Bet there's not an ulcer among them. Not bad pickin’ either. Reminds me a little of an old camper that I and a couple of guys jointly owned we called the “port-a-slum”. We had some great times with it.

Some Liberal jealous SOB will see this and make sure they cant do what they are doing.

There aint nothing more relaxing and free than going out onto the water and floating around on a raft. Do a little fishing, nap, chew the fat with a friend, eat when you please...

Morons are people who spend $45,000 dollars on the fastest boat in the river, 17 foot long with a 250 hp motor ripping up and down at the river at 75 mph catching fish and throwing them back in, trying to win a trophy for the biggest fish.

My philosophy on hunting and fishing is, if you dont eat it, dont kill it, or screw up its mouth with a hook.

These guys are having a great inexpensive time, having a few laughs, nor harming anyone ,and they are Morons???

Count me in.

I don’t understand how they were able to build this boat at all. Never once in this interview did they explain how they got a government subsidy.

Rednecks are some of the most creative and talented inventors on the planet. They take normally discarded materials and make use of them that is simplistic, efficient, and cost effective.

Who else would come up with a way to make a lawn chair, some pallet material and a small electric motor into a 'bass boat"?

So you would refuse to fish in a resource that had a slot limit? You might have throw it back (utterly, and completely unharmed by the way) if it's a certain size. And if your kid or grand kid wanted to fish for sunfish with corn and throw them back, you would be troubled by the moral implications of such an activity? Don't buy peta's bull. Released fish are just fine well over 90% of the time. And they are fish, not "sea kittens".

You are so right. Hubby use to fish and toss them back to let someone else catch the big one and he did have one mounted or whatever many years ago. He had not kept any for years before his death of liver cancer in 2006. It was just too risky.

American ingenuity hasn’t been lost. We’re just looking for it in the wrong places.
