Well now let's not get carried away. Lol. It's been sitting in my driveway for 8 years because of these prices. Just getting tired of all the compounding every year. Haha. Ironically that's what I did today

$275 Thibodaux/Houma. It's insanity.
Where and what size? I didn't find anything under 350-400 for 40' length like 5 years ago. Ant imagine now. I'll pay 275 tommorow if it can fit my boat. Lol.
Bifenthrin. 1oz per gallon. Once a month or every other month. Spray it on EVERYTHING within 100' of your patio, except flowering plants as it will kill bees. I'm talking house, doorways, window frames, soffit, lawn, shrubs, trees. Bonus is that you can cancel the pest control guy as there won't be a living bug on your property.

re: Bay Snapper = Sheepshead

To each their own.....I actually like sheepshead over snapper!
I agree with a few others, sheepshead is up there with the best out of the Gulf.

Ahh my people! I thought I was the only crazy one. I absolutely love sheepshead and will cook it 10 out of 10 times over red snapper. And I say that with red snapper being the fish I fish for most...taste and quality is identical, I just prefer the naturally smaller pieces of the bay snapper.

Guarantee most people could not tell apart a small red snapper from a bay snapper on the grill.

We have duck hunting property north of the ICW in Terrebonne Parish. - bayou black area.

It’s infested. Always had alot. But recently, the population has exploded. Typically in the past, the big ones stayed in the canals and all the females were in the marsh. Nowadays, those huge bulls are everywhere. Scared to hunt my dog.
Now see that's interesting...this year I saw a hundred million 4ft and under, and zero big ones all duck season. Granted it's cold but the little ones never hibernated.

Went shoot nutria one afternoon a month or so ago and saw several bulls in the marsh, zero in the canals. We've been selling all pur tags to Frenchy recently. I'd like to keep a couple for my kids each year but idk.

My experience is gators are fatter and shorter in the dead water (marsh, swamp, etc) and longer and leaner in the high current areas. Obviously not always the case. But those basin gators are long because of the constant current.

As the owner of the Stainless double jet bayou classic, yes, with the oem regulator, you will freeze the bottle once it gets about half way if you have it ripping. I usually just put the bottle in a tub of water to keep it from freezing up. Works wonders. Or just get a 30lb tank. It'll run with the stock regulator.

Anybody been to one of his shows recently? I bought the wife and I tickets to his show at the Wharf on May 12, not realizing that it was the day after Mother's Day.

We were excited at first, but that has worn off recently and considering selling the tickets. Looking for some feedback whether it's actually worth it.

Newsflash to them...it already looks like that....literally none of that red is land. Everything above the freshwater line is floating marsh and zero bottom swampland. Negative 10M% that is all open water in 25 years.

This is the play...head and shoulders. I've got Bajio now, but Smith chrompop is every bit as good.

Getting a Brees in FA is an extreme rarity, so you draft until you find your guy.
I see this regurgitated all the time, yet Brees, Tom, Peyton are 3 absolute legends who were available in free agency at different stages of their careers and all won SB after a change. Then there are guys like Farve, Warner, McNabb, Delhomme (briefly), Vick, etc who were all great and available for one reason or another, and again all reached a SB at some point in their career. NFL history is littered with QBs who changed teams and ended up becoming legends or continued their stellar play. And drafting shitty qb after shitty qb hoping one sticks is how you make sure you are never in a position to land a top free agent QB.

Its definitely deleted and most likely a 4" or 5" straight pipe. If you hear it that much, he most likely has an aftermarket turbo, likely bigger and with more vanes. Most of the time more vanes equal more whistle.

Idk where you located, but anywhere in southern half of LA and this is what your looking for. Raw milk from local dairy. They have regular, and A2(easier to digest)

Winchester SX4
I've had this one since 2017 or 2018 and it's been a good gun.


I don't speak from direct experience, as the only semi auto I've owned is an A400 (which is flawless btw) but I did have my hands on a 20ga SX4 compact and Affinity Compact. Good lord the SX4 was significantly heavier and clunkier. SX4 felt like an old 870, whereas the affinity felt very Benelli like, simple, sleek, light.

Check out the Green Mountain Grills "Ledge Prime" model.

I have had the smaller version for a few years and it is very good quality.


I've had numerous Recteqs with a GMG Ledge Prime sandwiched between. The RT is LIGHTYEARS better. Currently running the Flagship 1100, but previously owned the original Mini (now called 340), then a Bullseye (still have). Then I got the GMG and quickly switched back to RT with the Flagship. Currently the control board is out (i think), and its barely over 1 year old. I dislike it so much I havent even bothered to look at it.

The GMG is literally an easy bake oven. It's terrible at grilling temps, and yet still barely smokes in the low 200s. From my historical cooking notes, everything I made on the GMG took 30min to 1hour longer with a 25-50° temp increase over my Recteqs.
I have one made out of a $10 sheet of foam insulation board glued together and foil duct tape along the seams. Works great. Extremely sturdy. Easy to move going up, easy to install doing down.
