    sorry i didn’t see this earlier ariat…rumor has it you struggled this weekend in your endeavors? just because there are fresh holes in the ice with 20 tails laying there doesn’t exactly mean anything now does it….

    Drew is available for a guide trip this weekend if you’re interested…

    You can’t catch fish if your house is sitting on shore. I will be putting a hurting on the eyes thursday night and friday as I feel it was some sort of anomoly that I didn’t get into them last weekend.
