  1. Haven't seen my yard in weeks which is rare here. Plowed Snow 3 times so far which is more than I have in the last 5 or 6 years combined. It should help with the 2 year drought.
  2. 2 spinning 2 casting seems like a sensible plan. 6'6 - 6'8 rods for both. Spinning ML - Med Casting med - MH I'd be fine with all Dobyns.
  3. I have a Bass Raider for ponds and river. Seats are high and comfortable and the boat is very stable. I use a 55lb thrust TM that is bow mounted. I'm 64 and can load the boat in the bed of truck by myself but it ain't easy. Con: this boat does not like wind.
  4. Yeah that was bad. In the 1st half the Eagles had more points than the Chiefs had yards 😳
  5. You won't be disappointed. I've fished hard for several years with a Stinger 175 and have thoroughly enjoyed it...... very stable, well constructed.
  6. Your not alone. In the boat locker is : 3 - Shimano 4 - Lews 3 - Abu 1 - Pflueger 2 - Kastking 1 - Diawa Think there's a couple more in there 😁
  7. Don't understand the misconception ❓ good company. We use the credit card all year, vacations and whatever. At the end of each year with all the points, we buy clothes and everything outdoors for free....... with the points. Just don't let the interest get away.
  8. I use a #1 wide gap mustad hook, similar to a trout hook. Therefore a med-light works great to keep them pinned, nose hooked. Same hook used to nose hook flukes.
  9. No doubt, most complete team in the league. Defensive line, offensive line and Barkley. But what about Mahomes magic ❓
  10. Looking like a 3-peat 😲
  11. Cotton candy chartreuse is my go to spring lizard in clear water.
  12. A 100k bass boat is mind boggling. If I had Elon Musk money I'd still likely look at much cheaper options. They are cool to look at though.
  13. Flickshake - 60 % Spinnerbait -20 %
  14. Daniels does have that Clint Eastwood coolnest about him but can he beat Detroit AND Philly ❓ on the road ❓
  15. Bills vs Eagles looks inevitable...... that is of course unless Mahomes flops and the Swifty girl is watching. 😂
  16. I've had bass boats before and after kids. If you have time, a vehicle to pull it and a place to store it......a bass boat is a must. 😁
  17. I don't mind the snow at all but hovering around 0* - 10* sucks. Have to get up every night around 2 and go outside and throw wood in the boiler......it can't keep up 😲
  18. We've been having a brutal winter here so I've been laid up for the most part. Projects in the garage has kept me from going crazy. Working on chainsaws mostly and clearing driveways for older folks.
  19. As I get older it's definitely the cold. AND unfortunately we're having brutal cold here. Snow, few single digit nights, wind. At least it's still football season 😉
  20. I shot a black bear several years ago and had a fly fishing buddy swing by and took several bags of hair and a few claws. He also uses deer hair. Black and chartreuse hair jigs was a go-to bait in our river for smallmouth.
  21. This hits the nail on the head. I look at myself now at 64 always putting safety at the forefront whether it's on a boat or operating equipment..... safety 1st. Rewind back to my teens and into my mid 20's, I was an idiot, risk taker, thoughtless and downright dangerous. Thoughts and prayers to those effected by this tragedy.
  22. I have 5 reels that are used heavily that I clean and relube each year, a dozen or so that gets it every other year.
  23. My wife plays this Christmas album by Michael Bolton, me likes. Growing up it was always O' holy night.
  24. Do you need to state the obvious 😄 It's the bank 2 light that's out so think I'm gonna stick in another deep cycle battery that I have lying around just to rule out a bad battery.
  25. I have a Promar 2 bank charger for charging my (2) trolling motor batteries 24V. The issue I'm having is only 1 indicator light is coming on where it's always been 2 displaying. It was fine on my last fishing trip when I plugged up, both batteries charged completely. Cleaned all the terminals, applied light coating of dielectric grease, checked fuses, water level good. Multimeter is at daughters house 😕 Batteries are 4 yr old interstate. What ya' think ? Bad indicator light ?
