If you have a Costco membership (or know anyone that does), their house brand (I think it is Kirkland) are pretty good batteries. I have had good success with them. Costco also carries the Optima.

I am not aware of anything (other than Hully Gully) in the immediate area since General Marine (downtown) and another that I can't recall the name of, on Oxford St east, shut down.

I have been lurking for far too long, and was (appropriately) called out for my first response to another post. Didn't want to hijack that one, so I am just trying follow some etiquette and introduce myself. I live in the London area, just north and outside of the city. Love to fish, have my own boat (1997 Legend Sportfish, 90HP 2-stroke Mariner). It's a passion, but not really very experienced, and don't get out nearly often enough. I try to get out in the area (mostly St. Clair and smaller inland lakes) targeting bass, pike, walleye and muskie (only ever caught one small one), and rent a cottage every summer and good fishing is a prerequistite for that. I have been reading this board with great interest, seems like a really great bunch of guys. I will start to contribute if I have anything meaningful to say. Thanks for listening. If I can ever help out with anything in this area, I will, and hopefully I can start to ask for your input too. And yes, I understand everyone loves the photos. I promise to start posting.

Guilty as charged. Guess I've been lurking too long. I will introduce myself properly in a separate post so as to not hijack this one.

How far are you willing to drive? I have had great luck and great service from Massel's Marine in New Hamburg (45 min drive from London). Really good guys.
