    Went electric

    I personally don’t care if a person likes and wants electric or gas. I figure it’s a personal preference. Which ever one floats your boat, which ever one works for you, go for it. What’s drives me crazy and makes me angry is when the government dictates which one we can use. Here in...

    Like catfish?

    A lot of catfish have a dirt or kind of mud taste. Soaking them in milk or butter milk mitigates that

    Like catfish?

    Love my catfish of all kinds. Soak the filets in butter milk, dip them in egg and roll em in seasoned bread crumbs. Fry em up, serve with hush puppies, slaw and cold beer. 🍺

    Water in fuel

    I think before you do anything you need to determine the source of the water.

    Surprise My electric car is not charged.

    The one thing that is constant is climate change. The climate has been changing for billions of years. There have been numerous ice ages and warming periods before man even existed on earth. There are places on earth that were once jungles and are now desert, places that were desert that are...

    Thoughts on Magpuls???

    Magpuls are great. I have a number of Glock pistols and I use Magpuls for all of them. For each I have 2 Glock mags that came with the guns and the rest of my mags are Magpuls. I have 20 Magpul mags for each gun. They are composite not metal but they are tough and indestructible. I saw a video...

    Whats the deal with "High Milage" conventional and synthetic motor oils???/

    ^^^^^ This. And higher viscosity to reduce metal to metal to metal wear. I have never used it. I go mostly by the motto if it ain’t broke don’t try to fix it. The most important thing you can do is change your oil at regular intervals and use the correct viscosity. What ever oil I use in a...

    Best all around hunting knife?

    I to carry a small folding Buck knife and have since my dad gave me my first pocket knife when I was 9 years old. My whole life 24/7/365 have carried a pocket knife. Only exception is when I fly. I can’t imagine not having it in my pocket. Handiest thing I own.

    Best all around hunting knife?

    The best all around hunting knife is a sharp knife. I’ve seen people with expensive several hundred dollar knives and inexpensive $40 knives and in every case the sharp knife whether cheap or expensive was the best knife. When I think of a “hunting” knife I think of a general purpose fixed...

    hi there :)

    Yep, Dad nailed it. Likely AI learning as it goes. In any event the OP clearly is not a boating aficionado.

    hi there :)

    The OP and his/her posts are strange and bizarre. Check out all 21 or so of the posts. He/has nothing to offer and offers nothing. The posts sound mechanical. I think this is either AI or a youngster playing around or actually is what is known as an internet troll. Just my 2 cents worth

    Cleaning fishing rods

    Do they work, I think so, just my opinion. It is known that fish use their sense of smell to locate food more than eyesight. Once they locate something by smell they then use their eyesight and mouth/taste. I’ve used scent and fished along side people not using scent and often (not always) been...

    Cleaning fishing rods

    The lures I use for trolling (trout, salmon, striper) I use Procure fish attractant scent on. Those various attractants really stick to the lures and leave a residue. After a month or so they turn rancid and repel rather attract fish. Thus I wash the lures I’ve used scent on every so often...

    Cleaning fishing rods

    I use Procure scent on my lures. After weeks of warm summer the scent residue on the lures will get rancid so I throw my lures in a bucket of water and unscented dish detergent. Soak, rub, rinse and all is good to go. I’ve heard of the wd40 on lures and I’ve heard for some it works. But for me...

    Cleaning fishing rods

    Correction - do not use Dawn dish soap for cleaning lures . I got mixed up. It’s good for cleaning rods but not lures as it is scented. You do not want the scent residue left on lures. No problem with rods if some scent remains. For lures I use an unscented dish soap which I can’t remember the...

    Cleaning fishing rods

    To clean lures I use Dawn dish detergent. I put some Dawn and water in a bucket, soak them and then rub the gunk and stuff off. I use the same combination to clean rods and cork handles. If the cork handles don’t get clean enough then use Mr. Clean Magic Eraser - it works. I have never had any...

    Trailblazer for Tow Vehicle?

    First I don’t want a 16 to 22 year old vehicle that I’m not the original and only owner of for a tow vehicle. That’s a real crap shoot since for the most part you don’t know the true history of the vehicle , the problems it’s experienced, and the maintenance. As far as reliability of an old used...
