  1. Guess they don't make'm like they use to... I'm still using the Berkley Lightning rod (6'6 spinning) and the "Lebaron Special" (just a lightning in black wrap) bait casting rod that I bought in 1983 !!! from LB's on Dundas...
  2. Splashhopper.. if you want to fix the leaks in your sportspal.. go pick up a tube of Sikaflex 1A (local United Rental sells it) and you can get it in various colours. Sand, aluminum, limestone etc. Or go into a marine supply and get a tube of Sikaflex 591 (white or black are your choices). Scrub the suspect area with brown scotchbrite, clean it with acetone, let that evaporate and then apply the Sikaflex. Should be no need to pull up the interior foam. TC.. if you do go at the aluminum with sandpaper.. be absolutely certain that it is aluminum oxide paper! Personally, like I said, I'd check that thing for leaks... re set any loose weeping rivets and use it as is with the exception of at least cleaning up or replacing the wood. If you want to paint it.. strip it with TAL STRIP II or have it soda blasted. Then self etching epoxy primer for aluminum and top coat.
  3. Okay.. they're now over the top of their goal, but it doesn't mean that you/we can't keep giving. It would be hard to believe that nobody here hasn't been touched by this disease and no matter where/to whom you give it goes to the same cause... to find a way to defeat it! I lost my father to Cancer way back in '86 (he was 59). Have lost my favourite Aunt and many others since, BUT I gave because I can't stand seeing a boy with his hair that long... lol
  4. Absolutely not... why I've been bugging Spiel to make me some of those crayfish!!! Wanna sell some....

  13. You sayin Chickens don't have vaginas Terry...
  14. I couldn't afford to run a big 2 stroke. My fuel bill is about $4000 a season as it is...running my 275 and 9.9 kicker on my 23' Lund. Mind you it was about $5000 a season when I was running my 115 Johnson 2 stroke on the 17' Glastron !! That said.. run what you have and enjoy it! Most of the arguements here are pretty mute, considering you can't buy a NEW 9.9 two stroke from ANYONE.
  15. Mike, I lost 23 lbs since December.. just by switching from Pepsi to Diet Pepsi. No need to exert that effort at the gym !! LOL .......... Remove gifted pickeral fillets from freezer.. thaw... roll in... Oh. that's what I'm doing ! LOL Always the good 'ol on the steaks.. Kraft BBQ sauce and mix in a few table spoons of honey.. coat the steaks and BBQ. Re dip/coat while eating and goes great on the taters as well..
