[Whopper Stopper]

Good late morning everyone

WW best of luck to Team Wally World I hope you find some willing adversaries.

Thanks OS, sometimes it seems like things don't change much from day to day Glad you like what I am sorting out to post

My trap wasn't bothered last night, and no coon videos to pass along, maybe tonight I made some mounts to better hold the camera. I think they will be pretty slick once I get the cameras dialed in.

Here are today's movies.....

[icefisher-45]

Good Afternoon Everyone, Tough night and morning. Looks like it’s going to be another hot one. Can’t wait for the cold.

Whopper Stopper, Your videos are great. Those Poults are growing up fast.

WallyWorld, Have fun. Can’t wait to see pictures.

Tom Turkey, Insurance is tough. No one seems to want to take responsibility.

Ice Wanderer, Did you get the kids off to camp ok? Hopefully you get the lawn mowed before it gets to hot.

I hope everyone has a great day and stays hydrated. God Bless

[IFF]

Good Evening ER's  Looks like I may need to break out Mr. Winchester, See a rat exit the bird feeder.

Got a thunderstorm heading in so need to get the cover on the boat.

[mr.clean]

Good evening not overly hot today but high dew point so still a muggy day. I had an afternoon thunder storm.
Eddie hope you and the crew did not get to much heat from your bosses on running a little over time with the jack hammers. May tomorrow's pour have no problems.
Whopper Stopper must have been scary with the tornado so close to your home. Thanks for posting story on young man's car. May your wife and you have better luck on the next musky trip.Enjoying the game camera videos best to you with the raccoons.
Wallyworld have a good trip to Lake Erie. I'm sure your brother will enjoy the walleyes.
Ice Wanderer glad you survived a day and overnight with Carson and Emma.
Hunts2long best to you and Lindsay tomorrow with the walleyes.
Icefisher-45 to bad you can get to see the pain specialist sooner then Sept.19TH . May you see some results from Friday's acupuncture session.
tom Turkey sorry to read about ex-wife's cousin . Must be some desperate people robbing a gun store while it is open. Unbelievable to me the car is still in same spot and state police do not seem to care about the problem.
IFF may you not have a rat problem. Glad you got out fishing.
OldSailor enjoy the nicer weather.
Dr.Speckler hope all is good with you.

I see this website is being flooded by a new member/members with links to other websites some of which are adult themed may Ice Shanty/Scott be able to resolve this problem.

A good night to all.
 Steve

[icefisher-45]

Good Morning Everyone, looks like it’s going to be another sleepless night. My poor wife was trying some new things she read about headaches and she got frustrated that they were just making the pain worse. She has been such a trooper thru all this.

IFF, Hopefully you don’t have a rat problem, Did you get much rain and hopefully you got your boat covered.

Mr Clean, I hope the thunderstorm cooled the air off a little.

I hope everyone has a good day and a safe one. Stay hydrated. Tight lines to those on the water.

[masoneddie]

Good Morning I-45, Morning Everyone,
  Time to flip the calendar again...Welcome to August!   
  Very comfortable 61* this am, high of 81 today...Les Humid is back for a visit.  As Steve mentioned, appears the site has been invaded by some goofball spamming porn sites all over the place. Best of luck to Scott and the mods cleaning up the mess. 

  I-45...sorry to read you’re having another bad night, hope the headache passed and you got some sleep. How about calling your Dr. and having him/her place a call to that pain specialist and get you in there immediately?
  Steve...no problems with our supervisor under the circumstances. It was a bigger area than we normally take out, high security area leading into the Capitol, and we weren’t allowed to set it up in advance...so we lost productive time hammering just getting everything ready.
  Bud...happy hunting!   
  Marv...excellent videos! Hope the raccoons payed a visit last evening!   
  H2...good luck with the fishing trip today! 
  Jeff... hope your day went well yesterday and the grandkids kids enjoyed camp!   
  Wally... hope you and Mr.WW had safe travels and best of luck on the fishing!   

  Another one of those running late mornings, lol, will catch up to you all later today....Cawfee’s on!
Have a great day all, be safe, best of luck to those fishing!
 

