The need to want

[Ketchup]

The past 2 mornings have been beautiful. Crisp and cool for this time of year. It makes a guy feel the need to want to go fish. Havent shore fished in along time, but selling the boat last month, to upgrade, has left me with those feelings. I thought with this summer boil that we have had, that i wouldnt miss that feeling, but these last 2 mornings proved that wrong. Im sure we all, as avid fishermen go thru this, but dang.

Another Xpress but the X21 instead of the X19.  May be late summer as selling house and looking at another comes first wife says.

Ketchup.  Multitasking is the deal.  Fish Sell Buy.  Fish Sell Buy.  I get home late Wednesday.  Close on a flip house Thursday morning.  Priorities and Multitasking.  Good luck with your adventures

Sounds like you got yourself in a jam. I can't imagine being boatless for a summer or longer. Good luck.

Little further south around Bella Vista, Rogers area.  My wife is a real estate agent if you need help. I built my house 4 years ago, and with just the 3 of us, at just over 2000 sq ft 4 bed 3 bath that size works well for us. But 1700 for living alone is stretching it, but in my single days, i think my buddies would have loved that.

Well the move decision literally came the week after i sold the boat. I knew the boat would sell fast for what i had it listed at, and the first guy that looked at it bought it. The plan was to sell it and take that money and to put on the new boat right away. Guess i waited a week to long for her to tell me no. I found tge boat i want in Tx. but didnt commit fast enough.

I went 3 months last year. It was a struggle after about 8 weeks because i normally fish 3 or 4 days a week. I missed our club tourney last month, the first time missing since it started 3 years ago, and that was like taking my candy away after letting me chew on it for 10 minutes. It hurt.

Ketchup, you certainly don't let any moss grow under your feet. You hardly had an opportunity to get your boat carpet dirty. Good luck on all those new things going on. Next OAF tourney will see you joining the caravan driving up from the BV, Arkansas area.

Just make sure you have a spare area for the drop-ins.
