I flipped through all the pictures on the "auction". Figured you might try to pickup some of the harbor freight items that were priced higher than you can buy new. And now you have to get a boat as well.

I had a boat one time.
One time.
I discovered I’m not for boats. Don’t get me wrong, I like boat rides. I’m just a terrible driver. They don’t have brakes and I tend to hit things like docks.

I’m also a terrible fisherman. Cobey and I met at Roaring River State Park one Saturday.
We were standing about 10 feet apart. In 15 minutes he caught his limit of 4 trout. In the same 15 minutes I lost $80 worth of lures to rock fish and tree bass. I hate those kind of fish.

I got a few tanks of therapy Friday. Bucking off that splitter is a lot nicer than out of the pile or on the ground.

Only time I fired up the motor last two outings was to load the boat, just used the trolling motor otherwise. I am only using jigs that I have poured and bobby garland bodies so if I lose a few it's not the end of the world. Buy my hooks by the thousand. I'm not a high price lure kind of person. Equipment on the other hand can be pricey, but I have some cheaper stuff for others to use. Easier if someone drops or breaks a $25 rod rather than a $100 one. Just got to be able to be an early riser to fish with me, launched Saturday at 5:30AM.

After thought, last time I fished at Roaring river I used orange powerbait worms and a small hook and split shot. Think I only caught about 15 or 20 or so. Now I am watching for those to go on sale since I don't want to spend $6 on the pack of worms.

I got to climb the leg to look things over & grease bearings.

It doesn’t look that high but the pucker factor was pretty high. Just don’t look down.



Chow was pretty tasty today.
Steak strips, glazed carrots & cherry pie.
