Sorry to hear that man... All of a sudden my lost/stolen wallet doesnt seem like such a big deal...

Aside from the fact that I am working instead of fishing....my day has been going better. Still havent found my wallet though...

Yup, stuck at work on opening morning.... Here's my "new to me" boat that I can't wait to get wet.

You're prob right! I was thinking of going to either Nosbonsing or Wassi. I here the water level isnt as bad as Nip, and I might be able to dodge a big crowd. To be honest, fish or no fish, I want to get out on the water in my new boat.

Now thats a fishing trip!!! There's nothing better than going to back lakes like that, even if the portage is tough.

This winter I bought a three year fishing license...If I report my outdoors card lost, do I have to buy a new lisence as well, or is this something kept on file?

lol...I was thinking the same thing. With my luck it won't be in the driveway when I get home. (knock on wood...lol)

Well, the gas attendant is prob waiting for me as we speak...I could not leave any ID as collateral, so he took my name, number and license plate. Chances are when Ihead back to pay it off, I'll get pulled over by the cops...lol Thats a good idea, I never though about scanning everything and keeping an electronic file of it...

You's are right...it could be worse.

I know there are allready too many rants, but I need to vent... To begin my day, I get into work this morning, turn on my computer, and all of a sudden, my background gets replaced by a message saying that my computer has been seriously infected. Then shuts down, and won't start. Off to the comuter guy who tells me it is in fact very serious and he's not sure if he'll be able to save all my files...and no, I hadn't backed up my files in quite some time. I get through the morning keeping positive thoughs and decide to out for lunch. I stop in at the gas station to fill up on the way back to realize I do not have my wallet. Tell the attendant that I will have to come back and pay later. Retraced my steps since the last time it was used, but couldnt find it. I literaly tore my office, house and truck apart looking for it. No luck. THEN, THE WORST PART OF ALL, As I got back to work my boss tells me I have to work this weekend. Brand new boat, walleye opener, and I have to work... I really hope my day dosent get any worse... Thanks for letting me vent...lol

Very Sharp!! How do you get that nice pattern? Are you spraying over a mesh or something?

Over the winter I got a new tackle box so I transferred every thing over. Prob wont be as clean after a few trips...lol

This is an awesome topic. I have noticed I am not the only one who is obsessed with organization in the tackle box. lol Sorry for the low quality pics. Here's my tackle. Not everything has caught a fish, but they will one day New Browning Tackle Bag Side Pouche w/ Softbaits Yes, I'm too organized... Topwaters Cranks Jerkbaits & Minnows Spoons & Spinners Softbaits Jigs (this box usualy gets left behind cause of its weight..lol) Walleye (misc) Hooks Spinner baits Weights Terminal Tackle

I took this photo this morning at work. They says its going to fall all day... And I was supposed to pickup my new boat tonight. lol Might be a cold walleye opener in the North ...didn't realize Randy had already made a post...

That's a monster perch. What did he measure? And cngrats on your 3rd place finish!

Bring some water as well. The lake is still quite low.

Amazing pics! Looks like you had a successful outing. I've never caught a spec on a crankbait, good job!

I'd bring him along with me any day of the week...lol

Yeah, sure is a nice boat!

LOL....This might start a new craze! Instead of Where's Waldo...It'll be Where's Dave! Watch out Dave, here come the Paparazzi! lol

Well said and very true!

What kind of advice is this? Come on guys...

I'd hire a trapper before shooting it with a .410, that's for sure! Sometimes, depending on where your located and if the season is still open, some trappers will help you out for minimum fee due to the fact that they will be able to market the pelt. Once the season is closed and the pelt value is no longer there, they will charge more. Again, this depends on where you are and who you ask. If I was in your area, I'd do it for free. For me, its comparable to someone asking me to come catch the bass under their dock...or to take that buck that has been eating the garden...lol

Thats my main question...I've only been on a bass boat a handful of times, so I am unfamiliar with how much storage there really is.

Yeah, I hear ya. Mine is filling up quite quick too. Its as if I see the empty spaces and have a strong urge to fill them...lol Yeah, That's what I thought.
