Okay.. so here's a crude drawing since i'm so artistic: Green vehicle was going to park in one of the stalls to the right, but realized they didn't have enough room to make the turn. Started backing up.. meanwhile, beige vehicle has driven into the parking lot and is not paying attention. Bump. Green vehicle was backing up at a little bit of an angle in relation to the beige vehicle, but nearly straight. This is the supposed damage caused by a 2" trailer hitch (without the ball installed) just this past Friday morning, Dec. 12. A couple things have me suspicious.. 1. You can clearly see quite a bit of rust around the crack.. can that much rust form in 5 days? 2. There is NO paint transferred on the hitch of the green vehicle at all. So scuff marks, no scratches, nothing. 3. Not 100% sure about this one, but I'm not convinced that a completely flat square hitch could make that cut at the angle of impact..? My gut tells me this person is trying to have the green vehicle pay for old damages. Thoughts? I think the next step would be to take a measuring tape and measure from the ground to the hitch on the green vehicle, and from the ground to the crack on the bumper..

Okay.. before I tell you anything about what this picture is, I'd like you to give me an educated guess as to how old you think this damage is, and what angle you think the impact was that caused it? Oh.. and as far as I know the dumpster had nothing to do with it..

If Chicago scored seven less goals.. we would've tied them! Sooooo close!

Pretty soon he'll be fishing one dry only...

"30 kilometers below zero" hahahahhaHHAAHAHA! I don't care where yer from.. that's funny right there.

That place looks sweet!

Nothing!

Touche'.

Great pics!!

Yes.. yes it did!

Good ones guys! Keep em coming! You brought up a few of mine that I couldn't think of at the time.. Tiger Trout and New Zealand brownie are on my list too. As are Atlantic Salmon (especially seeing as I grew up there but wasn't really into fishing then). Haven't had a chance to make it out to Bear Pond or Wedge Pond yet.. so Grayling are still on my list too!

Fortress Lake Brook Trout, Alaska Salmon, BC Steelhead, Tarpon.. these are a few of the things I'd like to try in the future. I'm just curious of some of the accomplishments, or destinations, that you guys/gals have on your 'bucket list'?

Was checked twice in my first year.. haven't been checked in 2 years since.

Well I would hope so, there, ex-guide! Psssft!

On the Bow River. What do I win?

ggp/crogg/tgo - Excellent! I'm looking forward to getting out there with it! Silverdoctor - ha! maybe I can rig up just the tip section somehow! SJW - Sounds like the voice of experience there? Toolman - Some day.. some day. and surprisingly enough.. he's got all dad's looks, and all mom's personality!

BFR Dragonfly 355 with WF6F SA Sharkskin.. I'll most likely replace the BFR with a Pflueger Trion 1956 in the summer.

Wife picked me up today at the Heritage Dr. C-Train station.. she made the mistake of pulling in to the "buses only" section. So she stops and we quickly switch spots.. meanwhile this bus driver comes driving in, blares the horn at us, and then proceeds to angle the bus across in front of us. Every time I tried to drive around, she drove forward a bit so I couldn't. For shite sakes woman! The wife made a mistake! Is it really necessary to proceed to block us so we can't get out of there?! Especially while there's customers standing there in a frickin blizzard waiting for you to come pick them up? What a childish display! I wanted to talk to her but my wife wouldn't let me...

Probably pulling people over for doing u-turns when there's no traffic in sight.

whoops... pick up your drawers there Kipper!

Agreed. Same thing happened for you guys with Roman Turek if I remember correctly...

Great as always Jay! Man those were some gorgeous brutes!!

Life has been just TOO crazy busy.. and with no end in sight, I've decided to give up this wonderful sport that I've just recently come to love so much! ... ... Okay, I'm kidding. It's not THAT day. But THIS day.. I was told by a fellow FFC member that I shouldn't feel like a hyprocrite, because it's a natural progression we all go through. My new Bow River Rod (I just couldn't pass up those sales!): And by the looks of things.. it's soon going to be getting a whole lot more expensive! Now if you'll excuse me.. I have to go look into buying "a honda".

Has a huge tidal wave hit NYC yet?
