If you decide as you go thru Virginia Take a day and Fish the Potomac River you will not be disappointed. I have fished further South and have had a good time fishing for Bass but I find that I get side tracked for Crappie and if Saltwater is near,forget it I am hitting the inshore fishing. I went down to Florida in March and caught a few nice bass nd then it was all Saltwater . I am lucky that an accidental fish was released called the snakehead in the Potomac it has proven to not do the damage forecasted and has added a great sport fish that taste excellent. I hope they do not get out of the area and with the saltwater influence it has the possibility to contain them if people do not get stupid. I will say the reason I fish around is to target the different species and the glorious Great White North has a huge place in my heart both for the people and the outdoors that you all have and thankfully share.

I think anyone breaking the law should face punishment. If you see it and you do not report it then you are as guilty as they are for turning a blind eye. I personally disagree on the state of bass fishing in the U.S. I have fished for both and honestly don't bass fish up North because I can do that down here. I however do not have musky or pike due to the warm weather so they are what I target. I think that up North needs the added protection due to the short growing season and the higher mortality as water levels fluctuate. Art

When I am up North where the blood sucking creatures are way more active than down here. (meaning I am not used to feeding them). I use a bug suit as needed and 100 % deet on my hat and cuffs to keep them at bay. I also wear latex gloves on my hands when they are exposed to keep them from biting. One of the good things about the little buggers is when you are out fishing and you have a dozen or so dragonflies on the carpet deck on the boat and they attack the incoming horseflies. Lots of fun watching that when the bite slows down. Art

Looking good Brian Art

Someones going to grow a tail if they keep using that thing...lol Art

that brings back an old saying that I have heard "never complain about what you have because there is always someone who has it worse." While I live 10 minutes out of town on 20 acres we still have cable internet and t.v. as well as LTE cell reception. With all of the other things in life that are or will kill me the 5G is very low on my list. Some things that occur are just bigger than you can change and to waste time and breath are just that, a waste. I found that choosing my battles and in some cases support a cause is a better path than shaking my sole tiny fist in defiance. Big brother and Big business both are not going to be taken down by a small force or grass roots effort but will feel the end result when many factions join forces and present a organised realistic answer instead of just protesting we don't like it. For most cases if you do not finish a protest with a real answer or solution then you have little chance of making change.

I can agree with you there Dave . My cell bill is around 120.00 a month for two phones. I do have an unlimited plan because of the amount of data I use in the field for work. Mostly contacting customers and looking up parts or spec. sheets on products. Art

sorry guys but no political discussions are allowed if you want to discuss that do it in P.M. I have deleted them to prevent having to lock the thread. Thank you Art

good score Brian ' Art

All good points Cisco I can see both sides now thanks. I also agree that we do need to research what the effects are on exposures. Actually Tom I am for many of the advancements technology brings us because it is a form of evolution. Whether we eliminate polo because we are exposed to the disease and develop an immunity to it or we are vaccinated by a cure are both the same results. Bassman87 good advise I think I will go into turtle liking mode and let this thread go on with the new knowledge Cisco has given me to think about. be well Art

Cisco it appears you have a different type of needs up North. A lot of businesses are screaming that the outlying areas do not have fast enough internet to support business applications as well as streaming videos. This makes work both faster and easier if you can download a file in minutes instead of hours. The opting out of Florida means it will not be available to them not that they do not want it. Evolution comes in two forms physical and mental. The physical aspect is hard to speed up but the mental abilities can be sped up as fast as the situation demands. In the beginning it is a learned response one that says today is to hot I will spray water on myself or go swimming. The evolutionary aspect is our hair thinned out and our sweat glands became more active. I didn't say our bodies should speed up for technology I said it will speed up for physical difficulties we make happen in the environment we live in. Funny thing is we are changing our DNA and the way it combats issues. An example is the increase of solar radiation ergo we now produce more melanin. I will say this is all long term things that our bodies will take many generations to compensate for these things. Most of my views are based on a philosophy of "what does not kill me will make me stronger" to a rational extent. Excessive fear of changes that are going to happen no matter what you believe or do are just a way too cause stress in ones life. Just a few random thoughts Art

One of the things that drive evolution is that the environmental surroundings change. The ability to negate its impact on humanity is driving evolution either of our physical ability to cope or our intellectual ability to overcome. Consider sunburning. An albino which is a recessed gene will burn in no time in the sun where as a person who has a more modern or advanced gene will tan. This said for modern man to enjoy what he has created and use the advancements that his intellect has created we must then catch up in our physical mutation to it. It is not that big business is advancing this for their own reason rather it is the consumer who wants a bigger better faster product. Big business recognized that it can be lucrative and that they have the resources to make this on a large scale. If a mom and pop company produced a 5g network that covered 200 miles it would fail. Now if they banded together and each provided a network.......... o wait that would make them big business. So the real answer is if consumers do not demand something then business will not provide a service that would fail due to a lack of demand. Art

It is humbling to see how big the equipment is that they use in mining operations. Glad to hear from you here Bernie spring is almost here and those two weeks off will get more and more valuable. Art

Go ahead and write him a note here with a contact number and I will leave him a message on FB to check in with you Brian. Art

Check with Bernie Gieslier he might have one hanging around. Art
