In addition to the fact that they are idiots the ones that add alcohol to the mix are exceptionally dangerous. I'm not against drinking and have been known to indulge myself now and then but never when boating or driving.

Great story, its hard to believe what kids had to do back then to get an education. Its taken so for granted now days and yet so easy to get. My grandfather who has since past gave me his pencil box that he carried to school it's about a 2 inch wide by 8 inch long wooden box that had a lid that slid off long ways. If you hold it in just the right light you can still see his name written on the bottom of it. Its hard to believe in this day of throw away and replace everything that a pencil was so valuable that you carried it in a special box to keep it safe. I agree they were most certainly the greatest generation.

That's a great story, I will pass that on to my nephews and grandson.

It was really slow for me also, but I did have some success last Monday trolling a flicker shad. Don't remember the name of the flicker shad but it's almost completely silver in color. I was near Birch Branch trolling along the channels in about 30 feet of water. Caught all sizes, lots of smalls but several really nice Crappie.
