    Toolbars for Browsers

    Holy cow that's ugly. I do not use any sort of toolbar, I don't think. I assume it's a search bar and some ads? I think Firefox and most of the alt browsers have most of this functionality built in, with other stuff available via a plugin

    Anybody using the lowrance/LEI chips in there units?

    Look for the Fishing Hot Spots Elite chips for Lowrance units. I think the one we use is either the East or Southern region. I've only carried mine to the Roanoke river, and it has some info on it, but not as much as the lakes. These cards also have extra space on them to allow waypoints to be...

    what is the best Lure all year round ?

    The best lure is the one the fish want, obviously, but you have to toss quite a few at times to figure that out :) I would have to say a jig, but the jig, more than any other lure, it seems, seems to be a 'mystery' lure to most, so if not that, then a smallish plastic worm in a natural color.

    Vehicles Owned

    Yeah, it was a ***** in the bushes at Kerr lake in the Spring! The benefit was that I could fish almost an entire cove at once, and nobody could get in front of me. I sold it after I got sued for swamping a couple of guys on TR-21's, whiny bitches :)

    Vehicles Owned

    Was on another forum (not fishing related, this is the only one of those :) ), and the topic came up of what cars you've owned. Apparently a lot of those guys are a lot younger than I am, or keep stuff longer than I do, but I had like 20 vehicles! I have some pics, and should also include boats...

    ToysRus has TMs

    No kidding :( I thought a boat was a big hole to put money in, but just got a price on a battery for my bike, $75!!! I put one in my truck not too long ago for $40, and need two new deep cycle batteries. 1/2 a paycheck just for juice :(

    Good luck with it. I've got both the SX and STX, and they are really nice reels.

    Trolling motor connection

    Yes, you can run straight to the battery, but that's not recommended, at least without a fuse or circuit breaker inline to prevent things from getting too far out of hand.

    Anyone here experienced trailer failure ???

    It wasn't a tinboat, but I've had a bunk break before, I ended up leaving it as it was after moving the bunk around, short ride home, though. I also lost a wheel on one of my glass boats. Taking a curve on the way to the lake, and grind!!!!! Helluva noise, and I look over to see my wheel...

    camo paint?

    That's a handy link, thanks! A stencil can be made from anything, and being camo, it doesn't have to be perfect. Go get a cardboard box, trace, cut, spray through, then toss when you're done.

    You Tube Video

    Thanks! The music is by Dream Theater, first part of a two part song. Highly recommended, they're actually the #1 and #2 most played songs in my playlist* :) * I reset everything when I got a new machine, so it wouldn't be anywhere close unless I did that!

    Photo Management Software

    I really like Aperture the more I use it, being a Gov't employee, I get a nice little discount as well, so that helps, as it's pretty expensive, but honestly, it's got most things I need, and I only find myself needing to venture out of it for very few things. Pixelmator can be found here, it's...

    Photo Management Software

    What do you guys use to organize/catalog your photos? I'm on a Mac, so it's probably different than everyone else's, but I'm currently using Aperture for catalog and basic edit, with Pixelmator for advanced editing. I just got Aperture, and still trying to learn the interface as opposed to...
