 | Finding artificial reefs in Lake Pontchartrain using gps coordinates - BullredsRus on 5/23/13 at 7:10 pm I have a lowrance HDS 5. Can I program the coordinates from save our lake's website into my unit and find them? Anybody have any luck fishing any of them? More specifically the reef balls located in St. Charles parish bc we'll be launching at the peavine launch out of Laplace. Will try the power...

 | Anyone familiar with Lowrance HDS units? - BullredsRus on 5/8/13 at 8:28 pm I know they have the lake insight and nautic insight models. The last one I had said "US Base Map W/O XD Card". I thought it was a nautic insight, but am now wondering if I was wrong. Could this be why it showed me on land when I was clearly on my boat in the water (sometimes not even very close ...

I really enjoy this place, but I get the above mentioned items of every visit bc they are just too good. Not sure about the rest of their menu. Also top shelf margarita is excellent ...

I had a half a belly and it weighed 6 pounds. Aside from the pink curing salt, I also used regular salt, brown sugar, finely chopped garlic, a little maple syrup, and some Bengal Hickory Grilling Blend from Red Sti...

 | Question to those who have made their own bacon - BullredsRus on 3/13/13 at 8:22 am Trying it for the first time. I looked at several recipes and videos before doing so. I'd say it was about 50-50 on removing the fat/skin before curing or after smoking. Any advice there? I have mine on still but am thinking about cutting it off. Did you flip it every other day, and if so did y...

 | re: Pop-A-Lock scam suspect arrested - BullredsRus on 3/1/13 at 9:15 am Agree to disagree.
I'd say you fell for a story and gave him $20. Now if he physically took money from your wallet then that would be stealing.
I'm not saying what he did was right. I think he's a piece of shite. Just not sure theft should be the charge. ...

 | re: Pop-A-Lock scam suspect arrested - BullredsRus on 3/1/13 at 8:43 am He does look very normal. That's why I think he probably made a killing. Looks like this was his job.
Think a out it, what percentage do you think actually give him anything? 10 percent maybe. When I saw him and told him no he asked another person immediately. If he stays in populated parki...

 | re: Home loan qualification - BullredsRus on 2/18/13 at 10:59 pm Don't know if credit score affects the percentage, but I had a median score of 769 last time it was pulled. It consistently stays around that mark.
So you're saying 41 percent of my gross income should be more than all of my fixed debts such as car notes, student loans, house notes, etc. right...

 | Can you grow grass under a big tree - BullredsRus on 2/14/13 at 6:26 pm I have a rather large water oak in my backyard, and I'm contemplating getting sod this spring. There are lots of roots that break the surface of the ground, but I could add a lot of dirt if that's a problem. I will cut the tree down if I have too, but trying to save that money to put in other plac...

 | Depreciation of a rental house - BullredsRus on 2/8/13 at 1:47 pm I bought a rental house in November of last year. I'm doing my taxes right now, and Turbotax is giving me a $600 depreciation on it (purchase price was $195). Does this sound right? Are they giving me depreciation of a pro-rated amount since I purchased so late in the year?...

Didn't actually bite him, but she was too much of a liability. She ...
