Not yet. Still home


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.

A couple more weeks until we go there. Just went and bought some serious cold weather stuff.

Ouch - Dave I would rent a pair of snowshoes and walk around town. If you decide to rent a snowmobile, be safe. They can get away from you quickly.

Doubt seriously that I will get on a couple of skinny sticks and go downhill. I’m 82 yoa, arthritic, and sometimes a foot goes in a direction that I hadn’t planned. Still devilishly handsome though.

In earlier days I’ve climbed and hunted those mountains when I was younger, stupid and bullet proof. But, that was a heckuva long time ago.

These days, I’m an observer more often than a participant in exciting, interesting, fun and/or stupid stuff. On my rural property, I’ve outsourced, firewood cutting, land clearing and tractor maintenance to son in law and grandsons.

But, I’m still in charge of a rifle/pistol ranges, fishing holes and liquor cabinet.

I always heard "Happy wife, happy life."

Nothing rhymes with husband. You may infer whatever you want from that.

Hello,

I recently purchased a property in Stuart, VA and am now the proud owner of a 1/2 acre spring fed pond. I don't know the history of the stocking of the pond, but the only thing I have caught thus far was a 12 inch large mouth bass. I have plans for homesteading and would love for the pond to be a self-sustaining well balanced fishery, or at a minimum a fun fishing hole. I found Pond Boss when searching for info on how to stock a pond.
