Calm down. These vests are $37.47 at Walmart but they're sold to government institutions at the special volume discount price of $300.

Usually it's an old chunk of weed or debris from the previous season.

Put the lower unit in water, power it up and run a weedeater type line through it from the top.

Four years ago I replaced the 22 year old Inglis washer and drier We had. They owed me nothing after 22 years of 12 loads a week. I replaced them with front load Maytags..it's only been 4 years but they're doing 12 loads weekly also and I'm happy with them so far.

He can at least tell you which one to buy if you have to get a new one. He knows his stuff.

Mine's done. Thanks Ron on behalf of everyone here for another excellent initiative.

I should be there Saturday and Sunday...no fixed itinerary that I know of.

Thanks everyone. It's still hard to believe how much help is available here. With Emails, personal messages and of course this thread, I've received tons of valuable information to help me out. Thanks again and I should be able to answer the rest of the messages some time this morning.

You really should read a few of the other threads before posting.

K...didn't get off there though...straight into Montebello at the end of the line.

HA! I certainly did but had NO idea you were there!

Excellent Wayne. Thanks for highlighting it for us.

Yes, that's the stuff. Thanks.

Thanks Aaron! Nice to hear from you. Ok Phil, now I have to go shopping again?

Lew's trailer is almost new. The bedliner, POR15 or whatever is probably the best protection for a trailer for which looks don't matter. It'd be a shame to hide a nice looking trailer under some kind of a truck undercoat. It'll depend on what he wants to achieve.

Very nice display! Lotsa good times there for sure!

Lew, I think your best bet would be to get yourself some protective film. Apply it to the vulnerable areas. 3M makes some lines of it but several companies make or distribute the stuff. Google "painted trailer protection", the second and third results look interesting.

That's a good idea Steve, thanks.

Pop by his place and check the guy out. Sometimes good things do happen. Not everyone is a criminal.

No, he edited his post.

I tie 130lb leaders all the time. The question was 50lb braid to 80 lb fluoro.

Here's a better one Mark.....your teamates are also my teamates cause we're both on the same team.

Thanks Mike I really appreciate the offer. I'll be with some others there so I don't yet know what the itinerary is like but I'll let you know as soon as I have something. And your " lil guy" is starting to make me sick y'know that? Thanks Mike, I'll let you know really quickly.

Well I can't get any GLtrout for the tourney from here so this weekend I'm hitting the lower Niagara. Anyone one got any hot tips for me? Keep it clean. I imagine I'll be drifting but hey, I'm a complete noob at this so any help would be most welcome and certainly appreciated. Thanks folks.

But then the easiest way would be to make or buy 80lb fluoro leaders. They sell them in 12" lengths ...swivel at one end and a snap at the other. About $6. each to buy.
