Not much better here Tom. Was snowing again today but no accumulation. Just over the zero point meant no scraping.

I think she likes fishing more than me.

Steam clean, even a pressure washer can do well.

Careful about attaching those to a tree. Those things can seize in solid. A torch and a sledgehammer are sometimes the only solution . Those 5.4 engines are one of the best on the market. Fair torque and horsepower too. The 4.6 came out in the early 90's and many of the Ford engines are based on it. I have never had one of my customers engines based on those have a major failure. As a matter of fact the only time I even had a valve cover off of one was a rocker broke on a Marquis 4.6. That was several years ago and the car was poorly maintained by the customer. Once in a while a high miler 5.4 will seep oil between the head gasket and the block but haven't had one yet that was serious enough to need to pull apart. The Dodge pickup gas engines also seem to be reliable in the last few years, too bad about the rest of the truck.

O Joey, I am so sorry to hear this. My heartfelt condolences for you and your family.

I had a decent rubber net until it was left on my boat top (I won't mention any names .) I found out at high speed it will blow off and into the lake. .....It didn't float Next one I get if it doesn't float will be filled with foam in the handle.

A coon knocked over my fish fryer. I heard the noise and ended the problem promptly.

Hope you end up OK there Glen. We are expecting a needed rain here but hopefully nothing like you are experiencing.

Love the weekends "fishing with the guys" reports. Lots of good times. Good to see you back too Wayne.

It's been quite a while to see a fishing report from you Roy. Good stuff! Those jigs are all I use Roy. They work well for me too.

I have no idea what you are talking about.

Great shots KF. I really like those old shots too. The Hinchberger's were long time customers of the boat shop. And Bill Hinchberger was my mom's cousin.

Great report Cliff! Very interesting types of fish. Not sure I would eat any of them. Good to see some different ways the world fishes.

Well done Tony! Sorry about the odd you need to put up with here. I think most of the members here are quite proud of you and your accomplishments.

Not sure about the dolphin but I think I see the handle of the net.

There are no evening pictures. No one could hold the camera straight.

The only place I want to be.

You looked like you were in fine spirits yesterday Joe, the rest of the guys looked a little worn. O ya, the sheep noise thing Joe mentioned earlier? It's fishing related--really!

I could mail them down to ya G but they may end up with a little more odor to them. O ya the pics have a little smudge on the lens. Must have been a little febreze overspray?

Have a good trip Cliff. Hope you get a chance to fish this time.

Joey. A little potato salad on the side and a tall cool one (a Joe Special mixture- thanks Joe!). mmmmmm! KF he probably won't think of it until he sees this. We did catch quite a few bass this weekend while targeting pickerel- they were voracious. But the pickerel were biting, all in all a very good weekend.

Forget something? It's OK, I will have them for supper, don't want them to go bad.

Does anyone fish for bass?

Just got a call from my daughter. She said she and BF got their limit at dusk in 15 minutes. Gotta try that tonight.

Roy I would be glad to have you visit sometime. Show me how to troll for those "big ones" that keep jumping in my bay.
