    Doves and pellet guns

    The obvious question is can you discharge a firearm in the city.

    New truck considerations

    I don't see how people can afford the $$$$ for a new vehicle.

    Would you vote for Sheriff Joe?

    He had his run and tried stem the flood of illegals. But it has been the norm for so long and the majority of the populous wasn't behind it so it was like attempting to dam the Mississippi one sand bag at a time. His approach was too polarizing and just didn't work. Any deterrants had to come from DC, State Governments and sympathetic enablers who turn a blind eye. COVID-19 changed the way we live overnight but the new normal is the same old thing. It almost seems like CBP and the "Wall" are just Federal money pits and any regulations, or changes to the Constitution should have been enacted 50 years ago. Time has shown that things like welfare, access to DL's, enrollment into public school, medical benefits and now relief checks are incentives. Can't really blame them for coming here after going there multiple times on hunting trips and seeing how people scratch out a living with the Police and Federales crawling up your tail who wouldn't want to escape it.

    Did you shoot the dog? Some dog are like family, some are just tools. I wouldn't hesitate to dispatch another one if it acted up. I like those Israel Bandages. I also keep a needle and thread.

    San Diego Fishing Charters

    This. I have fished from here to Hawaii, Alaska, Louisiana and the Caribbean. They don't care as long as you don't have ice, which can leak and make a mess. I like the drive so that's what we do. If you are coming back just put the fillets in a ziplock bag and carry it on.

    Outdoorsmans bino adapter question

    Never thought of that. I have the tall for my EL's. Might be time to rethink it.
  17. Long story short. My son and I were looking at Tracker Boats, specifically a 17'er with a 60 Merc. Price was affordable at about 13K or so but the reviews I have seen online are horrendous as far as quality and BP customer service being unresponsive or telling people to send the boat back to the factory and repairs taking multiple phone calls and months to get resolved at best. It seems like common problems are leaking hulls, electronics that are outdated and wiring problems and people at BP who are almost clueless. Should we just be looking at a used hull and get a new motor and electronics?
  18. I have a Model 70 that is post 64 and would like to convert it to a CRF.

  22. Way too many ponies for a boat that size on our lakes. I'm past the age for the need for speed. Back in my teens my buddy had a 13' Carlson Contender with a 3/4 tunnel hull and a 125 Evinrude that had bigger reeds in it and was good for 135 HP. We would go out after work in the Great South Bay of Long Island and in the evening the water was like glass. We didn't have a speedo and GPS wasn't around in 1969 but I can tell you that boat from a dead stop would do a propstand and was probably good for 60mph or better. The posted speed limit just past the canal was 30MPH and after partaking in the herb of the day he opened her up to about 3/4 throttle. Out of a cut in the marsh be comes Johhny Law in a Boston Whaler with a 135 Merc on it that had Power Trim/Tilt, which was fairly new back then. Well with his blue lights flashing and siren going he came up on us fairly soon. I looked at my buddy and said what does he think he is going to do? He let him get to withing about 50 feet and mashed the throttle throwing a huge rooster tail on him and we put about 150' between us. We then slowed down and when he got closer we did it again. Laughing our nutz off. Over the next few minutes we did this three of four more times and he eventually backed off and we went on our way. Nowadays we would probably have gotten shot. The plate on the transom had a horsepower rating of "Unlimited". He bought it used and it had a gold metal flake paint job on it. On the front of the deck was a painting of a Fly with sunglasses on a pair of bongos between his legs. The boat was called The Beatnick Fly. It was very very fast and light. On weekends when the "Rich Folk" would venture out in their 40' Chris Crafts and Hatteras we would buzz them and sometimes spray them. We were just a couple of longhairs and one thing we would do is come up in their prop wash at 40MPH and about 50 feet from their transom veer off to the right and hit the throttle as we crested their 3 to 4 foot wave. The Beatnick Fly would litterally "become airborne for 50 feet floating side to side. Good old American Fun. 55 years later he and I are still friends since one of my brothers married his sister. He is quite the character. Everyones perception of an Italian American from New York. Loud and obnoxios who would give you the shirt off his back.

  23. Was it carpeted? I'm used to fishing out of a Blue Wave Center Console that has no carpet and was pretty easy to wash down. I can't get my head around having carpet in a boat.

    I can pick them up for you and bring them back to Mesa on my next trip to Kingman either later this week or next week.

    Which portable shooting bench?

    You could probably use the top off a folding plastic table and cut out a place to sit. Then get some 3/4" EMT to make four 24" legs and attach them to the table. Then put a set screw coupling on the other end. Then cut some 1/2" EMT pieces to 18" and slide it into the 3/4" coupling and tighten down the screw. This way you could make each leg adjustable for uneven terrain. You could probably make two for under $70. https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/pdg-6-ft-folding-table-1254510?cm_mmc=feed-_-GoogleShopping-_-Product-_-1254510&gclid=CjwKCAjwwYP2BRBGEiwAkoBpAvJdxnM10b3qLuuUbjnOyRoYTJZHKtpcgqwgM94nH0jyjSEVVp6WiBoCFGsQAvD_BwE
