    Any of you guys into kayak fishing?

    I've done a ton of canoe fishing and a bit of kayak fishing. Finally sprung for a fishing kayak. Not a top end one and I plan on doing some mods to make it my own. The revues are mixed on older models but this one is the 3rd gen hull and much better tracking. Already added outriggers(very narrow)--

    Any fishing reports out there?

    Here in the Dallas area the whites/hybrids/ stripers are running and on the move in the rivers! All this rain has really turned them on! The largemouth are pre-spawn and hitting slow moving crawdad mimics. Been catching some nice bass in my river for the last month. The crappie are staged and...

    Fire hazard weather--a lesson

    Just how dry is it and how fast does it get dry? Carl the pet rocket turtle gave me a lesson. The other day we had some pretty good storms come through here. I was surprised to see hazardous fire condition warnings posted before the rain was even over! Of course there was high wind conditions...

    Dallas area members, I need a favor

    To bottom line it. I need you to keep your ears open. A couple weeks ago we lost our Digger to a massive infection. She was 14. She was a Black lab/pit mix(mostly Lab). We have had the talk and want another little buddy. Sammy the Wolf gets along with pups. She;s getting old too at 16 , so a...

    I cut the cable! DVR suggestions?

    Yea, I finally did it. We were going to do this earlier but we negotiated a lower price of about 100 bucks a month for cable/internet/ phone(we don't use). Just got a letter from spectrum(charter pos) that our rates were going up 50 bucks. After 2 hours on the phone with customer no service we...

    The Digger is hurting and scared

    Most of you have seen the pics of Digger my Lab. Yesterday I left for work and she was fine as well as when I got home. We did our usual afternoon nap and when we got up she had lost some of the motor control in her rear legs. There was no sign of difficulties prior to this in fact we romped...

    Christmas want list-not rocketry related--not yet!

    As it turns out there's not much Deb and I need, we're pretty lucky that way. But, I would like Santa to bring me a couple things this year. A new Paashe air brush and compressor would be nice- mine is about 45 years old! I think a VR set for my Play Station 4 would be fine along with Ace Combat...

    For me it's when these guys show up! Both in Dallas and Atlanta, we might get one more quick cold snap but the winters back is broken! It's a Crane Fly--and how in the world they get into a sealed up house I'll never know. But they manage--there's yur sign!--

    Rock auto parts?

    I was referred to them from a friend. I needed a couple of O2 sensors and a timing belt for the Sequoia. I gotta tell ya, there is no reason for me to ever go anywhere else for auto parts unless I just have to have it right now!!! The prices where 1/2 to 1/4 of the brick and mortar stores (I...

    Often overlooked home maintainance problem

    So the other day I was drying some cloths . I went to get them and noticed that they were still damp--hmm---odd. The cycle had stopped about 1/3 the way through.

The web site is marginal at best--do they have an open house? ,airshow? I see there is also a CAF museum at the same airport. Any info would be...
