Post a photo a day!

This is why I love kayak fishing on the refuge. The bulls were bugling all around the lake at daybreak today. It's breeding time.

"It took me a while to realize it wasn’t just fishing, but time to step away from all the other nonsense and allow my mind to heal – to not dwell on that place. To just give it time to recuperate.” – Ray Queen, Veteran  (Photo- Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge)

Boat Pics usually mean the fishing was poor ~

 

And that certainly was the case today . . .

We had a fun day out at the seaside this week. Fishing for (non striped) European Bass we had a fantastic fun day with 72 between the 6 of us. If that was the last trip of the summer, it was a good one.

Murphy, the Golden in my avatar, passed away this summer after a great 12 years. We felt bad for our Saint Bernard only having a couple faux dogs (Yorkies) to "play" with, so we ended up adopting an even bigger Saint. They've hit it off even better than we could have imagined, and here's the happy new couple playing the laziest game of tug of war while I was cleaning the shop earlier.

Nothing spectacular here...but was picking out a backlash for a couple of mins and look what was attached...so that dead sticking is a thing.

At that age he can get away with it. If you try, well......

I'd get arrested.

This houseboat flipped over a couple of years ago due to heavy snow on the roof.

The marina dragged it into a cove and tied it off.

 

So is it structure, cover or just giant sized litter?

I'm going with irresponsible, disrespectful, selfish eye sore

Not to mention, I would imagine - illegal.

#pathetic.

3.33” of rain in the last 24 hours, almost 5 inches since Sunday, 14 degrees colder today than yesterday, and the wind blowing 14-19mph out of the east. Is 6poundbass crazy, or committed? You can see how high our lake has risen in 24 hours.

The remains of Gerald B. Raeymacker, age 21, have recently been identified. Gerald was killed near the Chosin Reservoir on December 6, 1950, when Chinese forces attacked his unit. He will be buried in his hometown, Dunkirk, New York on October 19, 2019. Honor him.
(There are still over 7200 servicemen missing from that war, the majority of those lost on the battlefields in North Korea.)

Committed - or commitable...you choose.

Been dealing with some rough seas here lately.

[12poundbass]

The dreaded ‘I got skunked’ picture. The wind destroyed us! 

 

[NHBull]

Won’t be fishing till Spring, but there are a few good ways to spend time

 

[Bluebasser86]

Nothing makes them much happier than being in the boat.

should have known better than to ask my son in law to hang this door for me while we were at the beach

Beautiful morning on the lake today, no wind and the fog was just lifting as I got there. Too bad I wasn’t in the boat though, this pic was taken from 3 sections of scaffolding up while I started my day laying stone on a chimney. Oh well, this time of year I gotta make stone while the sun shines.

Same experience for me this morning. The sun was high, and the first time in I’d say a week it wasn’t windy. As I’m dreaming of pitching a jig or finally getting my first lake smallmouth my phone rings with guys calling in sick and I see on my computer screen I have more work than I can do today. Oh well I have the weekend, oh wait severe weather Saturday and 20 degree temp drop and extremely windy Sunday. ?

Saw these guys enjoying the lake while I was finishing up work this afternoon. Probably not a Great Lakes worthy vessel, but it sure looked a lot better than what I was doing.
