    Am I crazy?

    U guys that mess with older reels, I’m on the lookout for a drag knob for an older Stradic 4000 FI. Looked on EBay, found a few, but don’t look like the one I lost. Thanks

    Outboard horsepower

    I have a cousin that had a 60hp on a 13 ft whaler Marine Patrol checked him for fishing license and ask him what HP his motor was. He told them,60. Guy replied, “We’ve only got a 50 on our 13 Whaler.” He replied, “That’s why I have a 60”

    What to do when the water is turned off?

    Ask the Guard, how does he flush his toilet? Since it’s on a trailer, can u haul it to a coin operated car wash? I know New Jersey is famous for their full service gas stations, pull it there and pay the guy $40-$50 bucks to use the water hose for 30 minutes we had to mix a lot of Sakrete...
