    ebay knives

    There are tons of cool looking knives on ebay for cheap, too cheap, I am no knife expert but some of these look bad to the bone. Has anyone ever bought one of these? The price seems way too good to be true.

    need help choosing deer rifle

    I was thinking about trying deer hunting. I have never done any hunting of any kind and I am pretty clueless as to what type of gun to get. I don't know much about guns. I have shot many types of hand guns. I am not a great shot. I have read a few post here about 30-30 and 30-06. These...

    fuel additive

    My father in law gave me a can of MI 3000 plus deposit control. He said to put a little in each gas tank for my johnson outboards, says it will help keep the carbs clean. Has anybody else used this stuff, and is it ok to use? thanks

    Is my motor too heavy?

    I recently aquired a 1965 9.5 hp Johnson model number mq11c. I changed the water pump and rebuilt the carb. It ran like a dream in a trash can. I finally got to take it to the lake this weekend. I put it on my 14 foot semi v and would not even attempt to start. When I got it home this...

    original servive manuals

    Ken Cook now wants almost 75 dollars for the older servive manual reprints. Last year it was only 40 dollars. I guess after all of the free press they were getting here. The laws of supply and demand took over. I think I will try my luck with Seloc or Clymer.

    water pump replacement

    I just aquired a 1965 johnson 9.5 hp mq11c. I got it running long enough to tell that it is not spraying any water. I was going to replace the impellar anyway. On this model do you just take out the four bolts that hold the lower unit on and then diconnect the shift lever? Are there any...

    what to look for

    There was an add in the paper this weekend for a couple of Evinrudes, a 10hp and a 7.5. Both were listed as is. I talked to the guy on the phone and doesn't really know what year they are. They belonged to his father. He thinks they are late 50's early 60's. He says the 10 hp looks almost...

    freezing bait fish

    I finally got to try my new cast net this past weekend. In a matter of minutes I had a cooler full of shad. I put a few slits on each side and I have never caught so many catfish on this lake. Man was it fun. I netted enough shad for about four fishing trips. Could you freeze them and still...

    tile paint

    Anybody know of any type of paint that would be suitable for bathroom wall tile? It is also in the shower so it will be in a wet area. We only have one bathroom so a complete remodel is out of the question right now. I can't take this 1950's pink decor much longer.

    river fishing

    I visited a state park in Missouri today that the Meremac river runs through. It has a nice beach and swimming area that the wife and my step daughter could swim and lay out while me and my step son walk down river to fish. We both enjoy the thrill of catching catfish. The problem is I have...

    cast net

    I bought a cast net to try to catch shad for catfishing. I was practicing in the back yard this evening. You know so I don't look like a complete idiot at the lake, right? Well I ended up getting it tangled on the neighbor's telephone drop. I was able to get it untangled after about ten...

    gas trimmer self feeder

    I just aquired a Ryobi 780r gas trimmer. I did some carb work on it and got it running pretty good. The thing that is drivin me crazy is I can't seem to get it to feed more line when I bump it on the ground. It seems like a simple mechanism, but I cant figure it out. I found a manual on the...

    fishy taste

    I caught a couple of nice channel catfish today. The problem is the catfish from this pond always seem to have a fishy, muddy taste. I thought that at one time I heard about a salt water concoction to soak the fillets in before you cook them or freeze them. Does anybody know this recipe or...
