Dotd, I understand about time to worry and work when at home--and sure do understand the relaxation of being away.

That sure is a nice bass there, and as a kid I was called the perch (that is what they call them in my family)king because I could catch them anywhere and on anything. I really think it had to do with me making my own corks that mimicked dead wood instead of colored floats. Who knows, I do know I would not go hungry as long as there is a pond, lake or stream!
