Havahart live traps.

Cage up the little buggers!!!

Check with local animal control as you may be able to borrow some from them.

If not Lowes sells them.

If you want a really good deal on an entry level unit that even has GPS look HERE

I just picked one up for my neighbor for his boat.

It was about $200 US delivered including duties and taxes.

Thanks for all the replies everyone as some of you suggested go to a doctor I have done this and so far all he did was prescribe the drugs. I have tried the heat and cold without much success although the hot shower seems to help for a while. Right now the pain is so bad I wouldn't want to try much in the way of exercise or stretches as I can feel it as soon as I try to do too much will see what happens in another day or so then it will be back to the doctor to see what else can be done.

Thanks Kawartha Kev

If it is that bad go in to the hospital and get looked at.

You may have to wait around a bit but they will be able to get you the tests you need in short order.

If you go back to the doctor he will just give you a referral slip to go get the tests done.

By going straight to the emergency room you will save a day or more!!!

I don't muskie fish any more (no muskies where I live now) but when I did fish them my go to lure was always a spinner bait. I have caught most of my muskies on them including my PB 53 1/2" fish. I have caught tons on bass sized blue/yellow skirted 1/2 ounce baits and also on larger 1, 2 and 3 ounce baits. My PB came on a 3 ounce black with orange blade musky spinner bait.

I have had a bunch of Lowrance units over the years and never had an issue with them. My current unit is an LMS-350A I purchased new in the early to mid 90's. It's stll working fine other than a little screen fogging if it gets severely hosed. Replacement time is near and an HDS 10 is most likely be it's replacement.

And here i thought it was in a brothel in New Orleans

Nope. Gay bar in TO!!!

All you need is a rock drill, case of beer, ANFO and some friends and ya got yerself the makin's of a fine redneck party!!!! :rofl2:

I have both an HP and an Acer.

They both work fine but I find myself using my HP the most.

I have done a lot of repair work in the past (used to work on the bench for Futureshop's Eastern Depot) and found that some of the Acers and Toshiba's had some issues with their screen hinges and there were a lot of issues with the Toshiba's all around.

I find the HP's seem to be a more solidly built machine than the Acer's are.

If I had to choose between the two I personally would pick the HP.

But that's just me.

Mike Hendren, executive director of Kawartha Heritage Conservancy, said he knows from experience with his own boat that it’s not easy to pour from a jerry can without spilling. “It’s definitely an issue,” he said. “We’d much rather see people filling up at the marina gas stations than [using jerry cans].”

No need to fight with heavy gas cans when yo can get one of These cheap. On my buddies charter boat we have used these things since they came out in the 90's and haven't spilled a drop of gas since. Just rest the can on the gunnel and siphon then pour the little bit in the bottom that the siphon doesn't get out normally.

Well their first pick looks like a good one.

They traded their #30 1st rd and a 2nd rd pick to Anaheim for #22 1st rd and got right winger Tyler Biggs.

We'll have to wait a few minutes to see if they hold onto their #25 pick or trade it away.

Well if you read what I said, possession of it is no different, I never said pointing at someone, that's completely different

Exactly!!! And don't be surprised that if you point a starters pistol at someone you end up getting shot in self defense either. A starters pistol can still be a deadly weapon especially if it is discharged close to someone. They may shoot blanks but the escaping gas when they are fired still packs a punch. Also I have seen starters pistols that could be mistaken for a 38.

Drifter! Where did you purchase those Plus Nuts ?

I got mine at the business I was working at in the 90's down in Mississauga.

They don't sell to the public though as they are a manufacturing plant that deals with truck up-fitting.

You could order them online though.

I didn't know that the popups didn't have some sort of a holding tank. I'd get one of the wastewater caddies from an RV dealer then, it will hook up directly and be the least messy option for the greywater. Does the fridge run off 12volt power or does it run off propane?? If 12 volt, then your next purchase is a generator, if propane, you can run off of your 20lb'er and battery and it should last quite a while. I've got a 30foot travel trailer so that is what I'm basing my knowledge off of, it's our 3rd season and I think I've got it figured out.

