    Rainbow Trout Metal Sculpture

    This sculpture is heading to Mineral Lake Lions Club for their raffle to support "Youth in Leadership" scholarship. My friend Bill would be very happy with this decision. I am guessing if you want a shot at this sculpture you will need to attend 2027 Mineral Lakes Opening Day Derby and purchase...

    Lil Lk of fun

    Bambooflyguy and I fished it a couple years ago chucking dries into hungry mouths into the pitch dark. Used Steves head lights to pack up our gear when the homeowner just showed up quietly walking up next to the truck. He asked us what were we doing? Steve quickly defused the moment and then we...

    What have you done for your boat lately?

    My goodness, round trip to Mayfield Lake last year and they choose to blow up a year later at your home. Brian, Drop everything right now and please go purchase a Powerball ticket and a Lotto ticket. Stop at the casino on the way home and place a $1.00 bet on anything. Simply Amazing.

    What have you done for your boat lately?

    Wow Brian, how lucky can you get. I am amazed those bearings exploded when you could see home. Usually, they explode halfway into a trip of a lifetime. Drive anywhere and you see trailer skeletal remains shoved onto the right of ways. Costly repair but replacing the axle and hubs is a solid...

    Horsefly Strain Rainbow

    Thanks for sharing. Rowley always makes it look so easy. Seems like I aways something to learn from his videos. Like fish early spring to avoid those bothersome 4 engine mosquitoes commonly found in the Caribou.
