Curious about Power Pole Move.
fishinwrench replied to rps's topic in Tips & Tricks, Boat Help and Product Review
Well they FINALLY got the weight down👍 Way better than those ridiculously heavy other options that are causing the bows of boats to suffer. The props seem to be breaking a bit too easily. Best carry 2 spares......and not just ONE. -
Interesting study on smallmouth bass removal
fishinwrench replied to Quillback's topic in Conservation Issues
From my perspective they are the first & MOST LIKELY to screw things up. Biologists and their "experiments" have likely caused more problems than they have solutions, over the last 100 years. -
PSA Killer Bees in South Texas
fishinwrench replied to netboy's topic in New News and General Discussion
Curious. What is it about "Killer bees" that make their attacks potentially deadly? I got attacked by what I assumed were yellow jackets a couple years ago , and suffered 11 stings all at once on my neck, back, and arms. That SUCKED ! and had me a bit worried for a bit, but other than the pain I never suffered any noticable reactions to it. I knew a guy that worked for the phone co. that opened a pedestal and got pummeled by bees.....it didn't kill him but it ended his career, and he went on disability afterwards. -
Noco genius onboard charger
fishinwrench replied to fishinwrench's topic in Tips & Tricks, Boat Help and Product Review
Most all automatic chargers cycle to 15v repeatedly.....which works fine, but generates a lot of heat inside the charger itself. This one monitors the battery voltage and coaxes it up more gradually, 0.3v at a time, and could likely lessen the boiling, and obviously reduces the heat. It might take a little longer but I think it is way safer. And probably a better way to maintain a battery. The "12v Repair" function just feeds it 12.6v for 4 hours, then goes through a normal charge function......and Hey, it WORKS ! 👍 -
If you've followed any of my past rants/opinions you might remember that I have never been a fan of ANY onboard battery chargers.......Well here's one that I'm becoming a fan of. Does exactly what it's supposed to, doesn't get hot, and has lasted 4 years so far. 👍 Has even saved a 1 year old cranking battery that had discharged completely because an accessory was left on & I was ready to replace.

I guess this sweetheart is ready for a new home. 6000.00 She could use fresh carpet.....Had that all traded for & lined up, but the guy let his wife talk him into getting a COVID shot and he fell over dead 3 days later 😥 Everything else is top notch 👍. She's caught a lot of fish ! They don't build them like THIS anymore.

There's been a tit or two shaken out in that bad boy also. 👍
-
It really is. It's a Table Rock/Bull Shoals boat, so it isn't beat to hell like these Lake O rigs are. How it rides depends on how you drive it. You can either cruise and sip coffee.....or shake your wife's tits out of her shirt. 😅
-
Structurally sound & no major issues.....but the more I polish, nitpick and tinker with it the more the selling price is gonna go up 😊 If interested in a really fine, and truly easy project rig..... Come check it out, or gimme a shout 👍 6000.00 today Or I'll sell you my old Ranger 350V for about the same price and keep this one. 🤷♂️

It was SUPPOSED to be an upgrade, partially to support the winter pond stocking city boy program...... "because THEY pay taxes too".....but that didn't work out, so here we are !
-
If you account for the first failed hatchery upgrade....... definitely yes.
-
Nah, and there will be a flood, tornado, or some other "act of God" that they will blame it on.
-
I think, at this point, that if you believe that one day soon they'll all of a sudden kick it into gear and get serious about completing the project....... you are living in a dream world.
-
We were down there last week, from mid-week thru the weekend. The whole place is in shambles and nobody appeared to be working at all. Whoever is in charge of that project should be ashamed of themselves. 🙄 It looks like they hired the same crew that Charlie Reading did.

Thoughts on Metal Baits for Freshwater Fishing?
fishinwrench replied to professioneat's topic in General Flyfishing Topics
Depends on what you're fishing for, where you're fishing, ect.... Mann's Little George tail spinners can cast a mile and can be lethal when targeting White bass in open water, or around tailwaters. I got schooled on big "Dixie Jet" flutter spoons a few years ago.....and that is FUN ! Everything from big bass to giant flatheads in 10-40 feet will smoke those things. -
It's just as well that I wasn't invited to that meal....... because 1/3 of a groundhog would only arouse my appetite, without bedding it back down. 😊
-
I bet the Ukrainians about $#!t their pants ! 😅
-
Allegedly left Whiteman headed West, and crossing over the Pacific as if headed straight for Ukraine. Interesting route if the plan was to drop fire in Iran 🤷♂️
-
I think those were tracked decoys.
-
They might like to shop at Walmart or Dollar General !
-
When cats show up around here they are 100% feral/wild. My customers boats always smell like fish, and I can't have them scratching around in there...... So they get one chance to scram for good, then if they return they get pelleted. I always feel bad about it, because they are just doing what nature intends.....but I just can't have that going on here.
-
Yeah a pee hole problem could definitely put things into limp mode.
-
Hell I was surprised that it picked it up so smoothly and just flew off with it. It wasn't really a full grown one.....but it wasn't a little baby by any means. Half the size of a 5lb. Coffee can !
