  1. Just like it says... Last year it was getting sloppy, this year the gauge either shows full in or full out, there is no in between. What do I start checking???? Connections, wiring, etc etc...... Even though a guy can still feel where the trim is, I'd rather have the gauge work.
  2. Well that makes sense! He has an aluminum hull, mines glass. Can you have a metal tank in a glass boat? What can happen if the ground is no good? I have the original owners manual for my 86 boat and says nothing about it in there. (I'm kind of an owners manual freak) Tim
  3. My uncle had to have a boat surveyed for insurance and part of the survey was checking fuel tank ground. He said it was a good idea to have it done annually. Am I thinking of this right when I'm thinking, just making sure it has its ground and the cable isn't green weenied/corroded????
  4. Mama say's she has bunnies too. 5 and the Doe must go!!! They Satin/Dutch mixes! Another great pet..... (I personally haven't found a fish big enough to make these good bait yet)
  5. We have: White Pekin-all white like Donald Duck Black Swede-Black with white chest's Cayuga-All Black with Beetle Green tint These are all non-flying ducks. We have 13 acres they run around on and come back throughout the day and at night! Ducklings run $2.00 a duck-got a few right now and will have more in 2 weeks-they in the incubator Ducklings can double as Musky bait...hehehehhe.... PM me for info or pics or anything. Duck eggs are also available if you want to incubate your own. Its great educational for the kids! Easy to do too! $2.00 a dozen. They great for baking!!!
  6. You can actually pay securely with a credit card and not have a pay pal account Mike. I couldn't remember my PayPal password and didn't want to go through the rig a ma raw of lost password request.........
  7. Wellcrafts 33' Coastal!!! http://www.wellcraft.com/Boats/Boats_Detail.asp?c=1&b=202 The reason's why will become evident after "checking" this out! Yea Baby!!!
  8. How could you have gone there and not gotten the name...... Geeesh...... (hehehehe)
  9. We used to Sturgeon fish St. Clair when I was a kid..... Hang out all night long in the 80ft holes. Giant treble hooks. When the bell rings its not always Sturgeon..... MUD PUPPIES!!!!!
  10. I think stacking is a pain in the arse as well as being inefficient. I'll use fixed sliders and I'll vary the spread on lines. Fixed at 5 ft on 1 side and 7-10 on the other or whatever...spread 'em out and mix 'em up. My Sunday story, the one double I had on 1 line was on a pair of watermelons 5 ft apart.......
  11. 28 days. The ole lady incubates ducks. They 28 days too. She has 13 pheasant eggs in there this time too!!! 23-28 days for these! Tim
  12. Sounds a little like..... I have a rookie on the team this year.... Had an instance at about 9:30 where the porta potty called.... Get a double on the free slider rig..... Rookie has the pole....doesn't know quite how to work the drag yet.... He panics...., I come out with pants down to the knees..... He's got the top fish to the top of the water and the bottom (slider) fish doin his thing.....hands me the pole...just in time to feel 'twang' lose the bigger of the two.....net the top one..... Had 15 lbs of fish on and only netted the 3 lb ho.....
  13. T'was a good time and I don't mean to rush summer by but.... COME ON JUNE!!!!
  14. Firestone doesn't make Steeltex anymore. Good luck with your search.
  15. Fished the West Michigan Fishing League Tourney and had a great time. (Exactly the reason I want to fish with these guys) Waited for them to tell me where to fish and started catching fish!! Thanks Rich for putting this on and Thanks Gold Coast for letting us weigh in there. (Was all fun and games til the fuzz showed up) Took a nice box of Coho home and a little King too! Was in 130-160 ft of water with the guys and catching fish everywhere between 30-50 ft down. The usual colors, yotes, dolphins, blue bubble! Didn't break no records or anything but had a blast and ready for the next one already!!! Tim

  19. heheheh... I always tell the ole lady I'm going to douche the boat but I didn't think it was litterally.....heheheh... Tim. Thanks Mike! ps. you use that on the little boat, or the big boat. thats a whole lot of vinegar for that big boat in't it!
  20. Got a ton of stuff I need to do but..... Think its going to be spent getting a certain boat ready to rock! Just now realized I forgot to take my compass out....... Bad Tim........
  21. Every year i spend time wheeling the boat pretty and by the end of the year, the chalk returns. I'm a mechanical guy, not a body/gelcoat guy. I've read somewhere that someone had the gelcoat cleaned and sealed. Anyone...............tips/tricks.........Anyone......!!!! Tim
