Having our traditional Oyster Stew and Maidrites.

Earlier part of December got down to just above 0 a few nights and a few got out especially in the Northern part of the state. Then it started getting warmer until even at night it was above freezing and now fog some lasting all day. I’m pretty sure by mid January I’ll make it out.

The only thing in my garden that amounted to anything and it was exceptional was the asparagus. I planted beets twice and lettuce 4 times and got almost nothing due to rabbits. Found out my old electric fencer wasn’t working then I got to shooting and got 6. By then it was to late to do any good so left them to shoot this winter. Oh the black raspberries did well so a lot of work for nothing.

The only time I remove a rod tip is when it breaks off so any kind we do.

I have some minnows I caught from last November which have been on the basement floor with a regular aquarium tank 110v aerator. The water has been rarely changed with non chlorinated water used with a cap full of a stress conditioner. Didn’t feed them for a long time but once in a blue moon now give them a pinch of goldfish flakes which they really gobble up. Had one die the other day after water change but can’t remember any others croaking.
Yes I’m leaving my waxworms out in the basement instead of the refrigerater now a days with better luck.

Been quite satisfied with my ARE also.

I’ve been real happy this summer camping with my new Briggs & Stratton P2000. Will try it on the ice later. Running 1700 watts and surge 2200. Real quiet at idle and not much noise opened up.Priced $549 or less. Inverter type so cleaner electricity.

They sure look purdee and like what you plan for them them. Mine must of grew upside down with the drought we had is year.

Bought fl-18 the winter of 2005-2006. Put on a new transducer and off/on switch and one new battery. Retired the end of 2001 and gets almost daily use once it gets froze up good.

Had a set on the rear when it gets deep for years. Got a set I ordered yesterday which were on a free postage deal and gave them a try out today. Yes there was quite a difference and with better steering.

I just found an old receipt for my 6 yr. old Interstate agm battery. Was $110 then so it looks like I’m about due.

This grill cost only a few bucks at Walmart.

I like it when hooking up to the trailer or boat so I know when to stop. My 12 does it to but I hit the check button or lower down hit the off button. The ball on the hitch saved my wife damage 3 times now while she was stopped for a red light. The ones that hit her didn’t fair so well.

Maybe a couple bags of the green Morton’s salt with iron out in it will clean things up in the heater, pipes and whatever.

They can amend the date the important thing is you appear when requested. They had the fire and they had you they weren’t gonna wait around for the guy that lit it to return as long as you were part of the party. Glad the guys are paying for it. Life goes on.

Glad they’re taking care of you Bryan. Saw your post on the other site to.

I fish alone just about entirely. If I fish with somebody it would be a friend that isn’t to chatty as I just like being there for peace and quiet.

Spray on Slip Plate from a farm store. Graphite. Give it a shot each outing.

I would think if it sat in the roaster very long it it would absorb all the grease and taste like left overs but just my guess.

I got a new pair of Katoola in the mail yesterday and haven’t tried them out yet. I was going to get the Stabilicer Max but saw a post on Ice Shanty that Campmor had the Katoolas for $55. and change with free shipping so went that route. Oh and at the top of the page was a 20% off with the code number which made it come down to that price.

My Vex has a slit on it.

I didn’t really want to use the green slime but carried it for emergencies.Poked something in the sidewall and slimmed it up and drove on a side hill for a while. Thats probably 5 months ago and still holding air.

I take either 2-1lbers. or a 5lb. tank & a 1 lber. for a spare. As light as possible for an old timer. I also use to take a half dozen rods but now only 2.

Good advise and reminder. Usually when I pull and pull it ends up I forgot to flip the switch on.

I’ve got an old plastic 2 gal with old spout and mix amsoil 80:1 for ice auger, chain saw, lawn mower, leaf blower and weed wacker. Yes I hate the new ones and spill more gas than with the old ones.

Whoa Momma that a biggy.

Mighty impressive, Congratulations.

I had the same thing on a lazer mag a few years ago. Only thing I could think of was to buy a new cover which wasn’t to cheap but kept me fishin.

I’ve gotr getta grips but still looking for better. Had the yak trax and were great for running in the house and driving but didn’t like them after doing the splits once to often.

Thats horrible. Bless the little one Lord and give her family strength.
