Never throw a reel away! even if its not worth much you can annually trade it into BPS for a discount on a new one!

as the title says I'm building a transducer mount for my canoe. I am planning on using some type of lightweight rod that is either easily removable or can rotate on a point to remove the transducer from the water for shallow water and portaging. Looking for the best place to place the transducer (I am thinking directly behind the canoe to reduce drag but that might give me a delayed reading?) Any other tips or pictures would be great. Thanks guys!

Good to hear the treatment is going well. This thread really rips at my heart. You are right on about the stupid little things in life! all the best Wayne

Just wondering if you guys think its worth my time to buy this 14' canoe from a friend for $200 and fix it up? Just looking for someone who has restored a canoe before and can offer advice about time and $$ involved in restoration. I am considering fixing it up and reselling it. Thanks for any advice!

Sorry Cliff, but you completely missed the point. You are (probably, it's not really relevant) right about how the officers started getting free coffee. But the stereotype? That started as a result of the differentiation between police and the public. I implied this initially, perhaps I should have stated it. When every member of the public pays for a coffee and then an officer goes in and gets one for free it creates segregation. This fosters jealousy and resentment for the police in the view of the public. Don't treat them like God's and maybe they won't act like it!

Ahh, like feeding the animals in the park this should not be done. You are just feeding the police officers ego, encouraging his belief that because he is enforcing what the law states is right/wrong he is morally superior. By offering the officer a discount you are encouraging this god like complex. Police officer wages are governed by the laws of supply and demand, with externalities included for the danger inherent in their work. There is no reason to impose your own externalities upon the police by treating them any differently than any other human being. How do you figure the doughnut stereotype started?

I just had to quote these words of wisdom. Cheers JF