[ICE WANDERER]

             Good morning Eddie, ER's,
                        It's 63* and Les Humid here on my hill this 1st day of August. Where did July go.
                        Eddie.........I hope your pour goes well this morning, you're probably glad the terrazzo is over for a while.
                        I-45...........I've used cold compresses on my forehead to eliminate real bad hangovers, have you tried them.
                        Steve.........We had a thunderstorm roll through yesterday afternoon, the air got real cool during it but when it was over, the sun came out
             and the heat and humidity was back.
                        Bud............Are you trying to out do Baltimore with the rat problem. lol
                        Marv...........The video you put up are awesome, it's great to see how the poults are growing, and it will be interesting how the deer antlers will
             change. Keep up the good work sir.
                       Wally...........I hope you have a good and successful trip to Erie.
                       Not much going on today , no grandkids until tomorrow then we will have one.
                       I hope everyone has a good Thursday either at work or out fishing.

              IW

[Whopper Stopper]

Good morning Eddie, IW! Good morning everyone

64 heading for 80 later today. The dew points are slowly creeping up

Eddie almost time for you to grease and slide About 40 minutes before I can see the trap (too lazy to walk out there Lol)

IW enjoy the quiet day Thanks for the video comments.

WW hope the fishing is on fire

45 sure hated to read how long before you can get in for an appointment, hang in there.

I am heading to my spearing lake today with the s-i-l. I am going to try out my wife's kayak. There are a few things I wanted to check out before I ever took it fishing. My wife is excited I am taking it out, too bad weekends are so crazy on the lakes or she could come with.

Being they poisoned the musky lake I can forget about going there for a few days yet.

Hope you all have an excellent day Stay safe.

                  WS

[tomturkey]

51* to start the day with les around again. High guessed to be in the low 80's. No rain guessed until mid week next week.

There was a big surprise when the wife came home from therapy yesterday. The car is GONE. I must have stirred things up at the MSP post the day before. I went down and could see it had been picked up by a wrecker.

Marv You need to take musky fishing lessons from the 5 year old that the wife showed me on FB. He caught a 54 incher, of course with some help landing it from his dad. After a quick picture it was released. A musky that size would take you for a ride around the lake in a kayak. Hopefully you can cut down on the raccoons. It is surprising that you have the poults as they are nest destroyers.

IF45 It is sad that you can not get into the pain doctor sooner. Maybe you can be put on the list to fill a canceled appointment.

I woke up with a swollen jaw this morning from a bad tooth. Today is the annual meeting for the Senior Center that I have to attend. The VP has been a pain to the manager of the center. She is a demanding woman that said she would not run for the board again. I will hold her to her word if I can.

I still have not gotten any where with the bill from the hospital. The gal I talked to yesterday is supposedly sending me a break down of the charges. I talked to my pain docs nurse. She said that that hospital complex is a pain to deal with about charges, just like the gal I talked to from Blue Cross.

[Whopper Stopper]

Good afternoon everyone

I had a fun time on the water today, I will say the wife's kayak is a machine. The pedals allow you to easily go 3-4 miles per hour with 5 mph if you felt the need, all hands free. I ended up catching 2 smaller pike, and 4 bass with the biggest being 18". The s-i-l took the old Goose Egg, and she wasn't happy

When I checked the trap this morning I had a coon grunting and snorting in it. I guess it didn't like it in there, and it wanted me to know about it. I loaded it up and relocated it before heading to the lake.

2 cameras and I couldn't get the coon entering the trap. Maybe next time as there are at least 3 left. TT, I said something similar to my wife yesterday. With 4-5 coon around and at least 2 coyotes, how did we get any poults to watch?

I picked out a couple Videos, hope you enjoy them.

Good Evening Everyone, Wasn’t to bad today with the humidity. My wife ran into my neurologist at work and asked him what was going on with him passing me on to the pain clinic. He feels the pain is coming from the neck and he said that they can do injections in my neck which he can’t do. I told my wife not just going to have injections in my neck without talking to the surgeon first. He did say the healing in my neck could take up to a year. Plus the court appointed Doctor did manipulate it and the headaches got worse again. He’s going to try and get me in the pain clinic earlier. We’ll see what happens. Acupuncture in the morning.

Whopper Stopper, Sounds like you had a good day on the water. Do you catch and release the bass? Hopefully next time out your s.i.l does better on the water. Did the raccoon enjoy his ride? I forget what my father use to use to catch raccoons. I remember shrimp as being part of the equation. Your videos are great as usual.

