    Spoon, shell,N stuff

    Went into the inland iron trash again yesterday. Theres so much scrap in here in knee deep water, the muck has a dark rusty tone to it. I still am amazed how the Pro can pull a good signal through it. Not kidding, running iron audio off. OK so I've picked this place over pretty good, and it...

    I thought WE were nuts!

    Until I ran into two guys suiting up to go SPEARFISHING this morning...not spearing fish through the ice out of a nice warm shanty, smoking, drinking brandy and jigging a decoy like one normally does up here, but actually scuba diving for them! :surprised: I wished I had taken their picture, but...

    ice merc and wheat

    Got up to some snow cover. Shoveled the drive and read the Forums. Drove on out to the Big water but it was too rough, found a little inland backwater sort of out of the wind and pulled a 17 merc and a 44 wheat, some lead weights, tabs, shotgun shells, clad etc. Waders froze solid, drove past...

    Well I went out none the less...:sadwalk:

    Couldn't take it anymore, had to grab the F70 and go. The wind chill came up from 7 to 10 F and there was a slight skiff of snow on the ground, with more falling from the sky. I did not bag the 11" coil but should have as it balled up with snow and got heavy. Lake is icing up... I got...

    Nail City

    Took the Pro to nail city and shot a pic of the typical scoopout...hit that aluminum good luck charm right through the mess...Running pro zero 40 disc iron off as you can imagine...and only a few clicks of sens. Seems a guy can pick good targets in this mess, by only using the center of the...

    A day made for the Pro!

    Heavy wind, heavy rain! The road I drive down got covered by the beach, and the surf was up, no going in there!... I wadered up and put on an upper rain coat and headed into a sort of sheltered inland place. Got a nice old 925 and a big stainless steel ring. They sound just like big Gold...

    Lumbago F70 clad stab cure! :stretcher:

    Last Sunday as I was pulling up my waders, my back went "pop"...just a little pop, low and on the left side, but by the time I got out of the water, I was barely able to walk... Monday I was hurtin', hunting through the pain...Tuesday I was still hunting, the Big Lake conditions were just too...

    merc and silver toe ring today

    Took the Pro for a dip in Lake Mich this morning. Found a cut blown out right down to the hardpack. Was running pro zero 40disc 3 clicks from full sens, iron off...all targets were maybe half a scoop deep, so a guy could run a lighter sens yet. Going after chains, so I was digging all...

    Grapes of Wrath weekend

    Real windy and cold. Usually a big wind during the Friday night football games means good odds for paper dollars blown into the downwind fenceline. Nope, no good for cans of cold soda either, lots of styrofoam cups from all the hot chocolate and coffee though...the Cannies, (empty can hunters)...

    The heck with the Coinstar!:rofl:

    So there I was this am, up early and gone by the light of that big Hunters moon, F70 busily finding money at the edges of parking lots. I had a pouch full of dirty clad including one dollar coin, and was thinking about where the nearest coinstar was so I could go get some more coffee, then I...

    F70 found my Son a JOB!

    Flash back to when I got the F70 in the spring of 2010...shortly thereafter, my Wife was having a garage sale, but all Friday night I kept thinking about this one location and how I HAD to go there. It was a long hike out to the Lake, and the Wife said I better be home by 9am...I told her I HAD...
