misfish

I have been using a manul auger the last 3 years. No problem at all.

Ok, Im in too, but I have to work 27-30,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Non-Union.

Thats about all I have to say too,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Well except, you have your ways, I have mine. Yours are more extream though.LOL Nice going.

I thought it was going to be Joey, but man that was a wild finish. Yes Carl made a boner move, but classie of him to step up and say. me bad. Need more to do this. Not blame others for their own screw ups.

Yup, all joking aside, your bang on Albert. Walk and chip. Im down to 180 lbs again, so Terry will be leading the way this year. Right BUDDY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I know you are smiles from ear to ear dude. Jimmy has joined some of the greats http://www.nascar.com/en_us/news-media/articles/2016/11/20/jimmie-johnson-wins-seventh-sprint-cup-series-championship-homestead-miami.html

I had the ice ducer then. Just hang it off the side. Waters not that cold yet. Hell, we floated out on simcoe after ice out. Now that was cold.

The finder base screws onto the lexan plate. use two of those 1" quick release straps. attaches right on the tube. I couldnt find a pic with it on my tube, but you get the idea Dutch.

I have my finder holder that I made Dutch. Rotates 180 deg. No use to me now. Yours if you want it. Just straps on with a 1" quick strap.

LMAO If you only knew the ice we have been on.

Well let me be the first to say, you SCORED. This was my first float boat. I loved it. You will need a set of flippers now. Then comes the mods to add a finder. Then comes the, this is good, but now I want something bigger. Then you are now into a toon. More mods to be had. Enjoy Dutch.

After 2 hours up waist deep, I was wishing I was on hard water in a warm hut. I drove by my fav spot Albert. Still wide open. LMAO Cant wait to get ya up here and share some more stories.

Beauty fish Joey.

If I lived even close to that spot, I would be out there on my toon. That would be so freaking cool. That hit and miss fish was HUGE dude. Enjoy your posts. As for the hit and miss on fish, it,s seems to be for everything these days. Thanks for posting. Poor fish that you power slammed.LOL J/K.

Not sure why. LOL I lasted 2 hours. That was enough for me. Bloody line was flying off the pin.LOL

I dont remember a year where every lake or river system I fished, was like bath water. Didnr matter if it was an inland lake, or chain.

Even at 11 pm last night, it was nice to just sit outside in a T. Lets see if the weather man is on this time. Minus temps called all week.

Man, I thought you were serious. LOL

Yup. I just seen what they had for sale, and made my own Shane.

You SIR, are a bad influance BTW. I never found so much stuff in my truck that I forgot I had,or thought I had lost. Found my little tackle tray of 100+ beads and hooks under the toon bladder. Baits everywhere. Under the seats, behind the seats. The only thing I didnt find, was the kitchen sink. LOL

Winter is upon us,,,,,,,,,, With the change of the season finally here, I took the morning from traveling, wadding in cold waters up past the jewels, and get the toon put away. It,s been a great year thus far. Lots of miles driven,walking, and flipping away on my float boat. Lakers,white fish,perch,trout and salmon. The bass fishing was awesome as well this year. Have no complaints at all. I look back today thinking of how much fishing I have done this year so far . It,s been a blast. Lots of traveling to unknown lakes and rivers and streams. Even marking a few trips off the bucket list. Some trips were set in stone,some where by having an early morning coffee and a muffin and just saying yup, lets go dat away. Some of those ,dat aways, didnt always pan out, but no matter to me, I was out there, free and experincing something unknown waters to me. Some will never understand, but there are those that do. It,s the solo time that allows one time to think,relax and just enjoy what mother nature has provided. Then theres those memories of the days back when. Just that one thing, at that moment, that reminds one of a time. One like this. I had this nice big bass on, and all of a sudden it spit the lure. The lure came flying back at me, I ducked, but, it still managed to get caught in my hat. I started laughing. No one around but me. Remembered a day fishing with my pop,on Weslacoom. I had a hit, full blown hook set. It was dark, and didnt know how much line I had out. Turned out I gotten the line near my pops ear. OMG, Im laughing so hard right now. It was like yesterday. I remember his exact words, you almost tore my F$%$% ear off. There is one thing I do miss at this time of year, The joy, of the deer hunt, Since my eye situation, I have taken extra precautions. Probly more precaution then I should, but losing your sight is scary crap. Next year, I hope to get back into it, Miss the time with my pop out in the bush, just enjoying the day ,father and son time. HELL, with my bad knee, and his wonky hip, we,ll be walking side by side now. Yup, Im getting old and broken too. Time catches up to us all. If we do manage to harvest a deer, it better be by the truck. LOL So like the title says, winter is coming. The toon is packed away, got the ice fishing gear preped and in order. Oh the winter weather will not stop me from walking to, and wading in those cold waters, but once the lake solids up, I,ll be out there in a nice warm heated hut , fishing away, Fishing never stops. Theres a season for somthing to fish for. Thank goodness, as I am not one that can sit ideal on weekends. Till the next adventure, tight lines,,,,,,,,,,,, B

If I get to your age Norm, and can manage to steer a scooter, I,ll be happy to just get out. Fishing will be a bonus. Ya giver a go. BONUS to you.

I knew I stayed up late for a special fishing report. Nice one Harold.
