Burlington to 35/115 trailering the boat return cost me almost $100 last year!

I try and steer clear of the QEW, 401 and 400 whenever I can. What actually surprises me is considering the way idiots drive on those highways there are not more devastating crashes. Sad that we don't have more policing on our highways. Seems that catching 20 over speeders via radar is where it's at! We are told that speed kills. Well, reckless, inconsiderate, distracted, DUI, dangerous driving is what kills. We moved from the city to a 5,000 or so population village/small town almost 5 years ago. Luckily we can head back down to Burlington using country roads when we want to visit family, no stress driving.

With the amount of cap spent on 4 or 5 players they can only seriously go after someone cheap. Keefe doesn't trust Sammy either.

Until we triple or quadruple fines and seize property other than fishing gear nothing will change. https://www.sudbury.com/local-news/three-greater-sudbury-men-fined-for-spear-fishing-walleye-8387185

Still have a couple Lew.

Without a doubt the OFC/OFC Pike Derby...lol 😃 Still miss the GTG terribly! I'm not a fan fishing tournaments, don't want to get into it here, just my opinion, not critical of any one that fishes them.

The lower French can be a tough fish. Used to go every May, stayed at Atwood Island Lodge, has been sold since and some years almost got skunked. It can take a while to find fish. Dusk and early morning ended up being the best for walleye, strangely, a few hundred yards from the lodge. During the day got into a Muskie or two, nothing big. Watch yourselves, easy to get lost without a GPS and even easier to find a rock or two. Don't even think about trying to go down the rapids.

Think I know where that came from Cliff..🙂

Brainerd MN....

Probably the most sensible response to the Coyote " problem" I have read in some time.

Yup, I'm just a simple guy and a simple fisherman. The less I have to think about the more fish I catch..🙂

Well deserved Brian, you do some great work!

I would second Eagle Canvas. Great work.

Does Hartley get safe ice? I have fished it in the spring and LOTS of current.

Awesome , as usual Chris!

I was a diehard F150 guy until I bought my first EcoBoost (2012). Had problems (misfire) until I sold it and replaced with a 2016, same issues and some electronic probs. Have friends who bought F150's with 5L V8's. They had issues with very high oil consumption. Not saying that they haven't fixed the issues by now, but, I made the decision to go with RAM 1500 this time, (I am not a Chev/GMC truck lover). Bought a 2019 RAM 1500 Rebel and have driven it for 4 years, problem free, fingers crossed. Love the interior finish, great performance, better overall fuel economy than my F150 EcoBoost, (assuming you don't have a very heavy foot 🙂. The one thing I would change is the OffRoad tires on the Rebel, they are quite noisy, (more so in town than on highway). Tow a 30' trailer and 20' glass boat and sometimes forget I have something on the back..🤫. Not sure what your budget is but used trucks seem to be pricey, particularly at dealers.

Alrighty then! I stopped posting on this site because of asses making replies like this! You want to disagree, fine, but try being a little more respectful and a little less of an ass!

Well Cliff, I'm not sure I would go that route, especially where you live. I have a neighbour who bought a high end Ryobi last season as he has a matching Ryobi lawn mower which he is really happy with. The snow blower handles 2, 3,4" of dryish snow, he has a 50' single car driveway. However, the first heavy snowfall of 6-8" it bogged down and ran out of battery 2/3 down. Don't think it would be even close to handling the accumulation at the end of the driveway from the plow. Buy a higher end, mid size 4 stroke blower, don't go too big. Put chains on the drive wheels and it will go through 'most anything. I use gas treatment all season.

Was in Ketchikan last year. It was amazing to watch the seals chase the salmon up the creeks...amazing place.

I fished them almost exclusively for 5 or 6 years, (limited success). Accumulated probably $1000 + in Muskie baits. Always fished the same 3 or so..😳. Black and Orange spinnerbait, Same colour Double 10, Jailbird Believer, Clown Jerkbait.

If you can I would suggest putting as much as you can on CC, exchange rate is more favourable than cash transactions. But yes, all banks and most stores, lodges etc accept US dollars at a rate of exchange. Banks will have their pound of flesh both ways, US to Cdn and Cdn to US.

Awesome! Have fun you two!

Are you using cheap stamped steel knives or a forged one. A good quality forged chefs knife and a decent steel to align the edge between sharpening are worth the investment.

That's awesome Brian. You do great work and I'm glad you are starting to get some recognition! I wish you the best..

Damn, you are just a baby!
