bigugli Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 Despite the winds today managed to find some fish along the shoreline. Hard to detect the bite with the winds. Still managed some perch and one O.K beasty. Better than another day indoors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigugli Posted November 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 No kitchen sink pic? Did that Poike die of "hot oil" disease? Glad to see you got out!!! No kitchen sink. Mr Poike and 5 of the larger perch will be guests of honour at a later date. Having one of our notorious pot luck fish fries here at "Ugli Acres" in a couple of weeks. we end up with 30-40 redneck fisherpersons for some good clean fun and stuffed bellies. Great way to start my Christmas season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigugli Posted November 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 (edited) Sounds great, big and ugly. Here's some down home music for us. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjvVBCNcL_A And some more if you like leeks. I know I do. I actually remember hearing the tune, not the words, when I was small. One of my fave recordings is a 1981 tape from the Tapiolan Kuoro That my Gram bought for me at the Suomi Aitta. Always played at Christmas and when I spend long hours cooking. The fave track would be " Vesi vasyy limen alle " I know every note and harmony of the following even though I don't know the words http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aB3uiCF39Hs...feature=related Gram would have me play it on the horn every once in a while.

Rich Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 Nice fish, but... There have been some amazing advances in the fishing rod industry! Maybe check them out? lol Just buggin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigugli Posted November 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 (edited) Nice fish, but... There have been some amazing advances in the fishing rod industry! Maybe check them out? lol Just buggin' That 5' glass rod is 40 years old and has never failed. A present from my Uncle Jonni. I still like using it for pannies. And that handle is solid cork. Lord knows how many times its gone swimming The gear from the past may not be cutting edge but it was built to last. Just like the old 300A or my old Rapala knife that Gram bought me in Finland before they were available here. Like they say: "Why mess with perfection?"
