I find it easier to do the fine work with an extremely sharp non-electric fillet knife. Not a lot different than taking the silver skin off of deer meat.

Smoked lake chubs from the Great Lakes are incredibly good eating. About any place up north that sells smoked fish will have them. Hey Wrench do you get whacked with the frying pan when you show up at home with "A little chub slime on your fly"?

Sounds like fun

When they going to start bringing the lake up Wrench? Lowest I have ever seen it.

Always loved seeing the "false bottom" on the screen due to a huge shad/fish school

Random Thoughts Having plans sounds like a good idea until you have to put on clothes and leave the house. It’s weird being the same age as old people. When I was a kid I wanted to be older…this is not what I expected. It’s probably my age that tricks people into thinking I’m an adult. Marriage Counselor: Your wife says you never buy her flowers. Is that true? Him: To be honest, I never knew she sold flowers. Never sing in the shower! Singing leads to dancing, dancing leads to slipping, and slipping leads to paramedics seeing you naked. So remember…Don’t sing! My wife asked me to take her to one of those restaurants where they make the food right in front of you. So I took her to Subway and that’s how the fight started. I don’t think the therapist is supposed to say “wow,” that many times in your first session but here we are… I see people my age mountain climbing; I feel good getting my leg through my underwear without losing my balance. We can all agree that in 2015 not a single person got the answer correct to, ‘Where do you see yourself 5 years from now?’ If you can’t think of a word say “I forgot the English word for it.” That way people will think you’re bilingual instead of an idiot. I’m at a place in my life where errands are starting to count as going out. I’m at that age where my mind still thinks I’m 29, my humor suggests I’m 45, while my body mostly keeps asking if I’m sure I’m not dead yet. I’m getting tired of being part of a major historical event. I don’t always go the extra mile, but when I do it’s because I missed my exit. How many of us have looked around our family reunion and thought “Well aren’t we just two clowns short of a circus?” You don’t realize how old you are until you sit on the floor and then try to get back up. We all get heavier as we get older, because there's a lot more information in our heads. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

That is a dandy for sure.

How does on find these "top flight" surgeons?

1. When one door closes and another door opens, you may be in prison. 2. To me, "drink responsibly" means don't spill. 3. Age 60 might be the new 40, but 9:00 pm is the new midnight. 4. It's the start of a brand new day, and I'm off like a herd of turtles. 5. The older I get, the earlier it gets late. 6. When I say, "The other day," I could be referring to any time between yesterday and 15 years ago. 7. I remember being able to get up without making sound effects. 8. I had my patience tested. I'm negative. 9. Remember, if you lose a sock in the dryer, it comes back as a Tupperware lid that doesn't fit any of your containers. 10. If you're sitting in public and a stranger takes the seat next to you, just stare straight ahead and say, "Did you bring the money?" 11. When you ask me what I am doing today, and I say "nothing," it does not mean I am free. It means I am doing nothing. 12. I run like the winded. 13. I hate when a couple argues in public, and I missed the beginning and don't know whose side I'm on. 14. When someone asks what I did over the weekend, I squint and ask, "Why, what did you hear?" 15. I don't mean to interrupt people. I just randomly remember things and get really excited. 16. Don't bother walking a mile in my shoes. That would be boring. Spend 30 seconds in my head. That'll really freak you out.

While driving through the neighborhood I noticed more driveways that were not shoveled out than those that were. Close to 70% not shoveled. A lot of these younger folks don't take much pride in their property and would rather walk in the snow to access their vehicles.

Bought from them several times.

Great news on the new/improved knee Bill. Looks like my wife will have to go that route. For you knee replacement folks, will she be able to run again on the new knee?

Bass Pro rarely has their sale items in stock. Wonder if they got a deal on a bad run of line from the manufacturer. Really surprised Johnnyboy hasn't bought Tackle Warehouse and ruined it as well.

Found some fly fishing items as well as some old mono spools.

Going through old tackle boxes and ran across some interesting stuff.

Have 2 Planos and an Old Pal. Anyone want them or I'm putting in the trash. PM me. I'm in the KC area.

Still have this motor and all the extras.

This one small enough

I'm going to go crawl in my freezer and warm up.

This entire distribution thing is a bunch of crap. My soon to be 92 year old mother is traveling across the State to get her first shot today. Nothing available on the eastside so she is coming west. Frustrated beyond belief that she has to go through a trip in this weather.

Innovative means more things to fail. Also means expensive.

I'd have to look under the ice at Lake Jacomo to see any dead or dying shad.

LOL. That started before 60. My Dad told me I'd regret all the sports I played when I got older. I don't regret the sports, but sure don't like all the aches and pains. Of course jumping off roofs, falling out of trees, falling off the RR bridge over the Little Piney and other mishaps sure haven't been kind to my neck and lower back.

Turned the big 60 in September. Will definitely go that route.

How much cleaning has to be done prior to the primer Wrench?
