"HK" wrote in message Been out boating lately, Quacky? What was the water temp? Were you fishing? Got anything on-topic to post? As a matter of fact I was crappie fishing a couple of days ago. Not on my boat though. I keep my Lund Pro-V/200HP Mercury Optimax up near Kenora, Ontario. I got tired of towing it all the way up there from Florida each summer and then bringing it back in the fall. I'd much rather fish in the beautiful Canadian Shield area that down here. I don't care for salt water fishing. I do make 2 or 3 trips each year to the Stick Marsh/Farm 13 for some world class bass fishing. Fortunately I have friends with boats for the few times a year I get the yearning to fish here in Florida. Other than that I rekindled my interest in golf in 2006 and have my handicap down to 12. Hope to get into single digits again. You ought to try golf sometime. To get the handicap down requires a degree of athleticism, coordination and desire. As I rapidly approach 70, I would like to shoot my age, but I don't think that's gonna happen. I tried golf a couple of times many years ago. I liked the walking around the golf course better than the golf. My uncle, who is now 91, took up golf in his 50's and got very good at it, especially after he retired to Boca Raton and played 18 holes almost every day. He played very well until a few years ago, but his arm strength has diminished some and now shoots his age. He was a "scratch" golfer for many years. The few times I have been fishing on Canadian lakes I enjoyed it immensely, even though I only caught a few fish. About five years ago, I went ice fishing with some buddies in the Thunder Bay area, and we did ok. Man, it was cold. I do a bit of freshwater fishing over in Virginia, for smallies, on very light tackle and from a canoe. It's great fun. We alternate between ultralight spinning tackle for smallies and fly fishing gear for trout. |
