Dan Andrews Posted March 18, 2019 Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 Bill it was a great show this year. Miss the carp guy though. Had it in my head to buy a starter kit for my son. Rest in Peace Lorne Content was so tempting. Almost bought a shotgun, did buy some broadheads and would have bought waders but he was out of my size already. Love the stone and glass crafts but I make my own. They had some great ideas there. Saw some awesome carvings. I have wood carving friends who don't know about this show. Look up the Niagara Wood Carvers for next year. They'd benefit if they gain a few members and might be able to unload some hard work. The taxidermist showed his experience but he gave me some good tips for painting. Smerch will be surprised. That ATV was amazing. Tires were a G a piece! Never knew the machines sold that cheap though. I'm not into wearing logos but that guy had some quality outdoor clothing. I mean that was good stuff. It was nice to have a 13 year employee of the NPCA there. Endangered species now a days. They've been in the news so much lately it was nice to see them and have a good chat. Maybe just maybe I'll do some volunteering for them soon but we'll see if they fix it first. That old dog is so beautiful. Been watching her age every year and I'm betting she's only got a couple left in her. Man you had some beauty hand made baits there. If I still fished I would have been all over that. Looking to get back in it once things warm up. I might just donate it all to tackle share and start again. Would be easier than untangling it all You got lucky with the weather. To windy and shitty to fish but good enough to drive. It was busy while we were there. What would I like to see in the future? Some kayak equipment or a kayak dealer. Not just the top of the line stuff but entry level. Portable fish finders easy to use with kayaks/canoes etc. More winter gear like waterproof boots good up to -50 for ice fishing. Camp stoves and setups. Solar power is all the rage and there are some sweet hammocks and tents out there. Cutting edge ideas for outback camping. Oh ya and let us adults cast lol. Us old guys who don't have kids want a try LOL. Lastly what this generation needs is a way to keep the cell phone charged. Yes that's my last entry on the wish list but cell phones are great for navigation and calling for help so if you waste all the battery taking pictures you need a way to charge it so you can call dial a beer if you get lost. There must be an app for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smerchly Posted March 18, 2019 Report Share Posted March 18, 2019 1 hour ago, Dan Andrews said: Us old guys who don't have kids want a try What ? Gramps ! Some good ideas there Daniel . You need to go fishing more at your age ....food for the soul ....and the plate ! You still keep in touch with nature , always some wildlife to keep one company . Before venturing into carp fishing & buying a carp rod & reel , try a few trips using an old heavy rod & reel would get one acquainted with the baits , rigs & stamina waiting & waiting for the big bang ! I have a "starter" rod & reel just for that purpose .....and tons of corn ! etc. 1 hour ago, Dan Andrews said: Smerch will be surprised. Walmart spray cans ? I have used some to paint a silvery tinge on steelies . Using foam in a can to fill the fish cavity ...just experimenting ....We have a taxidermist here Dan....Gunner2 who helps mod this site does great work ! Very busy lately ..... Cell phones ...... has 2 apps .....my little flipper is always with me to call home or for home to call me to pick up some milk.....or 911 ...at my age I might need a cool beer ..... ....and about Lorne Morley .....he was the carp guru ! Great guy , think of him often at the carp holes..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank-you for taking the time to critique the event. It is really appreciated! So funny that you mentioned adults casting. I captured this Mom having a go at it. She was casting to a target on the far wall...one of my favourite images from the day...Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
