    For open water panfishing this is my go to line! It is awesome and much stronger than you would think. I landed a 14 lb catfish using it! Not to even claim I just horsed it in and yes I did use a net. Great line!

    I have a Barnett Whitetail Hunter II. It is light, fairly compact, and balances well. They were a huge hit and both novice and experienced hunters sought after them. I did a lot of research before purchasing mine and I have not one regret. You can attack a crank type cocking devise also if you would like. It is super accurate with the scope it came with.

    That will sell at that price. At least it would around here.

    Chatterbait type baits were originally made under the Hart name and were larger sizes if I am not mistaken. This was several years ago. They were marketed as Musky baits. I have caught both Pike and Musky on them by mistake.

    Try Templeton Rye, “The Good Stuff”. I love it and do not like many Ryes. Neat story behind it also.

    How could any motor be any more reliable than a Chevy 5.3?

    I really like the Falcon Bucoo line. Most of my rods both casting and spinning are these. I have medium light, medium, and medium heavy spinning rods and really like them. Good prices for these rods too. You can get them with micro guides if you wish, I like these especially for braided line, keeps the line from getting tangled around the guides. The micro guides are a pain to thread the line through though, especially in low light. Made in USA too!

    This is not going to be good for anyone in the end. I agree this is a long going conflict between Iran and Israel. But is going the wrong way and will simply divide this world even further.

    8# P-line coplymer for the spinner. Yo Zuri would probably be good too. Little more expensive but its line, line is important.

    P-Line Flouroclear is great line, especially for spinning rigs. I use 6lb for shakey heads, ned rigs etc.. Also good for fishing walleye jigs. As far a for your casting rigs, I really like SilverThread Excalibur. I use 14 lb for flipping and pitching, spinner baits, Chatters, and crankbaits in the River for the most part. If I am going to be fishing deeper I may rig up with 12 lb. Both are top notch lines.

    Hold your hand over the air intake, and crank over.

    These machines are fuel injected, this probably will not work. I believe your technique is more for carborated engines. Had a 75 Jeep CJ5 with 258 inline 6 that I had to start your way once in a long while. Boy was it a piece of junk, but boy would it go anywhere! Thanks for sparking the memories.

    Robby and Jeff- hopefully it’s not the fuel pump but yes if you come across the video please share

    I did not do the work myself. Had a Polaris Shop do it, and I want to say it cost about $350. This is for parts, labor, and diagnosis.

    I have a 2015 with less than 100 hrs on it. lol. My fuel pump went out a couple years ago. Did you notice a clicking noise when operating in the past? If so that was probably your fuel pump turning on cutting out.

    Tread carefully if you have State Farm. Just dealing with them, only Home Owner’s Claim ever. I am switching companies.

    Same color works well for spring bass, especially on a Chatterbait.

    A couple years ago I had to borrow a truck from a buddy to tow my boat for a trip in MN on the Canadian border. My truck was on the fritz. My buddy loaned me a Dodge 1 ton diesel. He told me it got 14 mpg day in a day out when not towing farm equipment. Well towing my Skeeter fiberglass boat, probably 3500 lbs or so, this truck towed it effortlessly. And I got 14 mpg. This truck did not struggle in the least in the hills around St. Cloud. So I would think a 3/4 would be better than a 1/2 ton. This said, I have towed with a 1/2 ton for years and have not had any problems.

    I know some guys that believe side scan, surround scan, down scan, and all HD sonar is not right. With this new tech of the glasses and the tech that will come, will fishing even resemble what we used to do? Is it ethical? Just questions. Each angler will have to answer for themselves.

    Who is the manufacturer? Seems like a good price to me.

    This is terrible. My heart goes out to you, your family, and Buster Brown. That wolf and most others just need to die.

    If you want even quieter, pull a water balloon over the end of your barrel. Obviously only good for 1 shot, but you can about hear the hammer strike. Does not effect accuracy much if any.
