  1. Glad to see some people enjoy sucker fishing!!! They are a hoot! I just use a small plastic worm on a jighead. Let it sit in bottom. A real worm is def. Better. But plastics produce too and I'm not constantly rebaiting. When they stack up near the creaks, they really stack up! Fish after fish after fish! Great way to introduce fishing to kids too! U generally keep one or two for pike bait, and one or two to smoke
  2. Yep, that new truck is a beaut Dan!!!
  3. Yes and no. It's a problem, undeniable. But it's on par with the rest of the country. It's just perception that makes it seem worse. And reservations are akin to tiny governments ruling over small amounts of people. It's really no different than our government, it's just more noticeable because of the small scale of it. Easier to notice an issue in 1000 person community then a 6million person community. I will say, RRFN treaty 3 is ran pretty awesome! I have full trust in our chief as he has proven time and time again to be for the community and has a remarkable track record in being a great human. All our financial records are are disclosed to the public monthly, the. A meeting for the community to discuss spending, funds allocation etc are up for discussion. Wanna work? All it takes is saying "yes I wanna work". He will find anything for you to do. Usually something like visiting and helping out elders. Community clean ups, infrastructure repair etc. There is literally no racism on our res. I'd know. I'm the only white guy there. And I've never been subjected to any racism, in fact I was welcome with open arms. Given ample opportunity to participate in prayers and community events, even traditional practices. Wanna sell drugs on our Rez? You'll be BCRd, convicted of any violent act including domestic abuse? BCRd, no room for any. Final behaviour on our Rez. I could go on and on, but it's quite remarkable. And when hydro rates skyrocketed, we built a solar farm. No everyone has free electricity, plus it employed half the community with good paying jobs. All the access money is transferred into accounts, for who??? Our children. Every excess dollar goes into trust for every child born of treaty 3. It's really amazing to watch/be apart of
  4. Great to hear my friend!!!!
  5. At least around here, theyd say native, Caucasian, African, whatever Aaaand scratch that. The official release names no races. But does mention it's not a friend that goes by the same name and works for an insurance company in town??? He must have already been threatened??? A 66 year old lady and a 77 year old man. Horrible people on this planet, I tells ya http://www.931theborder.ca/news/426868178/two-dead-one-custody-fort-frances http://www.931theborder.ca/news/1446845973/victims-and-suspect-identified-fort-frances-incident
  6. It's a possibility. Prison might be the SAFEST place for them unfortunately
  7. Organisms are lovely, I'll never quit figuring out my unit A larger screen would be sweet though???
  8. If only I played with my unit more... 7 kids now...
  9. This was off rez, But yeah it's OPP 100% if it was on Rez it would be OPP with treaty 3 assisting. Turns out the murderer is not the guy I thought. No names have been released yet but they did say a Caucasian guy, names will be released after notification of kin. Horrible nonetheless And no worries man. Lots of misinformation etc out there. It's not racist or anything to ask an honest question. So anyhow the murder occured sometime between Tuesday night and Wednesday morning. OPP came in hot, evacuated the whole area. Apperently the OPP were heavenly armed. A suspect was arrested late yesterday afternoon. Sounds like something gnarly went down. I mean murder is gnarly as it is, but to evacuate and come in heavily armed seems off. And elderly couple, relocated from BC are the victims. Not sure I wanna hear the rest
  10. Apperently lol. Daddy just didn't teach them right
  11. I am American lol.
  12. Better known incorrectly by most as a pickeral ????
  13. I wanna see what bass look like in 10 years. At this rate some tournies are gonna have 45lb bags coming in
  14. A lil off topic, learned this camping. 1. Fresh water fish, walleye etc, cooked on tinfoil over a fire with just seasoning salt added before cooking tastes amazing! 2. Pancake mix works awesome as a batter in a pinch
  15. Lol. U wish we had stolen vehicle issues. Our area is murder. Another double homicide either late last night or early today and the rumour is it's some nutjob that used to shorefish with me once in awhile in Manitou. For such a small area we sure get alot of murders, and some you could make a friggen horror flick about
  16. Once you have a decent grasp and want to learn ping speed etc, try fishing heavy current? you'll learn pretty quick what the functions on your until can or won't do
  17. That's just mean lol. Unless your gonna shoot of course, that's cool lol
  18. I'm not sure aboriginals will ever forgive colonialism. Topic for a chat or a political board though, not here lol
  19. Same here. Exact same guideline
  20. One of my friends, and an excellent angler live in souix lookout. Ill see what I can dig up from him after he gets off work
  21. No, I just like the area and fishing better...BUT.... Enter through souix lookout is great too! The fishing is great all over lac seul, so I wouldn't blame ya one bit for saving time and taking that route Either of the two, major benefits are your close to necessities if needed, etc.
  22. Yeah I get it. But disagree with it systematically, not business wise. Of course business is always going to triumph in these matters. I like when a crappy team had no chance. It made them make moves, develope from the ground up and make a winning team. The day this ideology kicked in for me is when lindros refused to play in Quebec. Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy the game. But I'll take 70's through early 90's hockey anyday of the week. Go watch NHL classics, it's depressingly better than today's game, politics and business removed
  23. It's just my preference but I'd be looking at the Westside aka Ear Falls.
