    Fillet or Not?

    Revelation per day. Hang in there
  2. The mod v makes a difference turning under power. Flat bottoms just feel weird turning while “running” to me. Just an opinion

    Fillet or Not?

    I’m with you on this one. I may have misunderstood and, aren’t tilapia the bait fish that helped grow the monster Bass in falcon?? Border Shad??
  4. In hindsight, maybe more of a seiko considering it’s heritage.... just quietly does it’s job every time. Pinnacle of carburetors
  5. Honda BF40. Like Swiss watch

    Cast iron

    After reading and googling a little more, I think I’ll walnut blast and speed the stripping without harsh chemicals

    Cast iron

    I’m thinking about taking an old rough pan to work and blasting with stainless shot to get inside and out then re-seasoning. Nuts?
  8. Is the security gig over for the day?
  9. I’m saying the reference was inappropriate. Arm chair quarterbacks are everywhere including your assertion.
  10. I dunno. My kid fishes the ned a ton. Catches 100’s per year. Rarely ever use pliers. I mention this as he is rarely on top of what his bait is doing and frequently surprised by a fish being on the end of his line. Maybe it’s the small hooks he uses vs the newer longer shank and wider gap heads out there? Theory being the little hook slips back to the lips?
  11. Dude, Engineer is a title earned not something to “quote”. Rather than belittle the field of study, go try it. You can knock it after you pass calc II and thermodynamics.
  12. I only use 3 knots...but no loop knots. Same for 2lb to 30lb and up to 65 braid Surgeon with 4 wraps per side for mono-mono or fluorocarbon to the backer line on a reel. Albright special for braid to leader ( includes NanoFil). Zero failures ever with 13 wraps. Take care not to kink the fluoro before cinching. Like Mitch mentioned it flows right through eyelets Palomar to the lure. Key to a palomar is to NOT fold the line and push thru the eye. Wet it and cinch down making sure it doesn’t lay over itself.
  13. We have one. Makes great fries. Does well with frozen and breaded stuff. IMO freshly cut potatoes out of the air fryer are better than most types, quick too Have not tried anything fresh and battered.
  14. Not a knock on a program or institution and... the field of study the institution specializes in and to an extent the programs a student chooses really impacts the experience. I’ve recruited at a multiple career fairs (manufacturing and engineering) with little lunacy witnessed. Rolla has its share of odd however, it was suppressed for career fairs That said I avoided the section of campus with most of the BA programs when I was in school because of the same crap being discussed here. Heard a quote that I’ll screw, something like “ your freedom to be you includes my freedom to be free from you”
  15. I have to ask about the other 5 or every leap 6th day per year. 360 sounds like a story that needs telling. Short garage? Alternative trailer with 1 7/8”?
  16. Guys, thanks for the interest. I believe I’m down to the war eagle and mojo. If it changes I’ll update.
  17. Decoys
  18. If you can give an idea of what you are after I could put a package together. How and where he hunts would help. I’m guessing I have nearly 20 dozen here.
  19. Full bodies are big foot mallards in 6 slot bags pm me an offer i have a ton of dekes. From magnums to woodies. A few dozen Texas rigged (mix of pintails, mallard, gadwall and feeders.) if you are looking for something specific I will separate out. I’d make a smoking deal on Canada floaters. They eat up real estate
  20. Layouts. Make a reasonable offer and put them to use
  21. Asking $6k
  22. Springfield
  23. Have 97 war eagle 648 LDSV with a 40 Honda 4stroke. Fantastic rig. $6k Otter Final attack layout boat cabelas layout blind with waterproof bottom tree stands decoys; metric ton of ducks a couple dozen Canada floaters, field shell decoys, snow rags, full body mallards, mojos and much more. Mostly G&H and greenhead gear all under roof and rigged PM if interested in anything. Used to have 2 private lakes and made sure to have extra gear to slip away to public ground when conditions called for it.
  24. So, the lake that the COE built was high which hurt businesses that exist because the lake was built? I’m guessing the engineers you disdain have similar sentiments.
