Do you guys get any decent sized berries up there? We used to go pick berries at our camp in Pa., but they were tiny. You had to pick for about an hour to come up with enough for a respectable blueberry topped sundae. Dad always warned us to be careful about running into bears up in that berry patch, and sure enough, I stumbled on one sound alseep laying on it's back snoring like a chainsaw right out in the middle of the patch up there one time. 'Beat a hasty retreat and let him get his beauty rest. 'Never went in there again without a shotgun and made sure we made lots of noise while we were picking. 'Have never seen one in there since.

The best part about blueberries at Chickenbuck is the pancakes that follow!

Blackberrys are ready but I'm scared of the chiggers that live by them !
The cardboard boat captain (grandson) declared today that the vynal sea ( kitchen floor) was infested with purple squid's and spider crabs sounds kinda familiar me thinks .

Another great trip to Chickenbuck. Mama bear, bear cub & myself got there just in time for blueberry pancakes. Trimmed a little brush (not enough), rode wheelers & picked a few of the blue colored berries.
It was very relaxing as expected.
Thanks gang!

Not sure about there but around my place a little west there are twins EVERYWHERE. The closest set I saw was near #9 on my way there.
I'm guessing they will filter in soon.

Well, I sold my boat to the first guy who looked at it. Man, do they hold their value. I sold it for $3500 less than I bought it new for....after 9 seasons of use! It was a good boat though, I hope it serves him as well as it did me.
Now, trying to decide on the next boat. Will look for a used one first. Should be fun shopping!
Roos7, I need a bigger boat with the crop of kids I got coming up!

Dont say PONTOON around my wife! She wants a pontoon, no way do I want one of those dumb things! We have a good friend/neighbor who has one, that is good enough for me! My boys are developing into great little fisherman, so I want a crossover boat that leans more toward fishing.

Yes in theory, but I needed a few more ponies. The new one will be very similar, but bigger.
mmmm, blueberries. Nice pics there Dave.

Get the 1860.
You probably already know that a fish n' ski, doesn't do either very well. Get a fishing boat you can pull a tube with. You'll be happier.
I did see a pontoon at cabelas with a 300hp Merc on it last Friday night though.
