The bible also has a calculator for other pound test line... Hmmm, a double digit eye, an in-line planner board and a Mann stretch 30, 200 ft back... enjoy yer ten and twelve pound line boys... just hope that crank is set nicely in it's mouth... cause the slightest knick and say good bye to a $12.00 lure and an in-valuable breeder. HH

With today's privacy issues, they would be hard pressed to get any info out of me! Good on ya Lew for sticking to yer guns! Folks, don't give your info to anyone, unless you know them and or trust them! And you folks out there who are seeking jobs and sending your resume out, please DO NOT PUT your birth date, or heaven forbid, your SIN on your resume! Heck, I've seen people post their resume with their B-day and SIN on Workopolis!!!!! That my friends in an invitation to identity theft! HH

Hey U.B.! I just bought a Panasonic 46 inch Viera and it has a suggested 30 year life span on the plasma, equaled to 8 hours of viewing per day, for the next 30 years! I believe that some strides have been made recently with regard to these "modern" screens, however I would have much rather purchased a good old tube TV instead, but could not find one!!!!! HH

I was walking through Sears yesterday and saw a guy setting up a Christmas Tree... I can't repeat what I said to him... at least not here! HH

I hope that smile you have stays today G. Stay strong and know there are many here for you. HH

Well G, I know that if you wanted my opinion, you would have asked for it! LOL I beleive that anything under 15lb test is too light for pulling inline boards! I defy anyone to prove to me that running lighter line does anything but create a situation where you will loose your fish and your lure, maybe your board and in turn, kill a trophy! The boards simply put too much pressure on your line and you will not have enough back bone left when that massive Sheep Head hammers your crank. HH

A man was fishing offshore in beautiful conditions. His first drop began with a 25kg Kingfish and the second produced a 20 lb snapper. On the third drop he had just scored his first ever Long tail tuna when his mobile phone rang. It was a doctor notifying him that his wife had just been in a terrible accident and was in critical condition in the intensive care unit. The man told the doctor to inform his wife where he was and that the he'd be there as soon as possible. As he hung up he realized he was leaving what was shaping up to be his best ever fishing trip. He decided to get in a couple of more drifts before heading to the hospital. He ended up catching several personal bests, and all in all, had his best days fishing by far. He was jubilant.... Then he remembered his wife. Feeling guilty he dashed to the hospital. He saw the doctor in the corridor and asked about his wife's condition. The doctor glared at him and shouted, 'You went ahead and kept fishing didn't you! I hope you're proud of yourself! While you were out for the past four hours enjoying yourself on the ocean, your wife has been languishing in the ICU! It's just as well you went ahead and finished the fishing because it will be more than likely your last!' 'For the rest of her life she will require 'round the clock care. And you'll be her care giver!' The man was feeling so guilty he broke down and sobbed . The doctor snickered and said, 'Just messing with you. She's dead. What'd you catch?' HH

To be honest Wayne, I would have bet good money that there would have been at least one mention of a drowned camera... HH

Dude... please tell me you are NOT eating fish out of the Thames!!!!!! You can get away with eating Pickereyes out of that river in the spring, but eating "resident" fish out of that river will not lead to long term health IMHO!!!! RE: eating "Silver Bass/White Perch... other will say differently, but I have tried them and would not do so again! HH

This is my response to all of the monthly reports... awesome!!!! Thanks for taking the time to show us all how it's done! Those of us stuck at work all summer sure do appreciate your time with family and friends... thanks for sharing! HH

Great report Will... that screen reminds me BOQ in the fall! Glad to see you and yer Dad gettin out... did you let HIM fish the front of the boat????? Ba ha! HH

Terry, you could try driving backwards everywhere!!!! Sorry I can't help, I can see that your in good hands! HH

What "G" said!!!LOL HH

The area in and around Telegraph Narrows is usually a good holding area for smallies! As far as pike go, my only catches have been incidentals while trolling for Pickereyes. Most have been caught suspending over deep water, in and around schools of bait fish. HH

HH

Simply awesome! It was "Bunkish" for me! Thanks, HH

Bump... for the sake of those who have missed it! Peter....? HH

Oh my! Thanks for that Bunk!!! I can now see me getting home from work tonight, and putting my guitar away and taking up sewing!!!!! I have a real love/hate relationship with guys like that... I love the way they play and Hate the way I do!!!! Thanks again! HH

Of course you can ply any tactic you wish! FYI... the "biggins" are coming in from Lake O and staging for their spring spawn. During this time, they are also fattening up for the winter. They follow the schools of bait fish into Quinte, they too are on a spawning run. The key to success on Quinte is to find pods of ACTIVE fish. You could get lucky and find a pod in the area you are jigging, but experience has shown that covering as much water as possible, is the best way to connect with active fish. There are a number of "spots" that have been targeted by jiggers and I assume they have a measure of success. I can only relate my personal experience and your chances of catching a double digit Pickereye to me anyway, are much higher trolling planer boards with large cranks. Dipsey's, Lead Core and riggers have their place as well. I hope this helps! HH

Bumpety bump, for the sake of the lumps! HH

Here's my suggestion to those trying to learn stuff and can't get yer fingers to work the way you want... buy a metronome, slow the thing down to 4-5 times SLOWER than the actual song and play it at that speed, until you can play it perfectly 20 time in a row. Then, speed up the metronome one knotch and repeat. Continue to this until you have reached the actual speed of the song and move on t the next one. Scales should be learned and played this way... essentially what we are talking about here is muscle memory and discipline, both of which take time, effort and patience. HH

Yup, I'm with Biteme on that one... by far the loudest band I have ever heard! Louder than The Who, and Black Sabbath put together!!!!! "The music is so loud, you can't hear the sound"! HH

Ok, this is the first time I have EVER seen anything like these things... seriously, do people really use this stuff to figure out tunes????? I guess I'm kinda old school, but I learn stuff by ear. Yes, it take a ton of work, but like any tool, the more you use it, the easier it gets! I'm with ya Cliff! HH "Show a man a lick and he will eventually learn to play it.... show a man how to listen and he will be able to play ANYTHING!!!!!" ... my new quote!!!!!

Cliff, get Danbo to play the gig and you and Bly can join us for a couple of days of lure washin and sheep head collecting! HH
