  1. Took me a while but I get it now. Big motor running to pull riggers and electric on front running reverse to slow you down. I would just pull a sock rather than mess with that and wear stuff out
  2. I wish...we have a bit of snow now but no ice I would go on.
  3. I'm sure happy to hear that. I was keeping track what I could on cabin radio and you always looked ok.
  4. and it beats the chromium plant they want to build here.
  5. The premier of Toronto must be making a buck off of it
  6. Just twist the wires together and tape them. I always end up ripping them off again before a joint has time to wear out
  7. Dave told me yesterday that he was heading to Whitehorse My daughter and her children and dog got out on a flight today Her husband is doing the drive. Sorry to inject this into Dave's thread but I fished with him a couple times.
  8. sharp rocks? dam find another spot
  9. North channel was running 58.5 today. My dog is not happy with no fish.
  10. Just need to say, If you drive Ottawa to Dryden one shot, you will not want to fish for 2 days. But that is the area for lots of big ones in the bush. Watsons pine portage is a good spot a fair bit closer
  11. Holy crap...won the lottery did you Drifter?
  12. Beats me. I know that 20 years ago snowmobile manufacturers went to 4 stroke engines to comply with emission regulations, and also etec type 2 strokes. It baffles me that manufacturers can't make an engine that accomodates ethanol . Hope this doesn't bite me in the ass but I have a 60 4 stroke outboard 12 years old and a 135 hp snowmobile the same. Always ran the cheapest gas I could get and never an additive. Shut them off at end of season with whatever gas was left in the tank and started again next season and rode away. Did annual maintenance and took care of stuff but thats it. 30,000 km on the snowmobile and runs like new, no idea on hours on the outboard but a few
  13. If they actually managed the resource. I think they do a crap job of it as it is all reaction rather than actual planning and management. I had a co make a crappy comment to me this winter about keeping a small lake trout and I told him I just wanted one little guy for breakfast. Then his partner goes on to say that a laker doesn't mature till about 22 inches for reproduction. So whats the point. Do you know what you are talking about or not. Not you crow, him

    Holy crap, was that you?...one of our best parties ever....
  15. I don't know what to say here and after perusing the replys it's more difficult. How bout you steer your own boat and hold it on a fishing spot. Give the fish a chance Rant over..LOL
  16. I dunno...I know a couple guys in Ohio with trailers like that Kinda like it but it doesn't suit northern Ontario...well yamaybysorta.. And the hangers, please, Dodge has none

    Thats a lotta bananas
  21. The pin came out and auger tip went down. Clockwise turn as some are counter clockwise.
  22. Just wondering what you all think. I know bananas are bad in a boat but what about ice fishing. My buddy is bringing bananas ice fishing. Just on sleds to backwoods lakes and no hut. He isn't doing well, I'm not doing great but not bad. You think the skunk is touching without even a boat? Should I say something to him? Thanks in advance for any suggestions
  23. Just saw a news article that was titled, Global race to develop cold weather batteries. Thats good, but. There are some northern communities but most of the worlds population is in warmer climes. So, concentrate on good batteries there and we will run off the devils fossil fuel till they figure it out. Mostly saves the world.
  24. Gord is a tournament and TV fisherman. Does he have any scientific studies to back his opinion. Not that I disagree but science rules over opinion...generally Where I live bass are open year round because they are a nuisance predator fish for the trout and walleye we mostly target. To go with the catch and release direction they would be outlawing most tournaments which least bothers me except for kids like them at the cottage. A few lure and boat manufacturers may be perturbed. The problem is, how do you write a law to keep everybody happy.
  25. Tournament fish are always weighed on the water. Walking distance of carrying the fish from livewell and back to water. It is illegal to transport live gamefish. Would point of capture be where it was hooked or landed. How far can you drift while taking a picture. That would be as ambiguous a rule as immediately tagging a moose and immediately informing the rest of the party that a moose was shot. No matter what, you shoot, they have a charge to lay. They need to address the ridiculous rules for baitfish zones they just came up with first
