Been going on for a long time. Back in the ‘old days’ we had a manual switch to inject the chemicals into the engine for dispersal. The flight plan would have an asterisk at the beginning and end...
To be fair, this has been going on for a long time. These days everything is put out on the media within seconds. Since 1980ish I’ve only had a couple problems. The biggie was being cleared to cross...
People need to pull their heads out of their asses and pay attention to what’s happening. Make up all the excuses you want but it boils down to people doing (or not doing) their jobs.
I have a large BGE. For me it works just fine. I only do family size cooking. 4-8 folks. A couple racks of ribs, 12# brisket, or 1 or 2 butts are all I do for the most part. I saw the KJ on sale at...

Mather was a water injected G model behind a turbofan H model in a 12 second minimum interval TO. The G was gaining on the H but instead of turning out, he pulled the power back. The water cut out...
:salute: Had lots of fun in that old beast.
My late wife (God rest her wonderful soul) put up with my absences for 38 years. Either me being stuck for a week in the SAC alert shack, being deployed for months at at time, or on the road with the...
The guy was upset about the 43 1/2 feet of lake that he wasn’t able to fish at that moment in time? Somebody has issues.
I can’t even count the number of times I’ve passed someone on the lake and...
Lost Lake. Picked up a 12 pack one day. Finished one, got halfway through the 2nd and knelt before the porcelain god. Maybe it was old and skunky but I’ll never find out. Can’t stand to see that...
Mostly cloudy here so I made my own.

I’d like to try to make both bologna and hot dogs. Been making sausage for 25 years now but never made those. Got a recipe or video you can steer me to?
The difference between homemade and store...
I’ve seen one and trust me when I say it’s not something you see every night. Travel a long way? Not really unless I had the time. Big gamble coming up to western NY where the sun is somewhat of a...
I’m just east of Buffalo. Gonna be cloudy in the 716 is my bet. Should have moved it up a day. Not a cloud in sight today.
I did some last week. Put them in at 220 for 1.5 hours. They weren’t cooked through but I finished them up in the oven on Sunday for brunch. No water pan.

For the partially cooked ones what temp do you pull it? And how long does it take to finish in a crock pot/oven?
On bigger jigs, I powder coat, bake, then use clear nail polish with glitter in it. Looks nice. Not sure if it does anything.
We’re diving into the rabbit hole now. For small stream fishing with delicate presentations where roll casting is the norm, a double taper line is going to be best. However, that is probably a small...
I had 1494 a million years ago and gave it away (:crying:). I think it had a pressure pad in it but memory fails me in my old age. I have an old Shakespeare with a drag like that.
If you’re going to play that game, go all out!

They’re just clickers. The little spring thingies (technical term) can be turned to make it feel right. No drag on them.
Almost time! Three wt with an Allen Alpha 3/4 reel. Just walking the bank.

The made in USA ones go big. The others are fairly inexpensive. I have a couple 1492’s and a 1492 1/2 made in Asia that were fairly cheap but work well. New in the box under $20.
I got a few used...
I’ve always been happy with TFO rods (pro II) and Allen reels. An old Medalist reel can be had for few $ and they’re plenty good to handle trouts. Probably be best to go to a fly shop and ask around....
