Red necks you might be a Red neck if you (you can fill in the blanks) what ever works in a pinch to keep you heading to the water is good

Vey nice, with heavy duty hardware

That is encouraging Rick evolved through hundreds of thousands of years and still a healthy population, thanks for the pics

Hope theres NO split shot in there, when you turn on the pump

Absolutely correct, and a great wording as well, and i like your thinking Garnet, just didnt want to say it, 15 to 20 odd years ago the Rice Lake Walleye tourney was won each year with 42 to 45 pounds of eyes for 2 days, which was a 4 to 5 pound average, with usually a larger anchor fish in the mix, so they were not all dinks, at least not on Rice

Walleye populations in most K Lakes have went through the decline, where most fish caught were big ones, and recruitment was poor, likely in part due to Black Crappie, and environmental changes, but that population(Black Crappie) as well has peaked, and found balance, as most invasive species due, more recruitment, has been noted, and populations have stabilized, with all year classes showing up in the mix, except Scugog where recruiment is very poor or next to nil, i do believe it will rebound somewhat, but no walleye fishery in the K Lakes will ever be back to the glory days of 30 years ago, again we have better equipment to locate structure, and GPS to take us back there, rods reels tackle line etc have all improved immensely, more knowlegable, and versatile angling pressure, where most anglers realize they have to adapt, to be successful, and the ones who do catch fish, and the ones who dont adapt, have poorer results. Find the food, and you find the fish, and dont forget your bucktail jigs,

Beautiful birds and amazing photography

Welcome aboard , with your log in name at least you wont be scaring the ladies on the forum just kiddin

Very nice truck Rick Im a Dodge man by heart and soul, got it from my dad, but i really like those new Sierras, and Silverados, especially with the after market accessories available, and the front grilles matching the body panels.

My cranking battery was a 2011, and my trolling motor deep cycles were 2012, replaced all, if your into 6 years, and having issues you dont want to get a toe or paddle your way back to the launch, time to replace

Thanks for a great post, and 3 fish ive yet to catch, and would love the opportunity to do someday, before im on the south side of the grass

Ill take one as well

nice to see some retro gear, well done

Very nice gester Shane, give Big Cliff a whitefish he eats for a day, give Big Cliff 2 whitefish he eats for 2 days

Thinner diameter braids will definately dig into the spool, the more braid you spool on the more its likely to happen, go with the regular power pro, or even bump up to 100 pound, if you are catching fish like the one in your avitar

My families deepest sympathy on your loss, and every ones loss here, and inspiration to all, and a remarkable person in all aspects, Joey was a photographic genious, who photographed all of natures beauty whether it was wildlife, birds, flora, or the conk on a tree, she found beauty in everything our creator gave us, and heaven just received a true angel

In the Regs it says muskies in FMZ 17 MUST be greater then 44 inches,

Just quoting King C in general Larks tonges in Aspic, and in the Court of King C are my favorites, havnt listened to RED yet but you peaked my interest

The yellow jester does not play, but gently pulls the strings, he smiles as the puppets dance in the court of the Crimson King RIP JW

I to find solace, and peace in the beauty that the Creator has blessed us with, all the best to you and your family

The 2 largest threats to human health in the near future will be Mental Health, and Diabetes Ronzo that was an incredible story and write up, and i know exactly where your coming from

Im suprised that there is as much ice as reported, we really havnt had much cold weather at all

Nice fishie report Cliff, all you need is the Bushes Beans, and fried taters, the hard part you have taken care of,

The moose is great, but even more so is the fact that your sister is challenging and over coming her anxiety, 1 in 3 people will have some form of a mental health issue within their lifetime, myself included, but more worrisome for a parent is when their offspring is not well physically or more so mentally as their is no quick fix to a mental health issue, which can go on for years, and a lifetime, my daughter also suffers greatly from this disease, hug your sister for me, for someone whos been there and living it every day God Bless

They drove a Pea green Honda Element, rented a boat, and had 2 Snoopy rods and reels, with Budwiser bobbers, the MNR did not have much use for them on the resale market LOL, Just kidding
