I live about 20 minutes from the Elk Lake Wilderness Resort. You can't go too far south from there because of Mountain Chete rapids down river. You can head up river towards Elk Lake and farther north, but I believe you can only go as far as Indian Chute. There are offshoots to other lakes...

I've used Seal All to fix plastic tanks. Just rough up the surface before applying. Available at CTC.

The rates you quoted are out of date. There was a rate increase last November. The 12.8¢ price we are being charged now is midway between off-peak and mid-peak.

Will this ruling affect the construction you have done on your property over the last couple years?

Still fishing out of a late 80's Doral Grande (4.3L Merc) with no structural issues. It was the Bayliners that were said to have hull issues.

My wife's grandparents had a neighboring cottage to Red Fisher in Mitchell's Bay circa 1960. In his book, Tight Lines and Tall Tales, a couple of the stories involve her grandfather and Red. Before he passed, my wife and I were at an outdoor show, and Red was signing copies of his book, and my...

If you are on the water, a few miles from shore, and headed east out of Burwell, follow the bluffs until you see a sandy opening that slopes steeply down into the water. Bingo!

Sweet! I've driven down Hastings and admired your "cottage". That camera is a great tool for people wondering about the current lake conditions.

Realistically, if you keep your bearings maintained, there really shouldn't be a need to replace them. If you do find that replacement is needed, make sure that you replace the bearing and cup as a set. Bearing Buddies or EZ Lube hubs ensure the hub void is filled with grease, preventing water...

The fish were everywhere it seems. Went straight south out of Burwell and started in 58 feet. We caught fish on 7, 8, and 10 color lead, downriggers, flatlines with Gibbs sinkers attached. It seemed that they fish were willing to hit whatever we through in the water, at varying depths. We...

When using Sail Flow for checking the wind forecasts, there are several different wind models available (Quicklook, GFS 0.5 Deg, CMC 0.6 Deg, NAM 3km, NAM 12km). Some of them show substantially different forecasts. Does anyone know what the difference is between them all? Is there one that is...
