    Hey Fry where ya been? Longtime no see.
    There will be days when the fishing is better than one's most optimistic forecast, others when it is far worse. Either is a gain over just staying home.

    talk to you boys in another two years.
    Where you been, fry? Good to see you back around! Thanks for the info and don't be such a stranger!

    My son caught a 7 pounder three years ago in the HAHA Tonka area on a crankbait.........We couldn't believe our eyes.
    Nothing better than getting out on the water.
