    Fish finders

    Still do a similar thing today. Around here yellow perch are a hot item in the summer. With lots of boats spread out over the lake it is hard to tell where the schools are at. My secret is to look for seagulls sitting by the boats. When folks are catching and throwing the small ones back...

    Fish finders

    In my area, I am glad that we can catch normal limits every day due to the abundance and good healthy population of our fishery and do not need to rely in hi tech, expensive electronics to reach our goals. What has happened to just fishing for fun and enjoyment ??

    I think a woman's body stops regulating its temp after menapause. Our A/C keeps our home at 71/72 degrees no matter how hot it gets outside. Yes we have been mid to upper 90's the past few days. At one point she was freezing and wrapped up in a blanket....a few hours later she was sitting in...

    Forester Boat

    Cool looking boat, but in all honesty, just another rotted fiberglass boat that belongs in the dump, way to costly to even think about repairing. Thanks for the pics, brings back memories of my youth....

    Wow.....boats are moving around here, not much for sale that is in good working condition, most is junk. Lake is full of boats when the weather permits, soon Perch season will start, lake will be packed when the bite starts.

    97 Crestliner 1650 Sportfish

    Easy enough to machine or cast from plastic materials. Check co around to see your local machine shops are doing. The machine shop I worked at before retiring, did lots of "farmer jobs" for the local community at a reduced cost to be good neighbors.

    Insurance

    Might be location....our rates here in Ohio are much better thru our homeowners than getting a separate policy, but they could be due to the companies I have dealt with. My homeowner policy even covers EPA fines and haul out costs. Less than half the cost of a separate policy based on my quotes.
