  1. Living in Cranston, I will steer my boys away from Dave's in case he has an ACCIDENT. Unless he is giving out cold ones to the adults and FFC members!!!
  2. I decided that I would give the cables I got with the PVR a shot when the TV lands. You are right, hard to tell if you can't compare both. I did a lot of research when I chose this TV. My wife says I did more here than when we built a house 5 years ago! It is a 2007 model and has the highest rated frame speed which will come in handy for watching sports especially hockey. ( Go Habs Go) Better be good for the price tag!
  3. I do use 2 computer sites. How do I clear/clean my cashe? thanks
  4. I know someone asked this a while back ( Bloom I think ). Whenever I am off the computer I have to log in again with ###################### password. What am I doing wrong? I have the checkmark to remember password. Help!
  5. Yes, Monster is a brand name and does make HDMI. I am buying HDMI, but not spending it on monster.
  6. That is priceless. Next year you will be up to 3.
  7. Lynn Could not ask for the deal with the HDMI and tv as I got the TV for a great discount knowing someone from Sharp Canada. Still looking into what/where I will buy the HDMI. Thanks
  8. I hear ya about the reduced fishing with the wee ones. I now have 2 boys 4 and 18 months. i have been out a bit this past summer and fall so I can't complain. It will pay off though as I refer to them as my future ROWERS and TYERS!
  9. Thanks again all. Nick0, I will go check this out for sure. I was suspect of the Monster brand as many said they were good, but way overpriced. BTW Weedy1, I hear ya, and I own 3 Sage's already, but could always find someplace for the $$$ I plan to save in cables at the local fishin shops!
  10. Thanks to both of you. TPetey, what kind did you buy at the Bay/ would you consider them good?
  11. Asking some advice from those who have done the BIG TV thing. Have a 52" Sharp Aquos LCD landing in about a week and the PVR/Bell Satellite ready to roll. I know a bit about this tech stuff, but am asking those who bought the MONSTER cables or what others bought for the HD experience. A lot of reviews I read say many people can not tell a difference between middle of the road stuff and the high ends. The price is insane for the cables but I am not going to cheap out after paying $$$$$$$$$$$ for the tube. Peoples thoughts? Thanks in advance.
  12. Nice report. It is something else to add to the list.
  13. Often the burns are a result from the coating ( AST on SA) being worn off over time.
  14. UPS was no good to me on ordering from ebay. Thought I was saving almost 170 bucks on a Galvan reel and then got dinged with 70 dollar brokerage fee at my door upon deliviery. This , on top of the extra I already added for shipping. be careful.
  15. Pumps about 8 bucks. Look like a turkey baster and do help when it is slow.
  16. Also a big fan of the Frog Hair and have been using it for 2 years now. Saw a demo on it's strenth and elasticity at the Expo a few years back and was "hooked". Climax is what I use exclusively for nymphing. I tie my own leaders ( Maxima tapered down to Climax)
  17. It has been a while. As a matter of fact, there was no Legagy island the last time I was there. Do you turn on HW #24 and head for the river. How about getting to the river? I remember a dirt roar. take the last right and look for access close to Legacy??? Anyone I appreciate this as i am heading out saturday. thanks
  18. Good job. All the advice in the world is good but only through " on the Job" sessions will one have success.
  19. Dutch I agree with a lot that you say about using the dry and not the bobber thing, BUT, this is the Bow. It is alike to many waters but still very unique. The Bow went from excellent dry fly fishing in the 70's, to good in the 80''s to inconsistent in the present. ( Mclennan books) That said however, this year has been an excellent season for dries. The best in 10 years according to one shop owner. I say this and I am not even a dry purist on the Bow. ( most of my dry fishing is south, crow, liv, oldman,elk, etc.) Having success does not always mean catching, but, it sure does help with the newbies and oldies. Lets face it, when we take kids out they get HOOKED when you land anything. My little guy also just likes the experience of getting out but, I think you all know what I mean. The Bow being UNIQUE needs to have a fisherperson who is very addaptive to what is required on that given day. I fish nymphs, steamers and dries. I bet anyone who fishes the Bow a lot would agree that in order to have the most success, teach a newbie to nymph first. ( on this river) You make a good point about the dry for following water trends and drag, but as mentioned by BC, the indicator will also permit this.
  20. Damn nice pics as always Clive! When the water gets so low down there I never seem to do so well and have not made the trek south in a few years during October. You got me thinking about a trip soon.
  21. I 100% agree with the last two statements.
  22. Rickr Did your wife make you A.) get married or B.) lock the door Just kidding as I read the last part!!!!
