If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

Ewest, sorry for not following your suggestion about Christmas wishes for other members, I actually think that was a fantastic idea. I had begun writing some notes (you know me, it couldn't have been any normal list) but then got side tracked with the cartoon idea, then I had difficulty logging on and gave up.
Bruce, thanks for the kind thoughts. I'll keep on posting goofiness (is that a word?) as long as the powers that be allow it.
DIED, fly casting 100 feet????? Heck I'd be happy with 50 feet.

Don't forget the reason for the Season
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone!
Now get off the computer and spend some time with your in-laws!

Mae can't stop saying- Santa did come! About every 5 minutes she will look at her stocking and just say "Santa did come!"
Me eating all the milk and cookies last night after she went to bed sealed the deal for her this morning.
Pretty Fun!
Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas That's a great trip down memory lane for me, Nate. Don't worry, Christmas with the "little ones" stays great even after they aren't so little any more.

Merry Christmas and blessings to all of you! This site has been a wealth of information for me and my fledgling pond.
FYI - My wife just got me a subscription to POND BOSS mag for a stocking stuffer. Merry Christmas to me! (And to all of you!).

Where you been hiding Deb? Glad to see you back and hope to see more of you. Merry Christmas to you and a Happy New Year to all of us! We do need to count our blessings. Things can change in a heart beat.

Things can change in a heart beat. A very Merry Christmas to all--including Deb......even though you DID start this thread three years ago.

I'm planning on eventually starting a thread just dedicated to this bluegill and other really good mounts. I did tout it a little on Big Bluegill. Here it is again.  I'm building a brand new office, and this mount will be the centerpiece of my entire personal office. I've showed it to a bunch of people already and they were stunned at how realistic it was. Even my Dad, who isn't one to exaggerate how impressed he is, was really amazed at the realism. My Mom said "Is that one you caught?" And I was like "I wish".

I want to thank all of the people of Pond Boss who have helped me over the years with our lake. Second let us all not forget the men and women in the Armed Services who let us have the fortune to look on Pond Boss everyday and enjoy this freedom. Speaking form experiance it sure is lonely this time of year over there.
