  1. "In-Fisherman Ice Fishing Secrets Book"---- I have read some good reviews. Any of you have it? Any good? thx
  2. This nay have been discussed on here before but I did not find it on my brief search. I am considering buying for my I-phone. Navionics seem to be missing lots of smaller inland lakes. I get the impression that i-Boating has more. Any comments on which is best both in terms of coverage and usability? thx
  3. At least in BC they are giving teachers and staff a week or so to plan and prepare before the students arrive. Otherwise Day 1 will be chaos!
  4. Nobody----but Noooobody---could paint a picture with a song like the late and great John Prine who died of CV19 Have a listen--
  5. I don't see it as being an effective way to reduce numbers because they spook so easily it's hard to get close. I guess if you are an avid hunter you know of effective techniques.
  6. I hate steel leaders so I have not used them in years. I have landed quite a few pike w/o getting bitten off very often but I think my luck has run out----2 bitten off in the past week. This fishing is getting to be an expensive racket---taking my lucky 'killer'lures too.! I have seen some suggestions on here previously but cannot find that thread right now.My bud uses 15-20 # "super abrasion resistant" fluoro. What is you considered/expert opinion😃----- TIA
  7. Excellent post! It's a PITA to social dist etc when we meet the family but to avoid them completely would be terrible for our mental well being. If I had to stay home all the time I would have been taken away in a straight jacket by now.
  8. At the cottage open all windows to get lots of air flow---stay outside as much as possible. Take disinfectant an a cloth to wipe things down, esp at the cottage when you enter.
  9. Lots of rainbows in that area but they are a bit elusive----when you get close to one they move away. (a bit like some women I knew when I was younger)
  10. Well their website says they are operating at 50% cap'y, so if the size is similar to the Cdn one, yes there are hundreds aboard. Sensationalism? Not really.https://www.maidofthemist.com/
  11. Ha---I got put in the penalty box on another fishing site for breaking an unwritten rule that apparently was "understood"---then I had the nerve to publicly ask why?? 😄😃
  12. Thx, guys. I will give this one a pass. Too good to be true.
  13. Anyone ever heard of this company? Scam, perhaps?? https://www.fagiftc.com/products/the-ultra-light-stradic-reel-store-anniversary-promotion-outdoor-fishing-artifact?fbclid=IwAR1vDrlDwyC_8bgzJcvDEZfJv5ml6MPb6jhU1qY4-Bw8L6NDpda5Kuj9xY8
  14. I follow a similar procedure. What I found comes in handy is to have a small cloth in a ziplock soaked with lysol. If I have been touching surfaces such as shopping cart handle I can wipe the car door handle, wheel, gearshift etc and my hands. We are a bit short on sanitizer and I actually find the cloth easier to use. BTW---Ch312 did have a point. If someone is passing very briefly thru your space all you need to do is hold your breath for a few seconds.
  15. I am getting quite tired of hearing the polys saying how seriously they take this and how we must do likewise and then see the opposite being done. Why the heck didn't cops come with books of tickets to that Toronto park.----sort of a tax on stupidity--- That would convey the message a lot better than hearing all those words being spouted! They are condoning people who show such disrespect for front line workers and hinder the economy from reopening. It is costing lives as well as loads of $$.
