If you do end up going I could meet you at the parking lot and lend you a auger if needed.

Should have a couple down the basement. Don't think I took all of them to the camps.

Yeah I figured you didn't want to stick your rod in a icy hole . Don't blame ya.

Oldest son is supposed to fish the Glades on Saturday. I haven't fished over that way for a long, long time.

Have a good rest of the week.

 Tim, How did the lake treat you today?
 

 Good Man!
 
 You have my # if you ever want someone to fish with.
 Went down at 7:50 this evening --- 9:15. Plenty of Crappie but no big slabs tonight, Biggest was 11".
 
 Stay in touch 

I hear you on the being sore part. Watched a video the other day on how to install a hitch on my Durango and could feel my body ache by just watching it but going to order one anyway.

Have a F-150 sitting in the driveway that needs some rocker panel work for inspection so will probably do that first and have more options for use.

The F-350 crew cab, 8' bed dually is in the shop getting brake lines put on and new inspection. That beast is too long and wide for me launching a boat at many of the ramps.

Have to get my butt to the park office and get a couple 2 year launch permits for canoes also.

All these boats sitting at home and camp not getting any use year after year is disturbing. Son has a large boat storage building and only has his pontoon boat in it.

My buddy Timbo and I were supposed to head to Pymy for the weekend and fish Red Cross but he had to work.

Son is moving across from Lake Arthur C.C. later this month so maybe he will take his Walleye and Bass boat out of my yard and leave me a 15' - 16' to use if wanted.

Almost went down Friday but the wind was Gustin to much on my end of the lake, rain was off and on.

Good decision to not come up today. Started raining purdy good at 11:20 am, Muddy Creek end of the lake. I don't even want to go outside and feed the bait fish.

Had 9 Crappy in the bucket last night and dumped 'em out again at the end. To lazy to clean just 9. 12 and up is time better spent.

Not sure if I will head out between rain breaks today or wait until tomorrow?

Tim the tool man! 🪛🔧🔨🛠️🪚

 I'm heading out to set minnie  traps in a minute. Gunna try again 6:30  'till ? Might throw for Toothy Critters if arms are feeling better. Tetanus shot in one arm and Phenomena shot in the other on Friday 
 
Fishing is Fun!

Hey Pork, They came out of the woodwork after dark again. Waded a spot I haven't fished in some years. They are getting bigger.

We aloud to post pictures on here? Don't want to break any rules. Not sure how much longer I can wade in the dark. Can't see for crap anymore.

18 - 1/2", still swimmin'

Nah, She was on hold. Can't kill a fish like that. She was released a few minutes ago from where she was caught.

Hard to believe a thick fat 12 - 1/2" slab looked like a dwarf laid next to it.

I dont think I’ve done Arthur in two years? Maybe three? I hit the stumps at wilhelm last spring instead. Way less crowded and way more peaceful, but it was another 45 minutes north.

So what should I do? Give Arthur another chance this spring? I’ve been considering it.

Shoot me an email at Alfera572@gmail.com

 MyWar, I'd advise you to stay away from Lake Porktown. It is offensively malodorous, synonyms: fetid, foetid, foul funky, ill sented, noisome, smelly, plain out stinking, nasty, grewsome, gross, disgusting and getting worse day by day. Trust me, STAY AWAY!! 
 
 Sorry Pork but gotta tell it the way it is. Did catch that Crappie on a piece of pork grind though.
 
 Thanks Mike, I enjoyed your posts on the Homesteading thread. Hope you have a great harvest this year.
 
 We can kiss our aszes goodbye!

  

Look Butthead, bareass on TV!

 I'm still scratching my head when you said "I'm switching to a slip bobber" when we were fishing 2' - 3' ov water. That is a 1/2 hour ov your time you will never get back you know?
