    Mouse/Red Squirrel

    Not only will squirrels eat a dead mouse, but so will other mice. Either that, or I had something mean hanging out in my shop. Haven't caught anything for quite a spell now so I think it was just other mice. I hate mice even more than ticks and skeeters.

    Good Deal On Starting Battery

    For comparison's sake, I just put a new $114 interstate starting battery in my boat last week. I was kind of pressed for time so I will chalk the extra $60 up to the cost of getting back on the water and #$%^&>.

    Love Notes from Lunker

    From a guy with such fine taste in calibers, I had to laugh out loud as I was actually surprised. This thread is the gift that keeps on giving. - - - Updated - - - I think the best part of all is that I can now sign all future reps with my own name and none of you will actually believe it's...

    What is the best day of fishing you've ever had?

    Every damn day I get on the water is "the best ever". Period. And yes, that included this 17 degree morning!

    Love Notes from Lunker

    Errr, that "rep" for me was ostensibly from you saying you wanted to see me naked. I damn neared sent the internet police on a wellcheck of you.

    hey shop guys - what's this called?

    I am guessing you will have a difficult time finding something like this with the curve feature built in. Have you tried to call Canvas Craft? They may be something fairly unique to their style of poles.

    Boat floor restoration

    There is something called "Ultima", or Ultimate that you can buy at Menards. It is a brush on sealant that should work well for sealing rivets from the inside of the hull. A couple summers ago a friend brought some horses out to my place and needed to use an old galvanized tank for water. The...

    Love Notes from Lunker

    Same here on the one bad rep I received. Just as a reminder, I gave you a false bad rep way back when I thought I might care about rep and was curious how it worked. Pretty sure I signed it though...accurately, I might add. V. Maybe we can have a periodic unveiling of the rep givers like...

    Love Notes from Lunker

    This kind of reminds me of how at work "change does not always equal progress". The whole rep thing is lost on me in the first place as I don't really give a flying titty sprinkles, but having the anonymous rep givers unveiled has been fun. And hah, I never even thought about bad repping...

    coming to Bismarck to pick up fish to mount...

    Buddy of mine had an Oscar that looked like that in an aquarium back in Japan. Voracious SOB, you'd almost swear the smaller baitfish we threw in to feed him were shaking once they saw who was in the aquarium with them.

    656 International Tractor

    I know this wasn't solicited, but are you really sure you want to buy a tractor that's main attraction is because it is inexpensive while it doesn't meet your needs? Just sounds like a money pit to buy something with the intent to convert it over to what you want. You already know they made...

    Boat/Pontoon Freezing into Ice

    Not an inch of ice. I'd probably start getting worried at greater than 3 inches. Just doesn't seem like an inch of ice would be strong enough to damage the hull. I'd be a little more concerned with the motor itself if it wasn't tilted up and out of the water as ice forms in the intake and...

    Landing Net - Best Bang For The Buck

    I'm sorry Up Y'oars, but that made me smile. Mostly because it was good to hear that crap like that happens to others as well. I'm still piecing together my old extendable Frabill I bought years ago. I think it's on it's 3rd netting. Dakota Tackle would be the first place I stopped in...

    marine batteries

    If I remember correctly, the lead plates get coated in PbSO4 (lead sulfate) which 1. lowers the acidity of the battery acid, and 2. is not the elemental lead required for the battery to operate. Lead sulfate is very insoluble so once the battery plates get coated in it there's no cure other...

    Missouri river snow pack feed?

    http://www.nwd-mr.usace.army.mil/rcc/reports/twregfcast.pdf These are not unusual releases out of Garrison, by any stretch of the imagination. They are a little low for this time of year, but not that unusual. As far as releases out of Garrison being determined by spring runoff. Ummm, that's...

    marine batteries

    It doesn't seem to matter what the hell I use. I get 4-5 years out of WalMart batteries, and 4-5 years out of Interstate batteries. What I need to do is start putting in "new vehicle" batteries. Seems like every new vehicle I've ever had gets 6-7 years out of its first battery and then after...

    Missouri river snow pack feed?

    Umm, what? Last time I checked Washburn is below Garrison dam and the water that runs by there is pretty much only the release out of Garrison Dam. Have they not lived there very long?
