Tuesday was beautiful. The high temp was 75f. In anticipation, I took the day off. After my 15 year old got on the bus, I headed 5 minutes north to my "home lake" Nimisila. Fished from 8 am to 10 am. Nothing. Made my way back to the ramp. Loaded the tinny back up and headed home for breakfast. Stella "punkin girl" wasn't happy that I'd left without her, but I reassured her that she would be with me when I go back. The winds were out of the SW so we stayed on the north side of the lake. It was fairly calm when we went out, but the winds would pick up after an hour or so. I anchored in a sheltered little bay and rigged Stella's beginner spinning combo with a hot pink (she HAD to have it) bobber and a small minnow. I'd cast for her, but you know 3 year olds, she'd have it reeled back in within 3 minutes. While tying on a glass rap that my brother got me for Christmas, and after Stella got tired of messing around with her fishing pole, her little bobber disappeared. I said "Stella! Reel it in you have a fish! " she says "NO! Fish are yucky!!" So I did the honors. I thought for sure the excitement of her first ever fish would compel her to fish more...... Nope She is definitely more like her mother. My turn. That little glass rap was the ticket. I managed 2 crappies just like Stellas. Then I caught a nice bass. I let Stella try her hand at photography, and the results are obvious. What a great day! Thanks for reading Mike and Stella

I was just having fun. Never ment to offend. Sorry. I'm like 300 miles from there soooooo

OMG.... LOL!!! Dude is RIPPED! Under that super stylish sweatshirt, is the body of ATLAS!!! He's got no problem one handing that gator...... Sad thing is, there are people who would believe that pic is real. And they are the pic's target demographic.......

Leave them lying on the floor of yer boat and they are MINE!!! I seriously can see the price on the pliers. Anyone who has worked with titanium would also vouch (maybe....?) It is one of the most amazing materials ever created. But that line welder has to be one of the stupidest things I've ever seen........
