I'm still sticking with Mighty Max - Home Depot and now Menards carry them, so getting warranty support isn't an issue either.

One of the winter things I do when going over Bass Trek is all the electrical...including my Edge 45.

I can't understand why they'd only do it if it's cancerous....it's a health issue, they should work on it. Personally, I'd pick Baton Rogue - it's closer - and see if they can get you into Ochsner...it's the #1 rated hospital in LA.

^ Layering is something we up north learn early - especially for those days that start cold and end up warm.

Looks like you had a fun time of it though - and Hank seemed to enjoy it as well. That pic of you and Keri with Bill, Jimmy and Hank still blows me away though....

It's a tough road you travel, my friend, and I can sympathize. Nora has been bed-bound for 2 years now, but the state provides payment for a PCA to come in and provide personal care to give me some breaks. We have a wonderful gal now who we've even become good friends with...and her 4 kids (ages 9-15) call us 'Nana' and 'Papa'. Stay strong, give Lynn our love.

Latest project - still in process. What's left to do is build the steering assembly, mount the handle, route controls and electrical and build the coupler ball support...but at least it's recognizable as a dolly now - or what will become one.

Having moderated FB groups and Use-Net groups in the ancient past, I know how far down some people can go. That I've actually made friends here - even if only Virtual - speaks highly of the class of people we have here. The wealth of knowledge freely shared is also an eye opener. BR Members Rock That is all.

Mine lives in my truck - even in the dead of August you can find it in there.

Or just ship it over here

Great news, Tommy. You just take it easy for now, heal up, and those bayou bass will be eager to attack your lures when you can get out again.

Weather here still can't decide Today Sunny, with a high near 70. South southwest wind 5 to 15 mph. . . . Saturday Rain and snow. High near 47. Breezy, with a west wind 10 to 20 mph, with gusts as high as 30 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%. Saturday Night A 40 percent chance of snow. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 18. Blustery, with a west northwest wind around 20 mph, with gusts as high as 30 mph.

This I can confirm - at just over 6' I'm above average, and having met Gim - he's a bit taller than I am.

Another vote for InvizX - I've tried a couple others and keep coming back to it.

I don't know about Ali - but the price they quote on Digitaka is what I pay...no taxes, no shipping charges for rods and reels, no import fees.

My situation exactly.

Prior generation St Croix Mojo Bass - handled the new Trigons at my local store and did NOT like them. I prefer an XF rod for finesse applications and the 6'10" ML/XF was a great addition. Secondary rod is actually the St Croix Panfish - the 7'3" ML/XF I picked up has also proven to be a winner in my arsenal.

Either pound test but 8 strand all the way - my three Miravel 2500s have 20#, 15# and 10# 832 on them - all based on what techniques I'm using them for.

I can believe the streams down there are open...just hope he's following the rules - C&R only on stream trout until April 12

Fixed that for you.

De[ends on the reel - most of mine are new - but usually purchased JDM for under US prices, the exceptions are the few Pflueger Patriarchs I've gotten in Excellent condition on the used market...all for under 1/2 retail price.

I'm not quite that old - that dance became popular a year or two before I was born Like @A-Jay says #borninfiftynine

If any of us were ever sane to begin with. 🤪

They do tell you - a 36v8a charger draws 288 watts of power (36x8)...if it's only 50% efficient, then it needs 576 watts. Divide by 120v for the outlet - and it's max draw from the house is 4.8amps of house current. They are rated - my NOCO has different modes - flooded (standard car battery), AGM (also for Gel-Cells) and Lithium. unless your charger is rated for the battery type your using, you can cause damage to the battery that's NOT covered by warranty.

Except NOCO is a US company that designs their chargers in Ohio....made over in Asia, but US engineered. Dakota Lithium's main manufacturing facility is in Grand Forks, ND, USA.