Tom Turkey, That must have been a surprise that the car was gone. Did you get your tooth looked at and taken care of? Hopefully you were able to get your insurance taken care of.

Ice Wanderer, Hope you had a quiet day today. I’ve tried ice on the front of my head and on my neck. Nothing seems to work.

Mason Eddie, Hope you had a good day and didn’t irritate to many Government officials this morning.

I hope everyone had a good day and have a good night. God Bless

Good evening 45

Prayers sent that they will get you in way sooner than expected

When fishing we throw everything back in the summer, strictly fishing for fun.

The raccoons sure like sardines. Tonight's menu has smoked oysters in olive oil

The coon was happy as a lark as we made our way down the road. The next customer will ride in the truck rather than the old Buick. The sardines seemed to give it gas

[wallyworld]

Evening all,

Put 15 eyes, 7 sheepshead, 5 perch and 1 smb in the boat today 😁 Eyes were from 17” to 27” hope we can do as well again tomorrow!!!

Have a good night. Stay safe.

[IFF]

Marv looks like the same size trap I have, can you imagine getting 4 in it all at once ? LOL

WW wtg on the eyes

[mr.clean]

Good evening, pleasant day slightly lower humidity. I went for a haircut today a a new barbershop a bit of a drive but nice shop. Modern looking inside with new model chairs by chance I got the shop owner as my barber told him I was used to the old style chairs with nickel or chrome plating on the arm rests and big foot rest. Told me he just removed last chair he had of that style . While the shop is modern looking owner must have learned the profession under an older barber after cutting my hair he hot lather shaved the back of my neck then finished the cut off with hot towel on my face while receiving brief face/head massage.This shop is one of the few in my area that gives wet shaves part of the reason i went there for a haircut sometime in the Fall will treat myself to a shave something I always wanted to try.
Eddie I forget about your having to work around security at capital building creates it's own set of challenges to complete jobs.
Ice Wanderer thunderstorm that passed through yesterday afternoon had same result as one in your section of NY. Have fun baby sitting tomorrow.
Whopper Stopper taking a guess that when you replace your kayak it will be with same model as your wife's. Congratulations on the fish may your SIL get in on the action next trip. Hope the rest of the raccoons are as easy to trap.
Tom Turkey good to read the car has finally been moved to bad it took two complaints to state police to get that result. May the bad tooth not cause to many problems. How was the Senior Center meeting. May you get the billing charges fixed without to much stress.
Wallyworld congratulations to the two of you on a great day of fishing. May Friday's trip have similar results.
Icefisher-45 wish your headaches would end so you got a better quality of life. I would ask many questions at initial visit with pain specialist. Injections may stop the pain but mask what is causing it to occur.

Take care converse with all of you tomorrow.

[ICE WANDERER]

                Good morning ER's,
                         It's 59* and clear here on my hill, another nice day is on the forecast.
                         Marv........May you have great success in the coon catching and relocation, will you take them to the same spot? I bet you'll have a
                new kayak soon.
                         I-45........I hope you can get in to the pain clinic sooner than first scheduled.
                         Steve......There are no old time barbershops up this way anymore, most are unisex hair places.
                         Eddie......You probably had an early start this morning, I hope you can get your fishing time in this weekend.
                         Wally......What a great day on Erie you had, I hope the rest of your trip gets better each day.
                         It should be somewhat of a quiet day with only one grandchild for the afternoon.
                         I hope everyone has a good Friday and a good weekend ahead.

                IW

[icefisher-45]

Good Morning Everyone, 54* this morning. They are saying less humidity today. Have acupuncture this morning.

Ice Wanderer, Sounds like a quiet day with only one grandkids today.

Mr Clean, Unfortunately we don’t have any old time barbershops around here.

IFF, That is a lot of raccoons in 1 cage. Hopefully your getting out fishing soon.

WallyWorld, Congratulations on a great day on the water. Good luck today.

Whopper Stopper, That could make for a long ride with a little passenger with Sardine gas. Hope you got another one today.

I hope everyone has a good day and a safe one. Tight lines to those on the water. God Bless

[Whopper Stopper]

Good Morning everyone!

WW sent a couple of pictures  from their fishing trip. Wow! Boom Goes The Dynamite

[hunts2long]

A nice cool 53 this morning.

WW, great day on the water, keep it up.

