My mom used to beat me senseless at least that's how I remembered it lol. Her class ring and hair brush I feared both lol. My dad has never laid a finger on me in 26 years I don't even remember him yelling at me granted my mom raised me and I only seen my dad on weekends but I had more respect for my dad then my mom behaved better for him also. My mother and I had this discussion last night actually about which of her three kids was the best behaved me or my two sisters she said me hands down which is scary cuz I was a devil child from like 15-20 lol. The topic came up when she made the comment about how good my boys are and I said they get it from me. Ill be damned if my kids grow up to be brats one thing I'm happy about having custody because there mother gave in and never disciplined or said no to either kid about a month of living with me they changed now they are little sweet hearts that love to hunt and fish an last night got them hooked on going to the races.

The kids I seen doing this were probably 15ish. It's definitely a lot to do with parenting my nephew for instance had been caught red handed doing wrong and his mother just says "oh it's ok" he had never been punished for anything. I drill into both my boys to say please and thank you and te both do they are 4 and 2.

Nice!!! Love the color and markings on that one I haven't got one this year that wasn't kinda pale and grayish. I really need to get out to silver soon probably next weekend since I have drill all this weekend.

Nope not me not a Abu rod and reel............

Manns 1 minus I buy them every chance I get I don't see em often in stores around here though

Called the dec officer again and got voicemail again.

You just squeeze into your wife's don't you

Iv always gone commando since like the 10th grade the only time I don't is when I'm wearing gym shorts. My moped is I drink them new bud light line straw-ber-rita things they are sooooo good so what they are strawberry flavored beer. They are small they fit in your pocket nicely and it's 2 beers in the one small can perfect for loading your pockets and going bull head fishing....

My oldest will be 4 Tuesday he is normally good he has his moments but for the most part he is a little angel. My youngest will be 2 in August he's the one that's the most trouble. Iv had custody of them since February and every one has said how much better behaved they are granted they do get a little out of control at times but all kids do.

That's why I like UNOH it's about 10-15 grand cheaper and has more hands on focused training with smaller classes UTI is to big and got to many big company's pushing products and cost a small fortune UTI is upwards of 30-35,000 for the most basic 1 year course. A lot of it is what you put into it it's not like a regular school and your parents aren't there to push you or hold your hand not that they are in a regular college but I think there is more to keep ya in line with your grades like repeating classes and such. I graduated from Baran with a 3.98 GPA and only missed 1 day the whole year because of court and I doubled up I took auto body and auto tech so I learned both sides each a year long but did them at the same time morning classes for auto tech night classes for auto body.

Are you saying you don't like yoga pants or mini skirts!?!? Yoga pants have got to be one of the greatest inventions EVER now if your talking bout farm animals wearing such items then yes I agree.

Very good advice!!! I went to school at Baran institute of technology which has since been bought out by Lincoln Tech. It's the same as UTI, Wyotech and UNOH. I stuck with it for about 8 years I turned wrenches for Nissan then a local shop that actually makes most dealerships look small he has such a large customer base and I worked on everything there gas, diesel, electric, heavy equipment you name it. I'm with nitro freak if you decide to stay in the field get away from Midas go to school I'd suggest UNOH iv been to all of them when I was teaching in a diesel class for the past 4 years and UNOH is best hands down in my opinion. Once you go to school keep up your grades and attendance attendance is VERY VERY VERY important and try and get picked up by one of te specialty schools like VW or BMW ect. From there get into their diesel programs. I was offered BMW, Volvo, VW when I was in school I turned em all down and a kid I graduated HS with took the Volvo offer he since has been working for Volvo since then and I think about 3 years ago they sent him to Germany to learn some Porsche systems the kid is 26 and works on Porsches every day. Yeah I kick my self in the ass everyday for not sticking with it and specializing like he did.

That's why the guy last week that I seen keep that big smallie I mean it was nice it was bigger then the 4-12# fatty I got last month. Yes it was out of season but it was hooked bad bled all over he tried to release it un harmed but it went belly up motionless so he got it back in and took it home to eat. Kids in general as of lately just blow my mind my nephew for one does. He doesn't mutilate fish but some of the stuff he does and says and with out a care in the world.

