Re: In need of some help

my buddy was having a hard time getting his 1970's johnson 9.9 2-stroke to run right, and after seeing this thread we figured we'd give seafoam a try...it idled rough and would randomly die, hard starting, etc.. he brought it over last night, I disconnected the hose to the tank, emptied the gas from...

Re: Report a Poacher

I think You did the right thing if we all 'looked the other way', the world would be a much crap place people need to be called out on their wrong actions, if they don't, they'll keep doing it and ruin it for all of us (over-fishing, over-hunting, etc)....unfortunately the fact is, the CO's and the ...

Re: Opinions on gear and line setup

First, TGIF. 1) I know that CT is not the best place to be buying fishing gear, but I am a poor lad, so its sale bin for me. I saw they had an Abu Garcia rod and reel combo, reg $79.99 on for $29.99. Thoughts on this product? 2) Now a question about line setup. I have been using snap swivels since ...

Re: Suzuki 10w40 oil - Marine vs Motorcycle

I was just told (by a boat dealer) to stick with marine 10w30's for my honda 4 stroke, and to avoid other non-marine motor oil since they contain agents that may be harmful...they said marine oil between companies is interchangeable too, so evinrude in my honda, or honda in the yammy, etc. I've hear...

Re: Preventing out of season bass strikes.

I think the point he was trying to make is that it is hard to target one without getting the other. One of my favourite pike presentations is a lizzard on a carolina rig, pike love it (I use 80 lb flouro leader). Is it a pike or bass presentation? I'd say personally that's more of a bass presentati...

unless I'm mistaken, they're as much as a pike bait then a bass bait

vs. a jig, which is known to be mainly a bass lure

Re: Preventing out of season bass strikes.

I have been stopped on the QC side of the Ottawa river (in one of the bays), and they (QC? MNR) specifically asked what I was fishing for, and wanted to check and see what I had tied onto my rods, after checking my fishing license, etc. I was using a spinnerbait, my buddy a crank bait I believe, and...

Re: Ask advice on buying a St. Croix Triumph Spinning Rod

Nathan, when you say 'make sure the reel is sized appropriately' do you mean weight / balance wise or is there more to it then that?
