  1. link work for me? Here is copy/paste for you guys that can't veiw it. PETERBOROUGH -- Charlie the cougar will soon move to a new, permanent home at a Quebec zoo. Caught by the Ministry of Natural Resources in mid July after he was spotted napping under the deck of a Grafton-area home, Charlie has been spending his days at Peterborough's Riverview Park and Zoo since. However, his stay in Peterborough come to an end on Sept. 2, when he's moved to Zoo Sauvage de St-Félicien, an award-winning facility in St. Félicien, Quebec. READ MORE: Cougar Caputured In Grafton In Excellent Condition Judging by Charlie's behaviour, it was determined early on that he grew up in captivity, and therefore, couldn't be returned to the wild. While Peterborough zoo staff have grown fond of the cougar and would love to see him stay, their primary concern is that Charlie is placed in a facility that will offer the best environment possible. Zoo Sauvage was selected through a collaborative search conducted by the Peterborough zoo and Canada's Accredited Zoos and Aquariums. The zoo is home to 75 species that live in large, natural exhibits. Charlie will have an opportunity to participate in Zoo Sauvage's breeding program. For more information on Zoo Sauvage, visit zoosauvage.org.
  2. Moved to new home, with some real "cougars" http://www.northumberlandnews.com/news-story/4805526-cougar-caught-in-grafton-not-staying-in-peterborough/
  3. I figure if your having to pinch the tail trying to make or break the slot your better off letting it go, here 13.8-19.7 is an easy 14-19 in my boat, if it isnt over 14 or under 19 it goes back!
  4. Wow looks great!! thanks for sharing. I dream of doing a trip like this one day.
  5. I can't help but wonder if any other driver had of struck the guy down other then Stewart, would we have even heard about the incident?

  7. I'm waiting to see it from another angle....First instinct was he throttles it to strike him, my human nature says he throttled it to swing the rear tire away from him. Can't wait to see how this pans out. It's nothing a few million can't smooth over (How Sad is that?)
  8. Ebay has a few other types, you could set up email alert so when ever someone post Swormers you are notified....you never know when a pack may pop up lol
  9. They believe this is not a "wild" cat but one that may have escaped from ones care....I'm interested in how this unfolds.
  10. Karl is a good guy, bought a truck off him once. Great to talk with and even great to my kids while we were at his place. Gave us some St.Croix hats and told my youngest to give her shimano one to some she didn't like lol. He knows his stuff, i enjoy the show knowing he films in waters I can relate too or even try myself!
  11. Nice report...I was on the scugog river this weekend and only managed a few under 3 pounds. Saturday morn the bite was so off I actually ended up drop shotting and got 3 large mouth on it lol. I had 6 blow ups in the pads but never hooked 1. Biggest fish came on a wacky rig.
  12. Crappie were in 9 feet of water and hitting gulp minnow on jig head, no need for micro tubes lol
  13. Glad you enjoyed, I was out monday first time this year for walleye, lots of boats not much action...I caught the only walleye of the 3 of us, too small to count it lol..We also managed some perch, crappie and a few bass in the usual eye spots? Hope it gets better will try again this week.
  14. Couldn't you just get a 7:1 and turn the handle slower? then you also have the speed if you need to wheel them in quick?
  15. Who woulda thought, I read a reply by Stoty that mentioned drop shot'n pan slammers for crappie, Well I got tired of the slip bobber and switched to a drop shot and the crappie crushed it!! tried again tonight even the bluegills love this technique! Throw in the odd 3lbs bass and game on you got yourself a great outing lol
  16. Water levels are way up and launching without a driver is tuff. best bet is to have someone to drive boat on and off trailer or bring waders water is cold.
  17. With the Slot size I'm sure a few decent spawners will be spared, I plan on keeping a couple If i can find them lol
  18. I was out back spooling a reel for my daughter, I heard 2 loud Booms! A lot of people say it shook their houses, my family felt and heard nothing inside...Guess I got a well built house lol
  19. Yes I'm no carpenter or engineer so not sure where to start lol.
  20. I have picked up a bow mount powerdive and have to figure out how to mount it on my tinny?? Its laying in the garage and the boats already been out on the water...I fear i'll be far to busy fishing to install it. I also need to put some type of flooring or deck in the front so my guests can stand up on a flat surface to stretch their legs.
  21. I say legit...these guys kill me they deliver packages to the door collect the duty and taxes from you then months later when you least expect it BAM the bill for brokerage....Not sure why they can't just charge me this at my door
