I am guilty of not wearing mine always. I do put it on when it is cold or the conditions are rough in the bass Boat.

That is great man. I am so glad to see it snow up there. It means it hit the ground before it got down here.

I love the documentries that pose the question in a very serious way at the begining and finish with." While we have not been able to find a shred of evidence that supports this outlandish claim we still spend a lot of money proving nothing" (in your best Robin Leech Voice)

I have had lots of things that go bump in the night adventures but they all had an explanation that someone else explained to me. The fun of it is whether or not you believe them.

How did he miss the stinger hook? I feel your pain I had a Snakehead on that I just know would have been a record but he tossed me at the boat. I found out later that week a buddy of mine hooked a new state record two days later from the area I had the hook up.

Everyone should know this one it is CLOWN. So since I guessed it what did I win ?

Art

It's the OZARKS, folks----remember!!!

Yeaaa everyone knows this has happened no where else but there.....

Happy Thanksgiving to all and I am thankful for many things including my Friends up North.

Art

You know now that you got this really nice toy to play in the snow it will be a dry winter right. Very nice bud.

I counted 183 on the bottom half but then again my Pc isnt the best.

 

183 x 2= 366

 

Just baord thats all..

Yes but can you see the dark blue one?

Art

We can get it to work again it would be around $7000.oo. I would even throw in a new color matching seat.

Art

That's outrageous I want to get a hold of the Plumber that gave him that discount on a toilet.

Art

Should we keep this one? "It's got two eyes don't it." " It will fit between two crackers" was my Uncle Bennies answer when fishing for perch. He really loved his perch.

It would be best to run the engine till you have stabilizer in the fuel circuit. It will prevent varnish from forming and protect it as well from corrosion.

Art

You Southerners and your "pumps" lol.. When I cant carry the buckets up from the dock, my camp days are over lol.

I defy you to show me a photo of you with a bucket of water with leaves on the trees.lol

The hardness of water is not corrosive in most cases. Hardness is an indication of Lime or minerals which are neutralizing the PH. The corrosion of the Tank can often be traced to grounding of the electrical system to the plumbing (dielectrolysis) and friction loss from water moving thru the pipes over time. The cutting off of the water supply and the draining of the system to prevent freeze damage is the best method of keeping you from having a surprise when you arrive. The plastic tanks in my opinion have other faults that make them no better than the metal ones. I have replaced them due to cracked fittings, leak in the diaphragm and pressure stress cracks in the assemble.

Awesome fish Mike but really what possess you all to think 42 F is water to stand in brrrr. I used to Race Jetskies in that temp range but it was in a drysuit and we engineered the heated engine water to spray on our gloved hands to keep them from freezing to the grips.

Art

I track them in a lake and found they move out to secondary points and suspend. I find they mix in with crappie not so much as species mixing but environment. I slow troll micro jigs tipped with meal worms and will find pods of both feeding very lightly. They are between 5 and 15 feet deep in water as deep as 35ft which is the deepest spot in the lake. They will move very little both up and down to get to a bait and the strike window is small when it is this cold. We rarely get a complete ice over and never strong enough to ice fish down here so my seasons are not as severe and our time lines are different.

Art

We have the snakehead in one of the local rivers I fish and I have caught and eaten a few of them. They are a firm fleshed fish that is light and white in color. The truth is it does resemble chicken I am not ruling out he was being flippied but it is a fair description of the flesh. I also agree that we don't need the fish in any waters that it hasn't already contaminated because it is a dominating species.

Art

I had chicken salad and soup for dinner and a big ole slice of pie would be excellent.

Art

Good for you when are you sending the second one to me?

Art

Good info thanks for posting it. I hope it results in forward thinking and progress to solutions.

Art

I am happy to hear you are getting stronger every day. Don't over work yourself slow and steady will win the race.

Art

I had a whiskey jack once around the house down here. We used to feed him and give him a bottle and send him on his merry way.

Art

If it makes you feel better I will tow your boat but I am 12 hours away. lol

Art

We all are sorry for your loss Roger. We all wish we had a magic word that would heal but we don't,instead we can say a prayer and hold the memories that she has left behind and keep her spirit alive for the years to come.
