re: Best coastal mapping card for South Louisiana....
Posted by sloopy on 1/15/25 at 11:05 am
Pretty sure you want the hummingbird delta one card that is what I use for hopedale/delacroix/cocodrie. Not many mapping options for a bird compared to simrad/lowrance/garmin.

Crossed over at 5:15 this morning and it wasn’t bad. Heavy stuff must have rolled in later

What’s the deal with the class action? I’m assuming you have to have made repairs already? I have an 18 sierra with 90k miles on it and it jumps forward in low gears after it sits over night. Haven’t made any repairs yet, but waiting for the transmission to shite the bed isn’t the best feeling in the world.

If you’re looking at the skeletors they just came back in stock today. I just picked up a pair to replace my hawk heliums. This is my second season using a saddle so don’t take my word on them. I don’t care for the way the heliums attach to the tree and I’ve read about a few kickouts with them.

Do you like those XOPs? I was between them and the skeletors m, but I think I like the way the skeletors attach to the tree and the rope storage system better.
re: 2-15-24, LDWF: 19 cases of CWD confirmed in deer in northeastern Louisiana

I meant members or would it be agents/biologists going out there to do it. Interesting that the detection came from scrape data.

How did they confirm a bunch of cases out of season? Are they going to let a bunch of dudes out there and wipe out 50% of the population?
re: VW Atlas vs Toyota Tacoma/Crown Signia Opinions?
Posted by sloopy on 9/11/24 at 2:31 pm
How many kids? We went with an atlas as my wife didn’t want to drive a big Tahoe around town. Our kids are 7,5 and 3 and it has plenty of room for what we need. It’s been a great car for the past two years since we bought it. The atlas has the most room of the mid size suvs before having to step up to Yukon/tahoe/expedition class of vehicles.

Always reserve a spot at MSY. I find parking is full more times than not.
re: Humminbird Helix 12

Thanks for the tip on upgrading software. If it’s the “black market” card that you can make yourself they will not work for humminbird as I understand it. I’ve made one for a lowrance/simrad, but humminbird uses a different format from those two.

Does your La delta card still work after updating the software? I’ve read that some people had issues with their cards after updating the unit so I’ve never updated my helix.
As to the card, I didn’t realize the imagery was from 2015, but I find it works well for the hopedale/shell beach/delacroix area. I’d be interested to see what the Navionics cards look like compared to the la delta card, but I don’t know anyone who has one in their humminbird unit.

re: Is the Reggio boat launch still closed?
Posted by sloopy on 5/9/24 at 2:29 pm
There is a new one right across the canal from the old one. Just be warned it is a very steep back down. Pulled up to it one morning and decided to head to sweet water due to tide rolling out and steepness of the launch.

I’ve been meaning to take a trip out there to see what it was all about. I think opening this thread is going to make me go next week.

What all general maintenance/service are you looking to have done? It is very easy to change fluids and what not yourself on that motor.
