Could you please explain something for me or tell me where to find it :oops: . How do I reference a link w/o showing the entire address in my post. I promise to go back and correct those threads which I have made so wide as to be a terrible irritation to all readers.

CAVU... Ken, I'm not an expert, but I've learned a little bit from trial and error. As I see it, there maybe less braking surface on the rotor to get hot and the rotor surface is closer and in direct contact with the hub. The cast iron conventional brake drums dissipate heat much faster and...

I have a 19 gal live bait tank which I can remove when it's not being used. My tank will handle almost a scoop. I think your lazarette will handle less than you think. Some people convert a plastic garbage can to a live bait tank with very good results. I know you have to consider weight...

Try Clorox.

Bill... Very nice picture. Sorry to hear about your GPS. I thought those things never missed :shock: ! I'll stick with my trusty old map. A tip: I like running with the truckers at night. I linger back far enough so as not to be a part of that Trooper stuff. The old diesel really pulls...

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Sure is a friendly neighborhood! That is priceless! :shock: :shock:

Sea Wolf, Has Lake Shasta dried up yet? How's the launch ramp look. Bill

Dan... Personally, I like to have options for when I'm not using a downrigger. It took a few years for me to realize that the rail on a 22ft CD does not offer many options. Cabelas sells Bert's Custom Tackle which does gives you some options without drilling and filling in holes :? when you...

Sea Wolf... When you start mixing, it's best to mix reds with reds and blues with blues. :mrgreen: :wink Really, I would think all petroleum products would mix with petroleum based grease. Automobiles getting lube work done are constantly getting different grease. Even, some synthetic's...

Adeline... Grease is a technical subject. I've been hauling a trailer around for quite some time and my dad was a rep for Lubrication Engineers out of Texas. I still have a lot to learn about the subject. Some grease separates when it gets too warm and that irritates me the most because of...

Since I had previously logged on, I may as well throw in my 2 cents worth. I qualify as having over 50 years of fishing experience. The saddest part of what you say is that the salmon lose their flavor once they arrive in your area and probably end up in the garbage can. It should be hands...

Is the halibut season over for this year (2004) or will there more in the fall? Bill

I contacted the BC comic strip for this answer. "Gollywobbler" The admonition received after failing the field sobriety test - Gollywobbler, you're under arrest for drunk driving! :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

Joe, I was very pleased to hear this good news. I had given up on Yamaha to make a EFI 90 fourstroke available. Next time you're in contact with Guenters, I presently have a low time 1991 Yamaha 90 2-stroke & a 9.9 4-stroke High Thrust. That's Great news, Bill

TyBoo Since I opened my mouth, I might as well take this a little further. I can't comment on the fullness of your hub as I'm not familiar with the Tie Down cap. I did contact a Chevron tech on the internet with regards to what type grease to use, in anticipating a heat problem from my disc...

Tyboo, Do you have brakes on all wheels? I'm just guessing that may account for the heat. Sometimes, the warmer bearings may need some adjustment if there is adequate grease in the hub Bill

I usually make that run with the trucks @ around 65 mph. My trucker co-pilot sez they usually don't bother you at that speed. Anyway, it's a nice drive with the trailer in tow. Avoid those tire treads truckers leave behind, as they can do some real serious damage. Bill PS - I just came...

I don't know if this travel tip has been previously mentioned. I've been using the traveled portion between Eugene, OR and Klamath Falls. I like it because there is less traffic, good roads, and supposed to be shorter. A retired friend of mine (old truck driver) suggested this route when...

A 50th Anniversary happens happens once in a Blue Moon!!! :wink: I won't live long enough to see one of those! Bill

My wife and I spent this last week exploring the Oregon coast between Pacific City and Coo's Bay. Our first CD sighting occurred at the mouth of the Siuslaw River west of Florence on July 28th at about 1:30 pm. The ocean was pretty nasty at the mouth and the CD operator took the conservative...
