  1. those are real pretty Brian. If you need a set of bearings and they are hard to ship to Canada let me know and I will order and repackage in the USPS route for you. Art
  2. I would call you a liar but I have seen to many crock shoe prints in the snow up North. Art
  3. Here is a company that I have purchased bearings from to replace the ones in my fishing reels. They are miles ahead of what comes stock in the brand name reels we all use. They have a code that is good till December 31st. They are not associated with OFC or myself except as a quality product. https://www.bocabearings.com/products/bearing-applications/fishing-reel-bearings?ProductType=2 The discount code is BALLIDAYS Art
  4. Ahh the whole dramatic metric system -38 C that is only -36 F .... Personally when I inhale through my nose and my boogers freeze I'm heading back indoors. lol. Art
  5. Very cool that is a game changer up North where the water is clear enough to see stuff. Down South we have way to much silt and sediment for them to be viable. Art
  6. Doug it is a very old saying dating back to an authors famous book from Mark Twain " The adventures of Huck finn" It was where he conned another person into painting a fence telling them how much fun it was. He was Huckle Bucked into doing hard labor disguised as something fun. Chubby Checker also had a song and dance called the huckle buck as well. Art
  7. We have a few scam companies that in small print confess they are not actually the Coast Guard but a service provided on your behalf to easily Document your Vessel with them for a fee. The information on a documented vessel is public information and they are huckle bucking a lot of people. Art
  8. Stupid white stuff........ very nice plow though. art
  9. Nice looking lure there Brian. You got some kind of talent in your hands for detail work. Art
  10. Very nice set of waders they should extend your season till the water gets hard enough to walk on. Art
  11. Way of subject Art
  12. Yea toys are the best. Art
  13. You can fish for them but I got a better chance of catching a freshwater shark than you getting a Snook up North. lol
  14. Very cool Brian, Down here we don't have cold water fish I need to get the darn border open again so I can see my buds to go fishing. Art
  15. Notaries are usually found at any bank or car dealership. The cost, if at all is less than 10 bucks in most cases. Art
  16. If this step is needed we call it the DMV department of motor vehicles. There is a back log of appointments and few of the DMV are open without an appointment. Call the state you plan on purchasing the trailer well before you need to visit them if at all. It was 5 months to retitle a motorcycle to a new owner just a month ago. Art
  17. That is a 31 year old boat, during a time that boats are selling for stupid money right now. If you decide that it is the one to own have it looked at by a trained marine mechanic to make sure that the major components are solid. Remember if there is a major component that needs to be replaced like , motor, hull damage, rotted transom the repair cost will make this a huge mistake to recover from. Art
  18. Imagine this a world where we all can agree that having different opinions is o.k. Art
  19. wayyyyy of subject. Back on track, stop bashing each other or it gets locked. Art
  20. There is no such thing as a tiller fan...... let the games begin CONSOLE Art
  21. Sorry but this didn't go well the last three times. If you want to discuss covid there are plenty of other sites that will let you argue about it. Not here. Art
  22. Nice looking fly brother now find a school of Crappie and I bet you would clean up on them as well. Art
  23. Take the bolt to any good auto parts store and they can size it for you. Be warned you are buying a drill bit,tap, and coils. Art
  24. When you helicoil apply grease to the drill bit and drill slow. This will catch the filings as they form. IF the grease melts you are going to fast. Grease the tap as you rethread the hole for the new helicoil. With this method you can drill and tap a sparkplug in a head still installed. For a video look at one for helicoil an aluminum head and you will find one. Art
  25. The waterways up North are brutal with the rock shoals and the cliffs that have become water basins. Down here we have lowlands with soft bottoms of sand and muck in most of our navigable waterways. Our rivers that are shallow are mostly weedfree and we use outboard jet drives to get around in the shallow water. If they do suck up weeds it is easy to hop overboard in the 2 ft of water and clear them out. I brought that boat up North a few times and cold cut through between islands with no fear of grounding with a 4 inch draft. The down side was the weeds clogging the pump. I since then use my 150 hp bass boat and a aluminum prop to hunt for rocks up North. While dangerous it makes getting around a lot faster. Art
