Weather Rant!
« on: Jan 27, 2012, 05:59 AM »
Got up early to give it a try this morning and the wind is 30MPH with gust to 44MPH. Shows snow on the weather map in the Black Hills. I must be getting old cause I'm just going back to bed.
In the memory of "Team Lighting" Fish ON!
No one ever says,"Man that fish tastes small.
Thank you Lord for thinkin bout me. I'm alive and doin fine!!!!!!

I need new blades anyway. Heading to RC tomorow, if they don't have swedish blades I'll be ticked. Guy there didn't seem overly confident... May have to order direct from Strikemaster and w-a-i-t for the delivery...  sigh...

Roosters is a good idea. I'll swing by there first since I'd like to see some "real" minnows anyway lol

IT WAS THE RIGHT DECISION...I made a run to the mail box @ two and made a pass thru Pine Haven & thw West end.   The west end was ground blizzrd with white out across the entire bay.... Mule Creek was much the same.  Everyone was smart & stayed home today...didnt see a single person out today.

Ya, that's what the weather man said but there was hardly a light breeze all weekend on Boysen. Couldn't have asked for nicer weather....even got a tan... ;D
