fishing in the shanty realizing a few hours later it's on the ground.

I, kind of remember, fishing in open water. Nice fish fisheraug4life !

nice fish - that must have been a blast in a kayak.

In the summer I mostly golf and do some open water fishing, but the majority of the time on the water is spent mapping a lake into my gps for ice fishing (drop off, weed lines etc..)

In the fall I hunt - preferably with a bow.

I just started playing Disc golf with Rl. I must say what a freaking blast that sport is . The people are quit friendly too much like most that one would meet on the ice .
Thanks RL for introducing me to it.

Glad that you enjoy it. It is a nice alternative to other sports, can be done rather quickly as oppossed to consuming your entire day, and little adjustments in technique can yield huge dividends. Quite rewarding. It is also exciting to play new courses, and with over 80 in the State we have no shortage.
Not to mention you have picked up the sport in light speed!

Well, I was working and playing semi-pro football till I got my ACL and MCL torn in my left knee. So now I'm not working nor playing football, so I get to go fishing a lot more now.

I do the multitude of summer sports to pass time, open water fish, golf, bowl, basketball, baseball, and volleyball

Mainedog · « **Reply #11 on:** Jun 21, 2007, 05:31 PM »

paint, fix the porch, build a cabinet for the camp, cut the grass, trim the hedges, paint, and then paint some more!

P.S. Amazing fishes Stephan! How long did they pull you around in your kayaks?

I was on the sleigh ride for about 10 minutes before she came to the side of the boat. and even then she did not want to be nice. There is nothing dry about kayak fishing for these pigs!

summertime is for overtime!
it's amazing how many fools would rather have time off in the summer than in the winter!

flintlokusa · « **Reply #14 on:** Jun 23, 2007, 10:49 AM »

Heading out to the garage to work on my portable in about 10 minutes . When I get that done the fun starts. I just picked up a fiberglass camper called a Burro, going to convert into my Shanty

If I can ever figure out how to add pics , I will add a couple .

saranacjoe · « **Reply #15 on:** Jun 24, 2007, 09:35 AM »

Mainedog · « **Reply #18 on:** Jun 25, 2007, 08:50 PM »

Check out my earlier post...build a cabinet for the camp.
Also, look carefully in the background...you might see some ice fishing related stuff.

thats a nice piece or work, I have to build something similar in a few weeks! anything for the wife :-)

Mainedog · « **Reply #21 on:** Jun 27, 2007, 04:51 PM »

Thanks for the compliment, but notice it's not a close up!
I don't have the right tools or the place to work, but I managed.
We could have just bought something, but it wouldn't have been
the right dimensions, plus, it will match the camp interior walls.

I has earned me some major brownie points with the wife though.
She didn't even question my recent impluse purchase of an Old Town
Pack canoe.

mainedukblaster · « **Reply #22 on:** Jun 28, 2007, 09:23 AM »

see thats how I get the new tools.. I say "honey if you want me to build the cabinet with the fancy edging you want I need to get a new router and a bit and stuff so......"

Mainedog · « **Reply #23 on:** Jun 28, 2007, 12:09 PM »

I picked up a new reciprocating saw last project myself....

Do a new job, get a new tool.

i fish open water almost every day in the summer and work my a$$ off to get money for icefishing gear and sled gas money. I'm also building a smaller shack this summer so i will have 2 shacks. tomorrow is gonna suck +38 Celsius for the high tomorrow and I'm stuck at home nowhere near any water bodies

Stockin' up on walleye fillets, startin' to think about early season goosin', drinkin' a few beers, shootin' some clays, this retired life is tough.
