  1. 130 k is cruising speed. I ride Michigan trails and they have no speed limit.
  2. Or the speedo that has the stop post at the end of the scale and dad says to you...how would that needle get bent in there?
  3. I guess they store that top speed thing so you don't have to look down while you're driving eh. Yammies don't do that.
  4. I think that Doo is outtawack..the 127 mph...not thw 184 k Best I have seen on mine is 176k but its not the fastest. My buddy went ripping by me. I don't think a car going that fast would set up much of a wave. You would be ahead of it all the way.
  5. There are none...thats why we like frozen lakes
  6. Gotta love a walk in the Park eh. Nice post Anders...thankyou
  7. You only think she bought it. She knew there was no sense arguing with you at the boat show and let you give her your speil. Ask her tomorrow what she thinks.
  8. Oh come on...winter only comes once a year...stop being such a baby
  9. Nice report. thankyou. my daughter was about that size on her first hunting trip. She spent many weekends in LSPP in her first year as well.
  10. You have a 50-50 chance. Just remember, if the border guard asks if anybody has ever been arrested you gotta tell the truth. If you lie and he finds out...the whole group gets sent back. And don't even think of bringing any hand guns. Getting busted for that is a weekly occurance at the border here.
  11. When I tell the wife I'm going fishing in the morning all she says is" what time do you want me to get up and turn the coffee on" and "will you be home for dinner" Leaving at 5 so 4:30 and... not sure...figure I won't be and I'll just cook myself some fish when I get home

    Ice Line

    I use 20 lb trilene wrapped around a board. I hang it off of a limber willow gad cut from the side of the trail on the way in to the lake. I use a 10 lb snelled hook hanging off the flasher. I change the line out about every 5 years. When the hole ices over I stomp my heel in it to break the line loose and re-open the hole. Thats why I use 20 lb...it can take the beating of winter fishing and bouncing around in a sleigh. The fish I catch specs, lakers and eyes don't seem to care. I have been ice fishing for 40 years now and I think somebody started calling it ice line about 2 years ago so people would buy special line for winter fishing. I wouldn't use 6 or 8 lb line in winter. You get a decent fish rubbing it against the side of a hole and you may go home pretty depressed.
  13. I saw people unloading 4 wheelers there yesterday to head out. I would imagine its ok. Just stay on the trail to you punch your own hole. Fish near the huts...them guys bait the holes
  14. KTHNKS I'll go fishing this weekend instead
  15. yur kiddin right? a friend will be there..I think he prostaffs for lowrance or something..not real sure...I'm hoping he can do something for me. I'm looking towards a HDS 7 or 8 with sidescan
  16. Can I get a deal on a new fish finder?
  17. always up for a swill...even though I don't drink
  18. 50% of the water in the Sault comes from lake superior, the other 50% comes from wells. Depends on where you are in town what water you get. There is a well 3 blocks from my house. It is in a little block building. The water is pumped out of the ground, gets a little shot of chlorine for a just in case, and goes into the pipes. I trust that way more than any bottle I would buy off the store shelf. I fill a couple water jugs for going into the woods camping because you never know what you will pick up out of a creek or lake.
  19. Is there any hope of your buddy returning to reality? Doesn't sound like it to me. Its hard to back out on an old buddy but if there is no hope for her..... Ask her (your buddy) how come Mrs P3TA will let her (your buddy) fish when she(her wife) is at work but not when she isn't? Could be that she is bending a little and you may get your fishing partner back... 4 days at camp is pretty enticing though...he really should come for at least an overnighter. All he has to say is...dear..i'm gonna do that fishing trip Saturday that you said I could,,,but I won't be back till sunday night...then head for the door
  20. There are huts out there..must be enough...just stick to other people trails,
  21. They are catching whitefish in leighs bay. I wouldn't think Haviland is ready yet but I really don't know...it has been pretty cold and no snow so maybe. wormdangler should know
  22. Nice video, thankyou. Those sure are a pretty colour. Its giving me the itch...I should get out myself. I just don't do a lot of ice fishing anymore.
  23. Never thought of that george. I always told my wife that i thought some of them fancy salmon lures would make good earings. They would prolly look good in that box too....maybe a pair of hammered gold sweedish pimples with red blades on em. yes twocoda...for sale...I need snowmobile gas money
  24. 2 lake trout with one over and one under 16" is rediculous anyway...its just trying to make us mad and stop fishing. next year i hear we are getting a 3 spec limit...not gonna be much point in fishing pretty soon. PS...not a penny of our license fees should go to pay CO's. CO's are for catching poachers and poachers don't buy licenses. Linces fees should be spent on taking care of the fish
  25. No stain one coat of linseed oil to bring up the grain. One brush coat of blonde shelac and then wax.
