Dock time


Jul 31, 2021, 3:01 PM

On the dock playing ROCK from the '60s too loud -- Jefferson, Zombies, Kinks, Beach Boys, CCR, etc.
It is a nice day and right now at 3PM I can't see even one boat.

Where are the folks?

The humidity is keeping people in I would guess. It’s oppressive today.

It is true that most folks in my area are from the colder north, what did they expect?

They complained long enough about the cold so they decided to move to the South to complain about the heat.

Hang in there, tug! I'm on my way with a cooler and more of the music you're enjoying!

They probably don't want to pay those outrageous gas prices, I wouldn't either. ;)

It is a fact that pulling your grandkids around on tubes burns a LOT of gas. Those power boats are gas hogs. On the flip, people who can afford a $100K boat don't worry about that.

Noticing less boats today as well

Back to school shopping.

boat.jpg(129.8 K)

My boat is small both in length and width. Twenty years ago searched the web for a tiny pontoon and found this one in Greenwood.
http://yardcraphome.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2391&d=1393872569

It has a 60HP Merc and will get up to 17mph as it is tiny.
I have it set up as a fishing boat to troll with as that is how I use it (have no kids or grandkids to pull around). I am too lazy to cast for hours, prefer to troll (plus I see more things).

I could buy a new boat as I have a million miles on it, but this is perfect for my old ###. I guess neighbors see it as an eyesore. I have replaced the motor once and this last year upgraded the trolling motor -fish finder which was about $3000. That is worth more than this old boat and the old guy who steers it.

I have upgraded the sound system as I am #### about bad sounding tunes.
I drift along the shores with the electric motor at about 2.5mph playing tunes too loud hoping to see birds.
You would be surprised at how many fish I catch - believe the "too loud" tunes makes them hungry.

always remember to keep a cooler full of catfish in case law enforcement pulls you ever, they will never think to look for the heroin if they belive that you are just fishing.

I’ve been giving bad advice apparently. Oops.
