Wow good digging there "GoGold"!!

I definitely won't be buying anything from that con artist!
Gosh and he was able to sucker people in by looking like a real dealer.
Many thanks !

That was a good idea to walk away from the deal. Yea those dang skeeters are mighty thirsty right now. Went hunting up forest park next to the river which runs alongside the campgrounds. Had to abandon the hunt as, on dusk they came in droves. They seem worse this year, than last year. I guess the campers will be showering in deet .
Might hit Riversdale beach after new years. Always a good hunt up there but, last time I was there that southward rip had produced a few calm patches that looked like some nasty big holes out there.

Man, I used to have a house out there, years ago. I miss it. Would be great to hunt there after January busy season.

Lol where abouts :) We used to stay at the old beach house that was converted from a farm storage shed (lol). Just down from the shop. Had all the modern conveniences, outside long drop, Boatmen bugs in the rain water tank, and a garage area that was too small ya bearly could get the old beach tractor in.. The younger cousins painted thew old tractor, purple, green and yellow,, was never the same after that
