My parents used to have a K-Car wagon. Those were awesome for carrying lots of stuff and it was a great sleep wagon. It was the woody style.

I don,t need her permission .

That,s a tank sir. Well done.

If your heading up anywhere here, give a shout. i can book a weekday off. Be well worth it, to learn from you.

Bruce,mighty fine looking pickling. Or is that , Bruce almighty pickler. .LOL I asked awhile back about doing cauliflower. Any tips? Simple please.LOL

Welcome fellas. The waters around here have been crazy as well Brad. Checked out four different systems this morning. Notty is dirty and high, 1 small trib was clear cool but high. The other 2 were silt blown. I hate to see that. Should be a good closer for specks and browns, if the rain stays away for a bit.

More room for more crap.LOL

Well lets see. I just did some playing around on the dodge site. Im not impressed with the price for a basic 2x4 - 6 cyl. This is the truck I want,if I get one. Single cab,short box. 4x4 would be ok. Thats the net price before the rest of the Bull taxes. http://www.ramtrucks.com/hostc/bmo/CUT201413DS1L61B/2TB/summary.do

You tube is easy and fast.

Grand kiddie is here for a sleep over. I charis these times. Get to spoil them and send them home. As they get older,it seems they are demanding.LOL Not only the gummy bear song,10 + times so far,. Duck song, Got any grapes waddel waddel,,5 x,,Frozen, Let it go, 20 times,( which she can sing word for word) Not bad for a 3 year old. , Love my grand kids to death. It,s all about FAMILY.FUN. As I look over my shoulder,,my angle is fast a sleep with Gizmo by her side.. PRECIOUS.

That was spot one.LOL

They will do the same with a tube. All you feel is a tic. My bigger smallies and my PB, have been caught on just a tic bite. I found myself letting the bait rest/letting line out when when this happens. Now I just reel up and give a good haul on the rod. My percentage has gone up since then. No time for them to think,do i like it or don,t I.

Ok,now your pushing my luck Rick.LOL Im happy with what I got. Some may not know the feeling I get from this simple way,but it,s a blast. Wish I had of discovered it sooner. I still like my time out on the big boats. Don,t get me wrong.

Shane i think when I,m done,it will be pretty cool. If it works out like I think it will, I can stop ,lay out the decoys move a bit away,drop 2 anchors to hold me in position. No need to be tight to the edge. I love open water fowls. Thanks.

If I had only known the handle on the motor extended, life would of been so much easier.LOL

Read your, on site reports Lew. Sound like a great time was had, no matter the weather. Nice to see you and Dianne home safe. Almost time for you to think of hibernation aint it? LOL

The NEXT President of the US of A.

A hunter does,what he has ta..LOL

Shane,SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH (Im looking,just dont tell her) Decoys are on my lap. Surprised? LOL

Right answer ^^^^^^^

As much as I would love one,I would cringe at the fact of watching the gas pump going up to 100+ bills to fill. Yes there are many bonus factors to having a truck,but I get along just fine as you all have seen. I have no boat to tow or a place to keep it. But I have a float aboat that fits in nice,along with anything I need for a days fishing. This is why I have the, Mopar buddy..Great millage 60 bux to fill (when fuel is $1;30) and lasts a full two weeks. I get to fish from Barrie to any lake near Gravenhurst.. No this is not a garage sale,this is my traveling tackle box. Some days,I just get in and drive and I never know where or what,Im going to be fishing for. It,s an awesome feeling.. Repacked for another outing. No Terry,that is not your flipper. And just so were all clear here,I dont leave my keys in it. And it is well insured.. LOL

The fish are there,it,s the catching part factor. Welcome and got a good chuckle from your intro..

First I have to say a big thanks to Terry for his very generous offering .Thanks bud. Now to the ,,,,,,,,,,,,, I said I would,nt,and yet,I went and did. BUT, it,s not what it looks like. Really. Come the fall,I will be duck hunting from the toon on some bodies of water that will require me to get out there and set up. No rowing or flipping to get there. After the morning hunt,I will flip/row my way back for some fishing. Fall crappies and eyes should be on by then. So my plan was to get an electric motor and a battery. Knowing that the toon can take up to 350 pounds, me and gear I started my quest for motor.and then a small battery. The motor offer came to a surprise to me,so just need to find a battery. Asking questions on the board here,I went with what Terry was using. I like the fact it can be in any position,being that it,s sealed. Laying it on it,s side was perfect for my needs. My toon frame, is nothing like the one Terry has. Mine is a smaller frame tube structure.. So a platform was a must. For the battery and a motor mount and a place to put a bag of duck decoys. Rod holder as well. So before I even started to think of where I was going to put hold down eye bolts,I just winged it this morning. Lots of bungee cords.LOL I attached the motor first. Ok, looks good. Then I put the 24 pound battery on. Front of the toon is starting to point to the sky. Well not that extream,but it looked like it might not work. I look at Terry and say,I have turned into you here. LOL Terry ENSURES me that ,i,ll be fine. Sit your fat in it. I took great offence to this, as I have lost 20 pounds this summer. So I do as told and it all balanced out. Still alittle leary, I row myself out slowly away from any danger to self. . Once out in the open water,I turn it to 1. Yeehaw,Im moving. I try the oars for controlling direction like in the video I seen on youtube. Hey,it works. Once comfortable,I turn it up to 2 then 3. This is very cool. Ok, all systems are a go. Crank it to hyper speed,5. My rooster tail is soaking Terry behind me. Ok, it wasnt a rooster tail,but I was flying. So after all the fun and learning to control the toon with the electric,it was fishing time. The high east winds kept us off Simcoe this morning,so we headed to a small lake near by. The normal spinner bait largies were on,but all small ones. I found it funny,they would hit a boiling spinner bait,but no top water baits. Some even hit right at the splash and retrieve. After a bit of fun with them, I wanted to try trolling with my first homemade worm harness. Turns out,this toon moves at a decent trolling speed at 1. It didnt take long before I was getting hits but missed the first two. The third one smashed it, I set the hook and yes,a fish on my own home made bait. I was hoping it was a walleye but nope.. It was a great feeling and accomplishment in my eyes. I think the whole lake heard me cheering. We trolled around for a few hours then called it a morning. Terry did well today as well. I,m sure he will share his pics. I have to say,I did feel guilt having the motor moving me around. I really truly love the work out of flipping and rowing. I know what the motor is for,so I will be back to my regular work out next outing. Yes, the motor will still be on the toon, as a last safety resort. Things can happen out on the water in a heart beat. Sometimes,Im to proud to admit it. But Im sure my family wants me around a little bit longer.LOL Stay tooned, for my next project in a couple of weeks.. The TOON DUCK BLIND. I have some cool ideas for this.

I still have no passport. Would love to pop some corn and pull up a chair . I like circus,s.
