Anybody got any tips for launching a boat at Horseshoe bay for a day of fishing? I called Sewells and their ramp is open 24hrs a day, launching is $12. But they don't have parking. I thought I could just launch early and park in the 3hr parking on the street but all the signs say no...

I recently bought a used MR3...the guy said it was a spare reel that got little use, and the outside cosmetic condition was very, very good with only a few tiny nicks. I'm sure that I'll contribute many more nicks in my ownership. Anyway, I bought a maintenance kit (oil & grease) and thought...

I need a gaff. I'm planning to buy the Peetz gaff, but before I do I thought I'd check what the consensus is about gaffs. Is there a favourite shape/bend to the hook portion? Some other good quality product that I should consider? I see Scotty makes a stainless gaff too, but for similar cost...

When I was a kid we used to go fishing for shiners every weekend when the family was around the water. I've been out with my own kid a few times this winter and couldn't find any shiners! I googled and it seems that over winter they go deeper or further offshore, but nothing I've found...

A few weeks ago I was working at the coal port at Roberts Bank. I was near the water and noticed a boat sitting right in the kelp just off the beach of the terminal, and while I was looking at the boat I happened to see one of the occupants bring a large rockfish aboard the vessel. The guy...

I've got a bunch of fencing and landscaping to do. Some of the fencing will be fiddly stuff so I just need to buy loose boards and posts, and other fencing will be posts with pre-fab panels. Pressure treated posts and cedar boards and posts. I also need some pressure treated 4x6 landscape...

I currently fish with Diawa M-One UTD 400 reels which seem to work OK. I'm wondering about the more "premium" reels like Islander, Amundson, Trophy, etc What are the differences between the Islander models (MR2, MR3, TR3, MR2LA, etc). How do the Islander models compare to the Amundson and...

Happy Birthday RainCity!

Thinking about buying a kicker and trying to do some research before the boat show. What kicker is quietest in the 9.9/15hp category? The Yamaha 9.9HT has the lowest gear ratio, but does this mean you have to run the motor at higher RPMs? The Honda has the biggest displacement and lowest...
