Any of you guys fish?

Hey Guys,
Was just curious if everyone has been as busy as I have since it finally warmed up.I've been busting my A$$ for 4 days straight now doing the usual yard cleanup and organizing things.I had a lot of stuff to deal with because of all of the equipment i've bought recently.I've finally got things in order to where my place doesn't look like a junkyard lol.I had to move my boat today so I could cleanup around it,I looked it over and before I knew it I had the tarp off and was cleaning it up to.I tell ya I don't think i'm going to do as many tractors this year I think instead ill get some fishing in,I used to fish like a fool,i've got some pretty nice trophy fish on my wall.I used to put serious time in on the water.I haven't fished in about 4 years now I think i'm going to change that this year.Any of you guys fish? Posted a few pics of my boat it's a 18 foot sylvan man the thing is like a cadilac in the water 115 horse johnson,not a speed demon but moves pretty good fast enough for me KW (motomow)

We have a 14 foot canoe, but we don't fish.

I know my yard looks like a museum though, one guy told us this and then asked if he could look at everything, we obliged.

We do spruce up the yard though, but no fertilizer, why would anyone want to make the grass grow faster.

You have a nice looking boat man, I bet you don't have a cell phone do you.

KW I did fish quiet a bit with a neighbor last few years.
He had one of those Bass Tracker setups & thats how I discovered Slyvan Lk.
Times are tuff though & the neighbor sold his boat this winter.....bummer.
My boats are kinda setup wrong for fishing too.

KW my wife hates are big boat....spooks her when you turn & the whole thing leans.
She jut can't get passed that it's normal V hull behavior.
Were kinda hopeing to dump the big one & get a toon....then I'll add a tralling motor & do some fishing.

Man you guys and ur boats

I aint been fishing for a while, but i plan to do it more this year.

I actually got a awesome deal on my boat johnny I really was looking for a 14-16 footer just to fish in but man this thing is older but actually pretty nice,115 horse johnson runs like new auto bilge pumps all the bells and whistles on the dash,everything works like new,oil injected,its a 93 sylvan got it for $1500 heck man most normal fishing boats I looked at were running that much.

Ya Ken, all the good deals come to us if we wait, I certainly figured that out in this hobby, just image, there's a better way than ebay.

yep, love to fish mainly bass but love catfish turles and frogs also.

Ya, I like the local trade paper, I have trouble with my local craigslist, it never gets more than 4-6 new entries a day in the farm/garden section....
Too bad the local trade paper only comes out once a week...

Ouch a feel bad for ur BIL.....................it is kinda funny tho

Sweet KW, everyone I know and fish with around here fish for crappie also, It is good eating. I am very interested in giving it a shot, I like any fishing, I like blue gill fishing with the kids.

I used to beat the water to death! Have been thru a few boats over the years presently dont own a boat. Last year went several times at camp ground ponds we camped at. Really need to do it more but have alot of tractor projects inline!
