  1. Nice one Barry, love the old photos.
  2. I was real heavy into musky fishing for around 45 years and for the most part kept it old school but that was just my preference. I always did well and would often boat 75 to 100 fish a year with 2001 being my best year with 115 fish in the boat. I never even had a FF until 1999 and then I put a GPS at the helm to watch for the depths I wanted and to track my drifts and keep track of sunrise/sunsets. I had a small 5" FF at the helm and another at the bow and that was it but they were more for finding weeds than anything else. Never used them for looking for fish. The vast majority of my fishing was casting to reeds or weeds and rock piles and some trolling when I needed a break from tossing big baits. One of my favorite methods was night fishing in total darkness with no electronics at all. Just a headlamp to get my bearings once in awhile then back to the darkness and the light again to release the fish. To me, that was totally pitting myself against the fish with no outside help. To me that's what fishing is all about, trying to think like a fish and figure where they are and what they want to eat. I've got nothing against the guy that has a boat load of TV screens that he stares at all day and more power to him but to my mind that's not fishing when you use electronics to do all your thinking, but again, it's just my preference.
  3. Good to have you back Steve.
  4. We just got a Ninja and did a roast beef last night and it turned out excellent. We went with the dual zone that has a large cooking section or can divided into 2 sections to cook 2 different items at once. So far we're really happy with it.
  5. Looks like they're gonna get hammered again north of you Pete.
  6. I'm at Burleigh Falls and we've basically only had one real snowfall this winter. About a month back we had 8-9 inches followed by another 3 the next day and other than a few light snowfalls that's been it. Looks like we may get some more on Thursday but who knows. As for temperatures we've had exactly ONE night where it went below zero Fahrenheit and that's really unusual. My snow blower has been sitting in the shed collecting dust most of the time.
  7. I still get the Malware warning pretty well daily but only on OFC but all my scans say I have no issues so who knows what's happening.
  8. I have zero interest in ice fishing so only saw the 1st minute or so but thought some here may want to see it. Whether it's fake, staged or whatever I have no idea.
  9. Came across this video and thought you ice fishing guys may like it.
  10. Hard to believe Mike, but I don't even have any interest in riding in a boat anymore.
  11. I packed in the fishing a few years back and sold everything Mike, I'm now a spectator rather than a participant 😁
  12. Woulda been fun Bill, but I spose it's too late now LOL
  13. Hey Mike, good to hear from you Bud, it's been a long time. Your a fun guy to fish with and you for sure passed a lot of knowledge on to others too. We had some good times on the water, put some nice fish in the boat, had a lot of laughs and even scarfed down some incredible Philly cheese steaks LOL
