  9. My son-in-law has an older Merc and we like to have NEVER got it lined up and together. FINALLY!!! Myself, I don't think he was holding his mouth right :-/ ... skillet
  10. Like TD said "Time in the seat". I bought a sonar unit not too long ago and finally got the mechanics headed in the right direction. Always considered myself as "roadkill on the highway of technology" but if you don't learn everything about your unit, it's not worth the space it takes up (or whatever you end up spending ... skillet
  11. Another nice memory and a good story for retelling ... skillet

    Do the folks that make the paint also make the epoxy? I take it that the turning keeps the epoxy from running :-/? I have a couple of rotisserue motors from old grills ... skillet

    Have just lately started visiting this board regularly, got me interested in doing repaints. Have done a lot of cabinet work and did my own finishes. Have 2 compressors, large 60gal (5hp) and small portable 2gal (1 1/2hp). Both have regulators and filters. Am not sure how far they will turn down. Spraying lacquer or contact cement takes more pressure than ya'll use. Newbie questions ? 1. Remove original finish (sand)? 2.Container or gravity type gun? 3.Apparently Smith is best paint? 4.Anything helpful I might read? 5.Am going to have to come up with something for turning while drying. Do I need heat to help with drying? THANKS for any help ... skillet
  14. fourbizz, why take the chains off :-/? skillet
  15. my mistake, TheHammer84 ;D! Can't get away with nuthin' around here ... skillet
  16. and if that doesn't work, the chains will get tangled in the hooks. Well worth the price ... skillet
  17. I got one in the "Sexy Shad" color. Haven't go a chance to give it a try yet. I don't use a trailer hook. I'm usually throwing spinners in stuff almost as bad as where I'll throw jigs ... skillet
  18. You Sir, are a scholar and Southern Gentleman! Thanks ... skillet
  19. Thought it was GREAT! Actually ducked after reading it ;D... skillet
  20. Most all of my fishing has been done from the bank and REALLY overgrown banks at that. Like the other members said, shorter rods are a lot more forgiving in those situations. I'm fairly tall (6'4") with 6" arm reach (picture a 210lb spider monkey ;D) and still feel more comfortable with 6' to 6 1/2' rods. I use 5 1/2' for topwater. Having said all that, if you can dedicate 1 set-up to flippin' and pitchin', that would the only time I think a 7' or more would be that much better ... skillet
  21. "Cameras and scales have bad karma, they tend to scare the better fish. Ask anyone, once you start weighing bass, nearly all your fish are smaller than the one's you are use to catching!" RW Whole lot of truth to that statement ... skillet
  22. I've bought these at Bass Pro. They look like a finish nail only segmented. You can separate them at the segments for more or less weight. You push them into the tail of the worm ... skillet
  23. It had to be a solid 6lb at least ... skillet
  24. I guess truth is stranger than fiction. Most of those sounded like a Marx brother's routine ... skillet
  25. A boat is a hole in the water that you pour money into ... skillet
