So.... you DO have a mirror!

 

[arcticsid]

i thought it was a mirror. I guess i never stop to think it could have been someone ELSES reflection!
I just played you a tune HB. Bob Dylan, "May as Well Catch the Wind"

 

[arcticsid]

Now I am playing some America tunes. I told you I was born ten years to late, I lived a few years in the wilderness of Alaska and survived longer than that in "Americas Deadliest Catch". I've been in the "jazz", only those who know what that is...know. I know you know what the "jazz" is. "those who speak about it , know, those who do not speak, do not know"

Couple times the adrenaline was going so fast I was sure I was going to have a heart attack. To scared to quit, to far away from home to walk away. To many guys around me to let down. Thats the JAZZ!!!

HB, I don't need to tell you, and am certain I have no place to remind you, but I know what it means to save a mans life. I may have not done it on the battlefield, but I did it on the high seas. I remeber that like it was yesterday! I think about it all the time. I had a holt of that kid and I WAS NOT GOING TO LET HIM GO! Either he came back over the side with me or we were both gonna go. Thats the way you do it isn't it ?

That's the way it's supposed to be... although I've never saved a life like that... maybe by taking a life in a firefight I saved a life, but I don't know.

Nice catch and beautiful dog!

 

[Wade E]

Yep, nice dinner. Did you panfry those?

 

[grapeman]

Wade will shoot me for this- and I know he has the firepower to do it- but I hadn't seen this post before. Wade got in a fight with a big chunk of wood one day and - "Wade fought the Wood and the Wood one!"

 

[Tom]

You sure it was the TREE that hit him....

Yes, mostly crappie with a few rock bass thrown in.
Breaded with some seasoned corn meal and pan fried mmmmm good.

The dog likes fishing more than me, she sits up on the front of the boat, watches me make each cast, and gets all excited when I set the hook. When fishing is slow, she looks up at me and whines, like "come on daddy, your supposed to be reeling in fish". She's a funny dog.

Just gotta do it. Sorry Fellas. Heres a halibut. 266#, sometimes you just gotta do it! Like Upper would say, "Dig it!"

This is a "yope ah Doe" on the go-go!

King Crab

These aren't the crabs your daddy warned you about!

Next time you buy King Crab and complain about the price, please remeber my fellow fisherman who have given their lives to get these!!!

I can only think of one thing to say, and that is Upper...."Dig it!!!"

(sorry Upper, nobody says it better than you Bro'!")

And what the price per # for a king or snow crab up there
