I'm heading north to the Boundary Waters and to Quitico.

I'll be praying for your wife. Thank you for letting us hang out and help on the boat.

Bingo! That is one of the problems.

I use mothballs, they've always worked great for me.

Sorry Glenn, I was trying to show deference to you and the moderators, that's why I didn't take the bait.

First off, moderator's feel free to move this if it needs to be moved. To anyone interested, I just got an email from St. Croix concerning upcoming sales. Cyber Sale starts on 11/26/21 at 7:AM. It ends on 11/29/21 at 7:PM. Holiday Sale (wish they had called it Christmas Sale, but I get it) starts on 12/03/21 at 7:AM. It ends on 12/15/21 at 7:PM. Happy shopping to everyone.

Sorry for your loss.

Thank you to everyone that remembered and thank you to all of my fellow Veterans. ??

Welcome to BR from the State of AR!

From an Army Vet, Happy Birthday Marines!

In the words of Henry David Thoreau, "Simplify, simplify, simplify!"

Welcome to BR! Your son's smile couldn't be any better.

Like everyone else, I really enjoy coming here. Always been treated with respect and all of my questions have been answered. I do my best to be welcoming and respectful of all opinions. Actually, other than a regional site, this is the only fishing site that I participate in.

I couldn't agree more! My sister turned my wife on to the show, she got me watching. We've purchased every season on DVD when they're released.

I jumped off of the merry go round years ago. With very few exceptions, I only throw green pumpkin and june bug in the majority of my soft plastics.

RIP Aaron Martins, thanks for the memories. Scope out the great tackle shops and fishin' holes in Heaven for the rest of us.

Glenn, can you confirm?

I own six Platinum series baitcasting rods and reels in various lengths and love them all. Lite, strong and responsive. I bought mine prior to BPS coming out with the Platinum spinning rods so I bought three Patriot series spinning rods. They're great too!

Any updates?

HA! That happened in Texas while we were there.

I have no experience with Uniroyal "trailer" tires, but I do with their car tires. Several years ago I bought a set of Uniroyal tires for my wife's Thunderbird. After six months or so, the steel belts in two of the tires broke! I took the car back to the tire store and they replaced the tires. After a few more months, the belts broke on one of the new tires. This time neither the tire store nor Uniroyal would stand behind the tires. I'll never buy Uniroyal again. As a side note, neither of us have ever had manufacturer tire failure before or after. I would go with the Kumho's or the tire that replaced the Goodyear Marathons, can't recall the name.

Okay guys, thank you for the replies.

As I've mentioned before, I've started a rewiring and updating project on my 16' X 55" river fishing rig. I've moved the T/M battery just forward of mid-ship. All the videos I've watched on installing a 60 amp breaker suggested installing the breaker in the same compartment as the t/m battery. Is that an absolute? I can do it, but it will be really tight. I'm thinking about installing the breaker closer to the t/m. Will this be an issue?

I hate to see any race track close, round or straight.

I'm 62 and rarely turn a wrench anymore. I've pretty much got every tool under the sun, floor jack's, jack stands, etc but these new vehicles are crazy to work on. I don't even change my own oil anymore. There's a garage in town that will do it for $10.00 if I supply my own oil and filter. It's worth $10 to me not to do it and I use premium filters and oil that he doesn't have.
