the lake gave up some gold yesterday

Noticed a little bit of white chalky haze starting to develop in places on my rubber coated binoculars, read somewhere about using Armor All to rid that stuff away. Have some Armor All wipes laying around for use in my car so I gave the binos a wipe down with one and bingo, haze gone and better than new, rejuvenated the rubber coating perfectly. Al

Awesome catch . How many in your haul ?

Congrats, nice catch, no finer eating than Perch. Al

My friend that let me hunt his land and take my 8 point buck in 2023 knows I'm a motorcycle guy and was telling me his 94 year old father has an old motorcycle in the barn that he used to ride when he was young. I asked if I could see it and he invited me over yesterday to look at it. It turned out to be a 1914 Indian that is in ratty shape, but all of the original parts are still there (except the front tire). It hasn't been run in decades, but it's been in a dry barn and seems to be very restorable. After looking it over, the old man said he is not interested in selling it and invited me into his house to show me some other things he's collected over the years. He has a cool custom made 45 caliber muzzle loader that is beautiful and at least 50 years old, but I'm not familiar with the maker. He has many other things he's collected from around the world as well. Old firearms, bows, spears, shields and knives adorn the walls of his home. Each one has a story to go along with it too. He also has a 1970 Cadillac Coupe De Ville convertibe in the garage that is in pristine condition and keeps on a battery tender so he can take it out for a drive every so often in the summer. I never pass up any opportunity to meet and chat with people as old as he is. They experienced an entirely different world and the stories they tell and things they still have in their possession from decades ago always fascinate me. It's like speaking to living history.

First ever one pointer/spike!

On board, with fresh little 3 pt side tell you what, the feeling never gets old when I first spot one while searching
