As already mentioned, Under water lights are for watching fish, lights above water are for catching. Highly recommend above water lights over underwater.

Freefly and other bamboo shirts are comfortable as hell but I don't like them if theyre getting wet or sweating. I think the other dri fit type materials are cooler to wear in the summer.

Magellan or Bassdash on amazon are pretty cheap and good enough for a fishing shirt if thats what you're looking for. Not as nice material as columbia, simms, aftco, but again if youre looking for something to get blood and slime on.

It's obvious the future of waterfowl hunting in Louisiana has been trending in the wrong direction for awhile, what I cant understand is why South Texas and Mexico still seem to get plenty of birds every year. There's a ton of water and not a fraction of the pressure as you see in the lower Ms flyway but most of the water is saltier than the gulf so its tough for me to believe the habitat is better.

It's a small sample size but I spent a few days in Port Mansfield, TX after Christmas and one evening saw thousands of birds get off what I think was the King ranch and head to wherever they were roosting out in the bay. It was the most birds I had ever seen, waves and waves of thousands of birds. It was all redheads and scaup but was impressive to see. The guy I was with that spends a lot of time down there said there aren't as many birds down as usual. So obviously weather plays a part in it but something else is up.

We hunted 3 mornings with 3 guys and had no problem shooting 3 man limits each morning of teal, spoons, a few pintail and divers mixed in on public land.

I referred someone on here a few years ago and I believe theyve been back every year.

I cannot really find where yamaha starts after the thermostat kicks in like my mercury used to do or if it starts peeing automatically once started.

Idk about the 25HP but 225 yamaha starts peeing when you start it.

6.1% in TX last week

Big palm leaves if you can find them. Havent done it personally but have seen others use it. If you can find them somewhat fresh theyre pretty wide so would provide a fairly quick base and then can add grass on top.

Those sho’s had some major head issues a few years ago.

Have a buddy who had a cracked head and have heard of the same thing on a few different occasions. Have ran a regular yamaha 250 for awhile and its been bullet proof but IMO I'd avoid the SHO. Don't have much experience with the Merc's

Buy one of those outlet tester that will tell you if you have the ground/neutral/hot wires wired correctly.

I can do a good bit of DIY work but don’t really understand electrical other than rewiring things how they came out. This has saved me a few times.

Something like this. Every house should have one

I have a 4 yr old lab and have dealt with it her whole life. Seems to somewhat have grown out of it.

I used to think it was water related but she’s had them without being in any water for a month or so. I still always try to rise her ears after she swims. Usually the left ear. I tend to think it may have something to do environmentally like allergies, seems to get them more often in the spring.

Have a buddy that’s a vet I got to give me an extra bottle of mometamex antibiotic so I at least don’t have to pay for a vet visit when she gets one. It usually knocks it out after a couple of days.