Lindsay and I got 5 walleyes yesterday. All were keepers. She kept the FOUR she got. I did get 2 rock bass...lol. We had fun. She learned well from someone. We have a quick trip to Rochester today.

Hope everyone has a good day...h2l

[Whopper Stopper]

Good afternoon everyone

Just got back from a WI musky lake. The s-i-l  called this morning at 4:30 wondering if I wanted to try a lake over there so heck yes. I think her and my wife are trying to get me away from projects around the homestead so I figured why not. We fished for 7 hours and didn't see a thing. The s-i-l switched to bass and found a couple of those to break the monotony. We talked to a few guys that were loading before us and they said the lake had been pretty quiet.

Eddie are you going to make it out this weekend? Good luck if you do Sir!

IW I will bring all the coon to the same place. It's a decent wildlife area with a creek and some hardwoods.

WW hope today was even better than yesterday

mr.clean I don't think I will be getting a new kayak anytime soon. As nice as my wife's kayak is, the cost of the Old Town is a little stiff for me. I can buy a lot of plumbers putty and liquid nails for the price of one.

hunts2long good going on the fishing, hope your trip to Rochester went well.

A couple weeks ago I made the comment to my wife that I shouldn't have trapped all those moles last year. I think I caught like 26 and other than one when the snow melted there hasn't been a hint of one. Wednesday she came in the house all excited because she had found three tunnels along the edge of the yard. So we went out to the shed and I got my bucket of Victor Out O'Sight mole traps and she helped me set two on each tunnel.  This morning we went out with the flash light and I had two of the ugly buggers.

       


The raccoon were Leary this morning and my plan of two in two days was foiled 

Hope you all have an excellent evening   Stay safe.

Good Evening Everyone, wasn’t to bad of a day out, Not to humid. Acupuncture went well. She only put needles on one side of my Body today. She says she’s trying to help put everything back in alignment. Head is still pounding. She says it takes time.

Whopper Stopper, Your wife and S-I- L is right. You need to get out on the water more. Did you take your wife’s Kayak today? Amazing how much things cost these days. Hopefully you can get a couple of raccoons tonight. Sounds like a perfect place to release them.

Hunts2long, Hope you had a safe trip to Rochester.

WallyWorld, Looks like a great day on the water.

I hope everyone has a great night and a relaxing night. God Bless

[ICE WANDERER]

                  Good morning ER's,
                          It's 64* and clear on my hill, what a nice day yesterday was.
                          I-45..........I hope the Acupuncturist is right about taking time, did you ask her if she has treated cases like yours and end up with good results?
                          Marv.........I agree with Jo and Jen you need to fish more a work less. Great video again, you were so close to getting a 2nd coon trapped
                          H2L..........I hope your trip to Rochester was trouble free.
                          Wally........Those are nice looking fish, keep up the good work.
                          Well yesterday we didn't get my granddaughter after all so I took my wife to lunch at a restaurant on Glen Lake, The Docksider, what a beautiful day
                 to dine by the water.
                          Eddie........I hope you can get some fishing time in today.


                          This morning I'm going to #2 sons to pick up a lawn tractor that his father in law gave him and he gave to me. I'm going to try it out to see if I can use
                 it around here. My lawn is cut up with a hill in the front and in the back it is two tier, a retaining wall.
                          I hope everyone has a good Saturday either at work or out fishing.

                IW

[masoneddie]

Good Morning Jeff, Morning Everyone,
  Cloudy and 65*, high of 78 with a good chance of T-storm’s late morning/afternoon.

  Jeff...thanks for sharing the pictures, sure was a beautiful day to spend outside....especially at the waters edge!  Good luck with the tractor, hope it works out well for you! 
  I-45...have you noticed any type of improvement with the acupuncture at all? Hope you’re feeling a little better today Sir!   
  Marv...thanks for sharing the pictures of Wally’ trip and the videos, all excellent! Nice job on the moles to boot!  
Glad you have been getting back out on the water, agree with the ladies as well...more fishing less work!   
  H2... hope you had safe travels to and from Rochester yesterday, sounds like you and Lindsay had a real nice outing as well, great job!   
  Wally...congratulation s to you and Mr.WW sticking all those fish, beautiful pictures! Hope the remainder of the trip went just as well, will looking forward to your report!   
 
