Hello and Welcome Mike

Yeah Buddy!! Mike

These guys are really really good. Mike Couldn't care less Mike

Ain't it the truth!! Mike

As was said water temp is all relative. Down here in the dead of winter I'll use the same stuff I use all year. Temperature stability is absolutely key. It's 51 deg now at 6:41 am, by noon it'll be 75.. I'm more worried about how the "cold" affects me. Mike

Yep Fishing isn't the only reason we live here! Mike

Yep They're on thier way!! The campground we're in is filling up fast. And with an early snowstorm in the NE it's gonna be even crazier for a lot longer. Mike

I've been holding on to him all year. Oh Well Mike

It's 82 deg on the Big O! Sorry Mike

Love that movie! ? Mike

Hit and Run Mike

11.34 10.1 8.9 8.6 7.7 Mike

We keep forgetting about the little 'ol Scum frog. Better hook up ratio than any of them. Mike

Cut the head off the Keitech when useing the 4.75 if you want to use it as a trailer. It will save you from buying the 3's just for that purpose. Before I gave away the ones I had they worked well like that. Mike

Skinny Dipper for vibration Big EZ for thump. Mike

Hello and Welcome Mike

Hello and Welcome Mike

I'll be in touch with you guys in a few weeks if you don't mind. We just pulled in for the winter and my neighbor in the campground who's bringing his boat, will be here soon and we plan on hitting that place everyday. After getting my PB in the farm last March I dream of that place every night ?? Mike

If we enjoyed what we did, I don't think any of us runs out the door screaming and hollering, give a salute, and never think about it again. We each have our reasons... For me I was at my 6yr old grandsons first little league game when my son lived in Texas. We live in Florida and when I found out when it was I told my wife we're gonna drive the 17hrs for his game. After the game was over, he came running over to me with a huge smile, his bat over his shoulders and said "Papa, you gonna be at my next game?" (which was the following weekend) I said..." No partner, Papa has to go back to work, but we'll practice everyday in your yard before we have to go" His expression completely change, he put his head down, didn't say a word, turned around and walked away. At that moment I had what they call a moment of clarity!...I knew it. I told Mrs Mike in the car, "That's it...I'm done" That was 4 years ago. Do I miss it? Sometimes, but I miss the people more than anything. When you find yourself at 5:00 in morning leaning against the kitchen sink with a cup of cold coffee in your hand saying to youself..."Ok, now what are you gonna do" it hits home a little.. And when the people I spoke to everyday for 33yrs, most of whom I hired and all of sudden don't call anymore because there is someone else taking my place..It kinda sets you back. Anyway, 6 months later we bought a motor home and been traveling and living full time in it ever since. And will continue to do so until the money runs out anyway!! So...Yes, I missed it, still do to some degree.. I was even lost for a while, but now I wish I would have done it 10 yrs ago. Mike
