  1. I think a$ 200.00 vice can last a lifetime. It also depends on use and abuse. I have a Peak rotary for 3 years after discussing this same topic 3 years ago. It is, as described in a vice review, Bombproof. Jaws, are the integral part of the system and I think over time some may wear out. I consider this to be normal for all equipment fishing related or not. IMO A lot of the vices mentioned are quality and will last. Test drive as some have stated. Cheers rob
  2. Russ Looking to buy a new sink tip as my current one has gone 3 years and is cracking and not casting as it once did. You know my streamer rod ( 7 wt. sage VPS). I have a SA wet tip express type 4. Want something a little faster sink rate and am open to options. Are you happy with your sink tip? Is this a SA? What are some of you others using? Thanks ps. How is the baby?
  3. Piggy bank, top drawer.... oh.... to many details...
  4. Fix your own. Easy! Most shops cary a generic kit with the adhesive for 20-25 bucks. My advice, let the glue set a while as recommended and then attach the felts. I have done this years ago before owning aquastealth Simms and it worked fine. Good luck.
  5. If you are going to bug someone, I think you got the right guy. I very much enjoyed all his works and own them all.
  6. Being a habs fan I can say I am not biased. Favorite recent player is a LEAF ( Wendel). My opinion of the greatest ever is a BRUIN (Bobby Orr).
  7. It is good being a HABS fan these days although over the past week they showed inconsistency. Always look forward to Leafs vs. Habs. I will say this, Sundin is an awesome force everrtime I watch him. Not bad considering I hate Leafs!
  8. Good points made and I agree when it is done tastefully!
  9. Total of 8. A few years in junior high, many years ago. Since I moved out West 10 years ago and discovered the gems ( bow, crow, etc. ) I have another 6 good years in. Great pastime in winter.
  10. Thanks Lundvike and Diesel. Tube is in and I am picking up tonite. Will go with the HDMI included in the PVR for the time being. Later, might take your advice and try the shop you mentioned. Ales are good for saturday hockey!!! Cheers
  11. Garage insulated? I would put a few 2x4 under to keep directly of the concrete slab and as others said, it should be fine? 2 freezers???? your garage is bigger than mine!
  12. Dido on the advice from Toolman regarding Westwinds, Gord, and Frog Hair. Westwinds and Fishtales gets all my money.
  13. " Love is like a butterfly..." I am 37 but, my parents listened to all the oldies.
  14. Good for you. It is nice to pass that savings on to your DAD.
  15. A lot of this would depend on the spot itself. If it is a long run or a "spot" on a big river ( BOW), with a lot of fish, I do not think it would factor as much. If it were a smaller river with less fish then, yes, it would factor in hurting that particular spot. Again there is the factor of how often is this spot being worked. Then, maybe the people that fish this place often are catching nada. Doubtful if thet are there that often.
  16. I also felt these rates were to high also for the amount of work involved. However, as with many things there are choices and competion.You can try bargaining. What about WE LIST? I do not have the answers but the commisssion is crazy! IMO
  17. Tpetley The PVR I have is a Bell as I have 2 dishes through Bell already. It comes with a HDMI. It also has the cables you mentioned. GO HABS GO! Differnece between flames and a bra. Bra has 2 cups!!!! Being an Easterner I love the ol habs but do cheer and tip one back for the flames!
  18. You can't go wrong with the Sony you bought. 3 different salesmen told me they would rate it first. The Sharp I bought is an 07 and also has the 120hz. and 4m/s. I went with the Sharp as it is also highly rated and I knew someone at Sharp Canada ie.( discount)
  19. Did you buy a shadow box or make one? Thinking of this myself. Where can you buy one?
