Summary of today's events..

First of all..after playing back the video..I realized I could have used some better words for expressing myself. Please except my apologies..

We had a great time. It's been a while for us when the fish actually cooperated.Matt bought the bait so he was rewarded with the fish.The 2 biggest crappie were both a tad over 13 inches .he caught one and so did I as seen on the video.The 2 cats were both in the 20 inch range..Total amount of crappie kept..9 and catfish 2. A bald eagle also flew right over our heads which was very nice. My boat began to leak..and pretty bad so we cut the trip a little short.I plan to get out the JB Welder again . I will be getting a 3000. dollar check from State Farm next week or as soon as I desire to pick it up .It's about my back when I was hit by a car.So ,I'm in the market for a new Jon boat.MUST BE WELDED / NOT RIVITED..why?? they hold twice the amount of weight. My crappie pit has no ramp so I don't want a boat that Matt and I can't carry..I'm looking for a newish /new 12 foot jon.with a new trailor..I got 3000. to shop with.

Lowes makes a Red Neck weld jon and Polar Kraft does as well.There are no close Alumaweld businesses in Florida..that's a northern business. Does anyone know of anyother welded Jon's built for BIG people.{ -; besides Bass Tracker..we couldn't carry one of thoseLOL
