    Celebration of Tom' life

    Thanks Mark, unfortunately I won't be able to attend the celebration on the 23rd. Many of my pics have been imprisoned in electronic never-never land but I'll try to come up with a couple.

    Tom Scholberg update 1/31/19

    I know it was as hard to write that as it was to read it Mark. Rest easy my friend.

    A little chilly this morning

    -40. Which is also the temp at which a fully charged lead acid battery will freeze.

    1-10-19 Tom Scholberg Update

    Same here Dani. Sent a text but haven't heard back - It's ok as I understand how hard he's fighting. I think just seeing our support helps him.

    Absolutely shocking the difference in a year

    Thanks Dani that's great news. Now I need to figure out dates and call for a reservation.

    Absolutely shocking the difference in a year

    That's an amazing amount of destruction. Have you been down to St Marks lately? Did the campground survive? Ootz 2? Thinking about stopping there in early March.

    Marine Starter Battery Size

    Yep, that'll do it. I had a car battery get extremely low one time. The only indication was that it started to smell like chicken frying - seriously! Found out from someone that it's an indication that your battery is almost cooked and you better do something about it ASAP.

    Aquaseal

    I've never actually timed it. I usually know in advance if I'm going to need it so I take it out of the freezer at least several hours before hand. Of course it depends on the ambient temperature. I've also put the tube in warm water to speed up the thawing process.

    Aquaseal

    Aquaseal is #1 IMHO. I always have some on hand and have never had it fail. When you are done with your repairs put the tube in the freezer and it will last years. I have no reason to try anything else. I've never used 4200 but I always have 5200 (keep that in the freezer too) around for...

    "Transom Saver" on a sneakbox rig

    Ditto, I've never owned a transom saver and never had a problem with either the transoms or the motors. I trailer my big boat with the metal bracket locked down by the tilt/trim. On my BB3 or Jon boat the motor is either all the way down if I have enough road clearance or on half tilt with a...

    Divers flaring on me in my new layout boat

    Are the birds seriously flaring or just coming around for a 'look see' and find out they really aren't interested after all? Especially with pressured birds, they may be reluctant to fully commit. I'm of the opinion that the only thing the really flares divers is unnatural movement in either...

    Facemask and glasses

    Until my cataract surgery this summer I've worn glasses for 60 years. The key to wearing a tight mask is don't cover your nose. Just bring your mask up to the bottom of your nose. Put some camo paint like Hunters Specialties or similar on your nose if you feel you need it but I only use the...

    1997 Johnson 9.9 Firing on one cylinder

    Ditto, Rich beat me to it. Sounds like a bad coil to me. If you have it in a barrel and can run it at night with the cowling off you might see the coil arcing.

    Filled a limit today

    Haha, I hear you Dave. Prior to two cataract surgeries in June and Sept I wouldn't have seen the difference either. Now I have between 20/15 and 20/10 and it's fantastic. Maybe I'll get the .22 out again.

    I've never shot a .17 but wanted to. I always did well with a Nylon 66 and open sights.

    Seriously though, good job. I haven't had a mess of fried squirrel in ages. When I was in high school my brother and I were death on the local squirrel population and had our own competition - .22s only and only head shots counted. When we got enough together for the family (6 kids) my Mom...
