Nice report... small but fat, my arse...lol maybe fishnsled could come up here next time i have to mow the lawn....

Tim Allard and Justin Hoffman who both write regularly for OOD were writing for me long before them. They are both top notch professionals now, and Im proud to be associated with them!!

Yes... that would deserve its own section....

ya lol.. its a good thing I can laugh at myself.... whatever happened to that dude.... is he still around.. I cant remeber what his handle was... but I think he got run outta town.... to bad... made me feel like Rodney Dangerfield...

No .... never..... why???? Usually im the geeky guy with glasses... that was a classic....

Puckhead... lol.. your avatar reminds me of what i felt like when i quit my last job.... and largemouth ... this is a hockey and boat repair forum, run by fishermen... i thought you knew that!!! It may not be all fishing all the time, but I challange you to find a group of people willing to dish out some much help on a consistant basis.... and its not just my house any more... its a mod partnership.... rather than having a splitting headache... we split on headaches....

Personally... I only read the non-fishing posts.... they are the only ones I can usually help with..... From day 1 - going back 10 years now in whatever form the board had, its always been one main discussion forum and as long as Im involved, thats the way it will stay.... as a matter of fact, we've already broken it up and added a tourney forum... so non tourney types don't have to wade through that, as well as a photo forum, so those that don't want to look at non fishing pictures dont have to and we've seperated news, announcements and contests off as well.... Its ten times more fragmented now than as it used to be as it is. personally... I'd like to have 50 threads on the main page to go down through, to see what interests me. By the way puckhead.. I love your avatar... I could watch him do that all day.... maybe I will....

Great job clifff... i am getting a good reponse from sponsors as well.

ROY!!!! Did you pay the bills this month???? I think he bet our dough on Pittsburg..... dammit.... and wheres marty... Likely still crying in his beer....

Heres a story for you... when Avery was 3 years old I took him quite far in the bush, camping on this little lake trout lake I had heard about, and we camped out on an island.... we fished lakers for a couple hours before dark, and not a bite... Back to the island we go, and as its getting darker we notice that along the rock shore there are HUNDREDS of small rock bass milling about, I had a few worms and we put a small hook on his line and a piece of worm and he starts hauling in the 2-4 inch rock bass with little problem.. and he was DETERMINED we were gonna eat them... we kept a dozen or so and I was trying to figure out how to eat them... to small to fillet... so I tried a trick I used on small brook trout before... I gutted them, l cleaned out the cavity well.. and put them on a stick like a hot dog, going through the mouth then the cavity, finally sticking the pointy end of sick into the tail.... Due to gravity the fish will hang upside down and you can cook it over the open fire with the scales on the outside.... OK this is the neat part.... as the fish cooks, the cavity opens up and curls back, so once done you can just pick the meat outta the fish, bone free... finger licking good. I was TOTALLY surprised at how good the fish was... it was a nice clean clear trout lake, and we must have spent an hour cooking these fish over the fire... I have to say its one of the fondest memories I have with him fishing. I do also remember how he got me up as the sun came up to go get some more........ uhhggg (any one who knows me, knows I'm not a particularly happy early riser, which explains my tendency to love to troll for pike midday... lol).
