  1. That may be rubbing them wrong.
  2. I am down to three hives now. And T Mobile has dropped the ball when they started advertising their internet service. My drops off to dial up speed at about 6 every nite. No video here. Big drought coming, glad I did not put the garden out at the farm. We had 2.5 inches in May. And it all dropped at one time and run down river.
  3. Tdl cops like to watch what comes off that river. Lakes are usually residents, river is not. I have watched them try to stop a boat on lake from one of dams that did not have sticker. It was entertaining. Is the Mounts guy shuttling people from Tdl access?
  4. They were an odd duck. Buddy gave me one, I gifted it elsewhere.
  5. Wayne County Missouri. My 2008 Tracker Crappie Pro is almost double what I pay on my 2004 Sequoia that pulls it. There is a penalty anywhere for luxury items. Downside, response to a fire takes 30 minutes to an hour. Law enforcement is normally at least 60 to 90 minutes out. You get what you pay for possibly. I pay extra for Air Evac, just in case I need Medical. Ambulance usually gets lost.
  6. The homeowners in TDL have to pay for those stickers, and the ones that enforce that. I buy my sticker from my resident owner buddy that lives there so I have a pass. I can't even launch my boats there in lakes without sticker and insurance. They watch the boat ramps on the lakes like the river access. We always use his. But, they keep a clean neighborhood. Better that most of the local community rif raff in the area. Was that $5 a head to launch at Mounts? Pretty good cash for doing nothing but refurbing an old gravel operation along a county road and county bridge. I have used the location to wade fish, pull out from floats above, and put in for floats below free of charge for many years. Probably going on 30 years now.
  7. Little campers are hard to find.
  8. Wow, my whole fleet, 17.5 08 Tracker Crappie Pro, 16' 89 Panfish Special jet, and 15' Express little jet only cost me around $60 a year in property tax. 3 year boat tags are $31 now, permanent trailer license is around $70, forever one time. I spend more money on batteries, tires, and general maint. than what you are worried about. They are all rigged like I want them. Screw the insurance unless the area where you go requires it. The way I see it, less than one crappy rental boat.
  9. We started to do that on Sunday, buddy ended up in Sullivan instead. How is access at Mounts this year? Many floaters this weekend?
  10. Somebody need to show him how to trim a motor
  11. Looks like a hellaovaweekend. We had some good fishing on Sunday, took the grandkid to MDC lake and caught 2 limits of nice bluegill and 4 cats. Weather was perfect this weekend. Low humidity, perfect temps. NO Hurricane Winds.
  12. That awning you put on will kill your back cast. Why limit yourself to roll casting?
  13. Thats a good looking color. May just hit the spot.
  14. Since they dropped the water to protect the dam, its half as big as it used to be. And always off color. Never CLEAR. Most blame the Taum Sauk incident. I think it has to do with lowering main pool several feet and wake washing up all of the built up sediment from the years before. I have never did much there and its only 20 minutes away on the weekend.
  15. Mighty pricey double wide
  16. I am a long way from any river or stream, must be coming off ponds nearby. One flew in truck this morning when I opened the door to leave for work. Let him out passenger window.
  17. River boats only need traditional sonar and down scan. Those side scan ducers are huge. Watch the weight buildup. Keep it light just in case you stuff it on a bar.
  18. I have noticed more than normal. Been wet spring.
  19. We used them to feed cattle, then horses. Stood up well. One at the farm has to be 20 years old.
  20. I have one of those feeders somewhere at the farm. Never thought of using them like that.
  21. It was under water 2 years ago when I wanted to fish there, could not tell if there was a ramp.
  22. What are you looking for and what area are you living in?
  23. Its only money, can't take it past this life.
  24. Get ready to break out another $1000
  25. Build them out of wire, lets plenty of air in. But you will have to wait a while for composted dirt.
