Out last evening, action slow. Got a few fish, but need to get them pinned down better. Fished over a structure tree. Got a couple more nice crappie. Next time I clean fish they will be in the picture.
Good morning Dave, I've checked the ships systems, and everything appears to be running normally.

Out on Saturday and got 6 crappie from 10.5 to 11.5. They were nice and fat. Two had eggs in them. Next time, going out of the box and switching from red glow Frostees to regular glow. Thought maybe some new bright glow ones may increase activity. We had a big thaw, then at least a half inch of rain. Now it is cold so there is a whole new surface on the pond.

You are doing something right to be growing those nice crappie. Did you check any for stomach contents??. If contents were mostly unrecognizable mushy stuff it was primarily zooplankton most likely Daphnia.

How'd that Hamms go down?

Hamms still use the bear in advertising? Ya know, another famous company uses a bear in their advertising. I'm just wondering if there is some sort of connection here, ya know, with the bears

Gail asked me why so many men wear caps. I told her that Crappie prefer biting on the hook of a person with hair on the head. She said, "Crappie are stupid to think that a cap is hair".

PBR is good beer too. We used to get returnable bottle cases of Bud for less than $4.00. I am showing my age here. I just like good old fashioned American beer. Although I rarely shy away from trying something that is recommended. A Corona/Lime is good with a Bloody Mary.

Actually, it's because you don't wash your hair in the morning and the cap is to cover up that social faux. No one really cares unless you really smell. Yep, been around a few ripe people Me as well Hey, whatever happened to that favorite flannel shirt that has more bug's in it than the CDC will allow? I like it, and maybe they will scratch my back.

It was definitely nasty and that's why I figured some of the guys on here lacking good taste and judgment would probably recall it. When yer very young or very old, bout anything can be adjusted to. Just look at the folks on here that tolerate me.

Mr Williamson, you are kind beyond words. Your comment may be my best Christmas present. Probably my only one.

Do they still make schlitz beer? Haven't seen that one in a while, but they are stocking Old Milwaukee now. A while back Hamms became available. Every so often I see two different guy's at the party store, or the gas station. (they are not with each other) They go in and get a half dozen 24oz. One guy get's Bud, the other Steele Reserve. They both duck when they get in their car because they are blowing into their ignition lock breathalysers. Once fired up, the guy with the SR cracks one open and takes off. Never saw the other guy do that tho. There is a billboard on 31 north with a cop giving a kid a breathalyser test and it say's "You just blew $10,000.00". (I think it says 10 grand), and they ain't kidding!

If we talking quality beers, let's not forget Blatz.
