Because of hockey and curling commitments and the fact that the cottage is on an island we only go up 4 or 5 times during freeze up. When not able to go fishing up there, I fill in the need to fish by going to my local Lake Ontario tributaries, rivers and streams for anything. My house backs onto conservation lands that contain a trout filled creek. I go to Simcoe ice fishing 5-6 times a season. I feed the deer over my back fence with pumpkins and my kitchen compost. I have a game camera up and over the years have recognized many deer as they grow. And ...I have chickens.
Living the dream,good for you Fish.Quote:

You know - I like Jumbo perch over walleye any day of the week. Most under rated fish, that and poor mans lobster (Bourbot, Ling, slim fish). All the years I kicked a Ling back down the hole Walleye ice fishing..I regret after cooking one.Quote:

A question for the preppers. How much fuel do you keep on hand to run generators? The reason I ask is if we have a complete power outage for any length of time, once your out of fuel, then what is the plan.
This was well covered in this thread:Quote:

Speaking for myself, I have a small Honda 2000 and another old 1500 run by an Briggs n Statton. The 1500 I wouldn't even consider running long term. I don't plan to run the household on the Honda, I'm already set up at my cabin to not need electricity and at my home, I would just drain the plumbing to save the water system. (I am rural, running off a jet pump.) As for gas, I would only use the gen set to keep the freezer going for a few weeks, running intermittently. At any given time, I usually have 4-6 cans of gas (80-120 litres). If the grid was still down and no gas available when I was about half through my supply, I would begin emptying the freezer and preserving what I could.Quote:
