Been know to dip the net now and again lol Ice fish too! Notice the old TRX200 back in the day.... it was my boys Had the TRX350 and 300 Fourtrax on the ice with son ice fishing....-good times...

Last year’s fishing trip i learned a lot! We’re used to fishing for trout and bass—we got 25 channels. river was flowing high and fast —I should have better fished the slack water. tackle we had was too light. I also misused my new King Kat reel by throwing out heavy bait, breaking the bail. I’ll fix that bail somehow. stringers we had were too small. We lost about 5 bigguns. so i got the heavy duty Rapala metal stringer rated to 300 lbs. $22. I wanted that Chad Ferguson gripper. i was using a Pike gripper last year but it was barely big enough. Those cats were biting down pretty hard on me—rubbed the skin off the base of my thumb. i had a great food supply and a nice cleaning kit. Coolers of ice, kitty litter bucket filled with gloves, bags, knives, headlamp. All packed on ATV.

For @Tim-ANC broiled sockeye salmon with Tony Cacheres cajun seasoning and lightly brushed with mango chutney the chutney makes a crisp sweet glaze Broil about 7 minutes

well...honestly ?..wd-40 does indeed help my sore bones !.

I got 3 or 4 petcocks that I’ve rebuilt and each has a used red fuel lever cover. I’m asking $125 each plus S&H to buyer. i have some other TRX350 stuff I’d like to pass on—i just bought a new catfish rod and reel i need to pay for lols. TRX350A take off front and rear bumper $55 each. TRX350A CMP cooler carrier NOS $125. TRX350A dash; NOS in wrapper $100. Keihin QA03A rebuilt, new choke valve $200. Keihin QA03A older rebuild but clean $150.

Finally! The inner part of the clutch basket was hanging on the last tooth for some reason. I assembled it on the bench to make sure it made up correctly, reinstalled it and we are good to go. My son is very happy! Sled_22, that's how I started as well. I had a 185S ATC when I was my son's age. It started smoking. My Dad borrowed a repair manual from a friend and we but a new set of rings it it together. Ive been doing it ever since. I'm glad my son is picking up on it as well. Thought about buying him a new one but that would be no fun at all! lol! I'm having a different problem with it totally unrelated to engine problems, but I'll start a new thread for that one.

haha...no..i sold it.

'' sold '' !.

Red (sockeye) salmon. Our family limit is 65 per year. @AKATV do you dipnet?

Last and final update: i am calling this project done !, i will not be doing anything else to this 2005 trx500tm from here on out, here is the final pic's for all you atv porn pic pervs !..lol.

if your talking about about taking it back the dealership where you purchased, i doubt they would weld it being you purchased this bike new from them, might get a machine shop to tach weld it for you, having it tached is a good ideal IMO.

Wow! Was it PT Barnum that said a sucker is born every minute? 🙂

Wow lookit this work light already sold. Not by me

We boiled 25 pounds of shrimp with all the fixin's yesterday , these shrimp were fresh , not frozen and from offshore of Louisiana , call them a 25 count brownie , they were good , very sweet , still got 5 pounds left over for today , Mr Kim showed up and he is never empty handed , he brought 20 pounds of boiled crayfish from Lama's Seafood in Madisonville , excellent , Lama's has been in business for maybe 100 years Cooked up some Great Northern beans with a South of the Border twist , heavy chili powder and Mexican seasonings with two types of sausages , had grilled pork chops and country style ribs , baked mac is an always , there were some dips that were real good ,Deanna made some crab dip that was spicy and I couldn't stop eating it we went riding with 5 bikes , the Arctic Cat got wet and wouldn't start , the Can-Am was pulling him back and it started smoking the drive belt , so the 2020 420 pulled him the rest of the way , it turned into 4 hours of a ride , had 1/2 dozen people showed up and was waiting for us when we got back

My friends were trying to keep their restaurant going so I was eating Vietnamese food three times a week. Of course a tall mug of homebrew every night. then the doc says “hey you’re getting pre-diabetic—what are you doing?“ He says “rice has sugar and so does beer—you need to cut way back!” so I stopped eating rice and that got my standing glucose back down. My friends had by that time closed their restaurant—retirement, COVID etc. anyway watch your glucose @Fishfiles, rice always gives me a sugar crash right after dinner. The doc will want you to count your beers better lol BTW that’s Major Grey’s mango chutney

Those are called pillow traps , there is also another way to catch them , deep water nets

The Mongoose big tire bicycle build is in motion , after a lot of research , went with the Bike Berry engine kit , 2 stroke , in black , 66CCs with stage 4 upgrades , and the Sick Bike Parts shift kit , it has the over sized pedal crank and arms , so a pull start cover will fit

i wipe it all down with wd-40, been doing it this way for years.

I just bought a new catfish rod and reel. I’m gonna be in deep mud if I don’t balance out my collection of stuff so i put some info in the trade/sale place. cant wait to get this gear in the water: Whisker Seeker Chad Ferguson FMJ baitcast rod with an Abu Garcia Ambassadeur CT7000 catfish special. I also got a Whisker Seeker tackle sampler. https://whiskerseeker.com/shop/

Way to go getting that clutch back together! I think we’ve all pinched a clutch plate or two before... nothing better than handing down those skills to your son to be able to help himself and others later on as well

Holy moly shade we figured it was going to take forever to sell!! OK are we sure you didn't buy it yourself just to make this look good....lol

Just tack weld it --put the ground clamp on the shaft when welding it.

Meh, pole fishing

might cut that center out, and make a nice decretive emblem for use on a front door ? or as a mantel fixture ? bet fish would have some ideas on what to do with it.

i wouldnt know what he needs, but he does need some serious help, i just enjoy seeing him make an idiot of himself, which he looks to have a gift for.

My wife recently retired as some might know , so her new hobby is cooking , over the years when I seen nice cook books at flea market and garage sales i would buy them for her , well I have to say she is getting better at it all the time , I have ate more rice in the last few week then all of last year , other than in gumbo or jambalaya I am not a rice guy , but have recently learned , with the right sauce or gravy it ain't too bad , maybe I am afraid of saying it wasn't that good or was just hungry , LOL She done some pepper steak Tuesday that was out the box , last night was chicken breast in a white sauce ---living like a king , LOL This weekend we got a ride party scheduled with crayfish in mind ---- We been talking about a " ride in party " with site members , I am going to set a date this summer and call it the Ride In and invite who ever wants to show up from this site , if no one shows up ---- who might be ready for a road trip to South East Louisiana

I like the setup in the second video

Just finished up the 424 install. Doubled checked the function, & she’s wayy better than the other one. Got the transfer case gear oil changed as well. Wheels all on & torqued. Looking good. Just to toss the rear bumper on now..
