"Right now Skeena Steelhead are in serious trouble, trouble like they have never experienced before. The Tyee Test Fishery is presently showing the stock is at one of the lowest run sizes in the 68 years of operation...."...
No one is giving them away for free, but there is such a thing as the "Power Drifter" boat, that combines the shallow draft, high freeboard, and front-end-rocker of a driftboat with a transom designed to hold an outboard....
Used to love reading "Field & Stream" and "Outdoor Life" back in the 80's and daydream about everything from heaving giant deer-hair frog patterns at "MONSTER Texas Largemouth!!!" to crawling up to a placid chalk-stream in England on my hands and knees and pitching size 22 dries to impossibly...
Valve to consolidate partially-filled butane canisters. Mostly worth it to never have to take two partially full canisters, wonder what I'm going to do with a 1/8 full canister and just leaving it on a shelf for years, etc:
Looks like someone lived one of my vacation nightmares....

We left California en route to Idaho.
After a few nice days at City of Rocks, we headed for Salmon and our final trip prep. Just past the small town of Carey, Idaho, the axle on our raft trailer blew up. It's impressive to see your...

Just throwing this out there as an FYI - if you search/shop/wait sometimes you can find used high-end natural-gas grills on sale at a pretty significant discount to propane versions since so few people have gas hookups - then quite easily convert them back to propane. All you have to do is swap...
-Spend the extra money on either Timken or National bearings/races/seals if you're going to invest the time in replacing them yourself.
-It's worth investing a bit of money in a bearing seal/race driver kit and a bearing packer to make that job faster/easier/cleaner.
-If you're like me and...
Now that everyone is fessing up who is going to come forward and admit to combining fly gear and downriggers?
Now that I've got the gear I've been toying with the idea of running a dummy-flasher on on a downrigger an just clipping in my fly-rig to do some trolling once I'm done casting for the...
I'm the least religious person I know, but as I've gotten older I've come to appreciate the many centuries of wisdom embedded in the "Seven Deadly Sins."
Seems like there's a pretty solid bang-for-the-buck in the realm of long-term happiness/contentment that comes with just avoiding...
Have you tried just rinsing it or pressure washing? I've got a ton of "crazing" on the interior of my '75 Whaler but restoring that is a project that's going to have to wait until my kids are grown up.
