    Don't worry boys and girls.  I won't be fishing again for a couple of weeks.  You can take a rest from looking over your shoulders for a while.   Or can you?

All those silly questions were brought up for a reason. I'm guessing somebodies blood pressure raised a little though.

Yes, they were brought up just to try and  :censored: me off.  :moon:

And yes, my blood pressure did go up a little...But, then again, I just consider the source.  :rotflmao:

I heard he will be fishing for Lake Trout. :fishing2:  I'm not going to say nothing to him. What a surprise he's going to get when he tries to enter one in The Challenge. :cry:   Well, that's what happens when some folks around here don't read the rules and try to insert their own interpretations. :banghead:

From what I've heard from the grapevine it seems that the pressure of maintaining the first place spot in the challenge has become burdensome for team seal poo. :surrender:  I'm figuring sometime near the beginning of next week the relief team will be ready to step in and take their rightful place.

Who will it be? If you would like to place your guesses on this thread please do so.

:scratch: My guess will be Team...................?

It is a nice Bass. I'm sure the judges will get to it so relax. They may be having a problem reading the ruler since it's fuzzy. One judge could be waiting for a 2nd or 3rd opinion to get it right. All judges are not around on weekends. :happy1:

It won't matter who SEALTeam 6 "loans" the lead to for a bit, because at the end you'll see our three smiling faces waving to the rest of the Challenge teams from the top (where we rightfully belong)

Just came back in the house for a heat relief break after working on the boat since 6:00 am. I can't believe what I just read from 2 of the seal poo team members. They are talking as if they agree that they will be relinquishing the first place slot soon. The minute a team begins to back peddle like that it's over for them. Next will come the internal fighting followed by a communications meltdown. I would hate to see a team self destruct like that.  :banghead:     It really saddens me  :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

Lee did ya lose your spectacles up there in God's Country?   :doah: I don't see anyone from Team Six saying anything about giving up no lead. I don't know how we can be backpedaling either as you can't take away our inches.   :rotflmao: Unless you are using some of that there government math you have to catch us, we don't have to fall back. Better give Borgie her cheater glasses back and find your own so you can read what the scoreboard says. I will post it everyday just to remind you..

DDS was out fishing one day, he was casting along a quiet marsh shoreline with six foot tall cattails pushing their way into gin colored calm water. Using one of his homemade jigs he had a white twister tail hanging from the wide gap hook. He would toss it up close to the cattails and then slowly work it back to his rented boat. Blackbirds were hanging from cattails and calling out to him as he worked his way past them and down the shoreline. Frogs could be heard croaking deep in the marsh and a lone loon crashed landed in the open water behind him. It called out to him, repeatedly but DDS ignored the loons calls and continued to toss his jig towards the bank. A bump was felt and as DDS lifted the rod he felt some weight, Setting the hook with gusto he stood up in the rental boat and put his foot on the gunnel for more leverage. A bass broke the surface and with head wagging like a Saint Bernard water flew from the fishes lips to spray across the lake and on to DDS. With the heavy fish muscled to the boat and with the rod bowed DDS reached down to slip his thumb into the giants wet mouth but could not pull the fish into the boat. Again he tried and again he failed, a sharp pain in his shoulder made him stop and he open his eyes to look down at his dentist chair and his patient pounding him on his shoulder. DDS thumb was buried in the man's mouth and his foot was up against the side of the chair. The man was making weird gurgling sounds and spraying DDS with the rinse wand....   :sorry: DDS it was just all a dream, a daydream!
