AMEN OLDTIMER57!!!! Isnt that something?! Lets not underrate it though. I know youre no trying to sound arrogant. haha Its not arrogance, its truth! Not only does it happen at the pump but, it happens at the ramp, on the lake, even going down the highway( This is not for every boat owner so, please, take caution! Only, achieved by dedicated and experienced Cat owners!!!)! Please, dont get offended at us if you pull along side of us and want to commend us on our brand new 10 yr old boat and we just give you a friendly . We already know what your comments or questions are. We are experts at this and are very safety conscious! We would hate to endanger your or others lives!!We are not trying to ignore you nor do we think we are better than you. This just a norm!!! Ive owned a Cat since 94 and it happens alot. Even when I owned my 94 pantera II and it was 10 yrs old, they still wanted to know how I liked my new boat and if it was broken in yet. Id just say “I love it. Heck no, its only 10 yrs old, it aint broke in yet! Yeah, its alot like a Vette. It draws alot of looks and a lil drool from time to time but its when you get behind the wheel that you really get the feel of what sets them apart! Many people yern for them, but feel they are out of their league, and if they took the step of getting in one, theyd become hooked, A CAT JUNKIE! They have a fear of being set apart from the world, ousted from the click! Well, Jesus was ousted and set apart from the world. His word says, ” Be in this world but not of this world.” Im a follower of Christ so, guess what, Im not in the click either!!! Let me let guys who fear taking a step to be a CAT JUNKIE in on a secret! WE HAVE OUR OWN CLICK!!!! LOL Kinda like the sayn “Its jeep thang, you wouldnt understand ( I have a 2000 jeep wrangler w/ a 10″ lift kit that gets the same responses i do as my CAT so i DO understand! )” well, ” ITS A CAT THANG AND YA NEED TO UNDERSTAND!!!! HAHASorry, I went off like that–NOT!haha Just remember, Jesus was the greatest Fisherman and Fisher of Men! Last edited by basscattn94 on March 4th, 2008, 2:02 am, edited 1 time in total.

I know He doesnt favor anyone in a literal sense of favoritism. I stated that in fun and as an appeal to others that share our love of the sport. I guess, I should have stated that He desired to hang around fisherman and water. You are right, the Lord is no respecter of character. He favored( or chose) fisherman probaly because they had characters others didnt. They would have to be very skilled on how, where and when to catch fish, which would be useful also in leading people to Chirst. They also were strong, not discouraged easily, patient and people oriented. They also had business savvy in order to sell their catches and convince people why they should buy what they had to offer. They had to speak different languages because their travel took them to many towns so, what better people to travel with. They could communicate w/ many diverse people and were respecters of the laws. They knew how to operate within their limitations and were good judges of character. Jesus probably also chose fishermen because their job took them to so many towns that they were familiar with the territories and therefore they would have an easier time into the transition of their calling to “Go out into all the world and preach the gospel”. Another character of fishermen were they worked good in pairs or teams. That was and is vital because each partner could feed off of each others strengths and weaknesses thus, balancing out each others giftings. So, in reality, we could probably say Jesus did favor fishermen. His love and offerance to salvation shows no parciality but, it sure seems a choice in character leaned towards the fisherman and “Fisher of men”! Good thing the Lord isnt a respecter of character according to our shortcomings or failures. Wed all be destined to take a trip to see the for eternity! His blood shed on the cross covers all our sins and failures.(Thankyou Lord) Fisherman74, I think we spend more time than we realize being fisher of men. It doesnt have to be the sold out ,quit your job, Jesus freak( though some of us did and are lol!) but, just the everyday glow others see on our faces and how we live our lives. People tend pay more attention to actions rather than words.Though we dont always understand things, its the glorifying Him in the good as well as the BAD! YOU MAY NEVER KNOW WHAT IMPACT THIS LITTLE POST WILL HAVE ON OTHERS! These discussions are healthy and are a good way to grow in our knowledge and faith. All we can do keep glorifying Him and sharing with others, at least, UNTIL THEY RUN US OFF!!! God bless

Sure theres a guy named Hogface that lives in the neighborhood but hes tolerable. Ward, so I see ya met my uncle in Grand Encore! Anyone wanna go in halves on a boat stall cause i got lost once I hit $16??!!! I ran outta fingers and toes!!Last time I saw dat many “0”s was the other night in the Louisiana lottery and I dont even play it!!!I just figured out Im not a REAL MAN either ,cause I cant handle an outdoor kitchen, bath, or bedroom!! I HATE GETTN MY BOAT WET, MUCHLESS MY TOILET AND BED!!!!!! Surely there is someone out there with a pocket book the size of the nations jail population!!!! Seriously Tomhank, I hope you find buyer for what sounds to be a beautiful place. God bless Chris
Well Tony, Send it up my way and when I get finished fishing with it…….oh, say about a week on Fork………Ill make it look good as new, if not, Ill give it a few more scratches so theyll match!!!!!!!I use BIG DADDYS wood polish! It depends on the grade as to how much abrasives it contains. You can find it at most southern aquatic impoundments and is in correlation to most flooded timber! If you really want to make those minor scratches disappear, we have a high quality abrasive that is indigenous to our area(as you know!lol) and will make those minor scratches virtually unnoticable! It is called “sucker rod” and rightly named! I think I have mine sold and I need to get to Fork SOON before I have withdrawls!!! God bless Chris
Well Mike, You never know whats in Caddo Lake! I know I contributed a few prop blades, myself! LOL The rebar seems to grow naturally in Caddo too! Us Louisianans call it sucker rod” cause, if you are the one that is privileged to get on one of those rods………youre the SUCKER that has to listen to that gut wrenching sound and pay the price as a result!!! tae73 As far as a black bottom, I love them. I have had a black bottom and my present one is a red bottom. I would less likely buy a white bottom than a colored bottom, just because they show less dirt. Both colors have seen enough stump time from Lake Fork, Caddo, and the Red River to make ya head spin and the scuff marks are few and minor. I have had some that were worse but it wouldnt matter what color the bottom was, they would still show. Like BCB and Phil said, they are pretty easy to buff out unless you get into the gel coat. I have even used black wax on my black bottom. I would definitely go with a black bottom(myself) because, it breaks the boat up great and gives it that sleek look! Whatever color you decide on, wont be a wrong choice because its hard to make a Cat ugly! God bless, Chris
Glynn, My prayers go out to you and his family. The Lord says a “true friend sticks closer than a brother.” He also never promises us tomorrow so we need to grasp everyday and the Word also says” Do not worry about tomorrow because today is sufficient for its on trouble.” Take each day as it comes and allow the healing process to run its course. To have aquantences is good but to have two, or even one, true friend in life is considered a blessing . True friends are rare and it sounds like both you are blessed to have each other! God bless, Chris
Congratulations on ya new Puma! Youll enjoy the feel of the “Big Cat” of the family! God bless Chris
DEFINITELY NOT LAKE FORK! The Pierces were all there for the event and, after talking to Mrs. Jan, she said they have been on a dead run for the last couple of weeks. I pray they made it back safe and sound. God bless Chris
Hey Chad, Send me some pic.s of your Cougar and Ill see if I can get them posted for you. My email address is [url=mailto:basscattn@yahoo.com]basscattn@yahoo.com[/url] Have a blessed day. God bless, Chris
Youd be surprised what a 1/2″ will do when you lower your motor as BCB said. I ran into the same thing on a Pantera II I had. Im with Phil….another vote for lowering the motor. God bless
