I whole heartedly concur Bill, while they do occasionally occur naturally in the wild if the fish in question is a potential record and is from a known body of water stocked with triploids it should be immediately ineligible for record status. ie, Lake Diefenbaker

My 2006 Merc EFI 75~4 stroke clearly states in the owners manual not to run anything over 87 octane, given that ethanol free is not an option in that grade I had my marine mechanic install a fuel/water separator on the gas line just ahead of the engine, many years ago. That along with always using stabilizer I've never had an issue and last year I was running on 3 year old gas without a hiccup for a better part of the summer. I believe it was money well spent.

While I'm no expert here tech wise Cliff, what I have found is that it's the result of an IP address that has been flagged in the past as suspicious. Reach out to BlueEyes via PM and he should be able to help you. What I can say is that your not being hacked, I don't think there's any need for concern in that regard.

My friend built something similar back in the 80's and we used to run on Lake Ontario behind his house on the Burlington Beach Strip. It had a 25 Johnson Seahorse on it and it went like stink, good times. However, I once strapped a 15 Evinrude on the back of my 16' square back Sportspal (early 80's) and in a straight line it was much, much quicker. 😄 It was literally like a dragster, turning it at full throttle though was a big...NO, NO........ 🤣 It amazes me that I'm still here to share some of these stories. 🤪 So, if you ever get 'er done Barry, we'll want pictures,, or better yet.....video.

Exactly like that! 😆

He absolutely gives me the legs Doug, I've only used them thus far for soup stock. Actually I did smoke a couple legs a few years ago, wasn't great. I may take you up on your offer once the goods have been delivered.

I don't hunt but I do have two birds being delivered right to my door by my buddy who just filled his second tag this morning. He shoots 'em, I smoke 'em then we split the finished meat. It's a good arrangement.

Stellar, simply stellar!

Cliff sure does get around, solid dude he is.

That's hilarious, good girl Zoe. FYI....some damn fine fish there too CM.

Gordie came to my attention as a 10 month old pup in need of a new home by way of OFC member and friend John's wife Barbara ( thank you Barbara 🥰 ). After our first meeting I knew he was the right dog for me and a few days later I brought him into his new forever home, which will have been two years already in mid May. He hates the van but boy he sure does love the boat.

Thank you Sir, very kind of you.

Thank you Ralph. Thank you Rizzo.

Doug you'll have to ask Misfish about the first time he and I met.

Thanks Bill, very much appreciated my friend.

Thanks ya Sir. Thank you Barry.

Thank you Sir. Thank you Barry. Thanks Brian. LOL....Perhaps. Thanks Rob. Thank you Cliff.

Thanks Peter.

Thank you. My mind is "reeling" at the possibilities Albert. Thank you Lew. Thanks Boss.

I walk my pup several times a day and lately the Coniferous trees about the neighbourhood have been shedding lot's of seed cones and I had the idea to try and make reels seats out of them. Well the first, possibly a first anywhere is now done. There's definitely room for improvement but as the first prototype out of the shop I'm very pleased with the end results. I envisioned something once completed that would resemble fish scales and by golly I believe they do. So, here it is from start to finish........

Thanks Phil, hoping she'll be getting some Spring Trout and Salmon on is very soon.

Blue Spruce Cone Fisherman. The neighbours front lawn is currently covered in them.

Stay tuned for the end results by weeks end. Happy Easter Folks.

I can't make it up tomorrow Brian but heed these words, don't be sucked into buying any dry cured hard meats. 😄 I'm betting you'll sell out your wares. Enjoy. 👍
