I'm still waiting for him to pick me up for me ride to the sports show, but I see he's been busy discussing the merits of what a good chiropractor can do. :P

I need to go over there and look but I'm nervous to change the channel from here.  I posted a great Eddy Haskell and kind one yesterday over in the Homeopathy forum.  A little LL love to calm things down.

that walleye I probably caught 3-4 years ago on my dads lake.  I was alone but wanted to get a photo so I put it in the live well cooler and I was right near the dock so I went to get my then 82 or so year old dad to take that photo.  He used a walker and was bad in a parking lot let alone uneven ground and he had to walk towards the dock so I could keep the fish in the water as long as possible.  He was a trooper though and helped me out.

My dad used a 110 camera for the past 15 or so years until they quit making them.  He thought they were awesome.  Before I took the fish out I showed him how to use my iPhone and we practiced on a tree.  He kept putting the phone up to his eye like it was a camera, I couldn't get him to look at the screen.  Finally I grabbed the fish and told him to start taking pictures.  He looked like a deranged man.  He had the phone up to his eye and had his mouth open and kept yelling at me, "it isn't working!!!"  I finally released the fish, I was laughing so hard I couldn't take it any more.

I grabbed the phone from him and I'm not kidding he took like 20 photos accidentally and a video somehow.  Photo 1-19 were the ground, the sky, his thumb, a tree, the lake, the dock, the boat...I was getting nervous.  The last photo was the only one with the fish in it and HE NAILED IT!!!  I'm sure I gave him a hug and I'm sure he told me later that the walleye would have tasted pretty good.  The older guys weren't afraid of keeping 29 inch walleyes.  

He drove me nuts sometimes but stuff like above makes me miss him a ton.  Happy April Uno.

I bet dotch's maid wouldn't mind a steam shot of that,  speaking of her, just got done splitting wood and could really use a rub down..:). Taking the easy way out tonight, blts and pasta salad, man is that a great combo.

This weather does stink, I have around 12 of each little jalapeños and sweat peppers around 2" tall that I would like to move outside soon but or should I say the Mrs wants out of the bay window..

I knew if I offered you'd come clean. I know you don't even have a new license yet, still working on those tires, too, aren't ya?  I've been out and about all morning, to the box lumber store, crawled way under deck and ran new sump hose, got the summer deck furniture all ready to go, been to Fleet Farm for ammo and the new soused- up verde machine, put the blowers inside, etc. I bet you've been noodling around inside all day, haven't ya?  I'm headed up to bobbers so we can whip up some supper, and look at those sweet peppers. (Not SWEAT peppers, bobber) DON'T put em out yet, Bobber, wait a week or two.....believe me. What flavor beer ya want, boober? :P

Forgot to ask LL, was that a landfill fish? :P:D

you join a Union or something?  Naw...let that one go before she could throw it in the garbage.  It still stings when I think of just the packaging job I did of that cooler.  Ugh.  Forget it... a lesser man would have murdered someone since it's a couple seasons of walleyes for most of you.  Just a weekend of work for me.  "work"

Good morning.  We got 3-4" of snow last night.  It got down to 12 degrees.  This is not going in the right direction.  I guess it is a day to do inside stuff.  AGAIN!!!   We wanted to have a fire in our woods this weekend.  Will have to rethink that maybe.  I have bacon frying and am almost coffee'd out.  I will turn on the hunting and fishing shows and get motivated to go out and start the woodburner so I have a hideout later on.  Maybe i will sit in my boat in the garage and have a brewski later on.  I have a flat screen TV out there too.  I could watch a fishing show while in the boat.  How cool is that?  

I have chicken quarters in a kettle in the frig.  Last night I dumped a jag of red wine vinegar, and good scoop of sugar and a good scoop of salt in a half a kettle of water.  Threw the chicken in and let it soak overnight.  I will do the chicken on the pellet smoker/grill later on.  I will also fill up the smoke tube for extra smoke.  Love that thing.  Really adds flavor to the smoke.  

Well I hear the bacon sizzling and the wife hasn't made a move to flip it so I guess I am appointed to do it.  Great story LL.

    • Sorry to hear that Duff. Will give my GSP's an extra scratch behind the ear for you guys today
    • Aw, man, sorry to hear that.  Shed some tears and remember her well.  They all take a piece of our hearts with them; some more than others.
    • yes sorry for your loss..  our dogs are always special...
    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
