  1. The lack of remembrance/coverage is saddening. We have an entire generation of folks that were not alive when we were attacked. Let us not forget the soldiers we lost last year when Talibanistan was evacuated, ending the 20 year war. Do not forget the Americans that may still be there.
  2. Rock River? Certainly aint the Fox Eric won biggest fish in the 3-5 year old category
  3. If you've had Beam, Makers, or Canadian Club, than you've had Japanese whiskey. Suntory owns those distilleries as well as others.
  4. They are very aggressive during nesting season. I've been attacked more than once because I was fishing too close.
  5. An heron is a big bird to even attempt to release. I've learned to reel very fast once they spot the topwater. I've rescued numerous birds when fishing. Not from me catching them. Most had either been tangled in fishing line or fallen out of nests. Earlier this year I had the chance to rescue a red winged blackbird, from fishing line, with the help of my grandson. I'm glad he got to see it and help. I'm trying to instill in his head that we kill nothing unless we are going to eat it...and even though papa hates red winged blackbirds, they still deserve to live...and papa hates red winged blackbirds.
  6. @A-Jay you would have been penalized for that release.
  7. Herons love topwater in these parts. Wifey was in the boat one day and saw a lone seagull hovering above us. She decided to feed it a Dorito against my advice. Not 30 seconds after she threw the Dorito in the water there were 100 seagulls swarming the boat.
  8. Ain't gonna happen in FL
  9. Was there a tournament going on that he might have been participating in? Tournaments have specific rules as to how close you can fish to a competitor. He might have thought you were a competitor.
  10. Time on the water. No more, no less.
  11. Google trout magnet and crappie magnet. 1/64oz jig under a rocket bobber for gills and crappies
  12. Biggest fish in the 3-5yo category
  13. I think it was less time than that.
  14. No cash bail in IL starts Jan 1st.
  15. Best show ever
  16. Career ending injury here. Tore my rhomboid and trapezoid muscles off my shoulder blade. Happened 10 years ago. Fortunately, I'm still in the industry working in a different capacity. Had I not stumbled on the doctor(on a fluke) that discovered the affliction and pioneered the surgery, I'd have put a bullet in my head a long time ago. Still suffer from pain, discomfort, and dexterity issues daily but, not to the extent it was prior to my 3rd surgery.
  17. Yes and no. Violent crimes are merely a symptom of a drugs and alcohol problem which are, in most cases, merely a symptom of a much deeper rooted breakdown of society problem. How do we become a moral society again? The first step is to stop promoting immoral behavior as normal. The road to hell is paved with good intentions. The demise of the nuclear family began in the 1930's and got a boost in the 1960's. If we start changing now, maybe things will be improved by 2122
  18. Don't know if you're old enough to remember paper graphs. 2D really hasn't changed much. Platform shoes with the goldfish in them?
  19. I don't think any Megadeth album is good. Really "Hello me it's me again" as a lyric LOL The last time I enjoyed them was the day I saw them. It was Savatage/Megadeth/Dio ticket. The one band I won't turn off is Black Sabbath. First album I ever bought(maybe stole, I don't remember) was Paranoid. I listen to all sorts of stuff now. I get my 5yo grandson in the truck and we have to listen to "Rock and Roll!" His idea of rock and roll is Pantera which is fine with me. Picture a 5yo playing air guitar in his car seat. He's the hippie kid and I'm the old bald guy
  20. It ain't no big thing...
  21. You're not missing anything with deak. Trust me...LOL
  22. Electrolysis on the trolling motor? Where? Everything external on the motors is composite. Did you call Minn Kota? If not, that's where I would start.