The fridges run off 12 volt/110 volt or propane. When off grid run them on propane.

The battery will last a long time as long as you are only using it for lighting. As soon as you use it for the fridge & or heater it sucks the battery down quickly.

I have the bracket clamps mounted directly to the seat no wood, the bench is metal on top of floatation material.

The Plus Nuts I posted about will do the trick for you.

I have some 5/16" ones and an installation tool I can send you when the mail strike is over if you like. Unfortunately I don't have any 1/4" ones so you will need to open up the holes on your seat mount.

There is a very simple and good method for bolting them in.

I used 1/4" plus nuts to bolt my seats in (they were originally just screwed in from the factory). They are much stronger now and with lock washers will never come loose unless I want them to.

Plus Nuts

Hey... they were warm to walk the 2 miles to highschool in the winter Brian!

Up hill both ways in -40 temps through 3 feet of snow!!!!

or if you're in a tent....don't sleep...sit in a tree stand

That's fine if you're car camping but a little difficult if you're way out in the bush.

To me, if I'm out hunting and camping in the bush storing my firearm unloaded in it's case should be good enough. If it's not, too bad.

If I'm in bear country it stays loaded with one in the chamber with the safety on within arms reach. I don't want to be thrashing around in a collapsed tent being mauled by a grizz while trying to get my gun out of it's case and then trying to load it before I die a horrible death.

In Alaska a big bore hand gun is loaded and ready under my pillow.

Wayne, did they pay for any of the damage to the guns or the loss of the AK?

:rofl2: :rofl2: :rofl2:

You're kidding, right?

What makes them so special? Just wondering why they are worth $85

They were worth a whole lot more in the 90's as they were a coveted steelhead fishing reel.

They were selling for $200-$250 back then.

I have one just like that and don't think I'll part with it, too much history.

The drags were very good and they were very solidly built reels that rarely broke down even under the hard use of steelheading.

Well over $15K here, & if I kick the bucket, someone will get it all for pennies on the dollar

 

Everyone needs a hobby, but, there IS a limit

 

No need for somebody to get it for pennies on the dollar, just leave it to me in your will!!!!

Forget about saving $$$ too, ain't gonna happen.

Whew, I'm lucky then!!!

My pellet guns are stored in my gun safe with their big brothers.

I wouldn't leave the freshwater tank filled for a long time. That water will get stagnant after a while and get to be pretty nasty. Bring up fresh water each weekend and dump what's left when you leave. There should be a second waste water tank, I'd take a look, you really shouldn't let the water from the sink drop onto the ground, the soap is nasty for the ground water as it leaches in. I know there are 'caddies' for wastewater available at RV centres, they are a couple of hundred bucks or so and make life easier.

There isn't a waste water tank on these small tent trailers, just a drain that runs out the side of the trailer from the sink. I agree with letting the grey water run onto the ground, but I don't know what you're going to do with it unless you dig a pit and line it and just let the water evaporate or collect it in a 5 gal bucket.

Heater will kill the battery quickly as will running the fridge on 12 volt power.

When running the heater for any length of time fire up the generator to keep the battery charged.

If you have a generator there is no need to cart the batteries home at the end of the weekend, just fire up the genny for a few hours each day and you're good.

Might want to get a small generator for charging up the battery and running 120 volt stuff. A 2000 watt genny is about perfect if you have a coffee maker, toaster, microwave.

I bought a 1500 watt model (it was cheap but noisy) so I can use my espresso machine, microwave and charge my battery while off grid camping. The 1500 watter is a tad small as if the battery charger comes on while I'm running the espresso machine it trips the breaker sometimes.

Nothing like a little gothic tunage on a hump day!!!

I have a manual inflatable vest and I do find myself actually wearing it where I wouldn't with a regular vest.
