Without doing any maintenance on the reel, no reel will last you the rest of your life, unless you're planning on booking out at the end of the summer.
Bearings and drag washers have to be maintained and the factory doesn't put enough grease or oil in them to last. :P

Haven't heard from anyone yet so they may not be a regular on this site.
Keep your ears open when you're on the ice in case you hear of anyone who may have lost one.
There was a couple who I am sure were the ones using it that day. She was in a white snow suite.

This is a timely post as I have been thinking of ways to try and make it easier to pull these types of sleds. I have a Fabrill clam type sled and found it can be quite a slog sometimes t to pull the heavier and deeper the snow gets. What I first tried was paste wax the bottom like we did as kids for...

Just what we need on the water. A high speed craft where you intentionally limit your visibility when driving all out.

After using a multitude of oils, for the last few years I've been using Lucas in all my 2 stroke motors: 30 hp evinrude, snowblower, auger, weedeater and chainsaw and have always put stabilizer in the gas with every mix. Even run all the old mixed gas in my 4 stroke lawnmower. Every engine has never...

Remove the connections to the battery before charging. If completely dead it may take up to 14-18 hours to full charge. Basic charging guidelines are to charge the battery two hours for every three hours of use. Although the charger is low output, it can still damage the battery if left on for exten...

Petrie Island Ice

Checked out all the bays this afternoon. The water is high and there is some flooding on the lower points i.e. there is water right up to the gate at Walley Bay. There is brown slush about 6 feet wide around the edges of the ice in crappy bay so be careful, especially with the high water, the levels...

Were you aware?

This should stir up some conversation. A CO recently stated that the QC MNR does not recognize the Ontario Conservation License when fishing in QC water on the Ottawa because there is no equivalent in their regulations. So, if you are fishing over the boundary line on the Ottawa in Quebec waters, yo...

Rapala Schematics?

I've been looking everywhere for a free schematic for a Rapala RSC 30LC.
Can't find any schematics for Rapala anywhere on line.
Anyone know the secret?
