You spelled your dogs name wrong again it is BROOKE. Art

Jimmer is correct with an additional adage what you are seeing is called uratic salts it is from the minerals that your body eliminates into the bowl. If you have a flapper that is running on a toilet that has urine in it the minerals are trickling out with the water and forming a crystal sludge type deposit. They are not harmful and usually do not extend past the first foot of the toilet. You might want to replace the flapper on the toilet and if you are a if it is yellow let it mellow to save water type of person it is a good reason to rethink this and flush after every use UNLESS you are wee weeing at night and you do not want to wake the spouse. lol Art

Sorry to hear this Mike I am sure that he is still looking over your shoulder till the day you reunite. Art

I feel your Pain Regan Joe and I found a rock when we were up this August and on inspection I will have to drop the lower unit and weld up the hole that we put in the bullet at low speed. Some thing to consider if you want to slow down in shallow water like that is to start trimming up the motor while on plane and as it starts to rev chop the motor while still raising it. You risk a low speed hit on the hull but the motor is safe. Then putt putt back into deep water. Hope this helps and sorry to hear about the strike your good nature of taking people fishing deserves a better reward than this. Art

Regan as for the dewinterizing process make sure to use the Seafoam liquid additive in the gas tanks every tank or two. The spray is good for the air passages but it is the liquid that will clean the floats, seats and needles of the carburetor. Art

I am glad to hear the good news Lew. I am confident that Dianne will be just fine. I have sent prayers since I found out just after our trip up north and it hopefully will continue to help. All our wishes and prayer Dianne. Art and Joe

I am sorry to say this but the phone stores are not allowed to service or advise on the apple products. If you have an issue you have to schedule an appointment at an apple service center to get help. A good friend of mine owns an AT T store and this is the route I had to go thru when my I5 had an issue on the last update after he expended all of his knowledge he personally knew about the product. Art

Sorry I used the word Court instead of Magistrate my bad I guess the rest of the advise is wrong also. Reporting the offense is the correct approach taking the law into your own hands when both parties are doing something illegal is a losing battle. Is what I was attempting to imply in the above post. Art

If you bring some kind of offensive weapon ( bat, Pepper Spray, Vinegar etc.) to the dog park and you use it on a dog that has previously attacked you dog then it is premeditated malicious wounding of the dog in the courts eyes. The self defense of preservation is thrown out the window when you returned and allowed your dog off leash in an area controlled by a leash on law. Be careful on some of the advise you choose to follow the legal system will bite you in the butt sometimes. Art

Ummmm I scored a rubber ducky in the bathtub still..... Art

I'll give you twice what you paid for it.lol You know how much ice fishing we do down here. Art

The maps are draw like Google is it needs a data plan to refresh them as you move around if I am not mistaken. Art

I love the dirt track both auto and motorcycle. I wish we had a track around here to go to. Art

Good for you all, the duck was very fortunate to have found such nice friends as you and your buddy. Art

Some good thoughts here sorry I can't be of any help so far I am the King of Anti-Musky skunking some of the finest Musky fisherman on this board. lol Art

Mike if you are referring to the wire from the charger bank to the battery then you will be fine. The best way to put the wires together is to solder and then sleeve them with shrink wrap. This wire only carries 5 amps max if it is like the one on my boat. The final thing to check is that both of the wires are stranded copper if one is silver then it will corrode at the joint in no time. Art

Glad to have you aboard we have a really nice group of people to hang out with. Art

we have said what we wanted to time to go to sleep Art

Thanks for sharing your trip it was excellent. Art

At least you didn't say the W word. Good advice and good news for all of you crazy people who live too far up North. Art

Welcome James good to see you as a member now. There is a great many people here who can help you find the fish of a life time. Keep an eye on the classifieds you will find a few of your wish list items appear from time to time. Art

Welcome to the board you will find lots of information with the search feature. If you search for the lakes in your area you will find past reports and tips on your favorite species. Look at the names and you will see locations on most of the people here once you find people who are in your area see if an offer of coffee, lunch and some fuel gets you an invitation to go fishing. Art

Only on cold water, isolated places or going faster than 50 mph. Art

I had a good chat with Danny and he is a real pro at guiding. He comes with all of the top end equipment and a boat that is made for the area. He ran from the lodge out to the mouth of Lak Nipissing to catch Muskie one day for 2 gentlemen. He is very nice to talk to and he will give you more info than you can get from reading for a month in a day. I personally have been very lucky with my anti catch muskie reputation and so far have skunked 4 of the finest muskie anglers that I know. Danny has not taken a shot yet but given time I am sure I can beat him too. As far as the lodge goes both Regan and Goldie have been nothing but aces to everyone who has stayed there. The courtesies he showed me with help when my transducer broke with not only a hand but allowing me to use a few tools I needd will not soon be forgotten. Here is a link to Dannys site. http://www.nipissingmuskies.com/ Art

Looks like this has run it's course thanks to all who kept it civil thanks to the few who made me laugh and to the few internet hero's heed my warning it is a real possibility. Art
