Fishing and (mostly) fun

  • Alberto couldn’t stop 114 inches!

    For the first trip in a while, nothing fell off the truck or the boat; no tires blew out…and no animals ran into me! I made the trip to the Stick Marsh in Florida, stayed in the basement of a house in Melbourne Beach without incident. Well, there was the tropical depression Alberto…. It only Read more

  • Mousquitos, Senkos and Deer; oh my!

    LaCrosse Wisconsin; ten and a half hours from Tennessee…sounds like a nice drive (up, never home). Fish infested waters everywhere you look, great weather expected; ice finally gone…ok.

I had fished the same spot my only other time at Guntersville; recording a mediocre limit, but still expected to see others there. Why Read more

  • 7th place trophy…….

    On March 9th, I posted a pic from the internet of my first Hobie. It was a Hobie Hustler skateboard from the 70’s, not the original I owned. It was almost the same color as the PA12 we purchased from Caney Fork Outdoors, and I had ridden it for a few summers in Tennessee. See Read more
