What I’ve Been Watching…

It hasn’t been the market.

We’re back from an extended weekend getaway in the mountains of Virginia.

My son took this picture Sunday morning. The fishing was decent but the time away from the world was priceless.

I’ll be back Wednesday to sort out the markets…

    I always loved outdoor activities like fishing and hunting with my father. Hope you are enjoying your vacation. Looks picturesque.

    Nice trip, I was born in VA. WA state is much nicer. I do that every weekend.

    In the rain.

    Two rules for a happy life:
    1) Don’t sweat the small stuff.
    2) In the long run, everything is small stuff.

    You’ve got it under control, Wood…

    Ok…I’ve tried to add this comment twice. Trying one last time…

    Nice move indeed, Wood. If the fish aren’t biting, try telephonin’ for catfish. You may remember we had a brief discussion about this.

      A few months back, you asked what “telephonin'” was, but I don’t know if you ever saw my response (reprinted below).

      Telephonin’ is an old-codger thing. I’ve never personally done it, but I know it goes on.

      You take an old-timey wall telephone and attach wires to the magneto, hang one wire (pos and neg) out each side of the boat, and crank the telephone. It stuns the fish, they float to the top, and you dip-net them.

      It is illegal down here. But, there are parts of South Georgia that haven’t seen a game warden in years, and plenty of people depend on catfish to subsidize the groceries.

      Tried to repost the telephonin’ explanation, but for some reason it is blocking me. Too bad. It is surely priceless bit of Mad Willie info that the iBC universe will be denied.
