It is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO      dry here we have not seen a good rain in weeks and nothing in sight. Wind has been really gusty too other than that  weather has been nice, not too hot and plenty of sun.   I have been working hard to get stuff done in the month I got left.   Got the boat out today and got it started and cleaned up so maybe a few times out before.  Started a new med and seems to be helping with the burning feeling.  
Nice gills HT  they look tasty. 
 
 

Great bucket of gills Tuna you are for sure a fishing fool! Spent all weekend finishing a friends front porch then he tells me het bought a playground for his kids and would like some help setting it up. Tells me a construction guy said it took him 9 hours, well I build everything for a living and if I couldn't do it in under 9 hours I would hang up my toolbelt and quit my job. Took us 11.5 hours and let me say we set fire to the whole herb garden.....I need to fish more and stop working so hard, on other peoples projects

Here comes some T storms and they look NASTY.

Here too John, Luckily  at the farm we have an old well that will run the hose for about 15 minutes and then you have to let it sit for a few hours.   It's enough to get stuff watered a bit and not use the house well.   Here at my house we have a decent well, but I am still careful about watering.     
 
PS It is ABSOLUTELY POURING right now.

Had a nasty light show & gully washer just before dark. It passed quick but strange thing was an hr later our power buzzed off/ on.. Bummer, it killed my computer for the next 3 days which was getting some phat tunes . Guess I'm going to have to suffer through the 10's of thousands of CDs lying around ..

For me the weather has been great here. The fishing non existing and the work plenty ..

It has rained a little, especially around us.  It is really windy here today.   Looking to get out this weekend.

Good rain here the last 24 hours,  garden is starting to take off

Well so much for fishing on the ausable this weekend. Its blown out and a flood watch has been issued. We do have a back up plan in place for a friend to bring his boat and maybe fish lake placid for lakers and trout or some other small lakes in the area.
This brother just can't catch a break lately

Yup they did. We will still have fun regardless . Rob S should be on the road now with his family ( who was in the snow with us last year) and I am stuck doing business until 3:00. The company tried to get me to do a conference call meeting at 3:30 and I said HELL NO !!! My phone is off at 3:00

We fished moose pond in Bloomingdale (!near saranc ) today due to the blow out of the river . It was windy and cool so no bug issues on the water.
When we got back to launch at noon the wind died and the black flies were atrocious blood sucking vampires .
As always that area is more then the lake placid/ ausable area due to the tourist and preventive ( dose the water ) they do.
As a whole in the adk's right now , Black flies are peak

HT- How was the Saranac along the River Rd?  I love that stretch from the canoe ramp downstream.  
 

Well I know it's an off topic but thought it might catch the Ct. Resident of rg3 ( if he still is rg3 ) or any other locals in that area.
I became an instant fan of Lukas Nelson and POTR ( promise of the real ) last fall and was dying to see him come back this way again. Well unlucky me , he is and within 4 miles from my house . The unlucky part is I won't be in NYS at the time. So to make this short story long, I did a tour search and the next thing around before he heads back home out west was a place called Arch Street Tavern in downtown Hartford . It's a very small but historic bar and tickets were $10.00. How could I go wrong.

Now to the point . Has anybody ever been there ? Is it a dive bar per say ? I would think not because the Hartford jazz band and orchestra frequents it often.
Is there any other hotel besides the $200.00 a night Marriott within walking distance , they play from 10-1 am so driving is out of the question.

Finally, it's hot as heck out and the pool is wet

Lots of heavy rain and boomers last night.   
 
OT for me too:   I still have not got my tax refund back yet.   2 weeks ago Friday it showed up on their site as processing  and that is what it still says..  I know I sent it in on 4/14 but come on, I send it in that late every year.  Have never had to wait this long.

Go back to the erie board if you want to post your political garbage.
This is a fishing site.

A pointedly political joke if that is what it was.
You have no standing on this board and you come in and crap on the rug.
 
Feel free to stiick around and contribute for a while then you might get away with stealing a beer from the cooler.
Peace out DUde
