Having been fishing on six out of the past eight nights, I now have to countenance no fishin' for the next week. :( Look at the weather forecast. below. :(

Oh well I have a list of things to do...

1. Replace the skids on the boat trailer. :)
2. Check/replace the back roller. :)
3. Adjust the rollers to fit against the keel. :)
4. Service my reels :)
5. Get a scourer and clean off the surfaces of the boat. That bucket washing caper with a sponge still leaves caked on bits of bait and blood etc. ;)
6. Make up a few more ganged hooks. :)
7. Make up a few traces and rigs with stingers. :)

97. And oh yes, perhaps I should repair the back door. :(
98. Paint the front door. :(
100. Fix the wheel on the laundry trolley :(
101. Pull some weeds out of the front garden :(
102. Clean out the garage :(
103. .........


Wonder how long the strong winds will last? :-[ :-[ :-[

Ahhh... don't stress too much. I think we've all seen the forecast do a complete turnaround in the past. ;)

What about fishing the creeks and Rivers for a change or try the freshwater scene. Anything would have to be better than doing chores.

And, maybe items 1 - 5 can wait a little longer as well. ;D ;D ;D

Pretty sad isn't it charlie, i have already pulled my boat to bits, seems i did it at the right time. That forecast is dead right too for tonight, it's gotta be blowing every bit of 25 here on Russell Island at the moment.

Well Charleville, at least you should still have some fillets in the freezer the way you've been slaying them lately ;D

Also gives the fish some R & R and time to restock for your next trip ;)

Come to think of it you might want add painting the bottom of your hull to your chores as the fish will see it comming and say on No hear comes "Charleville" the fish slayer swim for your lives!!!!!

LOL :)

Here's hoping the conditions change for the better sooooooooon so we can all go fishing. ::)

I'm with you! Trying Estuary is not really the same, although you will get some good bream on my favorite bait around the Nerang/broadwater at night...... That's the only tempting alternative for me..

Alright, first off, let me make the obligitory Jerry Seinfeldian, "Not that there's anything wrong with that," disclaimer so no one gets mad.

I have no problems with people's personal life-style choices or anything like that. What adults choose to do in their own private lives is their own business , etc., etc., etc. I understand that and am fine with it.

HOWEVER, I cannot believe that this is happening!!! :o I was all set to go fishing at Burnham harbor on Lake Michigan this saturday for some bass. Not going to happen. Definately, definately, definately not going to happen. The opening ceremonies of the "Gay Games" (I guess it's an olympics for gays or something) are taking place about a half block away from my favorite fishing spot! TRIP CANCELLED!!! Definately cancelled! ;D

It gets better (and by that, I mean worse)! The thing runs all week long at various sites all around the city. I usually take the train to get to my fishing spots along the shoreline. I am NOT taking the train anywhere in the city for at least a week.

I'll bet having a weeks worth of fishing trips ruined due to wind suddenly seems easier to accept for you all. ;D

I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS! A week's worth of fishing shot ta hell due to the world sending their "happier" atheletes to my city to compete in who knows what!


So while you're doing your chores or loafing around the house next week thinking about fishing and cursing the weather gods for ruining your trips, spare a moment, won't you? :-?, to think of your old pal, El_Carpo (the cursed one).....................................and stop yer laughing!!! >:( ;D ;D ;D


;D.....and before anyone suggests, "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em." NO! Definately NOT! I'll stay with my avoiding plan. ;D ;D ;D

Hey El-Carpo, at least you won't run short of lures. There will be plenty of soft plastics laying around ( a bit worse for wear maybe!!)

;) I figured I might get a few jokes out of you guys with that post. Well done! Funny! ;D


I don't think I'll ever again be able to rig up a soft plastic without laughing a bit thanks to shaman.


So, has the weather forecast changed for you guys yet or is fishing still shot for the week? I hope you guys can catch a break and are able to get a trip or two in. Good luck.

If not, at least you can maybe get those confounded chores done (are they ever really done? :P). I know I'll have plenty of time to get my "chores to-do" list up to date. I'll definately have next week free.

My stupid city can't get the regular Olympics, or the Special Olympics or even that "Goodwill Games" thing Ted Turner came up with.....noooooooOOOOOOOOOooooooooo........we get THIS! And where??? Right at my fishing spot! What a world?! ;D The universe is against me! Especially when it comes to fishing. Up 'til now, I've only suspected it, now I'm sure of it!


"Soft plastics." I'm afraid those words will never be quite the same. :-/ ;D
