  1. Nothing seems to "push water" like deer hair. I've tried the wool and Lazer dub heads and they just don't make the magic happen for me. Once deer hair is good and soaked it gets down just fine. I use the hair from the base of a bucktail for streamers 👍
  2. Cool ! 👍 I might actually start oversizing my wing like you did. It will make it even easier to see, and likely won't hurt anything. You might dip one in water just to make sure the white band doesn't "go dark". That separation in the body is a critical thing (I think). I've had to add more wraps of white on several of mine. That's why I use thread instead of floss (white floss tends to go transparent when it gets wet). I'm happy that you're trying it. Hope it's as good to you as it is to us. 🙂
  3. I'm surprised that nobody is out hucking big streamers at bass during "jerkbait season". Those swimbait and A-rig fish are suckers for them.
  4. Right ! I actually reside just a few miles south of the gate..... otherwise known as Jacobs cave.
  5. Did she "nit-pick" him? 😅 Poor guy😢
  6. After being told how big the schlongs are in that family, I'd say that the crabs would need to be also. There's a reason why your mom named you Peter. What's your brother's name? Dick?
  7. Nice of you to say, but you're mistaken...... anyone here will confirm that I'm straight out of the gates of hell. 😁
  8. Right on 👍 Can you confirm that the fuel is reasonably fresh and has no trace of water in it ? And that this Throttle Cam Roller hasn't deteriorated and fell off ?
  9. Oh yeah, I left out the mouthwash. 👍
  10. You mean my Covid vaccine? Heck yeah! Don't forget the Marlboros. 😁
  11. In my school they at least considered the structural soundness of the building.....We were ordered out into the hallways, away from any windows, and curled up into a fetal position along the inside walls. Being the inquisitive little peckerwood I've always been, I remember asking my teacher WHY anyone would want to bomb our school? Her reply is probably what first set me against religion, because she said "it's because we worship a different god". To which I said... "We? Speak for yourself ! Can I go home now?"
  12. I only sleep 6-8 hours a day, I just do it at a different time than most.....and I don't do it on the porch. 🙂
  13. Painters talk more $#!t than anyone ! You can't believe a word they say 🙄 It's probably the fumes from all that thinner. Worse than a crackhead. 😁 INCOMING !!!! 😬 TAKE COVER !
  14. Did you swap the injectors out yourself, or did an authorized dealer do it ? Replacement injectors have to be paired with the ECM using Evinrude software, so even merely swapping their position will screw things up. When spark plugs were changed were they marked and referenced so that the gap aligned with the injector nozzle ? Pretty important. You mentioned "carbs" 🤔 There aren't any carbs. You say that you replaced both injectors and the fuel pump???.....Man! Holy Mother of Bank Accounts!!!! You've really dumped some serious coin, hu ? Should we start a GoFundMe account for ya so you don't starve ?
  15. Whatever ya do, don't let anyone step on it !
  16. Me too. Just curious what it's gonna cost me when some anxious and eager agent feels the need to flex his little muscles.
  17. People always buy way more boat than they need. If they didn't then the expense to own it wouldn't even be a thing. Seems that the majority believe that bass fishing can only be done from a 20k+ boat with 10k worth of electronics on it. The crappie and catfish guys are even starting to live that way. Spoonbill snaggers are lined up to spend big coin to install FFS and high dollar trolling motors this year.
  18. Yeah but what's the potential cost of WEARING them ?
  19. I don't mind them if you don't 🙂 I just won't claim to love them just because others do. I don't know of anything in that HP range and vintage that is available right now..... but one could fall out of the sky tomorrow. If it does I'll let you know.
  20. What's it cost to wear felt soled boots? Anybody know?
  21. Just because it added a foot to your pecker doesn't mean that you can now call it a leg !
  22. I went out crappie fishing today in the far upper Gravois arm of Lake O 54° out in the sun at 3.30pm Once the sun went down it abruptly changed to 46.5 Was 43° when I pulled the boat out at the ramp right before dark. Yeah we caught 'em 🙂
  23. Great! 🙄
  24. Yeah, ya know....."Hypothetically" 😉
  25. At one time I thought that having a 3wt. for panfish would be a blast....so I bought one. All it did was frustrate me. The slightest breeze made casting a challenge, or almost impossible. I gave it up and decided that a 5wt. was as light as I ever wanna go with fly gear. If I was messing with little Brookies on tiny mountain streams I might reconsider.
