My addiction is under control... I have distractions, like turkey hunting, open-water fishing, deer hunting, archery, fly fishing, Scouting, EMS, Fire Dept, Bowhunter Instructor, gardening and getting ready for the next ice season. If these distractions fail, I can fall into deep denial. To think of it, I'm not addicted at all...

ADDICTION

Some other addictions can be activities that people find entertaining, or in some way pleasurable or fun, can become an addiction.  Many times without ever noticing what's happening, the addictive action or activity has taken priority over many other aspects of the person's life. Addicts routinely adopt other addictions when sources of pleasure or fun are not available at any given time.  :o ;) :P

Here's one from today....

When you're loading up your new car-topper boat, being eaten by black flies, almost dumping the thing on your head....and you call a fishing buddy to say "ice fishing is so much easier....how long till December????"

Yep, I looked really cool driving the thing home on top of the Kiapet....but I look cooler with a portable in the back.
Thinkin 'bout cusk on the grill......

you know your addicted when your at the local river fly fishing with size 22 midges, talking to your fishing buddy saying; "u fix ur tip ups and are u planning to buy that fenwick elite tech ice rod, i heard they are good?" all of a sudden the entire river goes quiet, and u get the thousand mile glare from the rest of the fly fisherman while ur buddy just sighs.
Fishing is a sport in which thinking is involved it is the covenant between nature and man, mother and son. Through fishing only can we recreate the link that has been tarnished throughout the existence of the modern era of mankind. Fishing is the answer yet people ignore it and consider it a "stupid" thing to do. What do these people do instead? They stare in front of color changing boxes. Is that life? My life is fishin

I drove over to Maine to visit Joe dirt and Ninjaboss and before I left, I found my bait puck and Hemostats that I left in their shack in March. After I gave him Grief for 2 days, Joe had brackets installed and his New auger hanging up on the wall, mission accomplished !!

What did he use for brackets?

I was thinking about hanging my auger up IN the shack. Beats leaving it out on the ice or in the truck...maybe it will start easier when its warm????

He used the red rubber coated screw in brackets that you use to hang bikes from garage ceiling joists. He screwed them into his Garage wall studs instead. The 16" on center layout of the wall studs lines up the hooks with the openings of the auger handles perfectly ! :thumbsup:

And taking it in and out from warm to cold is a great way to get condensation of moisture in everything.... ::)
