My dad just picked up a 49cc power (Mag III I think) auger made by OPE. I think I may have paid a little to much ($150)....but oh well it is from a hunting friend of ours. I have a few questions...
When was the last time these were made, or are they still?
Also...the thing has not been used very much and looks brand new (the guy takes very good care of things and works on small engines)....anyone know what to expect or if this is a decent power auger. I have searched but not been able to find much info. I though it was a Jiffy I was buying but my dad called after getting home and said it was an OPE...
I can't pick it up until next week...but I am eager to get it out as I am sick of drilling holes by hand!!!
Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
