Im dyslexic and I can still launch with zero issues with hands at the bottom of the wheel.

 

Mind you ive had a ton of experience with trailoring everything you can imagine in the oilfields.

 

Ill never forget the first time I had to back up a 4x6 safety trailer into an area with about 4" give on each side, in a foot of snow lol

 

Practise makes perfect. Most people just overthink launching or get nervous with eyes on them.

 

Guys that dont prep the boat off the side of the launch are just ignorant or blatant (insert swear word here)

Chicken stew and dumpling is a good idea?

 

Chicken seems to be the only food I can keep down right now, and turkey.

 

Anything too fatty and not good

We do alot of crockpot meals bill.

 

And big cliff it would just be nice if I could eat anything lol

Im on a streak of tasty and effective(havent been feeling well lately)

 

Remember OI im cooking for 9 everynight. Sometimes ya gotta slow down and chill out lol.

8lb mono for sure!

 

Best line ever to reel in kings?

Ran outta propane so just some boiled corn, cheap pork cuts cooked in a homemade sauce, and rice covered in that sauce lol

 

An out streched hand and a smile is all that is needed LOL. Besides I'd love to make my cream of roasted garlic soup for you one of these days!

Meh, I too was taught not to come empty handed?

 

And if you do at least do some work of sorts.

 

When I go up to gramps on sawbill I bring fuel and weed eat.

 

Im not even sure he knows about the gas???

 

I never talk about it and hes never mentioned it lol.

 

One time i found a used paddle boat for the kids to use up there. I guess I shoulda told him cause he thought it was stolen and dropped off at his cabin lol.

 

Ive tried that soup Cliff, its to die for.

 

And if you make it, I know itll be even better?

Geez Cliff you deserve a humanitarian award for frig sakes!

 

Unreal

 

I rarely mow my lawn(although I enjoy it). We really need a rider. By the time I finish I have to start again lol

 

A nice couple down the road does it because we feed him alot( hes friends with the kiddos).

 

Is bartering still a thing lol.

Post some pics!!!!

 

Great trip by the sounds of it!!!!

Spam will do!???

 

Just busting your...

Do you have and Klick?

 

Ill check out the store. Good luck on your ventures! I like the name!

I would have rather have seen that last night!

 

I was sitting out enjoying some fresh air around 2am and the air was thick with june beetles. I hate their eradic flying. Scares the crap outta me everytime they land on ya outta nowhere ????

You have an open invitation to visit me anytime for any reason. I have been following your posts for a while now and you are the kind of young man that has earned and deserves respect! My door would always be open to you!

Very kind words Cliff? there are good people left on this earth and I think your near the top of that list

 

 

Miigwich

 

Hopefully Ill be able to visit you and some other OFCers soon!

 

Oh and I def wont come empty handed!

I just wanna visit for supper

 

Have you seen his posts in the food thread lol

Shad fishing does look fun!

 

Those bass are brutes! Awesome she landed them on light tackle!

 

My boy was 8 and landed a pg smalley on a 5 ft spincast with 4lb mono lol

 

Maybe I should downgrade my setups lol

It works. And use your mirrors!!! Not one hand over the seat looking out the back!!!

Nice!!!!

Don't they still trade in Beaver pelts at you CTC store Rick?

Hahahahaha your just out to burn me now arent ya?

 

Funny stuff bud! Im no longer calling you sir????

Kinda bums me out abit because I have kept deep hooked pike when I really didnt want too.

 

This might change my mind

 

I wonder what % get it out efficiently? How many die of injury? How many live as if nothing happened at all?

 

Pretty impossible questions to answer but it sure would ne noce to know.

 

Can other freshwater species do this as well?

I just read this.

 

Ive lost two or three rapalas to pike in the rapids and they would pop up withing hours in a backeddie, then washed up to shore.

 

Id love to see how they get dislogded??? Especially so quick

 

Is it possible they use forage to dislodge a lure?

 

Or do they just headshake like a mot@&$*/)#?

My brother and I have it down pretty good as well. It's funny though if something is not done in order how it throws off the rest of the process.

True enough!

 

Im not gonna lie, its still unnerving launching in a tourny with 400 onlookers lol

 

Anxiety time hahaha

I would have lost it!!!!

 

There are no docks where we launch at various lakes. I usually fish with my pops. We have a good system.

 

Off to the side to take off the boat cover and load the boat.

 

Once ready and she unstrapped, one of us launches the other guides(althoigh its not really needed much)

 

One hops in the boat, fires it up and pull up off to the side while the other goes and parks. Takes no time at all.

 

If im luanching on my own, same process but i get out and use the rope to pull the boat aside.

 

Gets ya launched good clean and quick and the launch os open for others in about a minute or two

A few more days and there will be 1000's sitting right there?

 

Then its go pro time!

 

Lol i got 2 or 3 years of stugeon spawning vids i still need to edit

Lowblow oldironmaker, low blow????

Can I have a beer in the boat yet please ?

Yes
