Northeast US Lake Conditions / Water Temps Dropping!
« on: August 15, 2019, 10:26:47 AM »
Last week the water temps were hanging at 83 - 84. Yesterday I was shocked when I saw it had dropped to 76  :o
With the hot temps forecasted in the coming 10 days or so, it will climb again, but it's that time of year when it will start its rollercoaster ride into the fall season. Man, I hate fall because I know it leads to Winter  :crying:

I have been using a braided line that I had never heard of before. After using it since March, I put a review together this week!

See how it turned out.

Northeast US Lake Conditions / Water Temps Climbing
« on: June 27, 2019, 01:21:13 PM »
The recent warm spell has the local water temps climbing into the mid 70s! I have no doubt that by the end of the day tomorrow, some lakes will be nudging 80 degrees  :o

Boating Forum / Check Your Trolling Motor For Line!

Be sure to remove your TM prop at least once or twice per year to check for debris on the prop shaft!
Old line is a killer of the seals that keep water out of the guts of your TM, so make sure none of it is living behind the prop.
I took mine apart this week and here's what I removed from behind there!

Braided line is the worst because it takes so much to break it. It will chew up seals in a hurry.  :yes:

Wow. What a strange April it has been so far!
I'm really glad it has warmed up so much. I have to say, though, that this has been an extremely wet, windy April!! I wonder what the last half of April will bring  :hmm:

The Hawg Forum / The YoYo Effect
« on: March 18, 2019, 11:02:48 AM »
So now we're at that time of year where we watch the weather patterns and the temperatures bounce up and down and then up again for the next several weeks!

Always an adventure as lakes start opening up and we break our boats out of the mothballs  :yes:

General Non-Fishing Chatter / When Boxes Look Like This
« on: January 30, 2019, 01:57:54 PM »
I got a new box in the mail today from Amazon. Inside the box was a new KastKing Spartacus Reel.

The shipping box looked perfect. The product package did not  ::)











Seriously?? I'd like to know what they did to this box before they packed it up for shipping. Then again, maybe I don't want to know!

Either way, this one's on its way back to Amazon and a new one is already on the way to replace it.  :yes:

The Hawg Forum / If It Was Spring Already...
« on: January 24, 2019, 07:00:32 PM »
If it was Spring already, we'd all be bass fishing in the woods!!


The rain this winter is crazy, and everything is extremely high, no matter where I look. Can't even imagine what the water levels will be in the Spring if this keeps up and we have normal Spring rains  :facepalm:
