Thanks to you all in advance.

Hey Bob, do you know what the going price is for them things ?...

I can sure use one, for both the turkey hunt and for the Quebec spring bear hunt. Also as was mentioned above, it would come in handy for the archery moose hunting season... Not to mention it would also come in really handy for fishing them brookies!... And we all know the best time to be out fishing for them is when them bugs are out full force attacking us with all they've got!!...

Thanks

gad,

Sorry about my rudeness..

You can do a web search by typing in "bug proof clothing" you will find all kinds of different brands/styles of what you're looking for.

Hope you find what you're looking for...

take care,

LW

Rino suit is probably the best. Plus a Therma Cell $37.00 US

Thank you all.
I have find some bug suits on cabelas.com

A little expensive, but it must worth the price.

Bob, (Armadias)

I just called Canadian Tire in Kanata and they told me they don't have any ThemaCell's at that store either???...

Where did you get this info from?

Thanks

I've never been big on using any kind of chemicals for hunting mammals.

I had a client last year who had one of them ThermaCELLS which he was using while bear hunting last spring, which I was skeptical about myself because bears have a very, very good sense of smell...

Well he proved me wrong big time by shooting the biggest bear that year after passing on about 5 bears before he took his shot on a big boar, and he told me he had his on all the time he was out in the stand. Of course the stand was downwind of the bait barrel...
