I read a few of the negative comments on large cruiser owners. As a cruiser owner I do watch out for smaller boats and slow down to reduce my wake.

The MNR were on the Big Rideau last Sunday. They didn't come by my boat, it wouldn't have done any good as there was nothing, did I say nothing in the live well or anywhere else.

When you are catching fish, the cold is not as severe. Nice catch and it seems you were having a great time.

With my fishing prowess, I need as much instruction by the experienced as possible.
