Well you can all blame the lack of ice on what Santa brought me!

I got a Jiffy Model 30 and one of those new-fangled VPG ice fishing fish-finders!!

God I'm SO going crazy not being able to get out there!!!!!

LOL Hey folks, yep, LONG time no see. Haven't been out fishing much since the middle of summer, but I should have at least been more talkative on here... :oops: :oops: :oops: Anyway Christmas came early this year when I had to head down to Toronto for a family thing. Finally the opportunity I've bee...

Just bought one a couple of weeks ago!! Can't wait to try it out!!

Not to mention my other new toy, ... which y'all can read about in my other thread I'm about to write *LOL*

Hope to see many of you this winter, as I sure didn't get to see many of ya this summer!

If i'm floating a minnow, and if it's slightly bigger in size, I'll use a treble, and hook them either just under the dorsal fin (carefull not to hit the spinal cord) or in the fleshy part between the dorsal and the tail, below the spine.

Hey THanks for the offer Badger, but I just picked up the motor last night. Got the battery from Costco the night before (27 size cranking/deep cycle marine for $79! with three year warranty!) So I'm all geared up now for the electric motor. Can't wait to try it out tomorrow! Plan now is to go in th...

Thanks for all the advice gang!! I'm going to take it too, and go and buy a deep cycle battery. I already have a battery charger (got a really nice one for $10 at a garage sale *LOL*) so I'll be heading to Costco tonight!! Came up with a neat idea for transporting the battery and some other stuff ar...

YEP, I put this in the motor forum as well... *laughs* OK so my big question is this; I have just received an old 9.9hp (or 10?)Evinrude. It's from somewhere circa 1963-1965 or so I'd say. Great motor for sure!! Question is, what's the oil/gas mix I should be using, and what TYPE of oil should I be ...

Hey gang, I may post this in the main forum too, as I've never actually looked in here before, so I don't know how much traffic it gets *laughs* OK so my big question is this; I have just received an old 9.9hp (or 10?)Evinrude. It's from somewhere circa 1963-1965 or so I'd say. Great motor for sure!...

Thanks bowzog!! How quickly was quickly?? I only ask because I really like the idea of being able to use it for other emergency times, as well as the broad range of uses (like ice fishing! and camping etc etc) and the budget at the moment definitely won't let me buy both *L* I figure on an average o...

Although I usually start workin an area with a spinnerbait to see what's out there, I generally switch to a tube for a slower presentation through weeds and obvious structure... Actually that's pretty much my pattern year round for bass *L* I love pitchin tubes or similar type baits. This year howev...

Hellllllloooooo!!! I know, I know I haven't been around in ages..and it's terrible because I have a ton of great fishing reports to...well report! *laughs* BUT first I have a question...well a couple actually. I'm finally picking up my 12 or 14 foot (not sure which it is yet *laughs* Tinny this week...

LOL Actually wolfe, it's not a bait exactly, but I HAVE created something I would love to market *L* I plan on testing it this summer a bit...

And nope, no one will ever know what this one is...

Ok I think Bondo knows, but he'll keep quiet *LOL*

Oh yeah, I totally agree...creativity leads to success in fishing for sure... MY problem is that since I don't really know how the baits are supposed to work, I just start playing around... I think the general thing is if you KNOW how to fish your... stick baits, spoons, spinners, plastics.. etc. AN...

Well i dunno if anyone else has this exact problem.. *L* I'm in a very creative line of work, so I tend to be a creative sort of person... and then ends up enevitably working it's way into my fishing. If the bite is slow, or non-existent... Or if I'm fishing for a species I have no idea how to catch...

Darn!! I've been dying to go up there...too bad it's not the weekend after!!

Good luck and land some bigguns!!!!
