  1. i bought a 15 amp solar panels at canadian tire they were 150.00 they are 2 panels that connect together siliconed them to the top of my 5th wheel trailer and have not had a problem with the batteries they are always fully charged. your fridge will draw power if its a newer fridge from the auto igniter sensor. its a good unit i have seen them on sale for 129.00 and they come with all the connections you need.
  2. i think you are wrong on the price of oil by the end of sept it will be close to 100 bucks a barrel we need in alberta to get the price of nat gas to come up to get things humming again
  3. down at carseland there is a nice campground cross the bridge and its on your right hand side not sure if there opened yet but fishing is good above the weir or it was good last weekend.
  4. dont cheep out get the honda 3000 i have had mine for 5yrs now not a ounce of problem i know they are twice the price but well worth it you can run your ac on 30 amp breaker charge your batteries with 10 amp build in charger and a tank of fuel will last you all weekend and the most important thing you wont piss off the people you are camping next to.
  5. i got 2 of the small square ones i think they are .5 amp i have for each battery in my trailer and they keep them charged up for the weekend easy also have a .2amp for the boat and its always charged up for the weekend i also have a generator if need power to run coffee maker or air con or the kids want to watch tv lol the good thing about them when you are not using your trailer the batties are always getting charged up they work good
  6. life in the patch been laid off every spring for the last 20 yrs but i love spring breakup as long as it dont go into aug. lol what i dont like is working 70-90 days straight in the winter time take the good with the bad where else can i make a k a day with my grade 10 education life in the patch lol
  7. hey guys was going to float the bow tomorrow for the first time this yr from policemens to carseland was wondering how much floating weeds are in the river i find them a real pain in the azz still going to go just wondering what kind of setup i should use drys or streamers or is the hopper dropper setup working yet thanks for the info
  8. Guys this is my take I have worked in the patch all my life all most 20 yrs. 15 yrs on a drilling rig i have seen the ups and downs in the patch. Do mostly because of prices for oil and gas things have been really slow since march becuse the price of nat gas sucks. The gov should have done this royalty bs 18-24 months ago when the price of gas was at record highs and there would be no bitching from oil companys. I have heard all the numbers of lose jobs here is what i can tell you rigs working in ab 206 rigs = 4120 jobs 20 guys per rig rigs not working in ab 504= 10080 jobs this is just on the drilling rig what about all the service hands ie cementers,service rig hands,pipeliners,frac serices,truck drivers when they say 30000 people are out of work i thing they are pretty close. In my option I dont think this slow down is from the royaly bs its because the price of gas is low the royaly bs is not helping matters thats my take.
  9. Now thats what i call loss circulation LOL that cool
  10. I work fora small drillig contractor and things are real bad there i have not worked since the end of april we mostly drilled for gas. The company keeps saying things are going to pick up but when. I have tried to get another drilling job but no one is hiring the drilling contractors that have work they have lots of guys sitting around just waiting for a call to go to work. The only job i got was to work in the states its sounds like a good job but i have to wait till my work visa is ready that wount be ready till the end of oct so i sit and wait till then sure glad i didnt piss this boom away this time lol
  11. for me its got to be john cougar and dire straits in the mid 80s and george thorgood bad to the bone tour them were the days what i can remember of them lol

    the last time i was out fishing i broke my rod right at the second eye from the tip was wondering is it repairable. I have had this rod for number of years now its a browning gold medalion its a 8wt. Or do i have to break down and get a new outfit. I only flyfish the bow and a few trout lakes. If i have to get a new outfit can a guy get a decent combo for under a couple hundred bucks.
  14. Glenbow I was heading out there tomorrow to try my luck what would you suggest i chuck at them. I myself have no idea what the heck i am doing but i have fun trying maybe i might get lucky lol
