Smallmouth and largemouth do have different spawning habitat. I don't want to start the argument of is it good or bad for the fisheries. I know we have fished thru both of the species and have not been able to document any negative impact in most real life situations. I have a really nice 20 acre farm pond that I fish and have watch the fish spawn for a few years and identified specific fish that I have caught during the previous spawn return and do it again in the same spot.

I am betting the quotes are going to be at a premium till they get caught up with the damage done. If you can stabilize it till this spring you will not pay as much. Art

2015 models are already in production. If they were going to have it out it would be introduced as soon as March 2014. The 2015 Ford Tvan should be out at least here in the States at any time my local dealer told me they have already placed an order for a few and are hoping for March to be the delivery date. Art

If not you can use it to train someone on how a bear repellent feels when it is discharged. Art

A helpful link that is not for your personal monetary gain is just fine. Art

Joe and I have restored boats, bikes and cars etc. if it is metal or has a motor it is a candidate for a winter restoration. Art

Thank you everyone for posting your works of art for all to not only enjoy but also to own. I would like to let everyone know that OFC now has a place( the 3x3 banner on the top right of the pages)for you to let everyone know year around you have products for sale. You can contact any of the moderators for information and costs which will be used to help offset the boards expenses. Thanks again Art

I will expect the claim to be denied because the seal if intact would have prevented water from getting inside the housing and doing the damage. I would look into the price for a rebuilt unit rather than repair. The extent of the damage could be greater than what you repair and destruct a second time when you start the fishing season. Art

You are starting on a bad premise you are using a Harley instead of a real Motorcycle lol. Art

Good job spending money to pay down debt is the first step of getting out of debt. Once you get the debt controlled you can budget painless fun money and not feel guilty. Art

I have put my go pro on the dog to see where he goes on the farm. It is amazing how much he gets done on one of his walkabouts. Art

No problem we got lots of toy's to play with. I even will be hanging zombie bait out for extra practice. Art

Nope wimp fits I never claimed to be as cold tolerant as my Canadian friends. But to make the contest fair you get to come see me in August when it is in the 90's and not a dry heat...lol Art

I lost count of how many gloves I lost bumper skiing behind cars. We even used tow ropes and snow boards skies saucers trashcan lids etc. Mostly bumps and bruises from the activities but no worse than sledding down a hill. Art

Come on down some day and I will show you my brass kahunas........ she keeps them on the fireplace mantle. Art

If time permitted I would head up for some ice time. The big challenge is getting permission for two fishing vacations in the same year. I prefer the summer North trips with the pike active and feeding. Art

I find meal worms at most pet stores that sell food for reptiles. They are cheaper than the baitshop and usually in better shape. BTW I have never been mad enough to call my minnows pinheads, some of fishing partners yes but not my bait. Art

Anything below -10 C has me deciding to either have heat on hand or not playing outdoors. I guess this puts me in the little boys category. Art

Congratulations you now can watch the fish stare at your bait and not bite. I have the HD7 on the big boat and on a calm day you can watch the fish pass into the beam and move up or down for the bait. Art

Even the nitrogen charged camera will freeze at them temps. lol Art

Joe was extra nice to me he got me a Marlin bolt action 12 gauge slug master. I also got a few other items for my gun collection. A new spotter scope, a trucolor aim and point for my PPS 43C zombie killer and a promise for the 16 inch 9MM barrel from the machine shop. A new set of spiral deep cycle batteries for the boat and a few metal working tools for the garage. Thank you Santa and all of his elves. Art

Look at the wire colors and then check the schematic for the box that you have. It could be for speed control, tach, oil pressure etc. Art

Here in the States Either UPS or FedEx are our two main carriers. They will deliver to residential as well as commercial buildings and seem to take the best care of packages. Art

Looks like a good time was had by all. Art

I have been a bridgestone fan for many years running them on both the pick up and the work van. They are good solid tires and while we do not get the same amount of snow you all do the snow we do get can be as much as 24 inches in a dump. The van will not push thru safely more than 13 inches but the 4x4 will go where I point it. Art
