    I don't need power poles. My boat stays where I want it to.



























    Until I put it in the water...

    Lol

    At $1500 each I'll let the boat drift..

    You need a boat like this so you can get to your fishing hole quickly . this boat has a drag racing short shaft motor that can push this boat to 110mph

    I've seen that and plenty of others.
    Tournament fishing ruins everything.
    The local guy wants to go fishing, he has one day or 4 hours of free time and the ramp is full of hi per.
    Boats. Can't park anywhere. They will literally fish over you. Your suppose to give way to them cause their special ?
    When I go to my lake and it's a tournament I just drive by and yell "thanks for ruining my day"..
    I can fish well and I've been asked many times to enter. I want to enjoy myself. Not my idea of fun. If you get off the boat your disqualified.
    Dude I have to pee... So you piss in the lake.

    i used to take route 6 for years to get to Potter.
    When the water trucks started jamming the road, I started taking alternate routes.
    15 from Mansfield to Lawrenceville and then to 49.
    Took 17 a few times past Corning also to 49. That wasn't a bad road...depending on the weather.

    The water trucks beat the piss out of 6 and nothing sucked more than getting behind a dozen of them for 50 miles.

    The fracking has ruined the area IMO. Dirt roads now paved and paved roads get the piss pounded out of them. Traffic is unreal now, especially the trucks. The Ex never would go back there to live and didn't want anyone to know she was born and raised a woodchuck. When she left at first thought now is my chance. But one trip and the traffic was enough to make me stay where I am at. Still love the area it is home. Or was. Here it is the sand for the fracking in the Dakotas but they use trains for that, for the most part.

    Yeah those roads all depend on the weather especially the side roads. And that summer road construction thing. I remember 15 as a 2 lane and also 17 was 2 lane before it became the Southern Tier Expressway. 15 outside of Mansfield made the news all the way out here in 2008 when the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile went off the road and had to be towed out.

    [​IMG]

    From the Wellsboro edition of the Star Gazette (I used to deliver that newspaper on my bicycle LOL):

    Although they didn't relish the experience, they weren't hurt, investigating state Trooper Rex Johnson said.

    Stuck, Volpini called 911 dispatchers in Wellsboro. Though skeptical at first, they notified state police at Mansfield. As passersby called in the crash on cell phones, the dispatchers became convinced that the barkburger was indeed in hot water.

    Johnson, the trooper, grilled the women briefly and concluded that a routine and sober spinout was all he had on his plate.

    "I've pulled out a lot of vehicles," he said. "But that's the first wiener I've ever pulled out."

    It was a first for the women, too. They left none the wurst for wear.

    "Usually we try to keep from scratching our buns," Goudie said. "But sometimes, things go wrong."
