    One fluke

    They stopped the mates from selling the freshest fish from the boats? Why. I bet because the stores were complaining. That’s the fish you want. Politics. But let’s not go there. Funny you said you fished on the golden eagle. I fished on the golden eagle too. And I was at the golden eagle this...

    I’ll explain inflationary impact

    You’re looking at it all wrong. 1 in 300 million. So that’s only if 300 million played. My calculations say I have 50/50 chance of taking home the first prize. Actually it’s more like 1/1 and I bought 2 tickets so the odds are better. I got it all spent. I bought things on my credit card...

    I have to drill into my console to fix and replace the horn switch. I hate drilling into the console cause if I make a mistake there is no turning back. I did make a panel with the switch to cover the hole but I just don’t like making holes into it. Is the console thick? I have to make a...

    Like phat said it could be a vent line. But if you can post a picture that would be helpful. One other thing. When you fill the gas tank if you put your ear by the fitting can you hear the fuel going in?

    What’s going on with prices

    $7.99 a pound for cleaned squid is a lot of money but much better than $9.99 a pound. They use to sell it without the head and tentacles just the tube. Now they are thrown in a crate and you have to get them yourself. $9.99 a pound I’m giving up on squid till the price comes down. I will find...

    I have a question

    )well your right about the Asian /Chinese food markets. I do see them alive in tanks for sale. Why are they not for sale in a r3gular seafood market? I don’t know. I guess it’s like ling, you don’t see them in markets either. So what you have to do is catch them yourself. I thought you were...

    What’s going on with prices

    Did anyone check the prices of fish these days? Highway robbery. And they blame it on the tariffs Fluke, $12.99 a pound not filleted the whole fish. So I would estimate the weight at 3 pounds. That $39.00 for one fluke. That’s insane Cleaned squid was $4.99 a pound that was about three years...

    Console rebuild Lowrance 12”

    It’s amazing that’s the first time you did fiberglass work and it came out that nice. Doing the gel coat don’t you have to cover it with something so the air doesn’t hit it? From what I read gel coat doesn’t not cure in the air. How did you do that?
