Waking the dog, catching walleye.

[limeyangler]

Hi all,

I was finding it difficult to post this, lots of thoughts about Kevin running through my mind, hits close to home even though I never met him. I'm terrible at articulating myself in writing but I started thinking about something my dad told me a few years back, he said "this is not a dress rehearsal", in other words get out there and do what makes you happy, this is it! I could have mown the lawn, cleaned the house,truck,garage etc...etc...but I figure I won't be on my death bed wishing I had done those things, so I indulged my passion and took the dog for a walk, caught some fish and made a video, guess what, the truck is still dirty and our new kitten puked in an already messy house....life goes on.

Another great video sir and your write up on the money. I found myself watching the dog and his reaction instead of the fish! lol

LOL...I just realized that Roloff now responds to the 'beep' of the goPro, he knows when it beeps that it is fish on and comes running...smart pup.

Thanks HH, without fail a pike tries to snatch a walleye at that spot, I have use of a cache boat there if I want, must get my act together and take advantage of that, would be an interesting day casting some big lures in there.

Yeah, he does not even go in after the beaver there, just barks from shore.

I used the drone yesterday to scope out a new logging road which I figured must go pretty close to a lake that has AMAZING walleye fishing but is really only accessible in the winter....looks promising.

As always really enjoyed the post and the video 

your Dads advice and you sharing it was also great.  

Cheers
