NoLuck Posted April 15, 2012 Posted April 15, 2012 Looks pretty quiet around here. I think the price of travel has put a big damper on a lot of folks this year. I know I won't be able to be down much this summer because I'll be working all over gods creation again. I'm hoping this coming week the water will go down some and I can get down for a day or two. I'm in NC right now till mid-week then home for a few days off to get some financial stuff taken care of. Fun Fun.

Sucks to because I'm trying to learn new water.
brittsnbirds Posted April 16, 2012 Posted April 16, 2012 Roger that Rich. Been flirting with paying for a place to store the trailer so I don't have to pull it down. When I did the math, monthly rent and driving the truck down vs pulling it every time ends up being a wash. I just have to suck up and work more off duty. With all that OT your getting I'm suprised your complaining$$. Doesn't look like the wife and I will be going to see the kids in Idaho so I will have some time to burn. Figured out that Taney is about the same distance for me as BSSP. Will hopefully split my trips between the two. Would like to hit Monauk again but that pull between Lebanon and Licking is a bugger with the trailer. Hit me with a txt if you figure out what your schedule is. I'm hoping I can get away frequently.

NoLuck Posted April 17, 2012 Author Posted April 17, 2012 Pat, Some times the money just isn't worth the trade off. I will buy a new truck here shortly if I ever get home long enough to sell my old one and buy one. Montauk is better if you just run on down to Rolla and head south on 63. I've done it both ways from Lebanon and the 44 to 63 is just as fast and it's only about 17 miles different. From the looks of things I may not get much time off to do any fishing. This job is expected to last close to 3 years if it goes as planned. We have our equipment out on a string of barges pushed up to the gates. I guess I should buy my license to fish here so I can fish on lunch. I was supposed to be on my way home tomorrow morning but like usual that is out the window. Screwed again!! Oh well, I'll text you when I get some time.
