    Fishing

    I'm with you, other than I guess I kept some Crappies yesterday but we pretty much munched them down right away and they were not the big ones. Caught a few in the 15inch range but they quickly went back as did the potato chips,.

    Fishing

    Biggest I caught up here last year was 47", of course I was bass fishing with a 1/2oz rattle trap and not even using my Muskie tackle. A lot of lakes up here have a minimum keeping size of 50"+. In my book, I won't keep one unless she's a record fish.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!!! I just tried to order my rims and tires from TireRack and they say they will rub. The M5board doesn't seem to think so, but the Rack says they have had problems in the past and won't ship them without noting that I may have some rubbing problems unless I roll my fenders. Those effin' bastards!!!

    Mostly yes, but hey darken a bit in the livewell. Not unlike smallmouths, which I never keep but everyone I catch I put in the well for two reasons. First they look much better in pictures as the dark stripes develop and more importantly they don't become disoriented Muskie food when you release them. I have let a couple 3+lb'ers go just to watch a Muskie chow them down about when they hit the water. Even had a Muskie take shade underneath my boat and follow me around, makes me wonder if they are just looking for a released fish as a snack...and of course, I tried to catch him but he wanted nothing to do with my artificials at such close range. We have whites and blacks, but I really don't fish for panfish. Since our other seasons are closed though it is a way to get out on the water. Had to take my buddies boat as mine needs a new impeller and h20 pressure gauge--which I just ordered. Can't wait for the opener...

    Fishing

    About 5 o'clock yesterday we decided to pop out for a couple hours and chase some panfish. Kept some of the crappies (between 9-11"--smaller or larger they went back) ended up with a limit for all three of us by 7:30. Fun day, at one point I went 9 fish for 10 casts all of them except one were in my 'slot'. I really can't wait for the bass/muskie season to open in a month. Here is a pic of our bounty:

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Anyone experienced in travelling in Europe? I have to go to a meeting in Germany in July and thought about taking a train around to see a few other things but don't know of a good site or way of navigating their train systems: As long as it makes my ticket cheaper, my company should allow me to expense some extra travel (aka fly into Amsterdam and take a train, Paris...sort of thinking about hopping on a commuter plane to Kiev to visit a good friend of mine as well).

    Looks like some krispy Kronik Doenutz. They are good till the 2-3 one, then the sugar overload kicks in Only if they are fresh.

    HOOPTIES!!

    This drove by me, the owner looked like he was going to pull a gun when I started to photograph him, but dang I couldn't help it. The back of the car has a DUB icon on it, you can see it because moving and camera phone = teh svck but it is there: And the best is the rims, way wrong offset and I think they are only 14's, 15's at best. Really bad lowering job, you should have seen this thing bounce. Pretty much a hooptie.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    I really love the way superchargers feel, completely give it to me now especially with a little displacement.
  22. I have two 10w0-4's laying around and my buddy has a 21 Chris Craft with a crap ass stock stereo. I am going to "give" him my 10w0 to use so I have something to listen to in his boat. He has a RFPunch 301x (75w x 4 at 2ohm or 40x4 at 4). Currently we are going to bridge the back 2 channels for the subs and power the fronts off the other half of the amp. Hopefully he will give me some money to spend on a sub amp shortly thereafter. JL's rec'd ae for .75cuft sealed or 1.25 ported for a car. Without cabin gain would you use a different size. Also, wondering on what you might tune it to if it were me it would be real low, but output is more of a concern here and when you talk about porting in the 40Hz range it is something I have never done. So I am looking for opinions. All numbers nominal: FS 24.2Hz Qts 0.400 Qes .420 Qms 8.560 Vas 2.45 ft3 Xmax 0.340in 85.7dB Sd 54.7 in2 Re 3.86ohm RMS 125w Also, if anyone has some bargain 6.5" speaks that you would like me to try and sell him let me know too.

    Nice, can't believe he is going to have his kids sit on it instead of a seat though.
