    Jolicious knows a great guy. He's trying to get me to go with him. He hit a stump and ruined his lower unit on his outboard and they cut him a check immediately He has been very impressed with their customer service. Shoot him a private message and he can get you the contact info. Tell him I sent ya! He loves his insurance agent. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
  2. I agree with F&F. I still think it may be whites but crappie is a more probable scenario and if F&F says something. .....I listen. :-) Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
  3. School of whites I think. Too large for crappie. SOOOOOOO JEALOUS of your graph. Freakin' sweet! One day, I'll get structure scan technology. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

  5. I'm replying to this thread as an update. I just took my boat up to fishinwrench Friday and got to did a little fishing while I was there. Glen is a great guy and very knowledgeable about outboards. I can usually read people pretty well and I have a very good feeling about Glen. You can tell when someone is giving you BS or when someone is straight-up a top notch guy. Just as an example, I needed an out of state license (only $7) for the day and while getting my permit and some snacks, Glen picked up the tab and refused to let me give him any money for it. I was his guest and I felt he rolled out the red carpet. I'm not saying he does that for everyone but you can just tell when someone is a class-act and little things like that go a long way. So if anyone is needing a good mechanic and wants someone with good/fair pricing, someone that will work with you and willing to offer advice for free......make the drive to Lake of the Ozarks. You won't be disappointed. I for one have found a good fishing buddy and a good mechanic. Some mechanics are in it for the money, Glen does it because he enjoys it. Money is nice too but that pays for his bills. Lol! I can't wait to get photos of the rebuild. I feel like a father in the waiting room pacing waiting for news. Lol! How sad is that!!! And how many guys take time to send you photos if a rebuild? I like it because I can see the fun of it, learn more about my motor and I collect photos of before and after for my restoration progress. Thanks Glen!!!! Oh and I'm bringing you some War Eagle spinnerbaits when I pick up the boat. Let me know what colors/ weights work best for you. Least I can do.

  7. Going to see fishinwrench to get the Cane Cutter running again! :-)

  8. That's really low and begging for a new lower unit! Thanks for the heads up. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
  9. I agree. If the engine is tuned and built for it, yes no worries but either manufactures are claiming an easy out on warranty work and blaming ethanol or there is some truth to the myth. I read an article in Bassmaster a couple of years back where the outboard manufacturers were siting issues with E gas stating they didn't have a chance to design their motors for it and now they are scrambling. If the motor is designed for it, great. If not, seems a risk to me but I'm not a mechanic so I can't really weigh in on it at an informed level. I see both sides of the argument of propaganda and potential hazards. If I can pay about the same amount for non-E fuel, I'll go that route till the dust settles. :-) It's just like global warming. No one can prove it for sure. MIT scientists all agree its not possible to prove. Global fluctuation in temp is probably a more sustained theory but cannot be proven. Knowing something about this subject matter at a professional level, I agree. If you cannot accurately calculate a carbon footprint, then how can you mandate carbon credits to polluting manufactures? Its a tax on a polluting company with a fancy name. If you can't calculate a credit, how can you charge a credit? Until it's all settled out over time, I'll go on the safe side and look for non-E as a precaution. Even if it has E in it as Stump said, I'd like to think I tried to prevent any issues. Lol!!

  10. Looks like some yuppie wine bottle warmer and maybe some elbow warmers to me. :-) I haven't a clue. Did these come with something? Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
  11. So I got all the way to the bottom where they were claiming."millions" in numbers early in the blog but the end of the blog outed that the survey was based on a little o er 1,000 people in a phone based survey sample. Seems way off and skewed data to take such a small sample and compare it with millions. Too many variables. I do think E15 is a bad thing. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
  12. Saw this just now and thought I'd share. I haven't read it yet but I plan on reading it. http://blog.powerblocktv.com/?p=8679 Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    Welcome to NWA and welcome to Rogers! There are a good group of folks here and there is more than enough lake for everyone. I would volunteer but I'm taking my boat in for a rebuild Friday. :-/ I bet there are some here that would help out. Do you have a boat? What practice? Medicine? Hope to see you here again. Beaver is a very tough lake to fish. It varies from hour to hour and day to day. What worked yesterday may or may not work tomorrow. At least that's how it is for me. Once you get a solid pattern, it works for a while with some adjustments. I think finding fish is key to this lake. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
  14. I just passed by Andersons headed towards Evoca and it was posted as E10. I think someone mentioned it as non-ethanol fuel. Just thought I'd mention this. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
  15. That's good info. Now I'm curious and must try this I'm all my gas cans for my mower and my boat. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
  16. True. Most anglers on SWEPCO are Beaver refugees like myself. Lol! And we do like to keep our secrets on that lake. Just a thought. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

  18. Don't take this too personal Glen but........I love you! So glad you are taking care of me. I just know she's going to put like a kitten when its done and that it will last. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
  19. Well crap. I can't turn that down! Guess I have to buy a MO license. Poor me. Haha!! Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
  20. Joe needs all the tips anyone can spare. I can say that since we're bros. And I could use the tips as well. Hehe! Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
  21. Let's hope not. I think its just a bad piston ring and the rebore and new cylinders, Carb kit and gaskets is all I need. A full Carb rebuild might not be a bad idea but only if he thinks I need it. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
  22. I'll be there after lunch Dec 7th btw. Hope you still have an open spot for her. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
  23. Bringing you my rig next week. Counting down the days! Lol! So ready to get my motor finally rebuilt and get her back on the water running good as new. There are fish to be caught dagnabit!! Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
  24. So all gas stations have alcohol in them. Of all gas stations have ethanol? Ergo.....you'd better make sure your outboard can handle alcohol? Is that what I'm reading here fishinwrench? So it really doesn't matter which station you go too.....its more about can your outboard handle it due to the kind of gaskets and equipment you have? Trying to follow this. Its getting interesting.... Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
  25. Right side as in if you are looking at the ramp correct? There are two floating docks. One on the right side towards the back of the cove and one towards the main channel. The one on the right near the dock correct?
