    trailer wheel leaning

    I'd check out utube for videos on repacking bearings. That way you'll get a better idea of what has to be done to them.

    Question for the rodbuilders?

    The theme seems to be it's not cost effective. The poles were just common bass pro ones so I'm probably better off trying my hand at making my own. My fishing buddy keeps saying this anyway. Something about I'll never be happy. So wheres a person go to get some practice blanks? I know...

    Swai Fish

    I don't know if it was because I haven't had any fish for a while or what, but I cooked up some filets of these and man they were good. I'm kind of surprised with them being frozen filets from ALDI's. Half flour, half cornmeal and some seasoning salt cooked in shallow oil. Best I've had...

    Question for the rodbuilders?

    Can a rod be taken apart or once they are together that's it? I have a couple rods where the blank is decent but I don't like the seat and was wondering if it could be replaced. I haven't taken them apart yet because I didn't want to destroy them if they don't come apart. Thanks

    Z-Coil shoes?

    I finally tried some crocs. Hurt my feet too much even after "modifying". Those others are supposed to be good for plantar fasciitis which I have so I'll try anything. Sister said she'd buy them for me, so I guess I'll let her! lol

    Z-Coil shoes?

    My sister showed up wearing a pair of these today. Kind of reminded me of a cyborg or something. She swears they are great and I should get a pair. Anyone on here have some so I could get a second opinion?

    What fishing related item(s) have you purchased lately?

    Bought a quantum rod the other day. The response series so I can try out the micro quides on the cheap.

    You ever get fixated on a song and listen over and over?

    I won't play it over and over but if you play tub thumping, people will go "Who played that ^$^#@?!" (when secretly they like it)

    Chalk like Residue on paint

    2 coats would be fine, the way I read it I thought maybe more because you said several coats. On your guy you work with sounds like his first coat isn't sticking. Aluminum has to be prepped really well because it builds an oxidized surface really quick. Primer is supposed to give your paint...

    Chalk like Residue on paint

    You have 2 coats on it already? You don't like the way it looks or did you put it really thin? I just used the same paint, different color and 2 coats was enough for me but it was a smaller project so I probably put it on thicker. If you are going to put on another coat, check the can and...

    Chalk like Residue on paint

    If it leaves color on your finger tips it's overspray, if not coloring your fingertips then might be the oil on your skin leaving a mark. If they wipe off good like you said I wouldn't worry about it. Let it cure for a week and see what it does. Colder temps, it takes longer for the solvent...

    Inexpensive boat cover supports

    I used 2 1/2 inch pvc and stuck them over the seat posts on each end with a pipe running front to back with two legs down in the middle and feet on that post to keep it from moving side to side. No glue or screws.

    Someone school me on color!

    Page 208 spring Cabela's fishing catalog I see has a device that selects the color for you. If someone wants to spend the $124 let us know if it works would you?
