    Evening all:

    Darn Ken, that is a major brain fart, and here I was hoping for some nice trout pics.!
    WOW that's a huge fine, sounds like they mean business on keeping people out until it opens in June.

    I Need to remove an old satellite dish from the roof. Better half says nope.. stay off the roof. I guess I promised at some point. I'll let my mowing guy do it. He offered, and he used to work for the roofing company I was going to call. Problem solved, wife happy. I have a long ladder, and a few new shingles left from the last re-roof. Sometimes things work out. I must be living right. I'll let her win this one, like I have a choice. :thumbsup:

    Racing season is coming up fast. I always enjoy your track picks. Best of luck to you and the team this season.

    I used Ozympic for a few months then stopped when I was going into knee surgery. I found I was doing better with changing my diet and walking. My small jeans, size 48 not small at all, are now loose everywhere. The cost of the drug was going to be more expensive than I wanted to afford. Think I will stick with diet and exercise.

    Good morning. Last day in Caseville till the end of July, sigh. Sunset last night did not disappoint .

    Good Morning Folks :hattip:
    Reading about fishing stories on here reminds me of one from my Dad when I was a young lad. I might have posted this before, but here goes.
    My Dad was going out on a party boat with a group from work. He told my Mom not to take anything out for dinner because he was bringing dinner home. As it goes, my Dad got drunk and sick and when he up chucked over the side he lost one of his false teeth plates. My Mom told me he did bring dinner home that day....he stopped at the market and bought a package of hot dogs :rofl:. A very costly trip and still no fresh fish for dinner.

    Hope everyone has a good day and be safe.

    My wife wants me to go up on the roof to fix stuff but my son won't let me.

    I must admit I am not comfortable up there, anymore. Actually, it's getting off the roof that scares me.

    Morning all:

    Beautiful morning here, calling for thunderstorms later today.
    Looked at the river level after the rain we've been getting, it's up about 9', so going there for shad or walleyes is off the table for now.

    :laughing:

    Don't feel bad, I can't remember anything these days. The Neurons in my brain are miss firing like an old 1st gen with bad spark plugs.
