Oil didn`t come from from the cavemen cooking dinosaur bacon? There is is lot of oil there! The world can be flat, I don`t care! As long as wimmins aren`t!

Kemper no heat, discussion. During the Middle ages people drank more alcohol in Europe than water, they had no concept of bacteria or viruses, but knew you didn`t get sick as often if you drank alcohol. No sanitary systems so the water was polluted. We had it here on Lake Erie last century, it has improved because people became aware of the problem, LOL the fish could have told them, what me swim in that toliet? It took years of awareness and an attempt to do something about it to bring Lake Erie back, the fishing there is the best it has been in my life time. Yes the earth is big, but man has thrown off the balance, forests gone, wetlands gone, industrial and residential pollution. Yes there is a natural cycle to the weather, but almost every creditable scientist will tell you man is the cause of this deal. The agent in the Matrix, man is like a virus. We have brains but need to use them more often!

Not much experiance with that stuff but I bought some that is on a quill like a feather that is probably that long. The quill might make tying to the hook easier? Got mine at a local tackle shop, but if they had it others should, maybe Stamina or Netcraft or Barlows? A fly fishing shop? I can check my catalogs if there is an interest.

Nice Ric, enjoyed your reports!

Well if the united nations were really united they would be working harder on the problem, maybe they will be content to let us all go the way of the dinosaur as long as they can make a buck now? Too much influence by economics and not enough thought to survival, more than enough people on earth for some to be disposable. http://www.mapleridgewind.com/turbine.htm http://www.mapleridgewind.com/Events.htm built coal and gas fired power plants? atomics? for ? we can`t seem to clean up the mess we have now!

Good move turning around, some days just aren`t worth the effort!

Don`t waste time trying to catch your own!

LOL Roy! The ads? http://www.oldmilwaukee.com/

Nice fat pike! Dang them condos look better than some of the houses down here!

Do we get the subscriptions the same place we find the jumla`s?

Terry do they have TSC farm stores near you? Grade 8 bolts are a lot stronger than a grade 2 or 5, a grade 8 in that thing, if it didn`t already have one might not break when you need it most. Other places like a nut and bolt(fastner suppy) will have them too.

LOL Terry, my neighbor and former partner for most of my bass tournies also fishes crappie tournies, I was always kind of amazed at the distances and things he went thru to fish them.

Bike? 2 guys one bike? I think I`m in love? No just frozen! Just kidding! Nice report, except for the snow and ice!

:worthy:

LOL PikeHunter, we want your water, but don`t want to have to bring chainsaws to cut it!

A strong south west wind actually pushes the water out of some of the bays off Lake Erie here, dropping water level affects the fishes bite. East wind usually sucks, means something bad with the weather is happening. Most of the time I just had to deal with it like everyone else. Mild stable weather is a plus!

LOL Wayne, momma don`t let me out on days like this, as slow as I move I could freeze walking to the car. I don`t feel my feet well any way, they might freeze and I might not know. Both my kids schools called today and said schools will be closed Monday due to the weather conditions, doesn`t look good for Tuesday either. Moe if you make the run to warm weather(glen`s) stop and warm up here on the way, wood burners going! LOL Stay warm watch your pets, bad days for them to be out too!

Glad to hear Chuck is doing well enough to get out!

LOL Lew, ya trucks used to suck much more than today. LOL ours always had roofs!, getting a heater or defroster that would keep that big windshield clear seemed to be a real problem for the engineers.

After last year mine is to fish this year, I am in a holding pattern. Fish, swim or drown I will do something!

Ya Lew! I can`t imagine trying to fight a fire in weather like this, I have seen some pictures though. It was cold on the truck docks, but at least dry! LOL Dan, one of the car dealerships nearby always advertises as in Tropical Medina because it`s south of Cleveland, not far enough south today! Warm side of town?

LOL Tom, yes banana belt! Considering I could probably make it down to visit with Glenn in less time than getting to you. Well a normal person could, I need my naps. My first GMC Safari van had the block heater on it, nice, heat as soon as you start it up.

Winter took it`s time giving us serious cold, 0 f this morning with a windshield of 22 below. The Penn State groundhog and Buckeye Chuck didn`t see their shadows so an early spring. Buddies bass fished until January 6th, a first.

Thanks Glen!

Hot water will work if the lock is frozen, but it becomes cold water then frozen water. Alcohol probably a better bet. You can also heat the key with a torch, wear gloves, the heat from the key will transfer to the locks tumblers and unfreeze them.
