After much research, I changed my mind and bought an LX-3 instead of an FL18. I've used it 3 times now -twice on LOTW. Last weekend at LOTW I fished next to a buddy in an Otter and he used an FL18. It was interesting to see that he was able to distingish 3 very distinct colors while I only saw yellow and red all day. While I can't be sure he caught anymore fish than me because of this "advantage"; I was, for the first time, a little disapointed with my LX-3. I never paid much attention to this concern before because this is the fist flasher I've ever owned and just figured I wasn't reading it properly or didn't have the settings quite right.
Do other people have problems distinguishing the orange on their LX-3's or is it just my old bad eyes? Is it possible there is something wrong with my unit? I re-read the owners manual and can't see that I'm doing anything wrong. I know on one particular page in the owners manual they show a picture of the unit displaying a nice clean orange band. When I saw that I just about laughed out loud. I've never seen anything like that!
there a bugger to clean but oh so worth it.
mom used to brown it rolled in flour and salt and pepper. put it in a roaster add onions, dry onion soup mix and bake it. depending on how bog or old it was pretty much depended on how long it needed to bake!!!!! usually a good 3-4 hours!!!!
Any recs on how to find a good general dentist in Stamford? I will be paying cash. Getting a referral from a trusted friend or family member would be nice but let's say this isn't an option.
Thanks
We get eggs from locals who have chickens. The difference in shelf life between washed and unwashed eggs was weird the first time I heard it. Months for unwashed; maybe a month for washed.
Farm fresh is a fair amount different than from the grocery store. Bigger yolks and thinner shells are two of the more noticeable differences. I had my first red yolk eggs a few weeks ago. Kinda freaked me out but it’s no big deal really.
