Guys, I can't make it this year due to my dad is going to require around the clock care now he is back home.

But as the Reigning Grand Pubah of the Norton Snagger Fishing Club

Yea Franco ditto,

And Cy sorry for the delay but you should have it today, mailed out a bunch of stuff this week.
Got to tell you guys this sporting life is getting dayum expensive, just this week laying out for hunting licenses in three states for me and my two sons, over 400 bucks so far and that does not include extended season tags I still have to buy. Plus 1300 bucks for my annual Bird Hunting Club dues (went up again this year), went thru about three hundred the past couple of weeks in fuel and bait and gear related stuff for fishing on both boats.
The CEO is looking at me askew, might have to take her upstairs and make her forget the check book for awhile, the things I do for the sporting life.

at least you got it to spend it...... all I need is a dam water hose and thermostat to fix my boat, and I am looking for the money to buy it and then the time to install it. Might not get to fish the tourney at this pace.

I aint got that much to spend, when I was a youger whippersnapper I fished and hunted and I don't think I ever spent more than a few hundred a season for hunting all over. Being an outdoorsman here in the east anyhow has gotten very pricey.
Now if I had Ozzies money then I would not have even commented, now don't get the idea I am complaining cause I will be fishing and hunting till I am in the grave but it just seems to have gotten outta control.
Just an observation.

There appears to be a dearth of fish postings here. I understand when I don't catch anything worth posting (that just how I fish). But I expected to see some good fish coming from our V20 fishin' experts here. With the upcoming weather this weekend (sounds like you southern boys have had it all week) we are looking at maybe another week with no fish posted! That is half of the tournament gone. Maybe I should have kept and posted my 10 ounce sea robin from last weekend.

and when i say 10oz I really mean 8oz, heck I drowned some eels that were bigger than that.

Thanks Guys,
As far as I know, there are only 2 of these hats in existence! If you guys are interested I'll have more done!

Hey Oz, Dads doin' better physically, but all this took a toll on him. It has advanced his alzheimers, he is having a lot of days with his own "private reality"! He is supposed to use a walker and call for assistance getting up, etc. But he is one stubborn ol' cuss and does things his own way. He is not as steady on his feet and falling is a real danger for him. I gotta tell you guys, my wife Mrs. Pubah, stayed in the hospital with my dad for the entire 22 day ordeal! She is one in a billion!! Now that he is home we are having nurses and therapists stopping buy and helping out for a couple of hours a few days a week. We weren't sure he was gonna get to come home. Thought he was gonna end up in a rehab hospital or nursing home. That aint gonna happen till absolutely cannot care for him.

As far as being the Duckman with Aflac, it's been a good month. We are doing the enrollment for the county, a new account for us. put 1000 miles on my truck in the last 2 weeks and never left the county! Plus I put some money in the bank. It has it's ups and downs. I like my boss, being that I'm an independent agent and work for myself! I got the okay from MJ to put a space in the sponsors area. I will work on that soon and hopefully I can assist anyone interested.

I hope to have some more time to visit here more often now that we are getting acclimated to our new routine around here.

Thanks to all
