The contents in the desk alone is worth more than a grand.

Here is my .02 worth. I come on this site, I click on "View new content". I ignore the threads i have no interest in. I don't post on the political threads because i don't read the political threads. it's kind of cool concept, if you don't read the posts you have no interest in, you don't have to complain about them. Easy peasy! Big Cliff, I am guilty of reading your fishing thread and not replying to it. I will attempt to make replies to the posts that interest me in the future. I understand where the frustration comes in play here. Winternet..... Aargh... it's in the air..... Cheers, Ron...

St. Marys River, Lake George - in the waters of Laird Twp., from Pumpkin Point upstream to the Laird Twp. boundary. Walleye S - 0 and C - 0 from Apr. 1 - June 15. Tell the Co you are fishing for Northern Pike, or Rainbow Trout or Bluegill or Whitefish. They are all in season in that area. The regs are written as 0 (zero) posession, not as a sanctuary.

Tomorrow is my quit smoking anniversary too. January 10th, 2016.

Don't know your budget but this outfit is relatively midrange..... Diawa Lexa 400HSL with power handle. A great working reel lots of power to burn the big blades like Mike's Handlebarz dbl 10s. This reel is heavier than the ABU Toro NaCl, but, it feels better in hand. You can see the rod in the background on this photo. I am using the Lexa 400 as well. Not sure what length you are hoping to achieve once the rod is collapsed. My okuma EVX extra heavy 8'6" collapses to 6'11". It's a great working setup. I use this for Muskie on ALL lakes I fish. This combo also goes with me for tossing smaller lures like Gliden Raps and small invaders for pike. Depending on size of Pike in the lakes you fish, it might be a little overkill. You can see the rod in the background in this pic too. My buddy is using the NaCl as the combo. Most important, make sure you go with high speed reels. I am using a power handle on the Lexa 400 and a double paddle on my NaCl for jerk baits. Cheers, Ron...

I went to the local dump and got a free hot box. (Old freezer). wired it up to accept a space heater. Works great. You can always boost up the heat when your working in the shop with a sundial propane heater, just do yourself a favour and run a CO2 detector as well.

Sounds like your brake cylinders are seized.

Swiss Bear in Apsley... hands down. Peterborough I would go with Rileys Pub if you are down town. Porch and Pint if you got boat in tow East end of Lansdowne St. DING DING DING we have a winner! Cobourg area, Swiss Chalet on Strathy Rd. Best breakfast is at Whimpy's on Division St. Brighton has the best breakfast around this neck of the woods. Just off 401 and hwy 30 exit, it's called JR's Midway Cafe.

Of course he was out walking around in the daylight.... You kicked him out of his home/your boat! LOL

No shortage of them in some areas! My first mirror.

Wouldn't make a difference with his roe bags nootch. They still won't catch fish..... LOL Is there anything else other than bucktails that catch walleye? make sure you got lots of color choices too. Any color is perfect so long as the hair is black.

Good to hear Sinker! I'll let you know when I buy another new one and maybe you will be ready for an upgrade to my 80 Terrova. LOL

Mine had the same issue as you described. It was a weak breaker. Simple by pass test to rule this out.

Hey! Don't talk so highly about my nephew, It'll go to his head! Seriously though, he does do great work. I'm glad he could help out in such short notice. Cheers, Ron.

Atlantic... Nice shot!

You want to beef up your dock at the cottage.

One thing no one seemed to have mentioned... Crack the lug nuts at home to make sure you can take them off if you are on the road and have to change a tire. Personally, like someone mentioned above, I have a complete hub with packed bearings and seal with spare tire installed.

Hey all. It is a go for this weekend. Hope to some of you there. Cheers...

Hello all. The tentative date for the Cobourg fish lift is this weekend, Saturday March 26 starting at 8 AM. Directions to location: https://www.google.ca/maps/place/The+Mill+Restaurant+%26+Pub/@43.975321,-78.183197,15z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0x79c3b1a9b5802f44 I will update this thread by Wednesday to confirm dates.

Way to Matt. I'll let Nooch know of our success. Cheers, Ron...

The show was a great success! We had a lot of people through our booth and it did very well for my Nephews hobby business. We had a couple of retail stores come over and you just might see "Gremlins custom tackle and ties" in a store near you. As for myself, I had sold most of my rods and most of my reels. The people who attended the show early got the best deals. My hat is off to Peter and the Bommanville Fishing Club for organizing such a smooth operation. Being a club volunteer, I know all to well what work is involved and the pay rate that joins it. hahaha On the up side, Bommanville Fishing Club just received a new member! My way of supporting the club itself. Cheers, Ron...

Apparently we are set up right beside you guys. Looking forward to meeting you. Cheers, Ron

We actually got a booth set up this year. My Nephew is selling hand poured and tied jigs and I am selling off a few hand fulls of rods and 20 some odd reels I don't use anymore.

I believed the whole recipe thing until I saw 1/4 bottle of beer. Then I said to myself,there is no way you wasted a 1/4bottle of beer.......

Yes, his deed shows "to waters edge". One of the very few in Ontario. As one of the above posters said, done some hip waders and stand in the water. It will irritate the ell out of him. So, why bother. Just stand on the west side of river and get no flack. Cheers, Ron...
