What can I say Lee, I am always nice to Borgie. Sooner or later I will end up on a team with her and I don't want to have to fear the "Beatdown" Actually I am wondering what it would be like to fish on a team with Borgie and the Walleye Woman  :bonk:  But I have a feeling the best teammate for the ladies would be either Wild or DDS I would pay to be a little mouse on that boat.. I can see them now all sitting in the boat  :titanic: with Walleye Women and Borgie with their knitting as they direct Wild or DDS to Knit and Purl or maybe just Wild to work on his Eyelet and Lace pattern.. :coffee:

at lest i would have  team mattes that will post  :Fish:  :happy1: as to Bobby and Lee with Nothing!!!!!  :doah:

i was wondering when the Wild man  :dancinred: was going to say something. Guess I am still waiting.. I have a   :censored: on my Wild post that does not let me read anything that starts or ends with Me, Myself or I so most of Wilds posts are pretty much blank  :coffee:  DDS  posts are   :censored: when he talks about fish he almost caught and the General, well he is just plain   :censored: for the  :censored: of it  :rotflmao:  Lee and Great are not touched as I like to read the mumblings of old fishermen  :toast:

Next year I may or may not give willy a chance at a 2014 Top Gun Challenge. That of course depends if he decides to play nice next year and can offer a simple yes or no answer to my challenge. No stalling or shuckin and jiving like this year. :doah:

                        I Knew it....I Knew it....I Knew it!

I noticed that this fish board would be perfict for DDS because it only goes up to 13".  I mean we all know that his fish never reach over 12". So, that would give him a goal to shoot for the extra 1". Kind a like a carrot in front of his nose. Now for the bad news! I heard that DDS want's to make it manditory to use this 13" board for next years Challenge. This way he would have a better chance to compete.
                                                    
Features:
Flattened nose surface ensures precise measurement
Raised grip lines prevent slippage and increases control
Curved thumb press stops flop and protects fish
Right or left handed thumb guides
Funnel arms don’t let fish flop out
Highlighted box marks legal 9'' to 10'' measure
Wide entry
Nose shield prevents fish's nose from curling
Extra-long design lets you measure fish up to 13''
Gap between nose and sides allow nose adjustments

Did I say that already? :whistling:

Just in case this weather persists on the cold side, is it OK to post fish caught through the ice on or after May 11th? Doesn't say anything in the rules about it having to be open water. ;)

  Yep.  Walleye and pike are good to go as of May 11th 2013.  Read the rules for the bass opener. I don't recall the exact date.

Since DDS has never posted a fish that counted towards his team's total, you must have taken it from his door. ;)
