Since the addition of the license plate for the last place finisher in our work fantasy league, it's become more important to not be last than to win! Lol. Also, the league champ gets to pick out the plate. Here's last season's loser.

Stopped in Terre Haute this evening. They didn't have much but we picked up a few items. I had never seen the Baitmate infused baits before.

I think it will be. He had it for $100 but he couldn't find the title so he offered to drop the price. He said if he does find the title it will still be $75. He had bought it to make a kayak trailer but never got around to it. He mentioned that his kayaks were all in Florida anyhow at a place called Crystal River and I knew exactly where he was talking about. That's one of the places on my bucket list to fish and it's also where you can pick up scallops during the season. It's only about 60 miles due west of my place. We got to talking and he was recently widowed. It was pretty heartbreaking to listen to. Him and his wife had just retired and spent their first winter in Florida and then she passed away. I hear these stories way to often. I went home and told Gail about the stuff he had and she wanted to go back even though she hasn't been feeling well. He had a really nice gas golf cart with a new lift kit, tires, and wheels that Gail would have probably bought, but it was gone when we got there. He does still have a super nice 2017 Ford Coachmen mini motorhome for sale for $45,000 that is like new if anyone is looking. It's got the Ford EcoBoost 6 cylinder in it and only has 8,000 miles. We did pick up a toolbox, big Plano box, and a welded stand Gail wants to make a bench out of for cheap.

Picked this combo up recently and finally tried it out last weekend. Happy with it so far. I see Academy currently has it listed for $59.99

Stopped at a yardsale up the road today and picked up an old jetski trailer for $75. I think it will be the perfect size for Gail's Pelican jonboat. Gonna try to set it up to where I can use it for the boat or kayak.

I knew better than to get the birds while I was working. I was assured that if I left detailed instructions on what to do with them they would be fine. That wasn't the case. It's my fault...I knew better. As of this evening there's 7 still alive. Surprised there's that many with the way they looked the first evening I got home from work. Oh well. Live and learn.

My little chickadees are en route! Hopefully it all goes well. I don't have a lot of confidence in my local post office though.

Went to the woods pond this evening and kept 8 fat crappie that Gail is frying up as I type. Caught on Big Bite Baits jigs and beetle spin tipped with beemoth. Also caught several bass and bluegill.

Went to the ponds for a bit just before dark this evening. Gail fished the woods pond from the boat and I fished the other. I got into the gills and probably caught a dozen on a white beetle spin. Gail was using live bait and didn't catch as many but they had better size.

My, oh, my! I just got to thinking about when was the last time I fished down there. So I went back and revisited some old posts. I came across this one and this is the last time I was down there. It's been 5 years! 5 damn years! I need to get back soon. Yep, I knew it had been that long because I met Gail about a month after that IA get together and we've been together 5 years now. Crazy!

Welp...chukar order has now been moved to June 15th. Not sure what the holdup is. With 3 or 4 months for the birds to be full grown it's gonna be hunting season before these would even be ready.

NICE catch!! I've been itching to get over there but I'm afraid the water temps will be to high by the time I'm off again.
