I refer to it as working on my retirement plan. Told my wife it's an investment in our future.

A husband had just finished reading a new book entitled, "You Can Be THE Man of Your House." He stormed to his wife in the kitchen and announced, "From now on, you need to know that I am the man of this house and my word is Law. You will prepare me a gourmet meal tonight, and when I'm done eating my meal, you will serve me a scrumptious dessert.. After dinner, you are going to go upstairs with me and we will have the kind of sex that I want! Afterwards, you are going to draw me a bath so I can relax. You will wash my back and towel me dry and bring me my robe. Then, you will massage my feet and hands. Then tomorrow, guess who's going to dress me and comb my hair?" The wife replied, "My first guess would be the funeral director."

COOL

oh,,, them there could be fight'n words I'm a think'n it's to get the girls

WAIT !!! Where are the answers??

A blonde and brunette are walking down the street when they see the brunett's boyfriend leaving the flower shop with a nice flower arrangement. Great says the brunette, guess I'll spend the next week on my back with my feet stuck up in the air. Don't you have a flower pot? asked the blonde.

One night at Cheers, Cliff Clavin explained the "Buffalo Theory" to his buddy, Norm. "Well ya see, Norm, it's like this. A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine! That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers."

That's an interesting concept, a modular configuration to fit the need at the time.

Retired Civil Servant. I think I should edit this to add: Dirty Old Man in training, I hope to get my certificate by the time I'm eighty.

Dan, the lid to the rod locker does not need to be seven feet long. The lid to my rod locker is only 46" long, I have a Ranger 185; inside on the forward wall of the locker are tube ports, I think mine are three tubes wide by three row for a total of nine ports. These tube ports are flexible, smooth, thin walled, PVC tubing like you see being buried along the roadways for fiber-optic cables. The idea is the separation of the tubes in the locker wall is even to afford easy access, but the tubing bends to converge at the bow of the boat with some tubes being a little shorter than others. The tubing is under the decking where you don't see it. I'll try to get a pic tomorrow for you. Cheers, E

That would be my luck too.... Good one

Yes, you must have seen it while I was editing; some times I'll post something, read it a second time or so, and think it isn't clear or doesn't read well so I'll add to it.

Ya, I saw some up in D.C. fishing the power plant and bridge pilings. I don't usually see too many tournament anglers in D.C. due to the "no wake shore to shore" zones like from the WW bridge to buoy 6, it's just too time consuming for what little you can get. I worked the power plant for 20-30 min. and just got one good size cat.

Went out on the Mattawoman yesterday. I let the wind carry me over an area of submerged weed and came across a large catfish holding tight in the weeds. Just for fun, I put a black & blue jig with a b&b Rage Craw right in front of his face - even bumped his nose - and he wasn't interested. That was my day - Mattawoman 1, me 0. At times the water was glass smooth. I worked an eddie at Ft. Washington created by the incoming tide and all I got was a sludge ring on my boat hull. Still, it was a good day on the river.

Hi Daniel, The cooler slot could work. One thing to keep in mind as you plan your project is weight distribution throughout the boat, i.e. gas, batteries, driver, live well water, cooler, seating, anchor, tackle, etc. Start with the current unmovable items, batteries, gas, driver, then offset new items to keep the boat balanced; otherwise the boat may want to steer in one direction better than the other. Look at your plan; if the gas, batteries and driver balance each other out (and they should); you'll through yourself off balance when you fill the forward live-well, so you would need to offset that in some way. Do you have a layout of what is under the seating and deck?

Question.... How do you pronounce (='_'=) ,,, just in case we meet on a Road Trip or something. Also, if your going to have friends on the boat you need to think about a cooler, or where to put a carry-on while your running WOT. Cheers, Eric

That's one way to start a party

AT THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE A gorgeous young redhead goes into the doctor's office and said that her body hurt wherever she touched it. 'Impossible!' says the doctor.. 'Show me.' The redhead took her finger, pushed on her left shoulder and screamed, then she pushed her elbow and screamed even more. She pushed her knee and screamed; likewise she pushed her ankle and screamed. Everywhere she touched made her scream. The doctor said, 'You're not really a redhead, are you? 'Well, no' she said, 'I'm actually a blonde.' 'I thought so,' the doctor said, 'Your finger is broken.'

.........."No, I'm here to get my nails clipped"

Good summation, worth printing a copy for your tackle box. This also works on the Potomac and other lowland rivers in the Maryland area. Is that a real wrap or a bunch of smaller decals, got any pic's??

X2, but I don't tournament fish.

Nice job, keep it up. I like to Drop Shot deep holes on river bends, creek channels, and in & around any cover I can find. It will get you into and out of places other baits can't swin through. Years ago we use to call this "botton fishing"

Let's see.... I think I see a....... Brahma Bull with his tong sticking out...... My doctor says I'm getting better....
