Is there something beyond "cabin fever"? Like maybe, "cabin ebola"? 'Cause that's what I've got!

Have you seen this? Looks like '95 engines are right on the bubble...

Alcohol is an excellent fuel, but it contains less energy per unit volume than gasoline, so you need to use more per mile, and you're already aware of that. Also, E85 has an octane rating of ~100-105, and in order to make best use of it, the engine needs to have a high compression-ratio, just like y...

Actually, octane rating is a complicated issue. Modern gasolines are very complex mixtures which are blended differently from region-to-region (MI gets a different blend from Denver, because of the higher altitude in Denver, and different from Fla, because of the different temperatures) and from sea...

Yes Kevin, that's true; the high-volatility components of the gasoline mixture will be lost first, and everything you said is correct. Varnish results when some of the additives (detergents, lubricants, anti-oxidants, and even dyes) either decompose or precipitate out as the mixture's composition ch...

Yeah, that's what I guessed, too; but I still have to get a pair of Knipex cutters to complete my release toolset, so there's another ~$55 gone...

From a guy who has WAY too many lures, keep the lure arsenal on the light side and just get a dozen baits that allow you to present in a manner that the situation calls for.

I've already experienced the willingness of this group to welcome me as an outsider and a newbie: I've had multiple offers of sharing a boat; Mike and Michele King offered me advice anytime I needed it, and fish-finder at a ridiculously low price, and invited me to their shop; Will Schultz and Fred ...

When I was younger and stupid (OK dumber... I'm still stupid) I agreed with that... kinda. ... It's even worse when you're old and stupid, like me, and know everything! :grin: Thanks, Mike and Jason, for the offers. And I started this thread just asking what lure I had bought! :shock: But I'd feel ...

TOM, If I can use a baitcaster anyone can! Believe me I get my share of backlashes!!!!!!! Go to this http://www.indiantrailresort.com Click on John and his European guest, the guy is using a spinning reel, you'll love it. Is the rumour true that you have a pet name for every muskie in Ovid? All the...

Well, I've never said baitcasting is the wrong way to do it, nor have I said spinning is better. All I'm saying is I'm not conviced spinning can't be effective; and in any case I'm STUCK with spinning for the time being because I can't afford new baitcasting stuff right away, so I have to make the b...
