Back from the wild blue yonder folks ... I was fortune enough to see an unbelievable amount of animals.
There were an abundance of deer and plenty of bears as well.

We had just finished our breakfast and a large cinimon sow walked out of the trees only 50 yds away from our fire.. She was a large bear. She left her cubs in the trees and recovered them and move on..
We caught lots of fish. Some not much bigger than the lure we were using. But that's ok it was fun none the less. No large fish at all but lots of them.
Looking forward to going back in Sept to do some more fishing , maybe a little hunting and repairing our friends roof..

Later..

Gone fishing

In a short time I will be leaving our home in the care of our son and his lady friend. They are great kids and will do a great job.
I am going fishing /camping.

Mostly camping with some friends . Hopefully the weather will co-operate more than it has so far this weekend. The rain and myself just don't mix well.
Started my day with a great breakfast at Yummers. Then proceeded to fuel up the truck and camper. That wasn't a pleasant experience. The gas prices are getting set in place for the summer as usual . Strange how that always seems to happen.. Guess it's call making an extreme profit on the back of the consumers. Oh well enough about that . Nothing we can do about it this morning.
If the rain subsides the camping will be great. If it don't it will be great anyway.

Wish you all a great day

Hello again

Haven't been fishing for some time now. But maybe this weekend . We are going to Moorehead Lake with some friends . I'm told the fishing is fun because there are so many fish .

Giving a lot of thought to the stuff we have to take camping. If it was just me it would be a simple uncomplicated task.
However that is not the case. So I will have to load a lot more stuff in the camper.. But that's ok as I've said a weekend of fishing is a good thing. Not necessarily for the fish but nothing is perfect.

I will have to take some worms with me this time . Just so I cover all the bases. I won't bother looking for bears on this trip. For one thing there are toooo many bugs. And they make the work of dressing out an animal very uncomfortable.
Anyway that is it for today..

Later

A day of poor fishing far out weighs a good day at work


What can be better than making love to a senuous affectionate woman ???? Nothing.

However catching a bunch of fish ,where there are no other boats on the lake and the fishing is absolutely unbeatable is right up there.
I have been fortunate enough in the past while to hit a couple of lakes where that actually took place. The fishing I mean.
We were using a gradual sinking fly line with 9 ft of no. 5 leader trolling with a electric motor.
We manage to get the fishing done before the lake turned..
Although the water was higher than usual the fishing was great..
