Doc, I don't own a jig that can catch a fish. They forgot how when I had to quit fishing over in your neck of the woods. I can't come until Friday, but plan on being there around daylight.

Prefers Shiners, the tires are up and the bearings greased. I just forgot to mention those two things. And, I usually leave the plug in since I keep the boat in the garage, which doesn't make Mrs. Diane too happy because she has to park her car outside. LOL.

Johnny is still around. Doesn't really get on the board anymore. He is staying busy with work and hunting right now. I do call him every once in awhile to check and see how things are going. Thanks for asking.

Hey, maxwell328. I'm glad to know there are other pastors on here. I pastor Welcome Home Baptist Church. It's on Hwy 34, about 7 miles north of Joyce. I'm three miles south of where Hwy 126 hits Hwy 34. That would put me about 35 miles from you as Hwy 126 comes out over at Grayson. We'll have to get together and have coffee sometimes; maybe have coffee as we are crappie fishing. LOL. Call me sometime. My phone number is 318-355-5743.
