And the fish (and their habitat), always lose!!

Don't forget the corruption of politicians/governments!! All gov'ts & politicians are corrupt (goes with the territory) but to varying extents/degrees! I'm sure one of the reasons why we haven't heard anything about the devastation in the Niger Delta (and even in Saudi) is b/c the oil companies pay the gov't officials off!! Couldn't get away with that (in the case of "the Gulf") in the USA! P

I'd say that could be true if it was sent by a person that the reciever doesn't know (e-bay or from a specific shop/business, etc.)... But if it's from a "personal" friend or family member the argument could be made that it is/was in fact a gift (whether or not it actually is - taking personal ethics out of the equation, of course). P

I'd say during the run off of '05 it would not have been safe (familiar with the river or not!)! But that's just me (former white water rafting guide & 12 years as a lifeguard & water safety instructor). P

Appearantly it works well!! Looks like an awesome trip! Cheers, P

Steve, What's that thing in front of the egg sucking leech? P

You think the Gulf Oil spill is bad! Check this out (betcha you didn't even know of this?! - I didn't!)... http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/may/3...ger-delta-shell

So do you just ship to this place and them drive down and pick it up?! P

Try Eckardt's Tecumseh Mountain Resort. http://www.telusplanet.net/public/eckardt/ They have cabins and a campground and were pretty reasonable (even have a stocked pond). The guy that runs/owns the place was nice, though a little arrogant... P

What if a sponsor has a specific brand that they carry/sell? Are they still allowed to list a particular brand of products?! P

Yup!But depending if it is new or used you might still have to pay GST...

I'm concerned as to why you say they (your rods) are on their last legs... A decent rod should last a life time (if you take care of it) unless you abuse them. Maybe look at getting them refurbished (Colin - CDone will do a great job and is very reasonable with what he would charge) if that's what they need and put the $ towards a decent 7 or 8 wt. Just a thought! P

I just pruchased a Snowbee XSD 780 cartridge reel at Southbow.. Haven't tried it out yet but they had a demo for me to try (7 wt line) which I tested on my 8 wt rod and it seemed to balance it nicely. The other thing that intrigued me with the XSD 780 is that it comes with 5 cartridges, is disc drag & large arbor at a decent price of $200!! I can let you try if you like (but not before i do ) P

x2!

Check out my xs Warrdell's, as well: http://calgary.kijiji.ca/c-buy-and-sell-sp...QAdIdZ196033841 Peter

Yeah I thought of the CD sleeves... This would be for a combo of mono leaders and sink tips... Thanks, P

What does every one use to keep their leaders organized?! Looking for "non traditional" ideas (i.e. not the commercially available ones)... Thanks, Peter

Checks in the mail, I hope!! LoL P

I think that's what a business license will cost you?! P

So Mike, You are finally are admitting you are a geek!! P P.S. Welcome to the club

Didn't some quack on Oprah predict the world would end this year?! P

Yeah nothing about his reprimand! P

Yeah I would say that's a better way to put it!! P
