    Trailer tires

    If so, why only one tire? Both were inflated to 45 lbs and when I notice the wear I checked the the inflation and both were at 42psi.

    Trailer tires

    Thanks for the info. When I get back to the cabin I'll check the rolling resistance of the tire if any. I don't think it would be fender contact as the trailer is designed for boats heavier than mine but one never knows. Maybe the leaf spring on that side is damaged.

    Trailer tires

    If it were over inflation wouldn't both tires be bad? They are inflated to the same psi. Just asking. Will check axle alignment when I figure our how to do it. Figure there must be videos out there.

    Trailer tires

    But why then only one tire? Both were inflated to the same psi. Difference in tire quality between the two maybe? And what would be the correct pressure for this trailer that is carrying 3-350 pounds or so? I did check for wobble and there wasn't any. I did not lift the tire off the ground...

    Trailer tires

    To answer a few questions. Tire inflation was right around 45 psi during the season and when the trailer was brought to the cabin for storage. Single axle trailer. Bearings were gone over before the season started and were good. Regressed at that time. Trailer is manufactured by Karavan...

    OT Ice Auger

    Looks like I'm late to the party. Bought the first version of the Ion and have never looked back. I hated the smell of gas all over everything. In the vehicle, in the ice house and so on. The slightest gas leak would smell forever. Plus the hassle of dealing with small motor carbs made the...

    Socks

    Looking for a new pair of hunting/ice fishing socks. My current set up is PP sock covered with wool socks. While this has worked for a long time, the cold takes a toll after awhile. I have been reading about Alpaca hollow fiber socks and the theory. Thing how these work makes sense to me...

    Arkansas Opener Video from Public Land

    I guess I have a different take. When I was younger my Dad, his best buddy and his son would hunt a very popular place on the Mississippi backwaters down near Wabasha MN. Opening day at the ramp was exciting and filled with adrenaline. The ramp was small and the line long. Everyone, for the...

    Let's Hear Your Worst Job

    Had plenty of worse jobs. Best job I had was when I was in graduate school and took a fill in job as a student loan officer at a school of nursing. 100 females, No men. I was single. They were lonely. When their payment was late they had to talk to me. Lots of offers in lieu of payment but never...

    Oh boy

    Anyone ever pee in their duck calls? Asking for a friend. Thought today would be a great day with the weather we've had the past couple of days. So foggy out no ducks are flying. Bummer. Mark W

    Figures

    The boat is a Lund Ducker. Not sure of the year as it does not have a HIN associated with it. These were built in the 50's and 60's I believe. Picked mine up this past winter and spent a few months repairing and puting it back together. For what I need this boat to do, it works well for me. Mark

    Figures

    Out checking if any ducks have come down yet and sure enough, this guy shows up. Stood there for 30 seconds. Long enough to get my phone out and take this pic. Then he slowly wanders back into the woods. Love this new boat set up. For me right back to this spot with zero walking. Last year it...
