I have two methods of dealing with inconsiderate boaters on the water. If they are buzzing by and I cannot read their registration numbers, I use a 1 ounce and a slingshot. If they try to crowd me...

I have an on-board charger for two trolling motor batteries and the Cranking Motor Battery. Everything stays wired together. I dont disconnect anything when I charge. Have been doing it this way...

I am planning on adding a "Flow-Rite" system to my boat this year. My trolling motor batteries are located in very inacessable places. Have to check them with mirrors and then end up with water all...

Great post Smitty. Had never really looked at things like that, but you are 100% right and it made me see the error of my ways. Being in the military for over 30 years and moving around every few...

For me a small Zip Lock Sandwich bag is kept in Glove Box and my wallet goes in there every time I get launch my boat.

I must be real ugly lookin cuz I dont get those ads from the girls wanting to get married. All I get are ads for fishin stuff :(

What it sounds like what you need is a Vibratory switch or switches. These are also called Mercury Switches by Bomb Techs. When installed on the boat, they would "alarm" when ever the boat moved;...

My season ends when the 300lb hillbilly gets the Christmas decorations down out of the attic. She has so many boxes and totes that it is impossible to get the boat out of the garage. Plus as she...

One option that you have is to place the deposit on a Credit Card. That way if the merchandise is not delivered in a timely manner you can dispute the charge and have it taken off your card. This...

I've been doing pretty good on the top end of Wheeler around the areas where the Paint Rock River and the Flint River come in. Both mouths are holding fish. The bluffs are pretty good too.

It sounds like you have some sort of sensor malfunction. Whether it is a oil pressure sensor or an oil level sensor only a look at each one and a function test of each one will solve the problem. ...

I too have had my minners die quickly from the shock of the difference between the lake and the cooler temps. I have tried to solve that by filling my cooler with lake water and then introducing the...

Wishing you a speedy recovery. I had my right knee done in Jul of 2010 and my left done last Nov. Like most have said keep at the Rehab. Mine are doing just fine. I made a parachute jump on them...

This just proves what fishing is all about. A way to connect with nature and to pass along to the next generation a love for it all. I took my kids as often as I could when they were little. Now...

Many years ago I bought my Father-in-Law a telescopic pole from Lew Childre called a Bream Buster. Lew Childre made some really nice rods back in the day. This line is no longer made, so they are a...
