Mine are tied to the roof rack that is usually sufficient. I have left them at some accesses unattended with a bicycle chain thru the rack and some part of the yak. Of a night, piece of string tied to my toe and the boat usually does the trick. I have never had to use lethal force to get one back yet. Depending where you camp, you should not have any problems. Most state parks are friendly people and have rangers patrolling all night to keep people honest.

I have owned Winchesters since I was a kid, first shotgun was a 20 ga 1400. The SX series comes apart when you uncrew the magazine cap. 2 pins hold the trigger group in. You can take it apart in a blind, hose it out with Breakfree Cleaner, and be back in business in a few minutes if needed. The alloy receiver and Duracote finish are pretty tough. The old adage that the gun shoots better dirty is just another excuse to abuse a gun by not cleaning it properly. Just like washing the car and changing the oil, all equipment needs maint. to run properly. Duck hunting introduces seeds, bits of blind material, mud, and water into the guns internals that end up with rust and malfunction. Most modern shotguns break down to essential components quickly and there are wonderful aerosol cleaners to blast it out. I always stand my gun near a vent for several days to dry it out then clean it if it was not too bad. If I sit out all day in a rain or snow storm, I take it apart and clean it when I get home. The Super Black Eagle is a design that has been around for 20 years and works great. If I remember right, it is a recoil design instead of a gas piston action like the SX3. Gas pistons are sometimes more sensitive to lighter or heavier loads and can sometimes fail to cycle. The Vinci is a gas piston. It is a newer design that has only been out for a few years. Just because we have not seen any issues does not mean there are not any. Search the net for reviews.

I have others locally that have the same problem. Blooming at knee high and staying that way all summer. Except, mine is not blooming. I have planted Clemson Spineless and Dwarf Long Pod.

Justin, we have pretty good luck with them in the gunshop that I work at from time to time. No problems that I am aware of. Neat design and function, but top dollar. Kinda tricky to assemble till you get the hang of them. I have a Winchester SX2 and my hunting buddy bought a Winchester SX3 last year. Both shoot like a charm, soft recoil on 3". They eat everything I throw in them with no hiccups. I even shoot a few 3 1/2 inchers for geese and turkey. His Beretta Extrema froze up one morning a few years back while my SX2 kept chuggin in the minus 10 weather. He traded it off last season for the SX3. You can't go wrong with a Super Black Eagle either. I would probably go that route if I wanted a Benelli.

I think that was the one that was on. It popped up on one of the new channels that Dish throws out with Starz Cinemax package. But it was filmed wide screen, so the whole move was only about a foot tall on a 36" screen.

Wild plums. Flower is small and white in the spring. Bark on base of tree is slick and dark. Does not get very big and spreads like wildfire.in the yard with sprouts. More pit that fruit, big seed? Makes good jelly.

How about a pic. I have been looking for one to make a duck blind.

I have not eat a beet since I was a kid. Never acquired a taste for them. I did eat the pickled eggs that mom used to put in the beet pickle juice.

I watered all summer and have a nice bill to show for it. I have several big tomatoes but the possums are working them over. I have trapped 3 of them so far. We were out of town last weekend and the garden did not get water for 3 days and it was hot. I lost my cucumbers, squash, and a few tomatoes in the main garden. My okra is still knee high and has not bloomed. I don't know what has went wrong with it, it did the same thing last year. Fall squash and beans are coming along. I still get a few cucs off some vines shaded by the house. My patio tomatoes are just now putting on. They were some little frostbite plants that have struggled all summer. Peppers have not produced. I hope we get some rain this week, it has been a few weeks since we have had a drop. The yard greened up for a little while, now it is back to crunchy brown stuff.

That would probably work. I was thinking more of violins from him though.

Chief packs sticks and strings for self defense.

Boga type grips work good. My buddies know why I have a pair on my boat or on my person at all times when fishing for toothy fish. I had a buddy "lip" a walleye not knowing what he had on the end of his line. Cut him up good.

Was scanning the channels tonight and came across Apocalypse Now. Still a great movie. Well directed, great actors. Martin Sheen looks so much like his son Charlie.

Yeee Haa! The race is on.

Beer, Lunchable, Lays Stackers, Water, Ritz Peanut Butter Crackers, and maybe a Mtn. Dew. And a small handgun of high capacity with a few extra rounds.

Just kidding on tucking them in, my vines are about 8' tall. I have a hard time reaching the top of them. Bees are working good this morning in the cooler temps.

What a change in the weather, gonna drop to 56 degrees tonight. That is half of the high last Friday. This hot weather has done a number on the ole garden. Spring squash are gone. Green beans have been frying in the sun. Tomato vines look sad and quit blooming a few weeks back when the heat started. Cucumber vines are the same. Good news is the fall squash and radish look good. Fall cucumbers are coming along, they may make a few before frost. Tomatoes should start blooming again with the cooler weather as well as the beans. Having a hard time getting the lettuce to come up, I think the seed was roasting in the dirt. How is everyone else coming along??

Ebay would be a good one to watch. My buddy found his stolen cell phone on there and bought it back.

Even that rule is stretched pretty thin this year. I dragged the yak thru several riffles on the Spring River last weekend, something I have never had to do. And the fishing is poor for the most part. With the low water, the stocking is only taking place at the boat ramps if they are doing any at all. No float thru stockings are taking place that spreads the fish out along the river.

That should be the rule with anyone fishing. You should always be aware of your surroundings. You always check to see your backcast and make sure it does not go into a tree don't ya?

I like Shy Pokes, they are the transition carrier of the little white worms in bass that look like maggots when you filet them. Since the Shy Pokes have gained protection, the worms increase, more people toss the bass back as they are unfit to eat. Good Shy Pokes. Bad Pterdactyls. Nasty fish killing machines. And that dang screeching, squacking noise they make.

A landowner on a Scenic Riverway or NFS river may face different rulings Justin. But a landowner on a smaller stream that does not disturb the actual stream or course does not have to get a permit, especially if he owns both sides of the stream.

I am lost. I thought there would be something about navels somewhere in the thread. Nothing like a tight firm ab with a nice navel and maybe some naughty belly button jewelry whilst reading to distract you from what you were going to say in the first place.

You can also wade the river above where the spring runs in and get in some warm water fishing for smallies and goggle eye. There is a good trail, part of the McCormack Lake section that goes up to a local CCC lake.

Probably not, if you are trespassing while making a meth lab. What you may have witnessed was just a farmer making an access to get water from a stream since his ponds have dried up, making a spot for livestock to water, or just clearing out a spot for access. You have to get a permit to mine gravel for sale, but not for private use. Unless there is a major disturbance I would not worry much. I doubt if anything would be done about it.
