Gotta keep it going "06"
« on: Apr 20, 2006, 08:03 AM »
As all you die hard's remember, this was going last year so we may as well do it again this year. It is just a thread that mean's absolutly nothing but gives us all a spot to post in the summer. Feel free to post anything about nothing ???. My weather report for today is sunny and hot in this part of the world with no ice in the near future :'(. Golf game is good though.

I hope and pray that this coming ice season is better then the one that just passed.
I made it out less then a dozen times this past year, anything over that would be a improvement.

I'm with you Jim ;D ;D

I heard the burn ban around here was lifted, lots to burn this weekend in the rain..............

Rumors of a new Marcum flasher/camera combo unit persist............... ..you heard it here first...... ;D ;D ;D

Preacherman and I caught 9 crappies yesterday that were 11-1/2" to 14-1/4" in
the same spot we caught them thru the ice. We used 1/4 oz red ball jig head with
a 2" white twister tail. Also caught a few nice pickerel. Only 8+ months until hard
water season.

Hey, everybody!  Yeah, sucky ice fishing season here in southeast Michigan.  Here's hoping next season is a major improvement.  I've got a new Vex just waiting to go on it's maiden voyage!  I'll be checking in often this spring-summer-fall as I did last year.  Tight lines to all.

HAPPY FRIDAY ;D ;D ;D ;D

On a positive note, 55mph really does save gas on my hour commute to work ;D
The negative side is that I've become a traffic hazzard :( :(

Finally hit the golf course yesterday and I think I will stick to fishing.  It was an ugly site for the first time this year.  Now baseball coaching will take up my time until the middle of July.  :-\
Bring on the ice!!!!!!!  <br />

Got about 6 hrs on the new outboards and new boat. Got the camper and small boat out of storage today. The down side is that it is also time to get out the lawnmower,weed eater and tiller. Rats!!!  :( The high point is that I'm going fishing tomorrow. ;D

Jim, frost warning?? Really??  Maybe I'll turn on the weather chanell............... and fire up the auger ;D ;D ;D

Just wondering............. am I the only one who thinks it's easier to fire up the auger for five min, once a week all summer than to properly winterize it??

 Byron keep that Auger running between you and skip having a power auger did not have to "spud" many holes this year therefor less exercise = more weight. Now it get even harder to stay under 200lbs its the season for massive weight gains due to the dreaded "B and B syndrom" BOAT AND BEER" FRED
