I'm thinking you've bought it so try it out on the salmon, maybe they might like it.....It's red and well they bite on orange a lot..... Doesn't it feel good to buy a new Lure..... ahhhh it's almost as good as fishing.......

Actually... the two females have too small of butts for me....I like their to be more on the fish and more on the botty....careful it's a family site here...

Looking very good, and mine has snow on it now, it never fails, I bring her home too early, but normally she's in the barn,but with the wheel bearing blown, I can't move it again yet.......... soon soon soon.....Gettin 'er Wet.... LOL

I don't know about your Fix Sean, in Munising, I don't know if the ice will be out by June, up there......LOL

That's one fat fish.......

Jason, VG's does this every year, and there's one near you in Burton I think, if not Corunna road isn't that far away from you, but I think there's one on Center road too. I picked up over 100 colorado blue spruce trees, though very small, some day in the next 5 years they won't be so small.

Awesome tree Mike, I can't wait to see a picture of in 30 years..... man I hope we still have computers then. It's amasing though how fast tree's grow...I look back at my old house when I had it in 1995 and the 3' trees I planted are 25 feet or higher....

Ken, Wow that sounds great, just to have a wood burning stove wood be nice.... but I'll bet you enjoyed that fire, and think of all the money you saved from not going to Florida... We stay at home during this time period, it's too darn busy down' there. Sorry for being stupid, but what species of fish is that a Trout? Darn that's beautiful.

There's nothing like a fresh picked tomatoe.... for Dinner, with some salt and pepper... Yummy.... We've put in a small orchard too, not many trees yet. I'm starting a small Tree farn too, seems our local grocery store give out small Spruce trees for earth day and nobody wants them, so last year they gave me over 100 trees, 80 of them survived, I can't wait for another earth day soon. Wehn I'm retired, I can sell them for landscaping or Christmas trees...Oh what fun what fun.

MIke's got a problem with numbers, he will be ok though...it's temporary but diffently dillusional

Thanks, that makes sense...

Ok I have to know.. I can't stand it anymore....... What is a Twilli Tip?????? I can't find it on "The Google" so you guys need to take a pic and show me what this beast truely is....

Well we're doing it this year more then ever, with all the problems with veggies coming in from Overseas and from the great ole USA, we're going to put in the biggest Garden we've ever had. The BOSS has the garden already growing downstairs in the basement, right near to the New Big Jon Riggers waiting to be installed in th boat. She even bought a new Rototiller to go behind her Diesel Kubota Tractor, you heard me, it's HER tractor and she Loves it, she even Mowes the lawn too.......How good do I have hey? I fully intend to help her in this Garden too, can't wait to taste those Tomatoes with a fresh catch of salmo or Steelies.... Well Guys, are you going to put in a Garden this year, or is this standard proceedure for you as Well???? Speak out let me know your skills in the dirt....:grin:

I also thought about that as well.....Can't really tell it's not clear enough but a very well done Video.....I can't wait to use our Mini DVD recorder.

Sean Why Why WHy do you live up there, in the Great north, I swear... your summers are so short.. Mike Congrats on getting the boat out of storage, got mine out last weekend and just installed 16new LED's in the engine compartment (for Looks and Light) next is two new holes for new rod holders, I've studied their positioning, and ready to wait another week for good weather.

MIke, Take another look at this Video, did this salmon have VHS, on the side that was showing in the net.. take a long look. I don't know looks like a leision to me..

Thanks Jim, I'm going tot ake that advice on the wire rods, I have two of them now, will I still need to yank the pole a little bit to unset the diver? I'm thinking I'll have to do that..

Loadmaster Trailers out of Ohio Custom made the trailer for me, I called them the day it happened, and they are working up a price on a whole axle assembly or just the axle, using my components ie brakes springs etc. I can't believe we're getting sleet here right now, it's snowing as well over here, but I knew we'd get hit with this storm.. just a matter of time....

Yes they are expensive it's part of the axle, but we don't think its going to have to be replaced. I'll know later this week, they are 7000 pound axles each. It's really hard on them pulling it out of the rampm the front axle takes all the weight, it's not a pretty sight. Again not the end of the world but certainly not an expected expense.

yep I worte it right, was backing into the driveway and noticed the Fromt tire on the triple axle trailer, was actually turning...problem is it's not a turning axle... I was able to get it in the driveway and backed up near My barn, took off the rim as the bearing in the front dropped out and was destroyed.... What a fix this is going to be, I will have my Heavy equipment Mechanic coming up to assess the damage and if I need a new Axle, the spindle is a little torn up.....Prey for me guys. Robert

My Dog House is the Boat..... he he he That's why she goes to the dog house with me, and we have a lot of fun in that Dog house......but now sean he's single, that's why his dog house is so "Nasty"....not to mention cold up thrrr.... in da UP
