It’s funny, for all the years I have fished that lake I have never done a stomach sample of a fish. But I know there are scuds in the lake.

Wax the skis…

Out in the backyard this afternoon I found these. Don’t know why the bluish tint in the photos, iPhone glitch.

I love it! I may just steal your idea…

Maybe this is overkill and maybe I’m just a little AR. But I put a reel on a rod recently that I hadn’t touched for quite a while. The memory in the line was unbelievable. It looked like little Shirley Temple curls. So that got me thinking, yeah, I know I’m in trouble now. I’m pretty much done...

So the first thing I want to know is, how did you know I have a micrometer? 😀 Along with my ongoing research, I now see it should be simple to replace the tip top. And thank you for the lesson in nomenclature. After a family get together for Sunday breakfast, I will probably remove the tip top...

I’m thinking I might just make a day of heading over to Redington on Bainbridge. Bring the rod and see what they say, hell, what else do I have to do? (MEW) IYKYK…

In high school I wanted to be an art teacher. But by my senior year that had faded and I quit before graduation. I went to work, roofing. At 125 soaking wet, I was the grunt. When snow started to fall, I quit and moved to Log Island. I got an apprenticeship in a family machine shop doing sheet...

Yep, well that settles that, congrats to the new owner…

What is the overall length of the boat and trailer? I might have room in my shop.

Here’s my half-assed way I did them. Halved, stripped seeds and ribs. Ziplocked and in the freezer…

Can I just clean and freeze them?

I got a bunch of peppers from a good friend of mine couple of days ago. The long, thin green ones have already turned red. I don’t cook that much with peppers just a little. But I want to preserve as many of these as I can. What’s the best way? I’m going to pickle some of the jalapeños. I’ve...
