    Just finished emptying out the $30,000 fish house hauler (F-150 per Mike W.) and found some interesting things. The back end of the truck doesn’t get cleaned from the time we go to Canada fishing in Sept till the end of ice fishing so there are always mystery things in there. Today’s find (other than the usual fish houses, poles, augers, heaters, etc.) included:
    A shriveled up potato (possibly from Canada)
    Pheasant feathers
    Deer hair
    A pretty rock found in the ground blind
    Freeze dried minnows and lutey bait
    Straightened out 1/8 oz. jig
    Empty DNA collector
    Numerouse empty and crushed beverage cans
    Onion skins and pepper peels
    Cooking grease on the end gate
    Wet roll of t.p.
    Battery tester for the FL-8
    Pout slime
    Broken screen on the topper window
    Empty pint of root beer schnapps (Brian?)
    Couple hunks of charcoal
    Dirt from Canada, Western Minn, Northern Minn, Washington Co. etc.
    and the grandson’s little football

    Ah, what treasures one can find in a truck that has not been cleaned out for 6 months. Each with their own story. As sad as it is, another cool weather season has passed and now into the hot summer months. Oh well, Sept is only 6 months away.

    Hey Putz,
    Thanks
    It’s been a real MONDAY here so far, and that helped a bunch.

    Putz,
    I thought that you were going to sell the great stuff that you found.

    That’s awesome…sounds like a time capsule on wheels! Your post kinda reminds me of an old Rodney Dangerfield, God rest his soul, joke that went like this: “Just last week I bought a used car, found my wife’s dress in the back seat”. Hope you didn’t find anything like that in there, Putz?

    I have to ask, if the “empty DNA collector” is what i think it is….

    Somehow I think a guy could get good money for some of those things on ebay.
