just flour/seasoning salt is great!

     

    But I rotate because there are ALOT of ways to enjoy fish

     

    Sa.e reason I'll cook/season eggs about 20 different ways, and enjoy them all!

  10. That's just it Joe, gas prices jump $0.05 to $0.20 overnight based on what you call replacement cost, but it'll take months for it to

    retreat back to the original price...longer if they can find enough turmoil in the world to justify higher pricing.
