Mel,

I don’t fish and know nothing about it really, but you don’t need to know fishing to see that the built-in tape in your net is absolutely brilliant. 🤯👍
I had a plain one and this was my dad's. This one is larger and if the conditions were better we normally tangle with 15-20" cutthroat on this river. A lot of dinks on this trip but that's fine. At least when I take a picture of a fish in the net I have proof!! 😂

Those look great and at $160, wow, what a deal. They were on Marketplace? They look new! Good score.
It was a younger couple unloading some of their stuff that's been sitting in their garage. They're getting married in December and are trying to get some extra money for the honeymoon. There's some scratches on the top from their cat but nothing I can't fix if I wanted to. Probably not. lol


First fly fishing trip since my GBS last year. Bit of a slow day and nothing to write home about but I wasn't skunked!! 😂 Our water is really low this year with mild winter and lack of snow pack. Still beautiful in the woods! Plus 28.8 mpg round trip!😎 Was at 30 mpg coming down the river road before we hit the interstate to come home. These trucks are so cool!!😁

Plus, the fact wild cutthroat in Idaho are protected and catch & release only. Besides, she's doing it wrong. Hold it closer to the camera like the pro bass fisherman do!! :giggle:

Cottages are like swimming pools. The best ones are your neighbors or relatives

So true Duke, they don't think about twice the work!

You know it. And it’s necessary work that you can’t always get to quickly, so it often becomes a bigger issue/problem/task. Now excuse me while I head back out to finish cleaning out that last run of rain gutter and install new gutter guards. 👷‍♂️ 🔨

You need a utility trailer to haul that stuff if you don't already have one. I have done stuff like that with a shell on the truck and it sucks!!😂

The Ranger from a far with Lake Bois D Arc in the background. It is really calming and peaceful out at the lake.

Looks like you're having a good time by the lake and enjoying the time off. Keep it up and I see early retirement in your future. 😜

It's the best job I've ever had and every day is Saturday! I have to constantly look at my phone to see what day and date it is. lol

I did get the job at the gun range two days a week. So much fun working with customers and new shooter/gun owners. There's always a couple things you could do without but it's so minor I look forward to going to work. I can't always say that the last many years teaching. I did like my job and the interactions with my students and colleagues but like any job the powers that be can sure ruin it at times.
