It got hammered. My daughter’s SUV is probably totaled. Had hail come through two skylights in the house. I went to check on our old house since I still own it. Probably needs a roof. But in almost every driveway the cars have busted out windows. There’s lots of videos and photos of cars missing windows. Got the airport. The library. One of the high schools estimated that every car on campus has damage. A lot are not even drivable. Crazy! I called in a favor with a buddy that does roofing to get my kids skylights covered. He had two guys there in less than an hour. Told him I needed him to check my old house. I’m a month out already.

True. Maybe I could shoot them with a tranquilizer dart and just cut their tail off. I quit cleaning animals many years ago. Haven’t even cleaned a fish in a few years. Though I do love the taste of smallmouth. LOL. You see a bunch of squirrels around with no tails, mind yo own business.

It was definitely the seventies when I got my first Ambassador. We were fishing a farm pond and my uncle yanked my Zebco out of my hands and handed me a new rod with a 2500. He threw my Zebco up in the cattle pasture and told me I was done fishing like a girl. I was 7 or 8 so it was 1976 or 1977.

Seems like a ton of work for sixty bucks. I would have had them send me a bunch of #2 and #3 Aglias.

They are everywhere now.

Here’s another one eating on the James River. Gotta get it headed in the right direction and then down the hatch.

They mostly go after the smaller stuff but can swallow a good sized fish when they get an opportunity. Many years ago I was fly fishing for ladyfish off the beach and one wondered up and stayed close. I caught a smallish ladyfish and tossed it his way. Of course he grabbed it and ran off. Never really thought any more about it. The next morning I was headed down to the beach to try again and he was waiting for me at the end of the boardwalk. He fished with me every morning on that vacation. He never got close enough for me to touch him but my wife and kids watched one morning from the condo balcony and thought it was hilarious. They said that bird followed me around like a dog.

I’ve gone a bunch, all of it offshore. Been on huge party boats and little boats. Every single trip has been a blast. Some were better than others but that’s just fishing. Most have been out of Zeke’s Marina and we just book through them. Take a flyrod and hit the beach early. Just as it’s getting light. Tan & white #4 clouser. Sometimes you don’t even have to get your feet wet. Fish the troughs close to shore and hang on.

I thought it was a joke but I drove by today and it is really there.

Wait until you see the Stargate roundabout they are building at St. Louis street and Glenstone. There is some good coming from this 66 celebration though. They have been everywhere cleaning this place up. Now if they could find a place for the bums to go we would be in business.

I don’t care what your beef with MDC is. This is horrible and I can only hope the person(s) that is doing this doesn’t make it home. Total POS if you ask me.

Maybe someone should ask them if they have weighed in any other fish in the past two hours.

He only needed to wait 26 minutes! Poor guy just got excited and made a mistake.

The lady that owns West Bottoms Whiskey was telling me that. I haven’t tried it yet.

Yes they are very good. No they aren’t reasonably priced. But a jar goes a long ways! These were a gift from Princess #1 or I would have never tried them. But I wouldn’t be opposed to buying more when this jar is empty.

Took the week off to move. Finally prepared something in the new kitchen.

Nice to see a mess of whites from Pomme. Been a long time since I’ve seen that.

Very cool.

I’ve listened to both. Heck I’ve listened to most of their podcasts. Good stuff.

Shhhhhhhh……we weren’t going to talk about that.

Man if I could have any animal as a pet it would definitely be a bear. But that one is a little too close and too comfortable for me. Contrary to popular belief, they don’t like hugs.

Can I pet that dawg?!

Is that a chocolate suppository? Oh wait…never mind….

Nobody seems to care how their actions impact others anymore.

Be interesting to see the same video for other boat types.
