Oh yea! That's right. We had to go buy a new one. Fun trip either way.

Yeah, then we topped it off with a blown tire on the way home.


If i heard right, someone's boat sank in rockport because the same fitting sheared off their boat like tods did to us.

You did. They got all the way out and dropped off the hunters. Parked the boat and hunted. When they came back, the boat was on the bottom.

I've never fixed one David, only read that it can be done. Refer to post 12 and 15, as I think this advice will probably do the trick for you.

Thank you Todd, I had no idea where to even start.

Fried fish always sounds great.

This was the first one I've ever received.

They won't put me on the list.

They got you pegged as a trouble maker

[huntinfool]

They should! Actually I'm OK with several things they do. However there are a few I don't like. However they are in control and are going to do whatever they want. With or without hearing our side.

While the trails are nice to gain access to the forest, the amount of acerage they remove for hunters is alarming.

It's kind of a double edge sword. The Sam is slowly being geared as a more urban park than a hunting area.

I'm concerned about what happens after this new neighborhood is built there at 45 and 1374 (or 1375. Whatever it is right there at New Waverly). You get all these **** Houston yuppies that haven't got a ****ing clue about nature (which should be obvious since they're tearing up a beautiful piece of property and displacing untold numbers of animals from their homes to build look-alike McMansions, but yet they can't see the irony) and don't want any barbarians killing those helpful deers (yes, I said "deers." I know better, but city-slickers don't).

[huntinfool]

I think you meant helpless....Right?

I agree, they'll build homes, displace animals, create more problems and not have a clue. They'll also complain about the deer eating their plants and never even think about how the deer were there first.

That's a whole separate problem. Right now I'm concerned about long trails that take away acres of land that we can hunt. ( Remember we have to be 50 yards away at a minimum) if they consider it occupied, we have to be 300 yards away! ( Both sides) That's a 600 yard path through the woods that we can't hunt. Thereby reducing the numbers of acres we can hunt.

Oh I totally understand. It's death by a thousand cuts.

Oh, and yes. I meant helpless. That's what I get for trying to talk to customers and piddle with TBH at the same time.

Yep. Enjoy it while it lasts. It sucks too. Not near the hunters these days so not near the support in saving these lands for hunting.
