Preparation H is often recommended by tattoo artists as a treatment to aid healing of a new tattoo. The active ingredient in Preparation H shrinks capillaries and reduces blood flow to the freshly tattooed area. This allows for the inked site to heal faster, as reduced blood flow calls for less touching and rubbing, and therefore less interference with the ink setting. Apply a thin layer of Preparation H over the tattooed area of skin, no more than twice a day, and for no more than 2-3 days Read more: Uses for Preparation H | eHow.com http://www.ehow.com/how_4690565_uses-preparation-h.html#ixzz1JaknvWAw And this too......

I can't imagine that the gas, although treated with seafoam, sitting all winter didn't help the issue either. I can't wait to take it out this weekend and see if the plugs corrected the problem. BTW, since the switch to the new format I haven't seen a post anywhere from Catt or Way2Slow?? too busy fishing i guess.

That would make sense. Most of the lakes I fish are idle only or are small enough that I don't need to plane out. Hopefully, this weekend I will take her out and see if the new plugs have corrected the issue

In my previous post about my engine dying (lost my MoJo )I took the boat home and decided to check and change the plugs. All six plugs were black and fouled. Can this be a direct cause or sign of carb issues? The boat ran great all last summer and I never had a loss of power or sign of issue. Again, its a 96 Johnson 150. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Jeez Rhino I hadn't even noticed until you mentioned it. Now I am going to have a complex.. "did I get a positive, or a negative?" I might actually need therapy after this to correct my lack of self esteem. In Fact, I am going to have my mom file a lawsuit against the keyboard company for causing me pain and anguish over what to type all while not eating a peanut butter sandwich and drinking cold coffee from McDs. Decaf of course because adding too much sugar may make me obese.......

GO REDWINGS!!!!!!!!! Their issue is going to be spotty goaltending. They are just going to have to outscore their opposition. Can't stand Jimmy Howard but can watch Datsuk and Lidstrom all day.

The skipper taking over for Cpt.Phil seems like a D&*#... And jr. seemed like he was high as a kite when he got back on the boat. Just my Opinion

GMan is correct. Power loading is prohibited in almost every Mi public waterway. I don't really understand how you need to powerload to get the boat on a trailer?? IF your trailer is backed in correctly just idling onto the trailer should seat it enough that all you need is a few cranks of the winch and out you go.... Maybe my boat is just different than others???

The only thing better than KVD line and lure is BTS for the boat.......

Freezing them???? Is that like a Hardboiled Cadburry Egg????

Depends if I am with my son or not. He is a numbers kinda kid but would be happy to fish all day for a 5lber. He's 11. Never met a kid who will fish for hours without a bite in hopes of a monster fish(for him) Doesn't complain, doesn't whine, just casts and casts in hopes of hooking "the one" Go big or go home I always say. The trip is not made by size or the amount of fish caught. The trip is made by the friendships, the scenery, and how well the boat ran, and whether or not your going to get in trouble for fishing too long when you get home......

From experience. If you have a CO pull up on you and you have your casting deck filled with rods for bass fishing and have spinnerbaits, cranks, jigs, etc. tied on you are going to get a ticket for fishing out of season. The judge will uphold the ticket because you had multiple bass fishing lures attached to multiple bass fishing rods and are casting for "X" during a closed season. The judge is going to be more apt side with the CO and when the CO asked you flat out "are you fishing for bass?" you can either lie or tell the truth. Most law enforcement can smell a lie farther than a John Daly drive......

The motor had a good pee stream even after it lost power. My temp gauges didn't go off but, I will check both before taking her in.

Gonna have some time on Wed to take a look at it. Hopefully I can figure it out so I dont have to spend the 95.00 per hour fee. The fact that it ran fine all day and suddenly lost power and sputtered makes me think it could just be a small fix. keeping my fingers crossed

Welcome aboard I love your articles and look forward to your contributions to the fourm

If you are not very computer saavy it can be a bit intimidating especially if you don't like change. However, I think most members will see that Glenn has put together a great setup that will allow BR to reach new heights in terms of knowledge available and member benefits. Give it time. Personally, I think its a big improvement

I am also in the market for a new TM. Currently, I have a 54lb thrust on an 18 ft boat. I think my boat would leave a rooster tail if I had 80lb of thrust. However, go big or go home. At some point you will wish you had more power

oops I meant 5000RPMs to 3500 (not 500) sorry

Ok Guys, you have never let me down before so here goes: Took the boat out for its maiden 2011 run. She started right up, water temps 48. I let her idle for about ten minutes to let it warm up properly. Got a good hole shot, ran about a mile and idled for probably 20 minutes. I fished for an hour with the TM and cranked up the motor to go back in. Again, everything was fine. About a half mile from takeoff she dropped from 500RPMs to about 3500rpms. At that point I threw her in nuetral and it sounded like I had lost a few plugs. By the time I got to the ramp as soon as I would put her in gear it would stall. Motor is a 96 Johnson 150. Never had an issue with the motor and just had a tune up last spring and ran fine all year. The gas had been filled and seafoam added before winter. I wanted to run it once to see if I should take her in for another tune up. Guess I will now. Thanks for the feedback guys. Could it be a bad fuel pump? Maybe just fouled plugs?

Cadburry actually makes a peanut butter egg along with their traditional egg. Personnally, I prefer the Reeses ones, but thats just me. I don't like the Cadburry cream, too much sugar....

In most little league rules once the ball gets back to the pitcher the play is considered dead and time is called. However, As the coach of an 8U, 10U, 11U, 12U, and 13U travel baseball team that is the first thing we teach the kids about base running during tournament games. If the ball is in play advance to the next base until someone picks it up. There are different rules for different leagues though. Your league official should have provided each coach with a set of rules at the beginning of the season. Good Luck.

This is going to take a bit to get used to. I am SO used to the old format. Everything looks different and new.. I'm scared....... LOL This is great! thanks Glenn

Why do you want to remove the DC???? It provides wind break for any rider you may have, and a bit of added space to store gear out of the elements.

If you are going to LSC in the spring do NOT forget some Super FLukes.. Pearl or bubble gum. And Jenga: X2 on the lipless cranks

I am thinking of going with a Pinnacle Platinum for a first time baitcaster for my son. He is constantly using mine. Most of my baitcasters are either BPS pro qualifiers or Shimanos. My question is: this rod will be used for everything from spinnerbaits to crankin and everything in between. In my experience with some "starter reels" in the past their breaking systems have actually made it harder to cast and prevent backlash due to lower end materials etc. How does the Pinnacle Platinum stand up to say a BPS pro qualifier? I really like the look and feel of the reel. Thanks for the feedback everyone.
