Do not know how he managed this other than lots of alcohol. This is and easy pass to navigate and it looks like he tried to cut between the rocks and the beach. big no no. Boat crashes on jetties in Perdido Pass - WKRG

I think this would work. I have a cat pressure washer pump attached to an electric motor under the boat shed to wash my boats. I do not see why it would not work if you mounted it on the boat. Something like this but it did not come on a cart. I did buy it from northern tools. The motor and...

Yep it is all good until they eat you dog or one of the kids. I raise and train bird dogs. My current dog was not cheap and I probably have over 2,000 hours in training the dog. I use the pond in my backyard to train my dogs. Needless to say any alligator in my pond or yard is handled...

Yep that show is interesting. I know most of the people on the show and my wife handled one of the cast members divorce. BTW that show is reality TV almost noting is real. The population increase is due to most fishermen not fishing anymore because of price. 5 years ago they were getting around...

There was about a 12' alligator dead on side of the highway about a mile form my office. The price of alligator has dropped so much not many people are trapping them. They are quickly over populating in South Louisiana. Last summer I walked out to get in my truck to go to work and a 10'...

We have used sections of 6 inch PVC pipe to keep weeds off of boat ramps and out of slips. You fill them about 1/4 of the way with water and cap them off. Place several sections in the water around the slip. From the picture it looks like these weeds are floating so it should work.

Steve, That sounds great. Next time I'm in Thibodaux I will treat you to lunch and pick your brain.

Steve, Unfortunately my wife and I will not be able to make it. We will be going two different ways with our daughters this weekend. One has volleyball tournament and the other has softball tournament.

Steve, I got your PM I have to check with the wife and see if my daughters have softball or volleyball game. If they do not we will stop by for a little while. Hope we can make it.

Yep they are very nice. Talked to a couple passing through on an 44 Island gypsy a few weeks ago that had to stay for a few days because of work on the locks. They complement the city for the condition of the docks.

Just an FYI for anyone traveling the ICW in the Morgan City, La area. I recieved the below email today. To all stakeholders: We were notified by the Corps of Engineers that the Atchafalaya River is expected to rise significantly to around + 5 in about 10 days. Bayou Boeuf Lock will have to...

Look into the Airmar P79. http://www.airmar.com/productdescription.html?id=3 It mounts in the hull and the transducer sits in a liquid. I think it was antifreeze. I had one in a few boats that I did not want a through hull and had good success with the P79. It was good for depth up to about...

Why not use 316 stainless tubing and fittings? We use it at work for all sorts of things. You can get a 20' joint for about $35 and the fittings are about 10 each. It is not hard to bend. I think it would be a lifetime fix and it would look good.

My wife and I are considering purchasing a trawler> I know we cannot afford an new boat but are looking for something 10 to 15 years old. We are wanting to attend a couple of boat shows just to get a feel of what different manufacturers offer and try and find some built by that manufacturer that...

After 5 days of north wind and low tides in Louisiana this is what one of my favorite fishing spots looked like. I wish I could have launched the boat because I know with the low water the fish were stacked up.

I wore my LaCrosse pull overs with a pair of wool socks and my feet stayed warm and dry. I always keep these near the back door so if the yard is wet I can walk back to the pond without getting my feet wet. http://www.lacrossefootwear(dot)com/men/all/all-boots/trekker-ii-7-brown.html I also...

I never thought I would see this at my house in Louisiana. We ended up getting right at 5 inches on Friday. Talk about a mess when it all started melting.

I don't know if you are aware of a product called Belzona. They make several different epoxies. We have used these products to fix gouges inside of exchanges heads in chemical refineries. When we take the heads off sever years later the epoxy is still great shape an shows no wear. May be worth a...

We had a old 6v71 in a house boat we owned. They were both great motors. Only problem I can really remember was having to replace the shut down on the 671 a few times. Oh and the fact they are like a tom cats they mark their territory, with oil instead of piss.

Wow I never realized there were so many people in Louisiana with trawlers.

I have been lurking on this site for several months and finally decided to join. I will start off by saying that there is tons of information that you can learn by reading the post on this site. Maybe one day I can use this information on by own boat. So here is my story. My wife and I are in...
