old man

since my anything that floats days i've owned an aluminum tracker,and an aluminum lund. both are fine boats but both floors rotted out after 6 and 7 years,respectivly.now i own a fiberglass champion v-hull. it rides and tows about the same as the tin boats. i only picked glass so i wouldn't have to replace another floor.just my two cents. ps;if your boat and truck payments are more than your mortgage....you might be a redneck.

it's the same old story,the state overspends and needs more money. if it was to support stocking why is there no muskie or walleye stamp? next year,i guess. if they just raised all the license fees i would just pay it and keep quiet. BUT THEY CAN"T EVEN TAX US WITHOUT WASTING MONEY. think about this...with a stamp they first have to pay someone for artwork. probably some official's relative. then they have to print them,distribute and moniter them,and collect the unused stamps at the end of the season. they will spend half of the stamp revenue on the stamp program. the trout stamp is nearly as dumb as the obesity tax on pop. i own a supermarket and now hear this; a third of the pop i sell is paid for with food stamps. when you pay for pop with food stamps you don't pay ANY taxes. so if you work all day and want a coke on the way home,ante up 18%. if you sit around all day watching maury you get free food stamp pop tax free. obesity tax or another shakedown of the working stiff? i,for one will cheat like heck on my taxes this year.

thanks and happy new year. i missed the ball drop again,then i got up at 3am 'cause i couldn't sleep. went to that photo bucket to try to post a pic and failed. i'll have the wife show me sometime when i'm in the mood to eat crow.

hi there,this looks like a good site. i fish for pike and muskies. this time of year i read and think and make plans to catch and release more and bigger muskies and pike. i will buy twenty new baits this winter and by the end of may 19 of them will be in the"never gonna throw that again" box. i live in the finger lakes area and fish around here mostly. every year i do a couple trips to the st. lawerce area and chataqua in the fall. i went to cave run last april for a week. ever notice the pike get active the same week you have to start mowing your lawn?
