ray, i have read most of your posts and find you most likely the funniest person on here. nice deer last year by the way, the woods are safe again! i plan on casting equal hours as trolling this year and my boat did 3 casting and 4 on trolling for the opener, almost equal #'s. i am the poster child for the a.d.d. fisherman. yes old man i find trolling at 2.5mph boring. speed it up to 5mph and on short lines (like 10 feet back) and we are talking a differant game imo. i cast mostly at night and troll mostly during the day, always have been like that. ray- you get to waneta and if i am there you don't need to worry about lures, i could even take you out and share my boat w/ you for awhile saturday if you are feeling the urge but don't bring "SLIMEY" with you? i love having a good time and laughing and i think you could make me laugh once or twice w/ you jokes.
