New place

Ok guys (and girls) need a little input. My new lake house has a nice big deck on the back of the house.

I’m going to redo the steel with metal studs so I can add paneling. Build brick flower bed and repaint support. My question is the deck it self. I need to stain it, seal it or something.

What can I put down that will look good and last a long time. Remember…

Just Think

Tell me why are we using a $7.65 lura to catch a $1.16 per pound fish.

Cost per pound of a pond. Stocking cost, feed, pumps, water treatment and electrical.

The fish I catch and eat comes to $7.45 per pound. No wounder we lie about the weight.

Ok I don't have a fly rod there no way I could ever get that down. But tonight I tied a small fly on my reel. Use my small bobber as the extra weight to cast it out. Three cast three gills. Watching them hit the top of the water to get this little thing was nice. One less thing on the bucket list. Who said old dogs can't learn new tricks

Picture on site

I notice that I have over 200 pictures in my files. Does this takeup space on the site? Should I remove some?

I know most site has a limit on whats stored on the site. Some time I have to much time on my hands and start this thinking thing.

blue gill spawning
