OOPS Maybe not as identical as it was at first glance. I've been logging less than 8,000 kms. a years, fuel economy was not a big issue with me. 2 or 3 days a week it doesn't leave the drive. I'm probably not a good candidate for a diesel vehicle, as it stands I probably should be putting stabilizer in if I fill the tank, it lasts that long

OMG , it's a twin to the one I got 2 weeks ago, same year and colour My story is pretty much the same, old 97 GMC Safari, needed new tires, brakes, exhaust and probably a few other things. Told the better half we could put 2 grand into it and still it would only be worth a couple of thou or so, time to go shopping. Originally, I went to look at an 06 GMC Trailblazer, I have a 3500 lb cap landscape trailer and a 18 1/2 foot tinboat with a V4 on it that the 4.3 litre Safari towed well so thinking the 4.2l. Trailblazer would give adequate performance, alas when we got to the lot it was sold the day before. They had the Liberty for 3 grand less than what the Trailblazer was and only 52.000 klm's on it. Haven't towed with it yet, actually went this afternoon to the hitch shop but they closed at noon on Saturday ( darned small town ) I live a couple of hundred yards from the boat launch and only use the trailer around the area, no roads over 80 kph. so I'm pretty sure the 3.7l. will handle it, it's rated to tow 5000 lbs. , I don't expect to go over 3000lbs. Here's hoping we do well with them.

Nice coop, just make sure you use the finest mesh you can get. In my childhood we had chickens and rabbits, not many yotes back then and everything was fine for years but then we got weasels, nasty little buggers, not any bigger than a red squirrel but they kill for fun they'll kill most of a whole hutch or coop and very little eaten.

I used to order a lot of hunting stuff from the Cabelas catalogue, also an outfit called Gander Mountain, BPS couldn't compare to the selection and quality of those two firms. The hostile environment was mainly about the perception of firearms/hunting in the greater Toronto area. I recall 40 years ago, picking up my first varmint rifle, a Remington .22-250 at "Hallams" which was then on Yonge St. between Bloor and College, packed it in a soft case and got on the subway back to the carpark, try that today and you'd have a dozen cruisers and a swat team on you in seconds

I got one of these in the mid 80's , lives on the boat, I can put a salmon or trout on it and be within 2 oz of the weighin scale everytime. No it's not digital but it is IGFA certifiable and it still works almost 30 years later, I 2nd the vote Roy for a Chatillon http://www.chatillon.com/Our%20Products/Chatillon%20Weighing%20Scales/fish%26game_product/IN_SpecSheet.pdf

Cabelas has always impressed me as a outfit that caters to the hunting/outfitting crowd a little more so than fishermen, possibly they view the western provinces as a little less hostile social enviroment to set up shop in.

I operated a 2 hp Johnson on a bracket on a fairly heavy cedar strip canoe. Few words of wisdom... these motors often do not have a gear shift so they start in gear... Don't start at WOT or when the motor is turned sideways, be pointed in the direction of travel before starting . To utilize reverse you simply spin the motor 180 degrees... again a very low throttle is advised, depending on the stability of the canoe maybe not even advisable at low throttle.

I'd go with Rapalas J9 or 11's or other stick type baits, either long lined or off boards, stay inside of 20 feet of water. It will be a few weeks before the Kings start, they just don't seem to be there this early , even on the south shore, not sure where they are, maybe deep still.

Got this whole show from a trading site on DVD, recorded from German TV station WDR, man 706 views is criminal <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/mef4LeIHvC4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> an acoustic number, most of the show is on youtube, this guy is a MONSTER on slide <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/GlqbqTkze1M" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Sitting here looking at the folding trailer tongue thread , I thought, maybe it would be a simple task to pull the hinge pin on the folding tongue, guess you would have to have an addition plug maybe for electrical, not having a folding tongue trailer don't know if this is feasible, but storing the short hitch portion in the house would make the tongueless trailer even more difficult to steal. Maybe this would work

Actually I'd go 2 stroke for the weight saving again myself because I use a kicker for trolling, owned one and seen a few boats that get too heavy in the butt with 2 motors. Get 2 guys at the back setting riggers/netting fish plus the motors/batteries/fuel is often too much. Most often the big motor gets run only to get offshore, minimal fuel consumption anyway. I'd go 4 stroke on the kicker before the main engine, in my case anyway.

ARRGH! got one of those too, was a humbling experience backing it into the drive the first time. The worst part is trying to back the darn thing up in a straight line, when it's straight you can't see it behind the van. It's actually easier to get it into the drive from the street than to back straight down the drive.

Very nice rig My experience was if the 90, 115 maybe even 125 are on the same powerhead with the same displacement any gain will be very marginal, maybe not worth the expense. My experience was with the older 85 to 140 V4 OMC's, think they just upped the rpm the HP was rated at to get the next engine in the line-up.

No problem, for browns you are often close enough to shore that a shorecaster could hit you. Better to stay out further a few yds and run a board in shallow though. Start with J9's and J11's in natural blues and silver or maybe a chartreuse if there is colour to the water to start.

This is a slightly larger caliber and the extra grade with engraving but may be a start, it's a very high quality firearm. http://www.gunsinternational.com/J-P-Sauer-80-Extra-8x68.cfm?gun_id=100119417

You got to be carefull put the truck in too far and you can sink the bow and it makes it hard to get the winch line unhooked

And just to prove to me that the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is getting their heads screwed back on right they induct this great as well this year <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/3wG55hfh2w0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Thanks for the Tom Waits guys, never in a million years considering the inductees of recent years did I ever think this would happen <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/gVVDrPEQZt4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

That is exactly how the ones I have work.

My old easy loader trailer has a no name set of bearing buddies on it , it has a relief hole drilled in from the side so you can't overfill, once the disc with the nipple gets to the hole the grease just comes out the side. should be simple to modify any set to work the same.

Backbay, still a Peter Green fan here, at 61, I was a big fan of the original Fleetwood Mac, in my circle of friends we call the later version of the band " Pussy Mac " There are 2 albums that would be of interest to fans of classic blues that he did about 10 years ago featuring the entire works of Robert Johnson that I listen to a lot and would recommend. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Robert_Johnson_Songbook_(album) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_Foot_Powder_(album) enjoy if you wish

On the other side of the coin they have many overproof rums and vodkas where we are limited to 40% alcohol.

I like to look at the position of the jaw in relation to the eye, the difference is much the same as large and smallmouth bass. With Browns having a eye-jaw relationship much like a largemouth and Atlantics are the smallmouth.

Very nice brownie a little longer and leaner than most and a nice broad tail, nice change genetically from the football strain.
