Mike O's friend Hank in NY made me some real nice rods:

Yes, amazing. Very pretty.

AndreF

Stephan, you might find this site interesting/helpful/confusing even:

Very cool

AndreF

Yeah, Ray, running a Go Devil is like arm-wrestling a 500 pound gorilla, be very careful or it will dislocate your shoulder, like 4WD in ruts. No reverse either. These are easy to turn and have reverse. The cat's meow in the marsh. Usually one to a boat tho.

AndreF

Rick, I don't think that's a big deal in the long run. Good luck. Been there. I'm sure more knowledgeable people than me will give you fitting advice. BUT: UV- Tell 'em about the time we lost an engine going out of S Pass- we had never intended to go out of the pass as the wind was ripping and there...

AndreF

We have hummers already too. I hope it's not a bad omen for hurricane season........the insurance industry is acting like it will be a bad year. Forecasters have been quiet too.

AndreF

Pretty mean, Bruce. Especially 'cause you have seen mine, but I won't tell.
You're still welcome at my house.

AndreF

like Paul did

Of course, in deep water, just dropping your anchor w/the line cleated off gives you direction. The more line the more direction, depending. Easy to recover and not messy.

During my banking days in Morgan City, when the oil patch dried up in the early 80's, we had to seize some boats. One, I met at some dock in S Louisiana, I think a 110 foot crew boat, with a Captain as after the boat tied up as directed, the whole crew was dismissed (by US Marshalls), much to their ...

AndreF

Good report, Mark, thanks. Cabo is a special place.

Tommy- Charlie Manson had a boat?

AndreF

Maybe someday, someone will find my Boston Whaler missing since Katrina (2005).

AndreF

When I went on a cruise i took my handheld VHF and soon found the channels to scan to listen to hear the captain & other crew members talking all hours of the night and day. Interesting.

Not much lately, Doug. Katrina was brutal. Moved my boat inland on the Tickfaw some 110 miles from Venice after she took my Camp at Port Eads and destroyed Venice. We built a camp on the Tickfaw and that, with now five grandkids, has curtailed fishing for the whole family for awhile. Am staying in f...

I, too, enjoyed reading about her life. Sorry for your loss, Brew.

Hurricane experts admit they canâ€™t predict hurricanes early; December forecasts too unreliable Tuesday, December 13, 2011 By Tom Spears, The Ottawa Citizen Two top U.S. hurricane forecasters, famous across Deep South hurricane country, are quitting the practice of making a seasonal forecast in Dec...

AndreF

I was thinking the same thing....he must be in training...........

AndreF

So sorry.......

AndreF

Ditto, r.
I watched the "dancing tugs" too- Ha!
Would like to see and hear it run in the water.

AndreF

That's a deal, UV, we'll make the drop this week, huh?

AndreF

Damn, Pete, how many is that now? Must be a record.

AndreF

That was great. Thanks, Frank.

AndreF

Chances are pure water will not be a sign of lower unit seal problem as water is all the way up in the head. Drain the lower unit and see. If it is cloudy, there's water in it and you should clean thoroughly and change all seals. A brand new motor can lose it's seal from mono line wrap on shaft. Ins...

AndreF

Mark, spear is attached to a float- not the diver. See orange float on deck w/cable attached.

AndreF

One hell of a rig, for sure. Cocking it must be a bitch.......Nice fish, very, very impressive.

AndreF

Me too, Ray, it's past time.........

AndreF

Congrats to you Neil.
U Markey knows how to live, I can tell........

AndreF

Frank,
We bought one and so far have cooked two meals- cooked chicken, veggies and steaks & veggies. Used my heat gun to check temp and I get the surface to 350-400 and put the stuff on- really good. Thanks for the tip.

AndreF

Way to go, Marshall. Congrats for sure! She looks great.

AndreF

Yeah, Frank, I hate the grill bars sticking to the food too. Going to look into one immediately.

Dug- can you give me your CC number?

AndreF

Sometimes I use Zesty Italian salad dressing

AndreF

The little AC unit for sleeping at nite Scott mentioned let me keep my sanity for 11 days w/o after Gustauv.
Good luck to everyone.

AndreF

Good luck, Charlie!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kiss your baits for me.

AndreF

Makes me smile

AndreF

Congrats Neil !!!!!!

AndreF

Great Gert

AndreF

Way to go, Neil........

Capt Pat- was da deal? you finished? any fish in there? any local critters moved in? algae problems? how's evaporation (or the dreaded term-leaks)? any plants?

AndreF

We miss you , Paul, but trust you're doing good work.

At Snow's funeral today , being a retired motorcycle cop, there were at least 35 police motorcycles in the procession. Pretty impressive. Alot of cop cars too.

AndreF

Great stuff, rr, almost worth another trip to TSL for another idea! I remember you did a book for Mike's lung cancer recovery you gave him at TSL, right........?

AndreF

He was a retired Baton Rouge City policeman who saw his partner gunned down in cold blood for no reason.

AndreF

Peter, every area has it's channel favorites but channel 5 is a good one to use, as not many people use it, probably. Put both units on low power to talk that close or they'll squeal.

AndreF

Nice trip, Jack, congrats. I used to tell people running the river: "don't cut corners".
Any constuction activity at Port Eads?
If you're ever in the Tickfaw area and want to pick your boat up to check her for anything you're welcome to use my lift.

AndreF

I like it, alot.
