  1. " HEY GUYS WATCH THIS " or "Dare me to ..... " fill in the story.
  2. You, sir are a good man. It is always nice to see people helping other people, and then with a fun Trivia to boot!
  3. Enjoy, one of my favorites.
  4. OK, gotta say the idea of the thead is nothing short of great. Now for the total novice, who bought a $20.00 fish/depth finder off of craigslist. Mine is a Fishing Buddy, or something of the sort. It all looks like the ultra sound picture that people get of thier babies ( I have a few). I could never make out what was being shown to me, maybe I'm just a lost cause. What would be benificial to me, and maybe others, is a before and after picture. The before with no notations, and the after with the items in question circled, x-ed, or something to make it clearer. I mainly got mine to see how deep the creek is while I fish in it when I have time, ha ha.
  5. Every time I used gasoline in my duel fuel I had to replace the pressure regulator. Now I only use white gas.
  6. Not sure if they qualify as bluegrass , but you might check out Carolina Chocolate Drops. Very good band who play a variety of genres. Many videos on YouTube. Side note, "Guy on a Buffalo" was hilarious.
  7. .... had to look up the word "vitriol"..... 3. something highly caustic or severe in effect, as criticism. (per dictionary.com) Can't comment on the rest.
  8. Very cool video. Good job to you both.
  9. Regular size cans of Spray Paint, sold at Home Depot. It really is neat, we have a demonstration of it in the Festus store. I don't know if it will let things breath, I do believe it seals the pores of things. Sweet idea on the slime prevention on boats.
  10. Very Nice. Thanks for sharing.
  11. Very sorry to hear of his passing.
  12. LOL, I'm Good with the Hijacks, I MAY be guilty of them myself. :-)
  13. As seems to be usual for me, I got skunked Sunday evening at a private pond in Cedar Hill, MO. I did get a couple of swells on a white popper that is at least 20 years old ( I have held on to it that long not really knowing what it was for the most of them). Got the idea to try it from Cheif, but I did not have the yellow one he referenced. My buddy caught a couple small cats, pretty channels still bright silver with the black dots. That is my report. Oh, forgot to mention, I did catch a few ticks, they are out in force.
  14. Good stuff. Looking to get an hour or so this weekend on a buddy's pond. Will post results. DC
  15. Thanks for the info. DC
  16. ...well, if it floats your boat...
  17. Nice report, the Kitty looks a bit skinny. But then again, skinny one is better than none, and on the fly is even better. "
  18. I was about 10-12 years old. I went to Carondelet Park ( a city park with 2 ponds about 4 feet deep in the deepest part). The pond we wanted to fish has a dock, and it was the "cool" spot to fish from. We may or may not have learned how to use an "open face" reel. Anyhow, we went to our park and went to our spot only to find that the dock had a caution tape blocking us from entering it. There was a guy who was older than my buddy and I, but not what we would consider old, who was on the dock. We figured if he could be on the dock, so could we, after all it was OUR spot. We went around the tape, and started on to the end where we fished at, and the guy told us to get off. We asked why he could be on the dock, but we could not. He explained that he was organizing a tournament for flyfishing. There were some kind of rings that kind of looked like hoola hoops floating on the water. We asked what the rings were for, apparently they were used for scoring. We went to fish at a different part of the pond, and watched these people who we have NEVER seen in OUR park, use these funny looking fishing rods, and try to land there casts in these targets. I thought it was a neat thing, and it grew in my mind for years. I talked to many people about the idea and it just costed so much to start, I bought my first flyrod about 3 years ago, about 20 years later, maybe more. I am proud to say that I have caught 1 fish on it. I don't get much time to myself to practice, so when I get to go fishing, it is with my spinning gear with the kids. I do plan each year to use it more though. Sorry kind of a long story, but you asked. DC
  19. Good info, thanks for posting. DC
  20. I'm a pond guy. Make it 5.
  21. Where abouts? I don't get alot of time, but its up my alley.
  22. Nice Cats guys.
  23. I know you don't want online references, but, Just for the sake of others, I have used www.jackssmallengines.com and have been very satisfied with the results. I have no affiliation with them, but I am always leary of using a website I have no prior knowledge of. I tried them a few times and was very satisfied with them. DC
