  1. Mishler, how's it going in Evart...????

  2. I found it this morning, on the Raymarine site. As long as your a VIP member, you can down load tutorials on there site, it's cool and Well it doesn't tell you much at all, but it's a start.
  3. Good Morning all, and hows' the weekend going for everyone, I'm looking for a Raymarine Fishfinder Tutorial....got a new one this year as those on the board may know, and I'd like to know how to use it and adjust it before I hit the water this spring, it would be so much easier this way.... Can anyone tell me where this may be??? Looking for something online..... yeah know.
  4. My wife, is the best as well. She drives for me while I fish and I know she loves to fish, but let's me bring in the fish... Damn I don't know how to thank her, she's been so great, this coming year its going to be less fishing and more Romance on the boat.... because this year was all about fishing for me... and she stuck through all th bad days...What a woman she been for me... she's A Captains Captain like yours.....This is a pic of the Love of my life...God she gives a lot to me.... and it's time, I do the same...
  5. bob, how do you know how many fish are planted by the tribes? Is there a website for this...
  6. This trailer doesn't have buddy bearings at all, have to take the caps off and watch for the grease to come out around the bearings and Nut, and I won't over great them at all, I'd seriuosly like to get the boat off the trailer and repack all the bearing again, just for safe keepin, know what I mean.???? I'll watch them like a Hawk now and regrease at least once a month or so, thanks FRANK for the advice... I appreciate it greatly.
  7. Wow, I think I've finally avoided the bearing demon.... Made the trip from Flint to Coopersville to get her winterized and repaired..(lil crack in the swimplatform) and had NO bearing issues... Damn I'm happy...... Felt them half way there they weren't even warm.....I'm going to re-grease them every trip carry aprtable grease gun with me yeah Know???
  8. welcome aboard Adam and yes we've picked up a few ballons , and funny they had your name on them......from the water in Ludington......Imagine that... This board is aweseom, they can help with everything including spending your money not there.s
  9. 22 foot waves today at stanard Rock in Lake Superior.... imagine that...
  10. Yes the ball hitch is for The snowmobile trailer, and whatever else I can tow with it, the Fifth Wheel Hitch is attached to the trailer right now, cause I had to move some furniture... To answer franks question, I'm really NOT looking for better mileage, though it should improve up to 5 mpg, I can get 16 when moving at 64 MPH, and 10 mpg towing, with the 433 rear end, it's not a mileage gear, but Man can it pull. Thanks guys for the comments, Mike how do you like your interior in that Valasa Raptor? I love mine, though it's a ittle stiff, it's very light biege, I worry bout it getting dirty so I make sure I'm clean most of the time. That big block in your truck,... your going to LOVE that creature..
  11. Great catch guys, way to slam them..
  12. Ok Well it won't climb big hills like a mountian climber, but it will pull the mountain around the country... 2010 Ford F 450 Lariat. 6.4 liter Diesel 4x4 433 Axle Ratio Not Chipped Yet...
  13. Well I did it, I bought the Airmar B64 20 degree element, and with that you need to cut a 3 3/4" hole in the bottom of the boat, I'm hear to tell you it went well, cutting into the hull was a little un nerving..but with a hole saw it wass made easy... and it fit in with a little filing on the edges,Sealed it in with 3M 5200 sealant/Adhesive and now I have to wait until spring to see if it leaks.....but with that adhesive/sealant.... I don't think there will be any leaks, I'm not really worried.., now to install the sounder, I'm having trouble locating a good spot to put it in, Raymarine doesn't want it in the engine compartment....So... I' crawl around and find a perfect site for the sounding box.....Hope I don't get stuck..:thumb:
  14. Sweet truck Mike I just read where they are putting in the 6.2 liter.... that's awesome I'll take some pics of my New Truck here shortly....2010 F450.... it's is certainly a truck I've dreamed about for a long time...
  15. bob they are out there and they are in Good condition.... and there cheap
  16. Matt , thanks for bringing it up, but I still AIN"T TALKIN BOUT IT, Just let it go....
  17. Hey pit, stick with your local small shops they will be more interested in selling what you need, not what will make them more money....
  18. we saw this all summer in Ludington... it's horrible we picked out 8 ballons in 1 day...I'm pissed...
  19. ok I have to ask cause I don't know, do they kill the females and then take the eggs, or do they express them then let the females go, I was up there a few years ago and they told us, but I can't remember.... it's called sometimers disease...
  20. Welcome to the site, and I'm gladd to see someone can live the dream.... I'm just stuck selling Nuts and Bolts.
  21. Jim, I al proud of you and I stand corrected, but please don't think I was bitchin at you, just a concerned boater that's all, we've seen too many boaters go out in very incement weather, you are then man it's better to be teased then to be Burried.....at sea. Don't you agree.
  22. i AGREE We need to leave mother nature alone, when we interfere nothing good comes from it,except stocking fisheries... and even then I'm sure there are issues that we don't know yet...
  23. Nice Job Jim, But remember this, A lightening Bolt can strike from over 50 miles away, if you can see them they can reach out and touch you, just be careful that your not the State Record, and sorry bout the one that got away, they are always the biggest fish you've ever seen.
  24. Ok That sounds awsome guys, I want to target the salmon, but if I hook into a steelhead or two I'll take them too.
