Well now that you ask, I'm a little hungover but I should be ok...thanks for askin though Smart ass painter

I'm tellin ya dog thats a northern--I caught yer quote

Caught a mill of those things in mile and trap and it is senor nor pike OOS bass don't think so---mr. limey lives with the chosen frozen AND bass is open all year Bushart

Oh I thought you meant are the board members gettin slow....My mother told me I'm not slow just special Bushart

One different idea.....you checked the hose from the block--did you check the discharge fitting itself for blockage? 2x I've had crud--one time a hornet crawled in there--does'nt take muck to plug it--maybe cheaper than an impeller??? Just an idea?? Bushart

Also as the artistic sensitive type I may recite the women some poetry---that's artistic eh? Hey dog what rhymes with Nantucket...? Bushart

Cool ....Think bout this ,,,as arteests...one day Roy or myself may have opportunity to body paint one of those bikini clad dancers... Maybe while fishing at the same time...would'nt laugh at da painter then... Bushart

MMMMMM Cowboy hat huh?

Arteest----Not that there's anything wrong with that......

Ok that explains why those guys are always using little pink bags for bait...........Not That there's anything wrong with that....

Thanks guys---those antlers are tougher than you can imagine to paint on----rough lines and curves where you don't need them. Bushart

Ok I had several requests to post updates on my latest Project and I don't want to search back a month to find that thread so here goes. Posted in General topics as thats where they seen them--normally it's in foto section. Painting will be done soon and then the skull cap needs attention. Bushart

Kinda redefines what we know as anglers as a bottom bouncer huh?

AAAhh Welcome to the club (Meetings every 3rd Tuesday) My distain for Canadian Tire auto service dates back to the 70's where as a younger man with little dough I ponied up the cash on numerous occasions to have their service dept fix my car-----long story short----left on the side of the hwy too many times and the kicker was it was rectified by the same part I paid Canadian Tire for with a part out of a scrap yard. There endeth the lesson Now I USE them as an emergency Senko/ gamakatsu supplier when everyone else is not available-----no auto parts---no lawnmowers---not even a 2 1/2 inch nail. I know my little stance is the David & Goliath thing but it's my cash and they can't have it----I sleep better if nothing else. Bushart

Taken from my 1st spot Bushart

Minus 2 this morn when I got up so I thought extra cup of coffee and let the day warm up---still freezing when running though. Checked some old weed haunts lookin for willy but no go---that cold front was tough Caught too many oos smallies on first breaks in about 12 fow Got bit off 2x by snot rockets Bout 1 pm set up on a rockpile in 11 fow got this guy----gulp alive Went home had a couple beer to warm up. Bushart

This is in line with the legislation of common sense... I have legally been able to keep these fish but have not Have not kept one crappie in 25 years-----many thousands for others. Have not kept a speckle trout/rainbow in 6 plus years Have not intentionally kept a northern in 10 plus years Probably kept 10 largemouth in 25 years Now this list goes on and on but tell someone they cannot do something and see how you make out. Bushart

As you changed your thread I'll say........"Never Mind" Bushart

I think then I would become a criminal!! This ultra sensitive-- eco friendly-- touchy feelly-- uber-- holier than thou protection of the fish stock nonsense really needs a wake up call. My ancestors who helped open this country up enjoyed eating fish and game as part of the ENTIRE outdoor experience---I will continue. I hope this is the answer you were hoping for. Bushart

I wonder where they draw the line . . . perhaps 'impaired operation of an air mattress?' I'll have you know I do my best air matress work--Impaired (Oh you mean on the Water and not a tent) Bushart

I married into that muskoka cottage family---after many years I re-wrote the defintion COTTAGE = 2ND JOB Bushart

if your covering up old ceiling tile or even drywall--I would consider strapping it- Old tiles have some give so when the nail goes through the pine --through the tile and into your truss--it may compress the tile somewhat and more than likely split your v-joint. Bushart

Ok I was a sheet metal worker for 25 years---here's my opinion I first would be concerned about your welds---alum cracks easily if not done correctly--I'm assuming you looked into this. that boat will flex to a degree on the water. Those rivets you seek are Aluminum hammer rivets---I suggest for the small fee a shop would charge to hammer them in it would be worth it---most boat repair shops use a pneumatic setter. You mentioned bolts----anytime you trust a thread not working loose is a challenge---remember the stresses your boat will take---rough water etc. Here's something a lot of people forget---stainless is non corrovive but certain types can be more brittle than even regular steel---it works great on transducers etc but under load and vibration I would take care---ask yourself if it was this easy and good the boat manufacturers would do it instead of what they do. If your planning on taking children in this boat I would make sure these bases are covered---please have the life jackets on. Hope this helps Bushart
