  1. Everybody had gone to work before the fire started. Neighbour called it in. The gang at the house is still shook up. Some former tenants have also tried to add to problems with insinuations of arson.
  2. No repairs. Building will be a tear down. Fire originated in the Kitchen/cabana area. Fridge or oven/ electrical fault.
  3. Son's apt building burnt down early this week. Finally got to go in this morning to help Rob sort through what looks salvageable. What it means is I have a small mountain of fishing tackle, jigs, lures, and accessories that need cleaning and drying out. Just add that to the list of chores that is cutting into my fishing time.
  4. Get used to being raped at the cash register. Its going to get worse.
  5. Hit the river in the morning for some quiet time, slowly trolling Ugli Boys harnesses with a friend. Caught just about everything but the kitchen sink. Only things we did not catch were pike, muskie and crappie. Weatherman sure screwed up on the forecast again. Where's the rain?????
  6. We go as part of a group with CFN. We get a fair discount on that week.
  7. The pontoon is great. Comfortable and easy on the old body. Has a graph. We drift or anchor at various spots. General size rules of 4 under 18.1" for walleye. 6 pike with 2 over 24". Lots of smallies and perch. Last year we float fished a lot. This year it was dropshotting.
  8. Had a great week up in Timmins area with the family and good friends from CFN. Lots of fish, good food, great hosts, good company. Could not ask for anything more. (Unless it was a 40" pike)
  9. I'm sticking to the navy cure.... Lime juice, salt and a good measure of pusser's. Cures everything.
  10. Used to do tar and stone industrial roofing back in the late 70's. Bloody brutal work back then. Seen a few pass out on the roof. I almost passed out on one of the ladders. Been too hot for me. Heat got to me Monday and Tuesday. First time in decades. I'm only casting after dark as the temps drop.
  11. Funny thing is that the area around the farm has seen a rise in the bee population, as well as other beneficial and harmful insects. Much come as a result of reduced pesticide use on a number of farms.
  12. We is back. Long drive. No fishing along the wway. Chopped one day off the drive.
  13. Our visit with the grandkids is almost over. Then it will be a 4 day drive back, with fishing along the way. I hope.
  14. We've caught a few decent pike, but none in the 40+ category. Individual lakes can have different limits depending on local populations and fishing pressure. There are 4 lakes within a 1/2 hour.
  15. Who says you can't slip float for walters. Got us some Sask gold.
  16. An independent farm outlet on HWY 20 tween the Falls and Allanburg
  17. I think I still have a part bag of puffs.
  18. Check out "Small Scale Farms" There focus is local product.
  19. The colder the water, the longer to resurface.
  20. There are a few "drug houses" in the area and crack heads aplenty.
  21. Just a couple blocks down the street.
  22. Sorry state when everybody has to go home from the camp because the electronic gadgets and gizmos don't work
  23. Up at the dam The feds were out electrofishing the lower grand by the marshes.
