WOW. just wow and great that the thief was apprehended. This person sounds like absolute scum, esp re: the domestic issues.

wow,, that is really low and despicable. wish they had lost their license or had it suspended for longer than 30 days ffs. Hope people avoid this place and take their business elsewhere.

the Spit has truly become one of the city's gems. Wild life, city views etc. A great respite although the cormorants, if they're still there, were a blight that killed off many trees. Great that you helped build up a local escape for many !

I'd be looking at the Toronto islands or the Leslie St. Spit area as well, the latter which you can easily bike to. I imagine all the riprap and weed growth by the Spit would be conducive for bass and pike. High Park was great for kids (at least when I was there eons ago) but guessing it's meh now, if even allowed. Never had much luck with the Rouge near Port Union.

my most used are the Wusthof utility and chef's knives. I'll either sharpen with water stones or with two sided oil. For some stuff the Chinese cleaver sees duty. For the cabin then it's plain jane knife sets or a peasant chef's knife from Lee Valley.

Had Woods bug jackets but they're getting long in the tooth. Couple of year ago got this https://bugshirt.com/collections/frontpage/products/elite?variant=39423352504505. They're in Powassan so not far from my cabin. Love mine.

that dinner is major drool worthy ! love fiddleheads !

Indeed. always tempted to camp at Lovesick Lake Park as some sites have great views.

Burleigh Falls ? I used to paddle whitewater canoe but heard that one drop had a really, really nasty rock or something in the drop. I shld go and check it out at low water. Gorgeous view though

there's no byline for this story so no idea if it was a wire story or what. Still a great read on Gustafson's final day etc. Guess we'll see an uptick of Loomis rods, Shimano reels and plastics this summer/spring. Any appearances at shows and talks he may give are going to be nutz. I'd drive to hear him talk about the win, and about his methods. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/article-kenora-fisherman-the-first-canadian-to-win-the-bassmaster-classic-in/#comments

Be sure to know when to use an AED. They're not meant to revive a person who has no heartbeat (heat attack). ie-tv medical shows. As I've seen described elsewhere, a heart attack is a 'plumbing issue' and can't be helped by an AED. A cardiac arrest is an 'electrical issue' and can be aided with the timely use of an AED. Having said all that, getting one for community use is a very smart thing and there really is zero downside.

I didn't watch it online but do we know for sure he was running aluminum and not the GL Pro V ? Seems like a golden opportunity for Lund to capitalize on this win. Also wonder if this will make people rethink aluminum vs glass for these tourneys., but guess it depends on the waters and weather.

have ridden shotgun on a glass tourney boat down south, how much different would the ride be when they're screaming across the lake in aluminum ? rougher I imagine ?

edit-sorry, missed your earlier post terry Gustafson hangs on for the win ! 12 fish for 42 lbs 7 oz. Second place was a pound and change lighter, and was 15 fish. final day weigh ins are a blast. total show https://www.facebook.com/bass/photos/pcb.10160372591615915/10160372589230915/

https://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/olympics/article-canadian-jeff-gustafson-takes-lead-over-first-day-of-bassmaster/ hope he can hold onto it till the final weigh ins
