• Bee Is Still Slabbing

    I am still at it just not as often. As I creep closer to my 80th birthday I find myself doing it alone and I tend to be more of a fairweather guy. This time of year I am using my fish finder in the Flasher mode that is used when ice fishing. The last 2 trips have produced some great slabs with several at 15 inches. The colors have been very nice. As always these big ones are released.

      Bee. Being all you can be!!
      As I creep closer to 70 I have that little voice in the back of my mind reminding me there is less sand in the top of the hour glass than in the bottom. Several years ago I met a young man who was in his early 80’s. I was still working and envied his lust for life. He fished religiously 3 times a week and often brought me limits of fish when I returned home from work. Bob, who passed a year ago, fished weekly until he was 90 and still had that sparkle in his eyes whenever the subject came up.
      Near the end his body just wore out but he would love to hear every detail about the fishing and hunting trips my grandson and I were making.

      Sieze the moment!!! It could be your last.

      Bon Temps!!
