I also heard they have a habit of beating their pets.....but no one cares about that stuff....they just care about the widely accepted undisputed (successfully) long standing champion theory of evolution. forrest PS: its going to get its first update in a little while, but that is a secret I will not reveal at this time

I take it that you are saying that someone else holds the copyright to the logo...strange. If its a Lund logo......they are gouging. Buy L U N D in a nice but plain font and put near transom on each side. go to trade show or call up other companies for free logo....mercury, yamaha, OFC, Starcraft and Pay a pin-striper for a custom graphic. forrest

OFC has a promo deal with All American Outdoors: http://www.ofncommunity.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=20375 and off I went clicking away to buy a bait caster. To cut a long story short.....I think I ordered the freshwater edition and its the salt water models that were on sale, I hope the guy I talked to on the phone caught onto that I wanted the OFC deal. So the freshwater and saltwater reels retail for the same price....whats the difference? why would they sell a fresh water version that has inferior rust resistance? http://www.quantumfishing.com/fwreels/energyPT_baitcast.html http://www.quantumfishing.com/swreels/ener...s_baitcast.html any good info is good info. forrest

they are not lobster traps. At $5 a piece they are your gold but someone else's garbage.

On a peaceful quite lake I like fishing by myself or with the wife, if there is idle chatter its all good. But when targeting fish it is always faster to work with someone else who is working things a bit different. The learning curve is much better and fishing more fun. It is also easier to tell a believable tale of the one that got away. forrest

$200!!??? I almost choked on my dinner. If its a big decal package with pinstripes I can see that....but what about those smaller 8 by 14 "Lund" stickers? forrest

OK...so I saw the link: http://www.ofncommunity.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=20375 and off I went clicking away to buy a bait caster.

I have been looking at those pictures for 10 minutes and all I have bben able to find is a mermaid and the reflection of sasquatch jumping out of a UFO. Where is the gar? forrest

Do a before paint job, then after paint job pic. Call Lund and they may send for free. It is free advertising for them. forrest

Life ring + rope over side of boat to balance in the water + towel to dry off

Ahhh....thanks, I may leave mine outdoors this year....I left mine inside over this past winter. forrest

This is a bit off topic, but, isn't it better to change the oil after winter? Condensation can occur over winter. forrest

If you buy something off of the website that is the price you pay (after conversion and taxes). Its a weird setup. The website is a completely separate entity, they have their own products, pricing and product id system. I would think that if I gave a website # that the store had someway to know what product it is. Its not easy getting up to BP so a lot of people look online first. forrest

nice fish....nice way to catch them too (in a canoe). What type of birds are those in the background? forrest

Check with the store you bought the battery from. Almost always they are on the shelf charged and ready to go. You will still need a charger over the winter months...a trickle charger will keep the battery fresh. forrest

I can't believe this modifying your car with $60 of material so it can run on water gas mix is going on. :wallbash:

An arm and a leg is worth it for love. check out this other thread for repair guys: http://www.ofncommunity.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=17073 forrest

Additional items: 1) close the upstairs cold air returns and open the warm air returns(near ceiling) 2) get the ceiling fans going in the right directions (in fwd, blowing towards the floor). 3) put pastic bags or some other obstruction on the basement vents that do not close completely (those round ones). Yes, yes, puts a greater load on the blower motor...the holes in the system will reduce the strain, seal and get cold. forrest

Went to Bass Pro this aft on my way to a wedding so I was pressed for time. It was a wonderful wedding full of good people in a great outdoor setting, ceremony was in the woods. Back to Bass Pro: 1) taking an internet catalogue number and asking a clerk to reference it is useless! "we do not go by those numbers"... you have to be kidding me. 2) the Salty 10 is still $24 on the shelf....I just bought 2 online from BP for $35.....@#$@#%!!!! (I think I will make a phone call) 3) something my buddy wanted was more than twice the online price ($20 instead of $10) 4) the store does not have a lot of stuff that online has. 5) the guy at the parts counter was excellent and friendly. 6) Napoleon BBQs....they were on sale....a kick butt sale....about 40% off!!!! Forget about Home Depot! I bought one of their medium-low range ones last year and was in a hurry so I did not get exact details Example: $1299.....now $699. $699 now $319. It may have something to do with the Barrie manufacturing closing. All I know is that if I was in the process of buying a BBQ I would have spent an extra few minutes and bought one. And if you are wondering....yes, napoleon is a good as webber....better some say. 7) Tungsten jigs heads? How can they not sell tungsten jig heads? forrest PS: bought another salty and spent about $100

I am going there this afternoon: The last 2 trips I made were wide apart and I noticed a couple of the same things: 1) the fish looked pale and not as big, they were certainly changed out. 2) the boat department had fewer boats and the sales guy was resorting to unfavorable sales practices (by my standards). So boat sales must not have been going so well. forrest

When I was looking for a filleting/live fish handling glove I looked at the Normark one that is like chainmail and the Lindy one that feels more synthetic. The Normark felt nicer on my hands but I bought the Lindy for 2 reasons: 1) The Lindy one will not let the point of the knife go through it the Normark definitely will let it (its chainmail). Same goes for fish spikes. 2) The Normark lets water flow right through it, the Lindy seems waterproof to me so there is no stinky fish smell. forrest

I have one of the CTC intelligent battery charges by schumacher: http://www.canadiantire.ca/browse/product_...fromSearch=true 12/8/2A charges that does deep cycle.....should I not be using it? forrest

I think 30mph is flying, especially with the weight of the console, and you want to go faster?

Before throwing any chemicals on something I always try baking soda w/ scrub brush or cloth and then a wipe down with a 1/5th vinegar/water mixture. It it works great on the worst bath tubs and a bunch more (thats right zero Mr. Clean etc in my house). The baking soda removes the grime. The Vinegar is an anti-fungal agent. Neither work as a soap though so to do degreasing after baking soda use a mild soap. Better than chemicals and may suit your applicaiton. forrest

I think CTC still tests batteries for customers. They have a machine for it and will also check the fluid levels and mixture. forrest
