Hey ... I have an idea for an award for Topher... how 'bout a 'I FINALLY SLIPPED ONE PAST THE GOALIE' award??

Happy Father's Day to everyone who's a dad! This includes Topher who recently Knocked Me Up!! That's right, we are expecting! His ice fishing in February might get interrupted a bit!

wow congrats.....

.....i take it feb is the target date...... have ya been kicking around names...may i suggest hole hawg if its a young lad entering the shack.....

....topher....may i remind you that the highland / sand bar tourney is around feb 14.....

...no pressure of course...

congrats you two! another fishing partner!

i'll get going on that hole hawg.

topher7694 · « **Reply #512 on:** Jun 20, 2009, 07:28 PM »

thanks guys !! i think if its a boy, I might have to nickname him Stitch..

been going through all my fishing gear to try to come up with a name ( hence Berkley the pup's name) she says NO Way Jose.....

I'm sure that February will be an ok month, as the child will be born Cesarian instead of natural.....and they only perform them on Tuesdays and Thursdays.......

Thanks guys! Holehawg... it is a great name... but I've heard it's bad luck to name a baby after some one who's still living... I wouldn't want to have to knock you off to use it

We do have about 15 or 20 names picked out but we've got a lot to time to argue about that

Boy or girl it'll be a fisher....person?

pooley · « **Reply #514 on:** Jun 21, 2009, 07:00 AM »

how about something like flag, or tip-up? maybe even castmaster!

holehawg · « **Reply #515 on:** Jun 21, 2009, 09:16 AM »

i wanted to call joey jr. " drunken binge " but blondzilla made the face on my suggestions....

....

TophersFishinBuddy · « **Reply #516 on:** Jun 21, 2009, 10:32 AM »

Personally I was thinking an "ice cream" names... Chunky Monkey...Cherries Garcia... Chubby Hubby

I haven't warmed Topher to the idea yet, but I'm working on it.... He said he's half hopin' it comes out looking Oriental so he can name it Shimano.

topher7694 · « **Reply #517 on:** Jun 21, 2009, 10:36 AM »

I'm thinking Harry Tidge...its a good solid name.. (Heritage)

pooley · « **Reply #518 on:** Jun 21, 2009, 12:22 PM »

i guess 'ugly stik' won't fly. $:-\$

holehawg · « **Reply #519 on:** Jun 21, 2009, 05:54 PM »

i'm still pulling for hole hawg...

...or my 2nd frav. lure" lazy ike "......my youngest daughter almost passed out when i asked her to name grandson # 4 "ambrose bushrod eschenburg..." i wanted all 4 grandsons named for civil war generals but i was out voted.....

kids today have nooo history in their blood...

pooley · « **Reply #520 on:** Jun 21, 2009, 09:11 PM »

well, i'm reeally screwed then!!!!!!!

topher7694 · « **Reply #521 on:** Jun 21, 2009, 10:06 PM »

Well, I think we are going to keep to simple names for now, unless something wild and crazy jumps into the picture later on.....

More importantly, next weekend we will be fishing Lake Huntington on either Saturday or Sunday, probably the latter and hopefully before the locals get up and get out the boats and jetskis for their summer activities...if there are any areas that you guys want me to specifically hit, let me know.....

And also, is there any more info or details as to the happenings on July 4th weekend for the possible Delaware trip....inquiring minds would like to know...

And last but not least, Happy Father's Day to all the Fathers out there !!!

pooley · « **Reply #522 on:** Jun 22, 2009, 08:15 AM »

try where we were icefishing. also, try drifting/real slow trolling a pink &white/chartruce roadrunner. we do well on the crappies on them.

holehawg · « **Reply #523 on:** Jun 22, 2009, 12:17 PM »

lots of guys troll there for trout ...deep....remember how we fished by the knocked over gazebo.....theres ledges there...just watch out for that stupid water ski slalom thingeys....

also trolling in front of the beer distributor is another hot spot....not sure yet on delaware float trip for 4th....may have to work that weekend due to being behind thanks to all this rain....

timster · « **Reply #524 on:** Jun 23, 2009, 08:08 AM »

Topher and TFB
Congrats

Good luck on a name. The choice's so far are great!!
You could name him Polar tip up??

And a Happy Fathers Day to all a little late we was a way..

topher7694 · « **Reply #525 on:** Jun 23, 2009, 11:24 AM »

Thanks Timster......I'm hoping this great weather holds out for a few more days.....Huntington needs a visit from the topher fishing club

hoping also that the thumb is healed enough for a little flipping and pitching

topher7694 · « **Reply #535 on:** Jun 24, 2009, 10:23 PM »

I'll keep an eye out for 5-6" chubs, how about maybe up to 10" chubs if available???my local bait guy usually has them...they aren't cheap but the ones I saw he had last trip were real doosies

holehawg · « **Reply #536 on:** Jun 24, 2009, 10:49 PM »

could work... if ya ever fished with bunkers for bait ya know what i mean....

...this could be fun...

topher7694 · « **Reply #537 on:** Jun 25, 2009, 05:59 AM »

Might just have to upsize a few things for a trip like that..heaviest line I have on a rod now not counting the 30 lb braid on my flipping stick is only 8 lb.....not quite sure that would be enough

holehawg · « **Reply #538 on:** Jun 25, 2009, 07:39 AM »

the fellow i told ya about caught them by accident on 8lb test.....

i'm gonna dig out my ugly stick for this trip...

topher7694 · « **Reply #539 on:** Jun 25, 2009, 11:15 AM »
