    Nothing in south KC yet, but the bird dogs look like grazing cows out in the yard, and they're not eating grass. They'll mosey along with nose to ground and every now and then come up with a snack. Fresh hatched cicadas have always been a favorite of theirs. My wife's yip yap dog will walk around with a live one in his mouth, before eventually eating it. More than once he's let one go in the house.

    I agree, they're very sporty. I just think they're icky. Lmk where to send my man card.

    We used to crappie fish our duck hole in Cross County AR and catch those things by the bucketful. I'd cut the line and give them the jig. And you guys are tryin to catch them. 🙂

    Red buds started popping here in KC over the weekend. White bass should be starting to run up the creeks. Probably already on for you guys further south. Any reports?

    Why does it make me so happy to learn new stuff that will have absolutely no relevance to me in the future... thanks Wrench.

    We were visiting friends in Scottsdale this weekend and went to the Barrett-Jackson sale on Friday. Apparently the really expensive cars are sold on Sunday, but we saw several Chevelle SS's, old Vetts, Mustangs...all go for over $100k. I didn't see it, but was told one of those old gas pumps went for $50k+. I'm not really a car guy, but these guys put on an amazing show. The auction part is just one piece of it. Highly recommended.

    I went to local welding shop and they fabbed something similar to this on my jon boat. Mines more on the left side angling toward center. Rock solid.

    Some of y'all are so unoriginal. "Our sires' age was worse than our grandsires'. We, their sons, are more worthless than they; so in our turn we shall give the world a progeny yet more corrupt." Book III of Odes, Horace...20 BC I have 3 successful adult kids and 1 HS Senior that's going to KU next year. All were better kids in HS than their dad. My youngest son's friend group is full of smart, polite, nice kids. Yeah, they like to smoke a little weed, as it's readily available, but I don't see near the alcohol consumption that was rampant in my HS days.

    Who knows...day I got divorced was one of greatest days of my life. Nice looking boat. Hoping it works out for Bobby.

    Put me in the 1%.

    Appreciate it Wrench. Electricity not my strong suit but will give it a try. If you haven't already, you need to get the software to diagnose these newer etecs. There's a market for someone GOOD to work on them.

    If all else fails...read the manual. Will do.

    Haven't had a what's wrong with my motor thread in a while. I bought this boat and motor in 2018 w/ about 90 hours on it. It's done this since day 1. I turn the key, the motor seems to go thorough a startup process where the tach spins to the peg and back to zero, and then it cranks. Takes 5-6 seconds for it to finish thinking about cranking. Then it cranks and starts on the first hit. Does this every time. Has never failed to start and runs like a champ...once it decides to crank. Starting battery fully charged and showing 13v's on the dash. Any ideas?

    "won over 1/4 million this year" Pfffft... Wrench does better than that and doesn't have to leave the house.

    Seth Are these the ned heads on an offset ewg worm hook?
  17. Gumboot
    No. He sold the old fly fishing boat. The new one is an Express. C'mon...you gotta keep up.

    My neighbor has a water garden with a nice little waterfall. He stocks it with goldfish every year. It's very secluded, set back in a corner of his yard amongst a grove of pines. How the heron's find it is beyond me, but he sometimes has to restock mid summer.

    You can tell me how to do it and I still can't figure it out. But sure appreciate you sharing!
  20. Gumboot
    Sounds like a plan. Thanks.

    That's like 112 mph??? Holy cow...if they ever bred with mourning dove my birds per shot ratio would go to hell.

    Realizing the answer is "depends"... can I run a lund 1875 pro v bass on Tanney?
  23. Gumboot
    Math wasn't my best subject, and I must be reading that wrong. 1 hour 23 minutes 8 seconds to go 250 miles?
  24. Gumboot
    those look sharp.

    Some of the most reasonable boat rentals I've seen is on the rivers, Tanney, White... You don't need a lot of boat, you don't need fancy electronics, and fish are imminently more catchable than on a big reservoir, my opinion. Boats are an expense and, for the most part, a luxury. Only you can decide if it's worth it to you and your family.
