  1. Dang map won't load showing southern Ontario. On the Intellicast site, you can easily move the map to where you want to view. Just click and move the + to where you want... HH
  2. And now this.... https://weather.gc.ca/city/pages/on-143_metric_e.html HH
  3. http://www.intellicast.com/Local/WxMap.aspx?latitude=39&longitude=-97&zoomLevel=4&opacity=1&basemap=0014&layers=0039 Gonna spend some time this afternoon looking up plans for an ark! HH
  4. Terry, most Uber drivers don't net fish, just sayin! HH
  5. Is the stop actually set up to stop and catch poachers or is it in reality set up as a revenue generator? I guess it depends on who you ask! HH
  6. Ok, I changed my mind, I'm with Brian on this one! LOL HH
  7. The pool's gone up an inch and a half since yesterday Cliff! HH
  8. At least he could have used the stainless screws through the hull, so they won't rust! What a buffoon! HH
  9. I'm with Terry and Sinker on this one. When we give away one of our rights, the next one seems easy to let go as well. HH
  10. We4ll we have a forecast for tomorrow and heavy rain and east winds to 35k. Might consider staying away from that pier for a bit! HH
  11. Still cheaper than a Leaf's playoff game! I was at game three of the Leaf's playoff run. My buddy has been a season's ticket holder for years. Face value of the ticket was not mentioned on the actual ticket, but past experience tells me they were about $400 a pop. Four beers with tip was close to $75. Food is stupid expensive. The place was packed.I would much rather watch it on TV. HH
  12. So cool to see... thanks for sharing. HH
  13. Come on Lew, that 2nd pic looks like a decent Pickereye chop!!!! LOL Looks pretty nasty to me, thanks for sharing Lew. HH
  14. Every time Brian, every time! LOL I'd say yah got off lucky! LOL HH
  15. I tried to turn on the game last night, but CBC was airing three hours of video showing paint dry. HH
  16. Good shootin byes! I have to admit that I find it hard to believe that you guys were on Terry's boat and nothing got broken!!!!!!! LOL HH
  17. Well, I had Floro on my spinning outfit for a couple of years. i used it all year round (Seagar sp) and as cold as -30. I never had a problem with it. It might have been that it was 6lb test and therefore more "subtle" then the thicker stuff, but it worked great for me. HH
  18. This is taken from an old cormorant thread for this site, years ago... Cormorant Recipe Having shot your cormorant, hold it well away from you as you carry it home; these birds are exceedingly verminous and the lice are said to be not entirely host-specific. Hang up by the feet with a piece of wire, soak in petrol and set on fire. This treatment both removes most of the feathers and kills the lice. When the smoke has cleared away, take the cormorant down and cut off the beak. Send this to the local Conservancy Board who, if you are in the right area, will give you 3/6d or sometimes 5/- for it. Bury the carcase, preferably in a light sandy soil, and leave it there for a fortnight. This is said to improve the flavour by removing, in part at least, the taste of rotting fish. Dig up and skin and draw the bird. Place in a strong salt and water solution and soak for 48 hours. Remove, dry, stuff with whole, unpeeled onions: the onion skins are supposed to bleach the meat to a small extent, so that it is very dark brown instead of being entirely black. Simmer gently in seawater, to which two tablespoons of chloride of lime have been added, for six hours. This has a further tenderising effect. Take out of the water and allow to dry, meanwhile mixing up a stiff paste of methylated spirit and curry powder. Spread this mixture liberally over the breast of the bird. Finally roast in a very hot oven for three hours. The result is unbelievable. Throw it away. Not even a starving vulture would eat it. Why would you let your dog? HH
  19. These guys are nuts! Admirable job, but still flippin nuts! HH
  20. it an annual rite of spring, Joe vs the Robins. They like to nest on the under the decking of my main floor deck. They have been doing this since I moved in 9 years ago. They can build it pretty quickly, to the point where I have to check and destroy daily. It's not the nest itself that is bothersome, it's the mess they leave within a 10 foot radius of the nest. HH
  21. My former boss had a place on Kashabog (sp). They were robbed/broken into on a regular basis. The OPP described the theives as "mom and pop Kettle out doing their grocery and small appliance shopping. They stole food, small appliances, anything they could easily carry out of the cottage. OPP "promised" to keep a closer eye on things, well you can imagine how that went! They eventually put in a security system, that would alert them at there home in Toronto should anyone be breaking in. The darn thing went off so many times, it was nuts. They eventually sold off the cottage, too much worry and driving 2 hours back and forth, every time the alarm went off. Cops were sure it was always the same people as they would come back after some following their initial break in, to scoup up all the new things that insurance replaced. OP, I wish you luck. HH
  22. Long term forecast is calling for cooler than normal and rain until at least the middle of the month. I have a trib of Highland creek going through my backyard and it has been roaring for a couple of days now. Pretty darn soggy out there. HH
  23. Well, we have one Canadian team left, let's go you oil!!!!!! HH
  24. Simon, did you train Rolloff to shake the water off himself away from you? My dog would run up right beside me and shake! Still laugh out loud watching this! HH
  25. Yah, as an owner of a Lab, I kept thinking that it was my dog out there chasing the ball, which he would do all day! I think I'll re-watch it as my day hasn't been the best so far, but that video will help a lot! Thanks again Simon! HH
