I hosed up my post a little bit. I had a couple of sentences before I said Barbara Streisand but they somehow got deleted. Didn’t mean it to refer to your statement my friend.

Not a charter boat captain, but I do have a couple of personal crafts, one is a 50 footer on the Wolf river chain. Screen name refers to the 42 footer I had when I joined FR. Can’t give up that so I guess it will always be around.

We catch a ton of Northern where I’m at, been topping out just under 40” with lots in the 35-38” range.

US Navy was on the scene before Katrina was. And had helicopters over the city before it quit raining.

Two years overdue.

ROFL. Bush didn’t even mention Blanco by name and she still issues a reponse. That old saying about throwing something in a pack of dogs and see which one yelps comes to mind.

I read she was considering a run for Boustany’s seat. :)

And Free Republic has the “Katrina Live Threads” to prove it!

I was reading through them again a few days ago. This is another grand slam for FR exposing the lies that the media puts out.

Had the same thing happen more than once over the years.
Inadvertently started a flame war or two with a few people who'd otherwise been friends, all because of screwed-up HTML.

"Didn’t mean it to refer to your statement my friend."

Thanks, got'cha covered. ;^)

OMG, a 50 footer.
I've an old childhood friend who inherited his dad's 45' Chriscraft -- The Captain - Milwaukee -- they've moored at the South Shore Yacht Club -- for years.
Boat's complete with dingy, sonar/radar, galley and sleeps 6. And your's is 5' longer, eh? :o)
Obviously you're well acquainted with the mileage these sized monsters (don't) get, eh? {g}

"Screen name refers to the 42 footer I had when I joined FR. Can’t give up that so I guess it will always be around."

Given where you live I'd say a boat the size of Blue Monday is mandatory, the lake's nothing to mess with IMO in anything smaller even though many people use much smaller craft to go way out in the bay. Not me.

Another old friend posts here, has a nice boat -- The Bravemen -- also. Don't know exactly how long it goes, 25' or so, & I pinged 'em. Maybe he'll feel like talking.

"We catch a ton of Northern where I’m at, been topping out just under 40” with lots in the 35-38” range."

Unbelievable.
Last spring while in De Pere I couldn't believe how many small craft were on the Fox River outlet (by a paper mill?), apparently after Walleye. Given the number of boats it was almost as if the fish were jumping into the boats.
Personally speaking is there anything quite as tasty as a boneless filleted Northern Pike (or Walleye) pan-fried w/ some Shore Lunch & fried potatoes?

...I think not, Captain. ;^)
