[bassNspear]

glenn, we will have to meet up. We are going to run two get to gethers this year, and i better see you at at least one of them.

[glenn57]

going to one of them is a priority this year, schedule permitting, and i want it to be part of my schedule. especially if we hit maple lake, i dont think my bro-in-- law if telling me everything about maple. but yes i really am going to get to one.

[bassNspear]

there ya go, get out there and show him up

[glenn57]

bns, i did meet up with ya once. remember you were working sooooo hard at the st cloud sportsman show. or is that soon to be married life already beginning to take a toll??

[bassNspear]

lol, working hard. its hard to be a boat salesmans. Come on, give a guy a break.

[glenn57]

so are we headed anywhere special this weekend fishing? i have to attend a family function sat along with my work meeting fri nite but sunday i want to get into some sunfish for a change.

[bassNspear]

nope. I just have a bass tournament this weekend. Thats all.

[glenn57]

good luck big shooter!

[bassNspear]

didnt have a bad day, but didnt have the best day. I must have caught 25-30 bass, only 3 were 3lb.

It was great to get out on the water for 8 hrs again

[glenn57]

i hear ya on nice getting out on the water. wife and i went out sunday afternoon. kept 26 nice sunfish. couple good meals. if we could of held the boat in that wind could of had more but that was enough so we experimented looking for new spots. if the wind would behave id like to hit green lake once.

I was wondering if one of these would work to clean out the spear hole ie 2 ~ 6 inches of ice.

It would be nice if it would. I have several batteries at home and it seems like it would be a nice clean way to open up the hole.

I stopped by the local big box lumber yard this week and they had one of these on clearance.

I took the guard off the nose of the saw and then I snuck out of the house this weekend and tried it out.

I was really amazed at how well it cut ice.

I didn't use any oil in it at all. I think I am going to grind down the rakers on the chain too.

But for a little saw it did great.

You really can't cut much more than 6" of ice with it but I think for keeping the hole open it would work great.

[bassNspear]

thats what i was thinking. If you ahve your hosue on it, and the main hole cut, you should be able to use it to reopen it, thats if its not 2-3 weeks later, when it will be back to normal again.

Use the Fish Toys saw, alot less hassel!

[glenn57]

does it float?

[bassNspear]

umm, no it dont float. It sticks to the bottom!

But it can be brought back with 5 tie down straps and a large treble hook.

shape the bar like a boomerang and it will come back this one will be remembered for years and years to come
