There I was, sitting on the Group W bench


BLACKJACK

Recommended Posts

last night, I had just got back from a long hike, looking for sheds. I was having a beer, watching my fish tank, contemplating life, but what comes crawling across my hand but a wood tick!! And it was one of the small deer ticks about the size of a pin head!!!

Moral of the story is that the wood ticks are out, check yourself and your dogs. I picked two off my lab last week also. I left my clothes in the garage and took a shower before I went to bed.

I did find one shed in my hike, and the great part is that my lab found it and came 'dancing up to me' with it. I praised her heavily and we went hunting more. I've been working with her on shed hunting, retrieving some sheds before we go for a hike. She also came back with a bird breastbone and a deer shoulder blade, I praised her on those too, I figure any 'bone' that she brings back is good, she’s getting the idea.

For those of you wondering what the 'Group W' bench is, Google 'Alice's Restaurant'. smile

and there I was with the mother rapers and father rapers when they asked me what I got busted for. Not to change the topic but, that is a funny funny classic!!!!! I've wondered what it would be like to live in the steeple of a church. But, I don't have enough friends that would help me haul out the trash. I had tears comin outta my eyes while I was reading this string. Besides, it took me back to my youthful days of indescretions. LOL....LOL. Jumping up and down yelling KILL...KILL....KILL. You're our man!!!!!

I am crossing my fingers and hoping that NOBODY has to google search what that is all about!

Because I cannot tell a lie... I put that envelope beneath that garbage.

I used to listen to it every Thanksgiving on KQ, but I am not sure if they even do it anymore. Definately a classic.

    • 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?
