  1. Yeah whenever a storm is brewing they go all apocaliptic. But on a normal day they'll tell you the wind will be a lovely 8-10mph breeze out of the SSW.... then when you get out on the water it blows at 20+ Never fails.
  2. Be darn if I'd get into a gun fight over some money that's insured, and isn't even mine. What makes ya think someone is gonna walk up on ya and try to take it, verses taking you out from 50-60 yards and grabbing the loot on their way out of there? Wouldn't that be the way to take something from a dude that's wearing a leather jacket in the middle of July?
  3. Has anyone taken the initiative to tear one down and learn what is causing them to seize up? I'm not a Shimano guy but I'll take a few SWAG's.... Spool shaft level-wind hydraulic lock? (drill a tiny vent hole so it can push the moisture out). One way bearing hanging up or skidding? (squeeze it just a bit so that the cage is not perfectly round, or pry out just one of the needles) You should be able to remove the head/bail assembly and substitute a washer or something similar in its place to determine if the binding is in the drive, or the driven mechanism.
  4. Chief, LMFAO ! Took a few seconds, then it hit me.
  5. It was sporting. It's all fun and games until somebodys weiner falls off
  6. I'm beginning to think that FFer is actually anti-CCW, posing as an advocate to drive home the undeniable points made by several on here. I'm done.....again.
  7. Oh I understand why. It has to do with that opinion of mine that you disapprove of. I see that kinda crap all the time and that's why I know that a large margin (too large) of folks that CCW, shouldn't be.
  8. IF we get what everyone seems to think we'll get, it'll pull them out of their Summer holes and put them on a killer shallow bite for about 2 weeks on the lakes. The rivers, once they become fishable again will fish decent on the lower stretches, and poor on the upper reaches. I'm skeptical about any significant amount of rain in my area of the state. Isaak seems to be a media pimped topic more than anything. "Stay Tuned"!
  9. Regardless of who compiled that list, Which one of those CCW incidents would you care to dispute first ? If there were anywhere close to an equal number of crimes thwarted, or people saved by CCW holders I could be alot more tolerant of the idea. But my crappy opinion is still that it is a stupid pointless, and potentially dangerous head game. Keep one in your truck if you choose, but carrying it around in your underwear just cuz you can is freakin stupid.
  10. Right. Playing a game... and most of the pieces are missing. If your real motive was to protect yourself and your family and be prepared, then you'd all be sporting kevlar and helmets, walking around looking like little gladiators....But you don't because that's uncomfortable and makes you feel like an idiot. But packing the gun, that feels cool.
  11. I know, they are so humanlike, hu?
  12. Yeah me too, but it's only 1/2 mile to the water.
  13. Dry rot usually gets to mine long before the tread is gone. But I can usually get 3 years out of them.
  14. LMAO! This comment cracked me up At least he gets to exercise that outrageous guide insurance. I'd take the money for a replacement fender, then do a hammer and bondo job on it..... might cover next months premium.
  15. Not a HANDGUN, No. But a trusty ol' iron sighted Thutty-Thutty and a Winny 1200 loaded with 3" #4B's ? Sure! Hope there's plenty of buzzards then, cuz I ain't touching them even after their dead.
  16. Yep, and he's lucky she lacked more imagination ! Greasy, bet that incident never made the news. Wow, I have seen similar, but not with near enough witnesses.
  17. Gavin's pic brought back a fond memory. I once rode a canoe down a sledding path (called Widowmaker hill). I thought I'd be able to steer by dragging the paddle on one side or the other.... still not clear on why that doesn't work. The plan was to get a hilarious video to stick on TY, but the canoe got sideways, I tried to "rudder it back straight" and rolled. I almost broke my neck so I didn't try a second run. Being in a kayak though, with your butt closer to the ground it should work great.
  18. Oh I gotta hear this! What were you reported to have done that caused them to draw down on you without a questioning session first? ,....................................................................................................... The situation that I'm most curious about is; What happens when you are carrying and someone engages you in a fist fight? Ya know, cuz you allegedly touched his girlfriends butt as she passed by, or whatever. Do you defend yourself physically with your hands and feet, or do you go for the pistol in fear that he might get it from you during the scrap? That's a real world situation, right? And one where you're probably better off without the gun.
  19. Wow, that's pretty crazy. I woulda figured several other streams would go dry before the OF. I suppose a good portion of it is lost underground along various stretches. Find the upwellings and you would probably find some nice fish.....but so could the meat eaters.
  20. A bear ate a pig that ate peaches ? s#!tty pics
  21. Pig? Where's the nearest peach tree?
  22. Why are you putting Jack and I's quotes in a catagory together ? So, you see someone shoot another, then turn and walk away..... Do you drop him? If so, keep in mind that someone behind you is gonna see it....and all they might know is that YOU just shot someone. And then the guy who is just getting out of his car when that guy drops you....What does HE know? Before you can say "holy piss" you've got 5 guys bleeding in the parking lot, when otherwise the original shooter prolly would have driven home, had a breakdown and turned himself in before breakfast the next day.
  23. Huh? I'm just talkin, Lee. Actually this topic was beat to death (with news links of the incidents mentioned included) on here last Winter. I just have a hard time avoiding a rehash when it concerns something that is a pet peeve of mine. I guess I feel like if I can bring just one self deputized vigilante commando back down to reality that possibly it could become contagious and in some way make the world a better place. Or maybe I just get off on picking fights with those more heavily armed, who have completely opposite ideas about how to make the world a better place.
  24. KC, Holy crap man, you coulda been raped! Good thing someone tossed them a ball ! LMAO
