Nice fish guys, glad to see reports in December... Mike

Yikes. I remember the ice storm, I had a bunch of friends who were without power for quite a long time. Mike

Hi Roger: Too bad about the leaking, other things to check is to see if the ground around the foundation slopes away to prevent pooling, eavestroughs aren't clogged and drain well away from the foundation, sump pump is working properly and hose isn't clogged if there is one. I'm told that inside patches don't last long b/c they don't solve the problem (water coming through the foundation walls). Waterproofing on the outside, which means excavation etc., is expensive but it's the only long-term solution. Mike

Be careful if you head out guys, I'm sure the tribs are high & fast after all the rain today... Mike

Nice trout! Mike

I forgot the tourney results are reported at the Dec swill. Another reason to go if you haven't made up your mind yet... Mike

Is the company's policy set in stone? Maybe they only ship UPS but would consider shipping USPS for you. Mike

wtg, that's a nice 'ski to break your streak... Mike

And I thought you had gotten into some kind of jam again... Mike

Nanook, What browser are you using? I just downloaded Firefox and I have to admit I am impressed with how elegant it is compared to IE... Mike

Glad you guys got out, and nice way to end, with a nice fish while getting ready to call it a day... Mike

Nice entry for our team, Wayne! Mike

Gotta love those days when everything comes together, makes up and more for the skunkings... Mike

Great intro, you've figured out the secret (lots of pics). Welcome to the board... Mike

You were out there, that's dedication! Mike

Would probably help if you can stand the smell! I'd suggest soaking the luers in hot water for awhile and then rinse. Mike

Good advice from ricoboxing, you haven't just cut the caffeine you've also cut the habit of having a hot drink, flavour of coffee etc. I have cut down my caffeine over the past couple of years, rarely drink colas anymore and I drink much less coffee. Sounds like you've already gone "cold turkey" but I found it easier to slowly cut down, first in number of cups of coffee and then mixing up caf & decaf. Mike

Amazing pics guys, what kind of resolution cameras do you have? We have a 4 megapixel camera that's several years old, good enough for casual photos, fishing & cottaging but I don't think good enough for the kinds of shots you are posting here... Mike

Either of those suggestions should work, the only other thing I can think of is to check that your browser has cookies & java enabled. Mike

I read your trilogy out of order, first dinner then breakfast and now lunch. Funny set of stories, I've encountered some pretty ambitious panfish too. Mike

Fun trilogy, but you're freaking me out in that pic with those EYES... It's like they are following me as I move around the computer... eerie... Mike

It's going to be a looooooooooong winter... Mike

My season is pretty much done and I didn't make any contributions to my team (Team 5). I guess I'll have to start planning for next year's tourney... Mike

Glad you got out with your grandpa again, and nice trout! I'd also guess around 7 lbs for that last one... Mike

Cool, maybe it won't only be the misty jrs asking for his autograph at the swill! Mike
