They say that the two happiest days of owning a boat is the day you buy it,
and the day you sell it. That's aint exactly true...


While Brandon (aka: Inky) was extremely happy this morning as Steve and I
were giving him boating lessons, I quietly felt as though I was losing a
small part of me. It wasn't a happy day for me, even though I was ready to
sell my belived Nitro. I was happy to see it going to someone who I felt
would take care of it, and I have to say that Brandon is one lucky son of a
gun.

1. He picked up a sweet boat at a great price...
2. Is going to have Steve Huber as a father in law...
3. Has a wife-to-be that, while expecting a baby, let's him make a boat
purchase...

He's going to be a happy man all the way around. I liked him as soon as I
met him.

As for me... I'm not totally out of fishing, but will be taking a little
break from it for awhile. My wife and kids are already telling me that my
next boat is going tobe a pontoon boat, but I'm not too sure about that.
Afterall... I'm the one who will be paying for it. I also plan on taking
Joe, Terry, and Jack up their offers to fish with them, but only when I feel
desperate about wanting to catch some fish. It will be interesting being a
non-boater for awhile, but next weekend I'll be taking possesion of a 2006
Honda Shadow VLX Deluxe that ought to make up for what I've given up.

My Mom says it's mid-life crisis... I'm almost convinced.

Goodbye Nitro...

Hmmm. You sure you can't take a weekend trip to Pennsylvania? I'll
make sure you have that "I caught some good fish" feeling for a while
when you leave

Mapquest to Long Pond P.A. bring Joe and video camera. We can start
with some Friday night fishing, followed by early morning Saturday
fishing continued by Saturday night fishing then a small Sunday morning
tourney ending at about 12 noon. Your off and running home and back
late Sunday night. I have two boats, two motors and two batteries so
all would be well. would be a great time to throw them SW buzzbaits
towards some 5-7 pounders. But hey who wants to catch that many fish
anyway? :-)

You'll love it Charles, but you have to promise to leave "Herman" (my 7
Pounder) alone. Only problems are, the motels aren't cheap.

You forgot to mention 4 lakes within 2 minutes of each other. All fine

Lake Erie is one of those places that I have promised myself that I'd fish.
You know where to find them smallies???

Been doin' fair so far this season. Weather plays a big part of what days
you can go out. Erie can go from flat calm to six footers in 15 minutes.
Makes ya glad to have a go fast boat. Doc
