Whoo Hooo I got one! - idahoron - 01-09-2012 My first skunk of the year. And it stunk bad. I took my fishing bike that I picked up last summer. I decked it out to sturgeon fish at Auger falls. Well I got there but I didn't have the bike adjusted right. The seat was way too low and that made the peddling hard and it was tipped too far forward. Anyway,,, I got there and I had old bait. I was going to get new bait but my son didn't work today at the hatchery. I fished for about 3 hours and gave up. It was DANG cold in the shade with the wind. When I got back to the truck I saw that my old weather checked tires were about to blow. I stopped by wally world and picked up new ones. They cost 40 bucks! DANG I only paid 5 dollars for the bike! Anyway I got everything fixed I hope. Next time I will go get new bait. My first skunk of the year is done, in the can, nothing but net. No matter how I try to make it sound good it still sucked. I got several good comments on the bike though. Ron [signature] Re: [idahoron] Whoo Hooo I got one! - MMDon - 01-09-2012 Cool rig Ron! You'll get em next time!!!

Better, buy you some Mr. tuffy's and slime now. Believe me a flat tire is just around the corner. It is funny how a inexpensive or free bike ends up costing us money. I like the sit up. I have one very similar on my scooter. I might dig it out if the weather stays like this. Idaho [signature] Re: [idahoron] Whoo Hooo I got one! - FishKillr - 01-09-2012 That thing is AWESOME! [signature] Re: [idahoron] Whoo Hooo I got one! - drowning_flys - 01-09-2012 Great looking rig, I have made that walk a few times looks like you made it much faster [laugh] [signature] Re: [idahoron] Whoo Hooo I got one! - CoyoteSpinner - 01-10-2012 Very nice. I mean the skunk not the bike. Wait a minture, reverse that - yeah! Makes me think of Toadly and his Willard bay shoreline Wiper chases! Kewl beans man! So - do you troll with that thing? Maybe some side-planer-boards? Does it have a nice jingly bell to let folks know you are coming? Maybe a horn to make 'em jump! I was impressed with easterners and their dock fishing cart setups. Takes all kinds I guess! The mudder of invention! PS: I gave up on replacing tires and got my kids the solid rubber type. $20 a pop, but a one time fee! And with shocks these days, not like you have to rely on the air-filled tubes to handle bumps in the road (or trail). Re: [idahoron] Whoo Hooo I got one! - toadly - 01-10-2012 Sure like your pole holders. I worry about the my bike tipping over and damaging the reels and rods. But mine is for Willard, You are most likley taking both your with you. ? Not a bad investment only $45.00 so far. At Willard I had to get some heavy duty tubes with the Slim already in them. Sure beats walking home pushing my bike. [signature]
