Knot Sure

Thanks, I'll try it.

What is the best grease for boat trailer bearings, and why? What do you use?

Thanks

Does anyone remember Gadabout Gaddis? The last time I remember seeing anything about him was at Bass Pro Shops in Springfield. They had what appeared to be all of his old television film reels, cameras, some photographs and his fly fishing equipment. I can only remember him fly fishing on his shows.

Is a Yamaha 200 HP HDPI that I'm considering buying with, 500 hours (at least some salt water use) before a new lower unit worth $7000. Runs good now.

I cannot seem to find any recipes for flies that use American Racoon fur. Finn Racoon, which appears to be from Finland or synthetic.( And, I thought Racoons were a uniquely New World animal) is widely available. Is there a downside to using racoon fur for jigs or flies?

Great story. Thanks for sharing. Reminds me of my Dad's fishing stories about smallmouth on The Huzzah. And..... hair jigs and cold water.

Does anyone know if a panoptix livescope can be connected to a big screen tv and give decent resolution?

I am told that the boat of choice in the northwestern pacific states and Alaska is often an aluminum boat, being used in coastal (salt) water and also in the rivers. And the rocks are the deciding reason. I'm thinking, ozark rocks are as difficult as northwestern rocks. So, that is what lead me down this path.

OK, thanks. So that tells me they are disposable across the board. The salt is just too hard on the metals. So, I;m thinking an aluminum boat is also strongly susceptible to corrosion that you would not see in a fresh water only boat.

What should I look for in an aluminum boat that has been used in salt water. A boat that was (suposedly) designed for salt water and the motor. I understand that salt water shortens the life of the motor. By how much? The boat has been stored on a trailer. Is there any where to look on the boat or motor for corrosion or other problems. The trailer?

Thanks for sharing. And, Yes Mike Baker videos are outstanding.

Are you seeing any other species following the shad schools? Walleye, crappie, white bass, catfish?
