1 AnswerFishing7 years agoWhat was the most memorable fish you have caught?
Not necessarily the largest, that ONE that made a lasting memory for whatever reason.
For me it was a 35# blackfin tuna. Yes it kicked my butt, yes I wanted to hand the rod off, yes my arm ached when it was finally over and yes I had to take a several minutes break. The fish was 10# shy of the world record and 3# shy of the Fl. record at the time. Dang he was a big un!
Please share your story.

2 AnswersHome Theater7 years agoJust for fun question-most popular boat name?
I heard this on a fishing show I was listening to this morning, a guy who normally knows what he's talking about. Overall, and I guess that would be U.S., what is the most popular name to give a boat? Yes you can find the answer on the internet, but then you would be cursed by the fishing Gods for years to come.

1 AnswerFishing9 years agoCan you recommend a reliable, accurate weather station?
I currently have an oregon scientific WMR80A that needs to be replaced. One that will give outdoor temp., humidity, barometric pressure, display time and wind speed & direction. Don't need rain gauge but I know it's included.The one I have now only reads wind speed every 30 secs. or so. If there's a brief 30mph gust, it won't register, only shows speed at moment it sends signal. Appreciate all suggestions.
1 AnswerWeather9 years agoNeed help in selecting a tablet?
I believe I want the android operating system but am open to other suggestions. I consider myself semi-tech literate. My primary use would be e-mail, net, streaming movies/music, photo and some office functions (documents, spread sheets, presentation).
Any advice or experience from satisfied or disappointed tablet owners to help me make my decision would be appreciated.
Thank You

5 AnswersGarden & Landscape1 decade agoAdvice on savings bonds purchased in 1990's?
These bonds don't mature(stop earning interest) until 2020- 2023. They're earning 4%, not bad for now. I'm thinking best to hold as long as possible. I really don't want to cash as that would bump taxable income and could mess things up with other matters to be considered.So do I hold and take the 4%, or can I do better.
Just looking for thoughts from anyone with some knowledge . Thanks!
