Title: Hi, I'm northerndave
Post by: Northerndave on December 12/17/16, 10:57:58 PM
Hi guys, I'm from far northern mn, lake if the woods is my regular fishing area. Other than that, I hu t deer and small game, I like shooting, I'm a classic car guy. I own a small business that restores classic cars, country boy, veteran, husband if 25 yrs, father of 3.

Do I know anyone here from other forums? (I'm northerndave in a bunch of forums).

A friend told me about this forum, he said the skin was a bit thicker here, which would be good .

Welcome northendave. I have a 56 merc that needs some tender loving care. I would say the skin is thick as a elephant if not thicker.

Thanks for the welcome, I recognize ditch from another forum, hi there!

A 56 Merc sounds very cool.

Current projects in my shop are a 69 Mach1 mustang, a 1958 Plymouth belvedere and a 69 Ford ranchero.



We have about -23 this morning, I see areas south of us got colder.

Some of you guys maybe remember HSO shenanigans such as the "technical questions" thread that went off the rails.

Perma banned, I don't think my children or even my grandchildren can sign up at those forums. Lmao!

Which raises a serious question...

I'm heading to lake of the woods next Friday, should I bring the auger extension or leave it at home?

:)

Last reports I got, you won't need an extension. Next week we will have a heat wave....

Hi Dave.  Are you sure you have enough room in your vehicle to bring an auger extension?  That is a big piece of equipment....  Welcome Dave...   Fun bunch of guys here.  Low stress....

Good call, extensions are so heavy too, why risk the additional weight right?

Welcome Dave. I think the extension might take up to much room. Bring a chisel instead to finish the bottom of the hole if you don't get thru with the auger. Much easier that way. ;) ;) :bonk: :bonk:

hey jerkbait, what are you hearing/seeing as far as the latest reports lake of the woods?

I'm waiting for springsteel to post this afternoon, they said they were going to check ice today.

Last I heard was 8-10 and that was Friday. I myself did not get out there this weekend. Decided to work on garage projects where it was warm. Being that I hung out inside I did not talk to any of the neighbors either. If I hear anything new I will report it.

Thanks! Maybe see you on the ice sometime.
