Same here. I shot a spike around 12yrs old with a winchester 30-30 at about 120-130yds. The good ole days!
re: Why is boat storage so expensive??
Posted by bj0969 on 5/7/25 at 10:05 am
Because it’s a luxury item. At least that’s my thought anyway.

Over the last 20+ years I have had great luck with the WalMart marine batteries.The amount of money I have spent on these batteries across 3 boats still hasn't reached the cost of these new fancy lithium batteries.

If you're in Louisiana you can support some local boys and get a pair of the Wingman Waterfowl ankle boots. I personally don't have any but know people that do and they say they are the most comfortable ones they have worn.

re: Shingles vax: Yay or nay
Posted by bj0969 on 2/20/25 at 1:54 pm
I got it when I turned 50 mainly because I've seen relatives with shingles. Screw that! The first shot was fine just like any other, the 2nd one a couple months later sucked balls! It felt like she injected a damn football in my arm. I didn't feel bad but my arm and shoulder hurt for a few days. But all in all way better than getting the shingles!

re: DOTD wants to close Washington street exit off of I-10 Bridge...
Posted by bj0969 on 2/14/25 at 2:14 pm
The amount of morons that are driving south from I-110 and bypass the new Washington street exit and completely frick up traffic to exit the original exit is mind boggling. Just this past Wednesday a fricking school bus did it, a couple of weeks ago a BRPD unit did it. I personally witnessed it right in front of me. That exit being open is one of the single most moronic things on that section of the interstate!!
re: Why isn’t this board upset about Elons contract with the military?
Posted by bj0969 on 2/14/25 at 9:31 am
I'm fairly certain I read that the Tesla contract is not actually a contract but rather a solicitation to EV manufacturers gauging instrest prior to a request for quote. It was actually sent out under the Biden administration but has since been put on indefinite hold.

Look up Red Dirt Tractors in Alexandria, La. They have some awesome sales going on right now on Mahindra's. We have a compact Mahindra 35hp 4x4 w/loader that we use exactly like you are describing in Clinton on 10ac. I would say its virtually bulletproof.
re: Another Bay Boat price question... 175 hrs on a 15 year old boat
Posted by bj0969 on 2/7/25 at 10:06 am
I personally have a 2005 bay boat and motor, a 2 stroke carburated johnson, that was purchased new by my father. And although it has no hour meter or ecm to record hours I am almost certain it has less than 250 hours. I had the same boat as my dads only a 2003 that I purchased new with a 2 stroke yamaha that i sold in 2020 with maybe 350 hours. Those hours on the boat you are referring to are probably accurate as most people only use their fishing boats to fish and most peoples run time on a fishing trip is 2 hours or less.
