Auguste (my real name) Occupation: Consultant mostly to the Canadian federal government . . . health and social programs Married: Cecile, two children, and three grandchildren Location: Home in Quebec Canada and slip at Pirates Cove in the Outerbanks of NC, near Manteo and Wanchese Hobbies: Fishing and golf when too windy to fish (have a good wind game)

Yup . . . it is definatley different Expect Marlin Boats to make an offer to buy it

We are sitting back and watching We are studying the situation And then out of nowhere . . . we strike Glad you accepted the job

Maybe all that stealth technology has gone passed their ability to see other ships But most important nobody seriously hurt, and that is what counts

Much appreciated It will help focus on the regional stuff, and if someone is planning a trip they can go to that forum Great stuff

Ah ha HotSpot has moderator access and he is building forums with Wiley Good stuff . . . I am sure Wiley will appreciate the help - - - - - I fish out of Pirates Cove in the outer banks I have a slip but no home there Also looking for a boat to replace my current boat Cheers

Most first aid kits are for at home and on-shore use What do you need special for on the water use . . . other than what is in the typical high quality first aid kit you have at home or in your car? Pliers/tools to remove hooks stuck in you . . . and an instruction sheet Pain killing cream for serious sun burns What else?

Super tough sun screen A spare cap with string to tie it on and a beak to protect your eyes A bottle (stick) to apply disinfectant over cuts A bottle of stuff to put on burns Water bottles A lanyard to keep the ditch bag close A few cylume sticks Six flares that floeat and smoke One of those floating red/orange ribbons that are 25 ft long and you deploy Hand held VHF radio Personal EPIRB A spare inflatable vest in case you did not have yours on Remember . . . it has to fit into the bag

Only if it was packaged in an aluminium case Good idea if friendly sites would participate

That would work for me also

Darn . . . however, lucky no serious injuries Hmmmmm . . . and a bump in the night causes the price of oil to increase . . . hmmmm . . . must be cause of the shortage caused by the 25,000 gallons of fuel that leaked

Hi If you handle the "Island" portion travel and RB shirts etc. even half as well as you ran THT (we know that Wiley was just a figure head ) then it will be fantastic. PM me as soon as you have some shirts available Thanks

While not an official NC resident, it is my second home and I do have a slip for my boat at Pirate's Cove Can we have a region forum that encompasses this general area as we do much of the same type of fishing? It would make us slightly more northern fishermen and women feel alittle more at home? Maybe include north of Virginia and south of South Carolina . . . but the idea is this group fishes similar grounds and similar species Thanks

My great grandfather told me that when the sun shines it shines for everyone This is my opinion . . . I hope that some of you will share it I subscribe to many forums . . . I will never limit myself to just one . . . each has its strengths . . . each has its weaknesses . . . I will continue posting at other forums . . . and I hope to visit here and learn I believe that if this forum is to do well, you have to stop bashing other forums and slapping each other on the back about it . . . there is no need for all of this bitterness I also believe that the sooner you stop bashing other forums, and the sooner you start posting good questions and providing useful information here on reel Boating, it will be Reel Boating that benifits Wiley has always been a stand-up guy for me and I appreciated that I hope that I will learn from this forum as I have learned from the other forums Please take the upper road . . . stop bashing . . . make this a useful and enjoyable boating and fishing forum I supported THT when I joined many years ago and I will continue there I will support Wiley and this forum with the hope that it becomes a strong healthy forum . . . heck I will even buy a wheel or rudder or anchor so that Wiley can upgrade the server Auguste

Wiley Need a spell checker PLEASE and SOON

for me, the rods are a lottle too close and I have to work at separating and understanding . . . the larger picks bit with more white space would work for me

We all made suggestions about what forums we liked in the previous version . . . and once in a while Wiley liked our ideas . . . so why waste time . . . here are my suggestions Bikini Village (sandbar) Yes Bilge and Politics NO What do you guys think? Wiley . . . just can't change old bad habits

Bikini Village (sandbar) Yes Bilge and Politics NO

Hi I like the ones with the pics because the detail is so much sharper and I can print the pics I need and bring them with me when I go to do the work on my boat The series you did on THT a while back were great and I am sure the members here will love them

Hi guys . . . I'm back like a bad cold . . . you can't get rid of me

Nice to hear that you found yourself a new home and making yourself comfortable Will be here for a while until you guys start beating up on this old Canadian
