Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

Less fishing pressure....I remember growing up downstate in the Detroit metro area.... The freaking amount of people fishing the same lakes.... Like Union Lake and such was crazy.
The only way to get around it was to go fish the Detroit River.... Lake Erie and big places like that.... The walleye fishing on Lake Erie was awesome..... But you here it's more common to be the only boat on the lake.
Last night there was only a pontoon boat on the lake....a lot of people are fishing Bluegills.... They are convinced that the walleyes are gone in Little lake..... But I can assure you they aren't..... But you can't catch then jigging anymore.... For one the Bluegills are to numerous and won't leave your jigs alone.... We caught most of our walleye in 40 for of water..... Trolling crankbaits about 15 feet down..... Kinda hard to catch walleye that are suspended on jigs....
My son & his BIL fish a good bit for 'Eyes, & do fairly well. I've never gone when they were the target.
 
We must be twins...... My very first car was a1964 be Galaxie XL 500. With leather buckets front and back.... The steering wheel that slid out of the way so you can get in and out easier.... Reverb radio..... Yeah I'd like to have another.... Wish I'd known what those cars would be worth now......
My cousin had that same one. I had the 63 model. Same engine and everything. We would get out on the freeway at like 2 in the morning and let em fly. Every single time he would manage to creep out ahead of me and me trying to poke a hole through the floor boards.
 
I have only driven one of those once.... I was thirteen when I started too but with a Ford Galaxy 500. First to park the car in the garage...

Then to drive about a mile from a popular restaurant we used to go to... or the local speedy mart.

I still need to teach my son. I started him driving when he was about thirteen in my Big Truck. Diesel and a stick... Very forgiving for lugging. But not his interest...

My 1st set of wheels that was actually mine was a '59 Galaxy rag top. Real chick magnet; loved that car.
 
I am the same way.... (took your advice by the way) I have tried cat fish every which way.

I do like it breaded in corn meal and fried crisp in Bacon grease... but then I would like an old shoe cooked that way......

Tell me about current worth! I traded mine for a VW Beetle
 
I like about any kind of fish if it's filet out and fried. . we soak our cat fish in ice water and usually chunk it up more like nuggets to take out all the dark "mud vein" is what my family calls it. Corn meal with a touch of flour and whatever seasonings I decide to throw on it. Seasoned salt usually. Deep fry in peanut oil is what I prefer. Probably not too good for ya but it sure is yummy!
Don't forget the Old Bay
