Im sorry i miss understood you when you said hand controled i assumed remote controlled. My fault and i was just ribbing you a little about the motor guide minkota talk. Any way good luck with your trolling motor.

I wasnt aware of them but after meeting them tonight im definatly in. To be honest the place is gonna be great. There is still plenty to do out there but they have a good idea of whats going and the only reason the prices are set at 900 are cause there is some stuff that will not be done till the middle of the summer. And then on its definatly a work in progress and im getting in now while the prices are cheap. There 5 brothers in on it and they are major players in fish management. Regardless Im glad you posted thanks to all of you for pushing me to investigate this a little more. Im sure glad i did..

The 50 members are all they are taking so no more till someone drops out. And they said new members after this first batch will pay more.. So I'm doing it. I've blown more then 900.00 on dumber shizzy then this. So atleast I will have a premium fishing and who knows maybe a memory of a lifetime landing one of those Giants..

Thanks guys.. I'm going tonight. I have fished there as stated didn't land any of those Hogs I put pictures of. But they are like big bucks they don't get that big being stupid.. But i have to be sure they cleaned the place up and the road and ramps are accessible. But i have 9 crisp 100.00 bills in my pocket.

I'm not following what you're trying to point out.

Ok so because the company decided to make this guy part of of the management team after he knowingly possible intoxicated at the time of the incident. Is my fault? I did what I thought was the rite thing by reporting what I had heard to the company anonymously.. Now just a few post back most if not all was saying this guy should be fired and not have a job. So now I bring light to the fact not only has nothing been done about it he is on his way to be a supervisor.. Makes no sense to me at all.. But keep blaming for the company's wrong doing.

can you please elaborate I'm not familiar with them. I'm going today after work to meet with them. They own it and manage it. Thanks for your time

Kinda what I was thinking. Thanks for your input.

And what is the right way? Obviously the company has already decided the fate of this individual. And to be quit honest I'm washing my hands of the whole situation. So when the house of cards fall I'm no where around it.. I've saw some crazy shizzy go on here before like about 8 years ago they walked a machinest out for running scrap. A month later he is a supervisor.. And still is to this day. This guy is not allowed to work in any building except the one he is in because he is has been called out for not liking women so he would find reasons to fire them before they made it full time. There is a lot of shady **** that this company pulls. Hence why we as brothers stick together instead of going against the big yellow corporate giant.. But i can can assure you of this the union is full aware of of the situation and if they do go and fire this guy there will be no grievance filed and if if there is one it will make its way to tote trash can for sure.. Or be used to get others brothers jobs back..I honestly don't think K any of realize how much power and control this company has. They basically control everything in this area if they pack up and move we are talking this town and the surrounding towns would be worse then Detroit MI.. All the small business that are dependent on this company mom and pop shops. Everything revolves around this Company.. I mean everything.. I mean even the president of the United States comes here for tours. We have had 2 in the time I've worked here. Both Bush and Obama both have come and walked through the plant.

Very Very good points from everyone.. The 50 members are annual you get first dibs for the following year by putting half down in October.

Ok i know I said I wouldn't post again. But there has been a bizarre change in events.. Ok so I get called to the office which is uasly to walk someone out or they have called for a union rep.. So I go up and as I get closer I can see inside and this guy is sitting in there so automatically I assume I'm gonna be walking this guy out.. I walk in and my boss said to me have a seat now I'm pondering in my head what's going on.. Then he proceeds to tell me we have decided to make this said employee a team lead which is a non traditional spot they put people they want to eventually make bosses. Basically they are the bosses b*** till they get full promotion.. Now one of two things is either going on A. This said employee has been polishing upper brass knobs or B. They are MO ing him to this position cause he will have no union to back him up.. He will basically be company.. This way they can fire him and not have to worry about the union fighting for his job.. I'm totally baffled at this move I know this guy did come from Toyota and was a boss there but lost his job due to drinking.. But now it's making since to why that didn't drop this guy when this all happened.. I don't even know what the heck is going on around here at this point..

Can you elaborate a little more as to why you would do it.. You made some good points in the post above. The thing is the public fishing is not full of drinks by any means it has some real nice fish. It's just heavily fished cause people no there are lurkers in there.. I didn't mention this before but I've always had a hard time catching fish at the membership place. I'm just not used to fishing such clear water or just don't know what the heck I'm doing wrong... Thanks for your time.

Update just talked to the owners again. Fishing is 24/7 the season is March 1st to October 31st then waterfowl starts. But there will be ice fishing days for fishing members. They are only selling 50 fishing memberships. And the campers are allowed to fish and as of rite now there are 65 camperss. So what's your thoughts?

This is what i did i bought a bose soundlink mini. I use spotfi on my phone for music. The mini runs on bluetooth i set it anywhere on the boat turn on spotfi and have music all day and dont use much batterie at all. The most cost effective way. No wiring just plug and paly.. This thing rocks and sound crystal clear you wont be dispointe . Go to target best buy or any hwere that has one demo it and you will be shocked a speaker that small would produce sound that good. And just a FYI i am not a bose guy by any means my home audio is klipsche and denon car audio is alpine and JL. In my speed boat i wanted bass and stuff so i went with all JL audio stuff alpine head unit. http://www.cnet.com/products/bose-soundlink-mini-speaker/

I will not be answering anymore questions this is taking up way to much of my time and way to f***** up for you guys/gals to understand.. I am sorry for not making the topic more fitting for the post. The day i made this thread was mind F****** on what to do.. i thought i could get some good advice on here. Didnt think this was gonna turn into me having to defend my morel as a charcter or defend my union. When it all boils down to it the company dropped the ball not I or the union.. If this guy ends up killing someone or i end up walking him out i will update if niether happens i will not post. Thanks to all that have spook up i agree with some and disagree with even more. Have a good night and even better time fishing. Thanks Jay

have already tried when he worked directly with me i and all of us in the front of the building tried to convence him to go to medical and ask for help.. He just wont do it. Its not that we or i have swept him under the floor. Even when me and another guy were giving him rides to work. And he swore me and this other employee were outside his apartment at 3am in clown suits messing with him.. He went to work and told several people this.. At that point we were really aware of how messed up this guy was. You can lead a horse to water but you cant make him drink. A couple of us guys set him up with some good people that allowed him to stay at there house for awhile and he did sober up for 4 months or so. But they were christians and he didnt like the rules they had. So he moved back out on his own and got a apartment things started going down hill fast.. Then he got RIF out of my area cause the company was letting go of all the suplamentals and were taking union guys and put them into there jobs. Just really not much i can do further but kidnapping the 42 year old and taking him to rehab.. I really cant explain everything in detail i would be typing all night. Just no we didnt just toss this guy under the buss. And the company failed when they should of done the proper tests when the incedent happended but since no ne was hurt and it wasnt that big of a deal to them. For some reason they just ingnored it. Like i said to them a near miss is not as inportant as if someone actuallly gets hurt.