  Had an early start yesterday and just fell short on time to post. The recent cool /comfortable sleeping temps at night seem to make it a tad more difficult to get out of bed early, lol.
  Planning on an evening trip tonight at the local lake if the rains hold off. Still waiting to hear from one of my sons to see if he will join me.
 Harvested some vegetables from the garden the last few days....broccoli, beans, onions, cucumbers, a few peppers and tomatoes. Had to pull out a few tomatoes that blight put the whammy on, but other than that, everything else is looking pretty good.
  Some chores to catch up on before the rain moves in...Cawfee’s on!
Have a great day all, be safe, best of luck to those fishing!
 
 

[hunts2long]

Good Morning. 61* and a few rain drops, not going to last.
Trip went well, took care of some business,  wife went to Wegmans, had lunch with s-I-l and her daughter and were home in less than 10 hours.
Wife wants to set up the garage sale again this weekend.
IW, hope the mower works out for you. Yes it was indeed a good day for lunch on the deck.
WW, looking foward to your fishing reports.
WS, keep those videos coming. How far away are you taking the raccoons when you get one?
Eddie, enjoy a couple of days out of the city.
Ice-45 hope you are feeling better.
Everyone have a good day....h2l

[wallyworld]

Morning all,

Wow to say yesterday was a good day on the water is an understatement at best.......we landed 35 eyes from 16" - 26"  and a 24 1/2" steelhead    lots of doubles and even a triple once, crazy action  we didn't get home until around 10 last night and kind of just fell into bed, fishing is VERY tiring    lots to catch up on today 








brought a few home for my brother to enjoy 


Have a good day whatever your plans. Stay safe.

[hunts2long]

Wow, a great trip, great pictures and yesterday had to be a great day to be on the water, weather wise....H2L

[icefisher-45]

Good Morning Everyone, 66* this morning, Very cloudy this morning. The acupuncturist apparently hasn’t treated anyone with such bad headaches. Yesterday was the third round. Not giving up hope that it will work. My wife is home today. She doesn’t have much planned.

WallyWorld, That was a incredible trip. Hope you get some rest.

Hunts2long, Glad your trip was uneventful and your wife had a good day. Do you have a lot of setting up to do for the yard sale?

Mason Eddie, Nothing better then fresh veggies that you grew yourself. Hope you have a good Evening on the water and your son is able to go with you.

Ice Wanderer, Yesterday was a beautiful day to have lunch on the water. Thank you for sharing those pictures. Hope the mower works for you.

[icefisher-45]

I hit the post button to soon  , I hope everyone has a great day and a safe one. Tight lines to those on the water. God Bless

Good Morning H2, Wally, I-45,

  Wow Wally, what an amazing day and trip for you and Mr.WW, congratulations!! Beautiful pictures!! Some people here on the site may not like the word, but I’ll say it...that trip was  “EPIC!! “     
  I-45...hang in there and keep that positive attitude! Believe we all can’t wait to hear the tables turning for you! Best wishes sent your way on the next round of treatment.   
  H2...glad you had a good safe trip...   It started raining here right after I posted, now the sun is out again.   
 
 

[Whopper Stopper]

Good morning everyone

Humid sticky day today

IW the "The Docksider" looks like a dandy spot, thanks for sharing the pictures

WW What a fishing trip  . Like Eddie said "EPIC" Thanks for taking all of us along.

Eddie it has to be a great feeling snatching the first few things out of the garden. I enjoyed all your post talking about the journey thus far, but Harvest tops all Good luck if you make it out tonight

hunts2long I will keep posting videos if the critters keep coming. The spot I drop the coon is 5 miles from my house. I might as well fess this too, at the 6 mile mark there is a gas station that offers an excellent chocolate chip muffin for $1. It kind of makes it a Win, Win

We are taking a ride to the shack in in about an hour. There has been a few storms up that way so we want to check things out. Also on the way back we are stopping in to visit an old friend that is slipping health wise. He had open heart surgery about 5 years ago and he just never got back to his old self.

Well, the coon won again last night Tonight I am back to sardines but the new approach will be to chum them at the door. As expected I am out of moles again, I have been watching on my walks to see if any yards have problems, I would ask if they minded my trapping them.

Hope you all have an excellent days Stay safe.

                                WS

I have a couple others I will add later today as YouTube isn't behaving. When done there will be 3 total
