  1. Thats a real generous offer I hope he takes you up on it. Living so far away from everyone I miss being able to just jump into the truck and go visiting. Art
  2. Actually I am listed as a Root Admin. I however smelled funny so Roy put me outside for awhile. It sometimes seems "one" of the mod's are picking on someone but rest assured it has been discussed and the actions of "one" is backed by all of us. Art
  3. Are we back to seatbelts or shall we pull the plug on this puppy ? I'll give it a few more responses before deciding. Art
  4. Go to their website and download the latest software. It has updates that have made my hds7 more accurate and refreshes quicker. Art
  5. Sorry to hear this Brian just be assured it was the right call. Art
  6. Im still workin but I am saving up enough money so I can buy Roy and dress him up in bells and a hat and fetch a stick when I throw it. I'm a simple man with simple pleasures... Art
  7. I got one for you... send a check to "I got the smart reply for roy" 123 Main St. anywhere Canada 2l5o3. I'll email it back to you in 2 weeks after the check clears. Mornin folks Art

  9. Another vote for full sized truck. While more in gas it will be less in wear and tear. I do have to preface this with gas is for now cheaper in the USA than up North though. Art
  10. Hey Roy I know how you can fund the new playground for the kidlettes. Art
  11. For the land of the free and the home of the brave. Amen Art
  12. Y'all are cookin dem wrong. Treat them just like you would fish "deep fried and sanctified". Art
  13. Brings back the memory of my creepy crawler maker with the arm burning finger cooking features we all grew to love make scars with. Art
  14. Deet 100 keeps the bugs from eating my Southern sweet blood. I know it is bad for the body so it only gets applied on the clothing. A nice bug suit completes the fashion statement for y'alls comedic enjoyment. Funny thing is I never need either down here were I live and play though it seems Canada has just a few more of them hungry little buggers. Art
  15. While having the correct amount of rope out, it is more important to have the correct chain attached to the anchor. The chain has 2 functions one is abrasion the other is it gives the anchor the correct lay for the flukes to dig in. 6 to 9 ft or 8 lb. is recommended then the rope is attached using between a 5 to 7 : 1 ratio per foot of rode for a good overnight set. I have a 28ft cabin cruiser that worked well until I replaced it as an articulated plow anchor due to the bottom I set in (mud/sand). Art
  16. Im sorry to hear this Cris while painful it was the right decision. Art
  17. I am running the hds 7 lss1 unit and it is a world of difference on what you see under the boat. That said the fish image could be a fish that is moving thru the beam. I know that I have been over a school of fish drifting thru the area and have gotten some amazing views underwater. I then spooked the fish and the images elongate kind of like smoke off a fire view. I am not knocking the unit it is still the best view you can get without a camera and clear water. Art
  18. You must have been fishing by the nuclear power plant Dave. Nice fish.... Art
  19. I think all has been said here. bedtime for this one. Art
  20. A great loss to all of us who touch a keyboard or listen to a song. RIP Steve Art
  21. I think Daves on the right track better safe than sorry. Art
  22. Bill you can check Iboats for some leads and also search for bass fishing forums here in the USA they have some great deals going on. Remember to check for titles for both the boat and the trailer and get Bill of Sale for each unit. I know you all have some tax reasons for them being separate. Art
  23. Go get um you got 4 rods to use now. You will find you are spoiled after awhile and will fish with 3 and 4 rods rigged at a time. I have usually 4 rods rigged one with top water, one with spinner bait, one with senco and the last one has a crank bait. You can then as you move from spot to spot figure out what the fish want in that area as the areas change without retying lures. Art
  24. True statement Cliff I have seen lots of people step up and help their friends here. Art
  25. Glad to get that reel in a place were it can be used correctly. I used it maybe three times and since trolling is not the way we fish it was more complicated than the job called for. Enjoy and post a picture of the first fish it catches. Art
