Really nice crappie, and what a gorgeous iris!
Nice slabs there John. How do you like those vacuum bags?
The fish were on a slow bite but fun to catch nevertheless.Quote:

When I was a kid, Daddy would freeze them in waxed cardboard milk cartons, adding water. But now, these bags make the meat last longer in the freezer and taste better. The meat's much firmer than when frozen in water.Quote:

Nice flower and fish John, Hard to beat a Good Dad in our lives:) CP
Good pics AJ....Carrying on with your Daddy's Iris is pretty cool....nice fish too.
Where do you get the bags and would your standard wallymart pump work, like one made by Ozark for blowing up and deflating stuff?
Awesome slab pic!:)
The 17th was mine and my wife's 28th wedding anniversary. Without a lot of money to spend on flowers I stopped a bunch of times on my 1 1/2 hour drive home and picked all these flowers in the wild.
She said that she enjoyed this more than any flowers that I have bought her in the past.
