Agreed. I belong to many quality clubs. My "never join a club that would have you as a member" comment comes from an old joke my brother use to say. It is a self depreciating kinda thing, I giggle like a school girl every time I hear it.

For people who can be sold---- Your a shill. Jay Leno sure loves his doritos. A new marketing for the fishing industry is upon us and upon us indeed. For the last few years all you have to do to become a "pro staffer" as it were, is take a package in the mail for free, full of fishing lures and the like and promise when you post on message boards that those particular products performed the best. A picture doesn't hurt either. Good on ya boys. you got a hundred bucks worth of stuff and it only cost you your credibility and your soul. Now for the real professionals I can respect it because it actually pays the bills. Good for you if you can make a go of it. They actually talk to their sponsors and have the opportunity to give feedback on what works and ultimately make their team better and more relevant. But when I see a picture on a fishing board by the average guy that says ``this picture was taken by a such and such camera`it makes me vomit. Or when a relative newcomer to a body of water, who all of the sudden can catch fish on it with a fishing team. Maybe a web designer. Tells you. Northland macho minnows and buckshots!!!!!! While his buddy ( who actually has fished the bay for a long time) wears the northland hat in every picture.,.... Ugh. Never mind taking a sidewinder and giving an extra bend, or even williams that work ok, or the famous mr champs. Fact of the matter is they all work good, but you have to be on the fish. For being tight lipped for that I do not blame them. I own an Arctic Cat. I love it. Great sled. Ski doo and Polaris make great rigs as well. The way it is. My truck is a Toyota Tundra. I love it. I have always loved fords and still do. My dad has a nice new GM, great truck. I am not on any team. Never will be. Never be part of a club that would have you as a member ( lol) I think people like teams because it gives them a sense of elitism. I am sure this will ruffle a few feathers but what the hell, everyone is insulated by there computers and can fantasize about acting as macho as they want. Your humble servant Grimace

Nice job man. I retire December 30th 2041. It lies on a Monday.

Just a fisherman here. Always fished as a kid. I have respect for hunters as I do fisherman. I just never got into it. To all those fisherman that do not respect hunters--- Remember one thing--- The people who care about the resource take care of the resource. You do not see p3ta involved in stocking programs or the caribou herds or ducks or elk. Cheers

I can't help you out, I have not fished Quinte this year through the ice so I have no info for you. I think maybe Roy meant by saying "I'm sure though that one of the guides like G2 or the Quinte team will take a minute to help you out...right guys?" was that maybe one of the area guides could take a minute to help you out. Not offer there services to you at a price to take you out. Sorry if I am off side. Anyways, I hope somebody gives you info man. Good luck on Quinte.

I have dealt with UPS twice. Disaster. I have severe dislike towards them.

I agree with this 100% I am a Union Crane Operator. Got in young. I am 33 now and have had my ticket for 8 years. Medical is 100 percent. I don't pay a dime for the dentist and we have a maximum pension. It is a good living. If you are lazy or not good at your work, you sit at home. It is that simple. A young person with motivation to expand his knowledge base like yourself should not have a problem with either of those. Cheers and good luck.

No need for the leader material. Walleyes have cone shaped teeth. Mono should work just fine.

If I lived on Bay of Quinte, I would not be fishing for Perch. :P Nice haul man. Great looking presentation on the food.

Not sure what spot you are thinking of. Highway 24, or as it is called now 124 runs east and west. Guelph lake would be east of Guelph. So if you are thinking of the right hand side. That would be south of 24. That is not the conservation area and is above the water intake for Guelph lake. I am not sure about the legalities if Guelph lake is closed just in the park or up there. If it is highway 6 north towards Elora just out of town on the right hand side the pond surrounded by trees, that is not Guelph Lake. Maybe some other Guelph guys can weigh in here. My instinct tells me the pond loaded with trees you are talking about is indeed on 124, south of. It has a bunch of dead trees on the far side. That would lie outside the boundary of Guelph Lake I think, but not sure. The drained lake on the left side is Guelph Lake proper.

For ice you should get a flasher. Nothing beats a flasher. Remember the x67. It use to sell for 500 dollars. All it was, was a fish easy 320, on steroids. now you can get one for 250. Mike get a flasher man. All the flashers are good. I have a vexilar fl 18. its great. I fished with a guy with a marcum lx-5. right then and there I knew the marcum was superior to my machine. The hummingbirds now are suppose to be fantastic, however I have not been around one first hand. Having said all that I still love my vex. I guess what In am trying to say is that a flasher is superior to the lcd machines.

Nice report man. I love your dog.

Ottawa has not turned a profit since the cup finals when they got slaughtered by Anaheim. Before Melnyk they could not turn a profit, ask Bryden. They have tailed off and will continue to. Melnyk will soon see that Ottawa are fair weather fans that only turn out for winners. They are having a marginal amount of success this year and are still turning out only 14000 a game. Regional TV contract is barely manageable. Ottawa can not support an CFL team let alone an NHL team. The route would be bay street. A long time has passed since then. Where did Ottawa have there last Stanley cup Parade Colonel by drive is pretty windy just like the sens future. -
Point well taken JP. But remember we are not allowed to take one for a spin as it were. We have to actually buy one for that. That being said, I have a dirty old citica that has taken a lot of abuse and has doubled as a trolling reel for many a species and hasn't failed me once in 5 years. So there. Before my baby was born I was on the water at least 80 days a year if not more. The main thing anyone needs in a good reel is a good drag system. But then again when bass guys are dragging 3 pound bass thru the weeds with 50 pound test line, I tend to ignore what they say when it comes to reels. Tongue firmly in cheek. Cheers

Kingsway in Guelph. The other 2 shops in Guelph are shady. Lebarons in Mississauga. I would like Bass Pro but half way through the season they are out of everything and when you ask them when it is coming in they say "I don't know"

Gotta love the prine. "The dogs were barking, the cars were parking, the loan sharks were sharking, the narcs were narking. Practically everyone was there."

Chuck Norris is so fast, he can run around the world and punch himself in the back of the head. Chuck Norris is the reason why Waldo is hiding. When there's a fire, you stop, drop, and roll. When there's a Chuck Norris, you stop, drop, and die. Chuck Norris can unscramble an egg. If you get roundhouse kicked in the face by Chuck Norris in your dream, you DIE! Chuck Norris was born in a log cabin that he built with his bare hands. Chuck Norris CAN lick his elbow. Chuck Norris puts the FUN in Funeral. Chuck Norris does not love Raymond. Bigfoot takes pictures of Chuck Norris. Chuck Norris is allowed to talk about Fight Club.

Problem in North America is that big business owns the government. That would make us fascists. Either way it sucks. Lol.
