Had a big red eared mud slider crawl up in the yard this morning. Called the grandkids up. They like turtles to monkey with. Last I saw they was down in the bottom. Told em to keep fingers away from the front end and the rest of their body away from the peeing end!

In about two weeks I will be heading north for the summer. Always plenty of fishing up there.

Well, we caught 80 quarts of big blue crabs Wednesday, a bunch of speckled trout and flounder on Thursday and some redfish in the surf yesterday. Kinda glad it's raining today so my sunburn can rest.

I did it last weekend. Caught some Kokanee salmon.
I'm going again next weekend. We can talk more after that. Might even have some photos.

You got your priorities all wrong Tracy! I've had 14 yards of dirt on the front lawn getting rained on for two weeks...

On June 9th I will officially be homeless (I sold my house) for the second time in my life. I'm going to spend two months living on the street. Well ... Not exactly on the street but on the highways and in the forests and in campgrounds living in my tent. I'M GOING FISHING IN THE WESTERN UNITED STATES FOR TWO MONTHS !!! BTW, I'm a real man that don't need no house to live in.

My wife watched one too many home improvement shows. The word "dated" is bad news if you've lived in the same house for 25 years. They're starting tomorrow on gutting and redoing the bathrooms. Nothing wrong with them but they're "dated". Not all bad. We're leaving tomorrow for a cabin in the mountains in an area with a lot of lakes. The boat is hitched.

If I had the ocean as close as you do Pat, I would of been fishing too.
So instead me and my young son who came out, with the grandkids, were fishing in the bathrooms, 3 new faucets and one new commode installed.
All day job for us. Trips to the store take time.
Will do my fishing this summer in SW Colorado. That and the ocean are where to fish.

Haven't made it out on the lakes yet but I have been catching and releasing some catfish in the nearby river.
I'm thinking of keeping some and smoking them.

The Walleyes are really starting to bite on Erie. A lot of my friends are boxing out in a couple of hours with 2 to 6# fish. We limited out in 2.5 hours, 12 nice fish (this cooler is 30" long inside)... When the summer bite starts (late June, early July) we get quite a few fish that you have to bend to get in that cooler (up to 32+", 10 to 13#) ! ![[Linked Image]](http://pic90.picturetrail.com/VOL2250/777751/24581874/412510240.jpg) We don't fish the weekends, (to much "Combat Fishing") will be back out Monday night...

Absolutely!
I haven't done much fishing this year. Went out for halibut a couple weeks ago. Put one small butt in the boat and got blown off the water.
Ling is still open. Might try to get out mid week.

I love blue crab. Everybody squeals about Dungeness crab out here, and they are great, but nothing like a big azz blue crab boil and cold beer!
