  1. I too got one last night but upon further inspection, these are reconditioned units. Minor scratches and not in the bag inside the box.. Don't really care too much so long as it works. Oh ya I took it out of the box and just turned the dial to pilot and the pilot light lit up even though I havent even put any propane bottles in yet, LOL.

     

    It was also labeled at $133 but they let it go for $79 when I pressed them. Mississauga store. Still lots left

    Pretty sure mine was brand new from there. Was in a bag. Zero marks. Box was mint.

  2. Yes Foots. No ice road. Lots of snow and slush. Walking out on the sled trails made it easy. If you veered off, in some areas it was bad. Seen a bunch of quads. If they followed the flattened trails they did ok. Did see two get stuck crossing the bay but they were ok. Where i fished, it seemed to be 9 inches of good ice. 8 inches of slush and than snow on top. Don't drive your vehicle onto the ice unless they fixed the launch area (for parking). Seen a few broken bumpers and trucks having to be pulled out with tow straps because they couldn't make it back up.

  3. Ended up on Joseph. The walk wasn't bad at all. Went 4 for 6. Lakers between 14-16 inches. Would of liked to hunt bigger guys but thought i did well for my first time on this specific lake.

     

    Was good to see the MNR out checking.

     

    Lots of marked fish. All came from 60fow. 2 off swammers, the other two off minnows on a jig head using my rod and mr jigger combo.

    The fish would constantly follow half way up and drop back down, i would drop back down, they'd come back up to it. Most seemed interested but did not want to commit at all.

     

    No pics as they were not pic worthy lol. Also forgot my ofc sign like usual.

  4. Went to Simcoe instead last week. Iced a few lakers, Drove the truck out, got stuck once.

     

    Have never ice fished these lakes before. Not looking for specific fishing spots, just good access points. Would prefer to fish for lakers/whities.

     

    If anyone is going out Monday and needs an extra let me know. My two friends are stuck at work (construction, no holiday for them).

     

    Thanks

  5. I wonder how some of the expensive Japanese braids stack up against everyday PowerPro... I don't mind spending $$$ on line, but there's gotta be a definite difference between the two, lol.

    I've used Sunline sx1 and fx. Like them both better than PP. Can usually score a deal when they run b1g1 promotions. Haven't tried the more expensive stuff because I use fluoro on most setups.

  6.  

    doubt that...from what ive seen online, Cabelas Canada is just as overpriced if not more then BPS.

     

    i remember when senkos were $9.99 at BPS and $6-7 anywhere else (including Sail, 5 mins down the road)

     

    This, BPS and Cabelas both have brutal pricing. Wouldn't care if they shut down or left. Sail and Lebaron are a lot better. Even better, online tackleshops in the states.
