After what I estimate to be about 12 man hours of snorkeling a 100 yard by 200 yard search area over 8 days, and scuba diving for 2 more days, I finally found my rod yesterday while snorkeling. Couldn't believe it...was in 12 feet of water, so buried in weeds that all I saw was the quantum insignia ...

Still swimming....

I think they put just shy of the amount of cork they know it needs....keeps us buying! I know roughly where, but I'm still swimming a 200 yard by 200 yard grid everyday (so not a great situation). 8' deep or so, weedy of course....pretty much need to be right over it I reckon, pretty sure she's gone...

Quantum Tour Edition went overboard - FOUND IT!

I'm an idiot, lost my Quantum Tour Edition rod and baitcast reel overboard Sunday when I put it down (with spinner bait out!) to take a fish off the hook for my son, heard a click as it hit the transom on the way out!! First question - think it floats? It was choppy, rod dove down either from hook o...

Does anyone know how the new Ontario HST (harmonized sales tax) that comes into affect on July 1, 2010 (as far as I know) affects the purchase of used boats in Ontario? Under the old/current system used boats/trailers only qualify for PST (8%) if bought and sold privately, and if you do it right of ...

Minnows in Ottawa

Yeah, that's probably it...I was just a kid but sounds quite possible.

Amazing how as the city gets more and more built up and more commercial you lose services eh? If only Starbucks sold bait....then I'd be happy!

Minnows

Guys, thanks very much. I guess I wasn't quite clear, what I'm asking is more "is there a place inside of the greenbelt?"

I remember a place around Westboro that my dad and I would use when I was a kid but that's back in the 80s and no doubt it's gone now....

Cheers.

Where to buy minnows around Ottawa?

Hi guys, clearly a newbie to ice fishing I am.....other than Manotick bait and tackle where can you buy minnows in January that's more central to town??? I'm hoping there's somewhere other than way out by Petrie?

Thanks in advance.
