re: 4 acre lake aeration
Posted by Dawg_Fan on 8/23/17 at 7:21 am
I doesn't sound like you're leaning towards a fountain, but if that's what you decide on, DO NOT buy an Aquamaster fountain. They require constant maintenance and they're easily clogged. Go with a Kasco. I used to sell both. I never had a single complaint about a Kasco. Every Aquamaster I sold came ...
re: What's happening to my yard??

Oh, and don't fertilize. Let it recover naturally after treatment. The moths are attracted to new, succulent growth. Fertilizer will compound your problem. Where are you located? I own a spraying company. May be able to treat it if your nearby. ...
re: What's happening to my yard??
Posted by Dawg_Fan on 8/19/17 at 9:56 am
It's sod webworms. Get some granular talstar and treat every 14-21 days or call a professional and have them treat it. It the lawn goes untreated, you will end up with a lawn full of weeds, assuming it's not already at that point. ...
re: Complete Backyard Makeover - Zoysia or St. Augustine
Posted by Dawg_Fan on 8/9/17 at 6:06 pm
Thatch has nothing to do with clippings. Thatch is dead stems, not leaves. St. Aug can develop thatch the same as Zoysia. The reason people relate thatch to fertilizer is because excessive fertilizer causes excessive growth of leaves AND stems. The stem (stolons and rhizomes) grow at a rate which is...
re: someone explain to me this Coastwide Nutria Control Program
Posted by Dawg_Fan on 8/9/17 at 5:47 pm
This is a pretty short-sighted plan, but that's par for the course. Nutria eat floating vegetation among other things. As the alligator population has increased, the nutria population has decreased, which has allowed the floating weed problem to get out of control. Water hyacinth, water lettuce and ...
re: St Augustine sod help
Posted by Dawg_Fan on 7/28/17 at 2:10 pm
If the grass has been down for 3 weeks, you can cut watering back to one day a week. DO NOT WATER AT NIGHT. That will extend the amount of time the leaf is wet and you will end up with gray leaf spot and possibly brown patch. Fertilize it with 1lb of N/1000 sq ft. Lastly, DO NOT WATER AT NIGHT!!!...

I've seen a lot of good reviews on the Navionics maps. I guess it depends on what your looking for. I'm Moreno interested in channel depths and submerged objects. I read a stat the other day that said 68% of boat insurance claims are from hitting submerged objects. Satellite imagery is nice as long ...

I think I've settled on the Lowrance Elite 7ti. There is a $100 rebate if purchased before 7/31, so that makes it even more appealing. Before I pull the trigger, are there any others that should be considered?...
re: Looking to plant some purple & yellow flowering trees along property line - types?
Posted by Dawg_Fan on 7/23/17 at 2:15 pm
Vitex with yellow lantana. Both are extremely hardy. They are deciduous, but your not going to find much that flowers that isn't. You could try duranta(spelling?) too. ...

Posted by Dawg_Fan on 7/23/17 at 1:55 pm
I own a spraying business, so I deal with all types of warm season turfs. Zoysia hands down if your choices are between those two, however, Bermuda is the cheapest and easiest option!!! There's a reason the state and local municipalities spray roadsides with glyphosate/ 2,4-d mix...they're trying t...

I've looked at the Garmin 54 quite a bit. Two friends have them and say they're very user friendly. The problem I have with Garmin is that they don't allow 3rd party cards. I don't like the idea of only being able to use their maps when I may prefer another version...

Good to know. What area(s) does your card cover? Could you send me a screen shot example so I can look at the detail? Doesn't matter where the location of screenshot is. My email is jnoegel@mac.com. Thanks!...
GPS/chartplotter advice
Posted by Dawg_Fan on 7/21/17 at 8:58 pm
I need advice on which setup would best fit my needs. New to inshore/NEAR coast fishing. Looking for something that is as accurate as possible at mapping reefs, wellheads, etc. Partly to find the fish and partly to avoid beating up the transom and lower unit. I'll be fishing the entire LA coast. I k...
