Too much water. Flooded basements and washed out roads.
Of course the Delta Clearwater is open and so is the Tanana......boats are now headed up
the Goodpaster also. Lakes are still ice covered while waterfowl are gathering in the barley fields.
There's still a lot of water in hills and spruce.

Is Paxson open yet? I realize it is about a month early, but just checking.
Mark Begich, Joaquin Jackson, and Heller resistance... Three huge reasons to worry about the NRA.

Do you own both the 420 and the 470? Sold the Blue 420 last year and bought the 470 late last su mmer. Still have a 420 Vega with a 20 hp 2 stroke for fly in use. The Vega has smaller tubes and lighter than the 420 Strella.

Thats stealing ideas from air boaters with that ramp. LOL
That was a cool jump. And unlike when we did stupid [bleep] with a prop you don't have to reach back and raise the motor while you are going over stuff at the same time...
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.
