WELL MY OLD BUDDY IS FINALLY GONE... I don't know what exactly he died of but surmise it was his diabetes....Of  course his wife never notified me of his passing and I'm really mad about that.

  Oh well  DOUG  had a great life filled with fishing and messing around .... he always owned a boat and we went many places fishing.

 Down to Olney Illinois for one and we worrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre that place out .....we caught mmmmmmany gills and crappies down there over a 25 year…

TOO ALL MY LONG TIME , AND SHORT TIME BUG CUSTOMERS , NEW FLASH. My back hurts so bad now can't sit in the tying chair anymore. All done with making bugs for the near future and maybe for ever. Sorry just can't do it anymore and have given it a lot of thought , but I just gotta do it with lots of reservations of course. Jeffrey glad you got stocked up now start using em cause ya got plenty for a lifetime buddy .......

LOFR AND CARL DESERVE A MUCH APPRECIATED THANKS ......  WHAT ELSE CAN I SAY .

   THESE TWO GUYS made the trip a success . Not because of the fish we did or didn't catch but getting to meet everyone I've been talking to on here for a long time ... Much overdue in my estimation. Carl is a great guy and it's an honor to call him my friend and the same goes for LOFR .....

    I CAN'T POST A PIC OF LOFR , BUT THEY ARE IN MY COMPUTER AND IF YA WANT TO MEET THE GUY COME TO A RENDEZVOUS .…

NEVER FISHED OUTTA STATE THIS LATE IN THE SEASON AND NEED SOMEONE TO WISH ME LUCK WITH THE NEW BOAT AND DOUG... Neither of us get around as good as we used to and may have to try going deeper for the Redears and Gills . Going to lake Sugema , which we've both been too many times before , in the Southeast corner of the State . Leaving Monday morning and weather is supposed to be good I hope !!!!!!

  I'll miss ya all and hope to have a few pics when we get back......

DON'T KNOW if anyone else has noticed this happening or not so here we go.

While I was talking to member Ray Ditzenberger on the phone today we eventually got to the good ole days of summer.

When I was a kid growing up I remember July's and August weather as brutally hot and no wind . Couldn't catch a breeze for anything to cool us down . We'd just go swimming in the local pool to cool off in the dog days of summer. That was the early to mid 60's . He recalls the same thing and I…
