  1. Most truly are appreciative of their sacrifice. I visited a few, including the American Cemetery in Luxembourg and Patton’s grave - these cemeteries truly are well cared for. I traced ‘Patton’s run’ while visiting, including cemeteries and memorials like the one Bastogne. There is still visible evidence and damage from that time everywhere you look….IF you are looking. Recommend if you get the opportunity. Mike
  2. Social media keeps regurgitating Bill’s fish…… Mike
  3. If an Opti you likely need to run the Opti DFI oil. Mine sips the stuff, a tank lasts quite a while. Mike
  4. $23,400 in 2025. Subject to change. For me, retired means I ain’t working no more. And The Lord willing, I ain’t….. Mike

    I think those onions might just be cabbage? Either way, they satisfy a crave. Mike
  6. X2 and the locking pliers AND some clean lineman’s pliers(medical use only) as well as first aid supplies. I have lost more than one wrestling match with a big hybrid that ended with hook(s) buried in my flesh and I just don’t like it. Hasn’t happened since I acquired those pliers, they are great. Mike
  7. I saw it on DD’s feed….awesome thing to be doing right now! Count me jelly as well…… Mike
  8. Look up some hard glide baits or Megabass suspending jerk baits……that $7 will seem more like a bargain priced item. Toys cost more I guess. Mike
  9. Took 3 new fisherman out and taught them how to spoon on LOZ yesterday evening….this is an hour and a half’s fishing with me just working and not fishing. They used snap raps and vibratos fished pretty much vertically, and wanted a fish fry so we kept a mess. Mike
  10. Have an onboard on the boat and a lithium jump start unit in the truck. They haven’t let me down. Mike
  11. I fish for striper and walleye a lot, and this time of year I fish extensively with spoons, both jigging and flutter of various sizes/configurations as well as in-line and tail spinners. They can work well and are versatile, cast a mile, and sink fast or slow depending on type. Mike
  12. I use Invisx as well, my flouro all around casting rods are spooled with either 8 or 10# - I use them for stripers, hybrids, walleye, and bass, and routinely catch large fish with no issues as long as I retie as required and replace when it is needed. I use more care when tossing 1 oz spoons, but those line sizes work well. I have one glide bait rod with 15# currently,, and again I use care when casting the bigger stuff. I use heavier braid/flouro for flipping docks/cover although I am almost always out in deep water. Mike
  13. I have an older Dyna King Barracuda that I acquired when they were reasonably priced, and I am quite happy with it. I will at times spend quite a bit of time in front of it cranking out ammo; I tend to lose a few in addition to giving to friends. Mike
  14. LOZ is low…..I’ll assume he is waiting on Fake News….😉 Mike
  15. And trout…. Mike
  16. Agree; unless you have radar, you should not be running like that in any fog. Things happen fast, and boats don’t brake. Mike
  17. We stayed at Reed Bingham on our way to and from Florida earlier this year; very nice place - second your recommendation! Mike
  18. A career should be an investment in yourself, and when one stays the course and pursues the right opportunities it pays off. Much like other investments, expectation of immediate returns is high risk, and very often ends badly. Good luck to you, gamble well. Mike
  19. Can’t catch ‘em from the couch….I’m betting you will jerk up something. Mike
  20. The majority of boat captains choose loud….it’s ridiculous listening to all the rigs on LOZ starting up and revving through transom….no, your is not bigger or you would not feel the need to do that. Mike
  21. Cold. Crisp lettuce and mayo. Mike

    What's Cooking?

    Can’t go wrong there. Sous vide is definitely the bomb….my thanks to RPS for enlightening me to that method! Mike
