Just get a 2" ball....

Never tow a trailer with a wrong sized ball....

Thanks for making me think that every time I am behind a trailer.... It might be you with a 2" tongue and a 1 7/8 ball.

LOL

Lust be safe

Almost 50 and never took a carb apart ....guess there's a first time for everything and what have I got to lose???

The Little screws....Just kidding

If you have a digital camera....take pictures of it from a few angles

Whenever I start tearing apart something new...I load up on the pictures.

If I need a reference.....I have one

For the time being....

The bowl and needle valve are probably gummed up.....

After the needle valve warms up the gunk on the valve becomes more sticky

Take out the needle valve from the bottom of the bowl and clean that well with Carb Cleaner. (Count the turns Out...Put it back the same)

Take off the air Filter - Spray in some Carb Cleaner.

Let the Carb Cleaner evaporate....put back together

Should fix it up - This happens to my friends who do not drain the carb at the end of the season.

It is very common

OOPS Pic links broken

Lake/Pond it is about 40 - 50 acres on the back side of our property.

Polomar .... Our 11 yr old ties it

My condolences....We have a 15 yr. old Border Collie that is getting close.....

I got her when I came home from Playing hockey. She has been around longer than my wife.

It is gonna be a sad day at our house when I have to take for her last "Ride in the Truck"

It is listed on the Peterborough Board as well.

I noticed a car add on there by the same poster.....He forgot to change the "ATT: The boat will be sent from Orlando, FL, USA (3-4 days as time delivery).

This is not a local transaction. "

To Car....

LOL

Great Posts all.....

Personally I think the sentence you have at the bottom of your post is offensive:

 

"I used to be a lifegaurd..... But some blue kid got me fired"

 

While you may think it is funny, I do not.

It is just a quote from a comedian......

it is in his signature and not part of the post.

I cannot believe no one has said this.....

Look at the Pflueger President, approx $60 at BPS....the have a compbo special on now with an X-Treme Rod mated with the Pflueger President for $99.99

Consider the rod a great back up to your St.Croix

GOLD...that is funny bull right there

Nice fish...

Rice has produced well for me this year for Walleyes....Have caught a couple each time I have gone out. (Released them All)

Have yet to stumble upon any big hits that may be Muskie....Would enjoy that though

better hope danbo doesn't see that picture of the muskie.

You fish there often?

LOL...Just pokin' the Tiger

Hope they were not OOS....hate to see them get punched in the face

Moral of this story.....when getting a rod rigged, rig a few spares as well!

When fishing with my Wife and kid....It is not uncommon for me to have 6 rods rigged and ready.......

Neither can tie a knot or get a fish off

I would never get to fish.

I use PowerPro on my Baitcaster and Florocarbon leader....

I use a Blood Knot to join the lines.....has never failed me

Blood Knot

I drive 250 km a day and my wife drives 160 km a day during the week.

We then maybe put on another 300 km on the weekend.

We have a VR6 Volkswagen Jetta and a V8 F-150 supercab

250 x 5 = 1,250 km

160 x 5 = 800 km

300 on weekend

2,350 km a week

We are spending over $500 a week on gas

So next time you fill up your tank for the week....Think of me....and how I am paying for some Dude at Esso's Summer Home

Great Article....Thanks

Spoken well BushArt....

Thanks for the Stool idea

I REALLY HOPE I DON"T FALL OFF THE HIGH HORSE I AM CLIMBING UP ON RIGHT NOW.....

I really do not want to chime in but I hate hearing this bull......I would beg to differ on the Violence in Video Games/TV thing.

That is just an easy cop out for the simple fact that the parents of these kids have just done a piss poor job teaching/showing these kids respect for anything or anyone.

They want $200 shoes they get them, iPod....got that....cell phone...sure why not.....

The Parents not only have to correct the behaviour but also play a major role in the social development of these kids. The kids will generally model their behaviour from what they learn in the home. What ever happened to parents actually having arguments or disagreements in private away from the kids, or the Parents that are screaming and yelling at other parents, kids, officials at hockey/soccer games.

Kids are seeing constant conflict everywhere and this translates into their own deviant behaviour and lack of respect for EVERYTHING.

Everything stems from the "parents" and I use that term loosely.

I grew up playing Hockey, Football, Video Games, Watching Rambo movies and Hunting.....I am a poster child for being exposed to "Violence" as a youth.....I do not have a violent bone in my body....Parents just taught me Right from Wrong and how to respect others personal space and belongings.

ANYWAYS.....Wish me luck on getting off my HIGH HORSE.....LOL

Flame away.... if you feel the need

Just my $0.02

Cool Thanks

I saw it on Front Street.....will check it out for sure and will be there Bright and Early.

Here is another...probably stupid, question.

Do I have to use a boat launch? It is only a light 14' Aluminum, There is a park that we can park in then just carry and drop it in the water.

The 9.9 is light as hell too.

Just a thought.....again as you can tell I am totally new to this

There is obviously way more to it than is on the surface...

just my $0.02

Awesome responses, Thanks....

Where is the launch in Harwood (I will try to find it on google maps) and is there parking there for my truck?

Thanks again
