It was really my idea, ask Roy. But I went to sleep instead after the T and the V with the RLG (Resident Love Goddess).

Now that's a gator! Welcome, you'll do just fine. Looking forward to some more reports.

How do? Welcome and everything like that.

Time to let BassBoy007 in on that secret thingy that we all know about, I figger. OK, here's the deal:

Post often, pass or fail, with some pictures of your outing and what you thought was noteworthy.

Great, Wayne, sorry I couldn't make the Fall Classic this year, makes me 4 for 5. Your report says that this trip was the one not to miss. Congratulations to you, Terry and Dano on a great weekend.

Good Luck, Peter. I have two daughters in their early twenties who both live at home. We have basic rules that are respected and these rules apply both ways, for example a reasonable expectation of privacy, and a respect for my feelings. These include time when they can watch a movie in a room by themselves, albeit with an open door, and the bedrooms are always off limits. The girls travel with their boyfriends, and sleep there too from time to time. This might be the way you choose to go with your son.

My sister is gay, and happy, in a long term committed relationship with someone who respects her. What more could a parent ask for?

Another note, gay is not a lifestyle choice any more than heterosexuality is. Did any guy ever choose to be attracted to girls? Of course not. Your sexuality is part of you, and cannot be changed or prayed away, just accepted.

Lew, very well put. Thanks for your insight too.

Very nice, Paul - congratulations.

Funny right there, Brian.

Tremendous, Carole. Congratulations on that fine fine fish.

Great to hear of a successful BoQ for the OFC crew. That first walleye is a brute.

Nothing at the airport in Toronto. I came in from the yard from raking leaves, wearing only a fleece jacket. We're ready for it, snow tires on the vehicles.

Ayup, TJ, what Glen said. High pressure is scary - rtfm.

Fine salmonids, the browns are specially pretty, thanks.

Calculus is only good for those problems where you know there is enough info for the answer, but you just don't know how to get the answer.

Common sense is good for everything else.

Marcus, go forth and prosper. There are fish everywhere at some time or other based on things I can't pretend to understand.

Steelhead in the rivers which feed the great lakes are a good bet right now. Go get em.

Congratulations, Cliff and Carole! Great stuff.

Gerritt, you gotta stop eating those minnows and keeping those worms warm in your mouth. That funky smell will soon abate.

We all knew he would say that. Do not go there, trust me.

I'm a fricken rocket whatever, and I think it's nuts. Getcher money back.

And, it's not just me.

Sounds great, big and ugly.

Here's some down home music for us.

And some more if you like leeks. I know I do.

I have shaken that Dawg's hand many times, and it's always an honour.

I first thought that you had posted that other great Huddie Ledbetter tune, since I can't watch videos at work. Huddie was the man, shoulda died a millionaire, instead of a pauper. He needed a better agent.

HD, what bias we be talkin bout?

I've replaced the stock releases at the front of the planer board with the release shown in the first post, an over-center draw type of clip. They work very well, even with large lures and small braid. I use the stock clips at the rear of the boards.

GCD chanelling Senator Claghorn or Foghorn Leghorn. Well done.

These are all good questions, curious about the answers. Take your camera with you so you can post a great report on your return.

So much for the whole banana thingy there. Those are some fine fish.

Maybe it was this.

That is mad stalking skilz.