He was good he normally is its the little one thats been a nightmare lol. He was picking up his game soon as he heard the water turn off. He climbed on me in the recliner and was out like a light 5 minutes later. My youngest is almost two and starting the temper tantrums and terrible two crap he woke up at 1230 last night wanting to watch tv I got him to lay in bed till 2 still wide awake but at least in bed then he got up tugged on my arm to get up and get him milk so I did then he tried to get me to the living room and I put him in bed and he screamed and threw a fit cried and cried and cried I'm kinda glad I got rained out at work today cuz I'm exhausted.

Right now I'm an apprentice I'm a commercial roofing union but I'm pretty sure I'm gonna find some thing else probably fall back on what I actually went to college for and go back to turning wrenches.

I'm only 26 and notice same thing I never acted or said the stuff kids say today I sure as hell never ran my mouth to a stranger I the water or any where. This spot where the kids were is where iv been fishing since I was in diapers I know every rock, stick and hole in that water I see kids there every time I go now and 9/10 times they are being loud and rowdy trashing the place. Ill be calling the officer again tomorrow on lunch to see if anything had been done. If at the very least let him know I see these kids there often so he could easily swing by on his way home some days and probably catch them. I know the officer have for a good 15 years probably he busted me when I was 11 for snagging carp I guess I was a bad kid to lol I didn't mutilate them I always tossed em back I remember it like yesterday he took me home to my mom and explained why and then talked fishing I see him a few times a year usually checking licenses or in town off duty.

I was out on the kayak tonight when I was on my way back in there were some kids maybe 15-17years old fishing on the wall behind the library in town. Now I could hear these kids yelling and hollering probably a good 1/2 mile back in the creek where I was. As I got closer I could see a pile of dead fish on the grass. Now I don't care if ya keep fish if they are in season but what I seen next floored me I wanted to paddle over and kick there little *****. First the one asks me what iv been catching and I told him and he gets all cocky shows me a branch with line tied to it and says that's what he has to fish with and he can out fish me as he's saying this he catches a small bass maybe 8" and he yanks it out of the water in one motion and slams it on the cement. After he does this his buddy takes it off and spikes it on the cement wall like its a football they all laugh and joke about its guts coming out and tossed it on the pile. I was livid I said some choice words and they said some back at me and I paddled over to my truck and called the DEC tip line and reported them. The dispatcher gave me the local officers number to call him directly. I called the guy he lives just outside of town a few miles but it went right to voicemail I left him message with my name and number and told him what they were doing and gave a description of the kids. I haven't heard anything back from him but after I got my dinner I drove by again and the kids were walking out no fish in hand and looked like the pile was still on the bank. They probably are gonna get away with it but hopefully the dec will patrol more in te area it's been packed with bucket fisherman more then iv ever seen and I'm not saying they all keep fish out of season but iv seen a few do it one kept a nice smallmouth the other day but I didn't say anything I watch him try and release it but it was gut hooked bad and died and he said he'd take his chances taking it home and eating it rather then letting it waste.

Both my boys are spitting images of me according to everyone else I don't see it other then they both love the outdoors and have a knack for turning wrenches always giving there little tricycles tune ups lol. But that look I just got I did recognize. I was trying to get him to look at me and acknowledge that after I got out of the shower it was his bed time and he only had a few minutes to play his new memory game. I had to say it 4 times an that fourth time he looks at me and rolled his eyes and said "yeah okay daddy" lol

My soon to be 4 year old son just gave me the same "yeah right what ever you say I'm gonna do what I want" look iv given my mom and ex wife for years. Ya know the raise the eyebrow roll the eyes lol little brat.

Hey that kayak looks familiar!!!! Lol I have JF's old kayak now and I have it set up the same way minus one rod holder on the front. I carry 6 rods right now but with grass and Lilly pads starting to emerge on the surface I'm gonna be adding a frog rod so 7 rods and 9 rod holders.

The first few pics with the bass and pike from the kayak and the small mouth with the sore on its side that is Johnson's creek in Orleans county in lyndonville the walleye and white bass with the other smallies is oak orchard creek between lake Alice and glennwood lake in medina at the power plant.

Pretty good I did egg and a huge squeeze of honey mixed that up then a sleeve of ritz crackers crushed up and pan fried it in light oil.

I have it on one rod and like it so far no issues yet I tie a palomer with it

Yup that's a army buddy that I also went to high school with we had a double just different species he hooked up seconds after I did. And yup it's a pike he was hammering pike like crazy on a UL ugly stick with 4# test and rebel weecraw crank bait

I never caught one before today and I got it out of a river iv been fishing for 20+ years. I wanna start getting more of them it put up a good fight. Idk if its big idk how big they get but it was pretty good sized I think
