Chuck, Same here. Keep the house heater low and use the Edenpure (what I have) to heat the room you are staying in. Very quiet and safe. Love mine, and it has a remote control- don’t even have to get up to turn it up or down. And I sit in my leather recliner with my back against a heating pad on

Don: Thanks, I think we’ll get a cpl of those as like I said, around here now Propane is well about $3 per gallon, while our electric cost is only about 7 cents per killowatt hour so it came out cheaper last year. We do like having the propane as a backup because when winter storms knock out

Thankfully, my son was shaken up, but not injured. Thank God. We had a similar incident here in the county a few years ago that was fatal. The buck's hind legs came through the windshield on the driver's side. One hoof went through the young man's chest and through his heart. I'm

A deer is nothing compared to totalling a car with a kangaroo. They are solid muscle, and will hop away after totalling a car. On 7/11/2014 6:23 AM, Chuck Alexander wrote: Same here: I had a brother in law killed like that, and my Daddy had a deer total his truck one morning on his way to work.

Reuven: That's normally how the big buck deer do it here. If my son had been going full speed that tin can of a car would have been history. A Kaangaroo might get hot by the car though, then turn around and kick the car as well LOL..How big do those things get (weight) anyway?? Chuck

I was out today on the Provo River. I had a great day but it could have been better. The BWO were out and before them there was a good midge hatch. I caught 10-15 but lost a few and had lots of lookers. Here is my question for the group. I tried a dry with an emerger . Someone once told

I guess it depends on where you're fishing. Around here, SE PA, there usually a mix of caddis and midges, between, the sparse mayfly hatches on the streams I fish. I normally fish a larger caddis, CDC and Elk, size 14-18 as the lead with a size 20-22, midge dry/emerger as the dropper. If

I guess I was too brief. What I was asking was - during a hatch of mayflies you have dries and emergers going on at the same time. I was told the emergers if you were fishing both dry and fishing emergers that the emerger should be one size larger. Thoughts? Sent from my iPad On Nov 6,
