A beauty report and excellent pictures. Congrats on a great season fishing for ol ugly puss, a face only a mother could love.lol! Thanks for sharing. Cheers, 1leg

I've been riding in one for 8 years now, no complaints except for the disease all boat owners have of 2-footitice. Good luck with your search. Cheers, 1leg

Please take a moment at this time of year to think about the men and woman who serve that wil not be able to spend Christmas and the holidays with their famalies. Twas the night before Christmas, He lived all alone, In a one bedroom house, Made of plaster and stone, I had come down the chimmney, With presents to give, And to see just who, In this home did live, I looked all about, A strange sight I did see, No tinsel, no presents, Not even a tree, No stocking by the mantle, Just boots filled with sand, On the wall hung pictures, Of far distants lands, With medals and badges, Awards of all kinds, A sober thought, Came through my mind, For this house was different, It was dark and dreary, I found the home of a soldier, One I could see clearly, The soldier lay sleeping, Silent and alone, Curled upon the floor, In this one bedroom home, The face was so gentle, The room in such disorder, Not how I pictured A Canadian/American soldier, Was this the Hero, Of whom I'd just read? Curled up on a poncho, The floor for a bed, I realized the famalies, That I saw this night, Owed their lives to these, Soldiers who were willing to fight, Soon round the world, Children would play, And grownups would celebrate, A bright Christmas day, They all enjoyed freedom, Each month of the year, Because of soldiers, Like the one lying here, I couldn't help wonder, How many lay alone, On a cold Christmas Eve, In a land far from home, The very thought brought, A tear to my eye, I dropped to my knees, And started to cry, The soldier awakend, And I heard a rough voice, "Santa, don't cry, this life is my choice" I fight for freedom, I don't ask for more, My life is my God, My country, my corps, The soldier rolled over, and drifted to sleep, I couldn't control it, I continued to weep, I kept watch for hours, So silent and still, And we both shivered, From the cold night chill, I didn't want to leave, On that cold, dark night, This guardian of honour, So willing to fight, Then the soldier rolled over, With a voice, soft and pure, Whispered "Carry on Santa It's Christmas Day, All is Secure" One look at my watch, I knew he was right, "Merry Christmas My Friend, And too All A Good Night"

Hope it's a good one and Santa brings you some hard water for January. Happy B-Day!! Cheers, 1leg

Hey Peter hope the dinner turns out well and wish there were more employers like you who appreciated the hard work put in by staff especially this time of year. Cheers, 1leg

Roger the biggin was caught with shiners, can get a little expensive as those buggers aren't cheap down there. Sounds like you don't want to fish with live bait but with the amount of pressure some of those inland lakes take it might be something to think about. Hope your have a great time! Cheers, 1leg

Been out with Gator Rod Charters a couple of times. He guides out of Lake Toho in Kississmee. Offers full and half days. Never been disappointed, looking at a 9lbs largemouth mount on my wall from a day with him. PM if you would like details. Cheers, 1leg

Congrats Joey/ Mrs.Hollywood.lol . Looking forward to seeing the episode and who knows where this could lead. Sure know you could do a better job than Shelley and Courtney. Had the pleasure to meet Dave a couple of times, true ambasador for fishing. Cheers, 1leg

Gerrit your little guy is just awesome! The talent of some of the board members just amazes me, great job Fishfinder. Cheers, 1leg

Missed the original post also. So sorry to hear about the puppy and the jerk that didn't have the decency to even stop. Hope everything works out for the best Glen and you would be surprised how quickly puppies can adapt to new challanges. A lot of other people would have given up on the little fella(the vet bills aint cheap) so good on you and wife for rehabbing the pup. All the best! Cheers, 1leg

Congrats to you and Carole for a tremendous walleye(pickeral sounds more Canadian IMHO) season to say the least. Also love the fact all fish were caught from shore and hundreds of dollars of tackel was not requried. Look forward to your reports next season. Cheers, 1leg

That was one big bear. Hope she went quickly. Thanks for the link. Cheers, 1leg

Congrats to the both of you. Beauty fish to say the least. Good for you for finding that honey hole and most definitely keep it to yourselves. You did the leg work you reap the rewards. All hail the best shore fisherman/woman this site has seen in a while. Cheers, 1leg
