Wow! Yep, that kid hit the lottery getting you for a Dad, and I'm sure you feel the same way about him. I especially loved that he insisted on the bug shelter. It's good for kids to see their input pan out. Reminds me of my own Dad and the trips he took me on. You are doing it right...

Deerfly - Great Photos, Thanks! Those kids look like they are having a blast catching those redfish! I have 2 nephews who bought an old Duck Hunting Lodge on an Island in Pamlico Sound, NC. They have a few Gheenoes for that shallow sound. I'll trailer it down there and around the barrier...

Cleaned it up and took it out for a run with a 2 horse. Got up to about 8MPH with 2 big guys and a Brittany in it. At top speed, I could stand up in the center of the boat no problem. This is going to be a fun boat.

Hey Mem, Interested in a square stern with a high prow?

And.... I buy another boat. My nephews have been banging around NC outer banks the last few years and one is moving to NC this summer. While getting to know locals in the Pamlico Sound, they got turned on to Gheenoes as flats and river boats. Seeing as the wind can blow the water out of...

FOR INFO ONLY - Saw an OT pack for sale in mid Wisconsin on CL tonight. Hull looks great, seat needs re-caned.

Ken, Thor does love Canadian geese! We have a chopped up season for them here that starts in September and ends in February. The first big goose he retrieved he had this crazy look in his eyes like: "Look at the size of this thing I got!!" He will circle a goose and grab it's neck and give...

Thor will be happy to know a new crop is on the way!

TIck Key ROCKS on humans and dogs. I always go with some alcohol wipe and Neosporin after removal just for precaution. Funy that my hound can get a Lymes DIsease inoculation, but there is none for humans!

When I read your first post, I was thinking you were travelling to WY on your trip. but I see you are based there. How is your snowpack?

Iskweo, the old(er) Midwest pheasant hunters revere the 16 gauge as a perfect tool.

Pringles - Flying in to Jackson for the annual fly fish trip on the 18th and leaving on the 28th. I will leave you GPS coordinates for a cache with a nice Malbec and some smoked Gouda. 8^)

Here is a photo of the Effebi .410 I plan to start my canoe shooting with.

I have my Dad's old fiberglass square stern 17 footer and the Johnson 2 HP he ran on it. Pretty nice to zip around a small lake or on rivers and kt has a high curved bow for the waves. You can carry a good amount of gear and get off a lake quick if weather turns bad, as was stated earlier. OP -...

Should have mentioned Schroeder Baking Company on Rt. 61 in Minnesota between Duluth and Grand Marais border crossing. It's a little café on the East side of the road next to the post office.

Well Mem, as soon as it's off the lakes, get over to that little pond next to where I stayed last year and find some of those huge Brookies. Go with heavy leader, the fish were handing under the logs and beaver structures - I lost at least one 5+ lber in there

Been Using an EXPED Downmat 7 for 8 years. On the aluminum floors of C17s travelling overseas in tents, boats, log lean to floors. Mine has been amazing,.with not even a pin hole.

One spring weekend in my teens I was taking a canoe down a stretch of the Delaware River up above Hancock, NY when I saw a large bird in the river. I scope it with a landing net and it was a ruffed grouse. It was still alive, but shivering. It eventually perched on the bow until it warmed up...

If that Prospector 14 is made of that new Unobtanium material, it might be my undoing......

YEP Map junkie here. Started with my Dad, who taught me to use a compass. He was an old school Norwegian who grew up way North in Malangen. He joined the commercial fishing and whaling fleet at 14 to support the family after his dad passed away. When I was a kid, when we went for a drive or...
