The lake is about eight miles, and a 40 doesn't burn a lot of gas. Plus, I catch big rainbows that sell for $6 a pound at the store. So, time to dust off the guppy, fix the carpet, replace some wood, do some painting, get some hardware, another anchor, a battery, and .................... holy ****. I think it may be cheaper to keep golfing. Steve Go fishing. The white bass are biting. We caught 130 in four hours yesterday. The boat could be a problem though... What boat problem would that be? The lake where we caught the bass, Shelbyville Lake, has no limit on white bass. The boat has live-wells on either side that can hold a substantial quantity of fish. The live wells, 2 per side, are approximately 3'x2'x1 1/2'. We filled one side of the boat with 130 fish. (The aerator wasn't working on the other side.) A smaller boat could have trouble with 200 lbs. of white bass. People, less a large number of liberals and progressives, can be fairly enterprising. There's always a way, I suppose. -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service -------http://www.NewsDemon.com------ Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access |

The people behind us like me since I play "ready golf" and there are usually some balls left behind if they are willing to go look for them. Well, I'll say this about golf versus fishing. I've never been bitten by a chigger while fishing. I'm sitting here now with a total of about 75 chigger bites on my upper thighs, waist, and ankles. Chigger bites are not fun. I think the last time I had a chigger bite was when I was a young kid in Missouri. I must have stepped in a herd (or whatever) of them when I played golf Thursday. Bad ****. |

As to the people writing on their scorecards - it shouldn't take them that long to write the number 4, 5, 6 or whatever. Hell, that should be done while walking from the green to the next tee. It's hard to track your index and your improvement (or lack thereof) without keeping your score. |

Anyway the range employed a jeep with thick plexi windows and windshield towing some sort of device that picked up the balls. Naturally, the game was to hit the jeep with a driven golf ball. Second best fun was walking around a course at Hilton Head with a couple of buddies who were actually playing. I don't know why, but my buddies got upset when I tossed some of the snacks we were hauling around with us to the alligators. :) Alligators eating golfers...now that would be something worth seeing. |

He's no better at golf than anything else he has tried in his life...mediocre at best. He raised his children very well. Can you say the same, WAFA? Even dumb Donnie has a kid who likes him (albeit for his room and board and a lot of beer). Carry on, loser. |
