  1. For those D/C fans like myself I was sad to read Phil Harris died. He was by all appearances a hard livin' guy, but very likeable. I assume the new season was filmed with him alive, so watching it this spring will be strange knowing he is gone. RIP Phil http://www.verizon.net/newsroom/portals ... le=2599283
  2. Link is bad, they must really suck stick with A-TOM-MIK
  3. This is who i use Bob, about 10 years now. I did have a claim once and they were very accomidating. Tha rates are fair as far as i can tell. http://www.unitedmarine.net/boat_insurance.asp
  4. Ya don't have to go far for those big boys, during Jon's Little Salmon brown trout derby this bad boy was hooked in Oswego Harbor. My bro/in law landed him on 8# test. Notice the spoon in the tail. He didn't hit of course, just a foul hook. We thought we had the derby big fish for sure. He was released so he could pound up against someones boat at the marina in the middle of the night again.
  5. Prayers sent...
  6. Tom, sorry for your loss, thoughts and prayers are with you.
  7. Oh good Jim, that saves me a few bucks They have a new mainline product this year, don't know if anyone has it yet. http://www.seaguar.com/products/tatsu.htm
  8. Anyone use it for mainline, trout/salmon?? I've used the leader material for years, great product.
  9. Thanks Stan, and all the other true American hero's
  10. Lil Grey, ask your dad if he would give up one of his red & whites (which is not likely) and beer batter them. And if there too small to fillet, put them in the yard for cat bait and sit in your room with the 22.
  11. GREASEFIRE
  12. The accu-trigger is SWEEEET
  13. Shade congrats on the new ride
  14. Chris you very well may be right, and hopefully all is well with the corporation. But as far as I could tell the Raymarine stock is traded on the LSE(UK) and nowhere else. I may have missed something, or that may not have any impact on the US operation at all. I just don't know Anyway I just wanted to raise the issue so someone didn't get stuck with a product that may not be honored in the future. Cmon spring
  15. I must be missing something, this is news from only 4 weeks ago. does someone have updated info. http://www.lse.co.uk/FinanceNews.asp?Ar ... rmin_talks
  16. Simrad is "sold out" I thought it was Raymarine?
  17. You can achieve 200' w/ alot more cable and a 15# shark, or go to 20# shark but that will kill your mag 10's or when they r below 200', fish for steelies I know guys who go down there, and its not a magic solution. If I were a hardcore tourny guy, I would be prepared to go deep if needed. 20# shark and a Scotty or Big Jon Brute.
  18. Great attitude Happy birthday
  19. Somehow this thread got off track with the attempt to interpret tax deductions as it pertains to tourny fishing. Greys original question pertained to deducting things such as interest (loans on boats/second residence,and fee's associated with seasonal docking. If the boat is designed by the manufacturer for overnighting (head, full galley, sleeping quarters) it could be considered a second home and interest from a loan is tax deductible as well as docking fees (as per my tax guru). I was told this info on the boat is built into the boats VIN number, thus identified when submitted for tax purposes. My guy takes the loan interest as well as the dock fees every year, no handcuffs Yet
  20. Be smart in your decisions, but definitely live for today!! Life is tooooooooo short.
  21. Reese, the simrad AP treated me nicely (ap12). The ap14 is the same unit with a digital readout. a couple hundred dollars price difference. You will need 11" of space behind the helm for install. As well as changing the steering cable to accommodate the new rotary system. Depending on the space you have the install can be very easy to very hard. The difficulty in my install was getting to the cable connection on the outdrive end, (no room) to operate. It eventually got done and I couldn't be happier. As everyone says, I don't know how I ever fished without it.
  22. I'm in hope it flys. There is nothing like burning gas to win gas money
