Cool Coins...

Do You Do Coins?

I posted a shot similar to this one on Twitpic earlier and it is now being seen on Twitter too. :-) Do You have a little coin collection going on out there? Wanna trade a few coins?

Here are some of my favs...

Some sweet metal...

Tall Mullien plants or what, eh?

Mullien Patch Picture...

Where the Mullien grows tall...

Bassin' talk and Tipi's too...

Tipi's and Bassin'...

Al Lindner has been pretty well my main Fishing Hero for over three decades now and I'm still totally amazed at what this man has done, in the World of Fishing! I bought this sweet little Bassin' Book Bassin' with Al...

a number of years ago and it's helped me uncover many of the mysteries of how to catch Bass, many times. :-) I recommend this little pocketbook to any serious Bass Fisherman, anywhere! It has helped a lot of people catch a lot of Bass. :-)

I remember when Al first told us all about "back-trolling" and how you gained boat and lure control, using it, he opened up a few doors and channels in my mind about this whole Fishing thing. :-) The neat little plug in these pictures is the first crank-bait/plug, that I ever worked on to help make it catch more fish for me. It's an old Heddon Prowler, a floater diver lure which you can't even buy anymore, that I've re-hooked, with a single, treble hook on the belly hanger. No hook on the tail of this lure either. That makes it swim with it's butt ridin' up a little higher, and it's nose diving a little deeper. It makes it wiggle a little faster and wider too, with no weight on the tail section. Also it's WAY less dangerous when you're lippin' bass on this rig than it is with a normal crank-bait all decked out in treble city. :-)

Fishin' Stuff...

Oh, here's a link to another picture of my favorite Tipi book, which I put up on Twitter through the magic of Twitpic, over at TwitPic which is a very Cool place, by the way, to download Your favorite photos and then have them sent to Twitter to add to your 140 character blurbs over there! It's totally easy, fast and powerful. As well, it's another FREE service to add to Your pile of Twitter goodies! and y'all know how I just Loves da Free stuff, eh! ;-)

Go check 'em out and see how You like 'em. I Love 'em! :-)

Inversion Therapy for Back Pain...

Anybody out there with a sore back?

Well, I for one, have had my share of back problems over the years. I KNOW just how much pain that can consist of and how it affects everything. How you walk, how you stand, sit or lay down, for that matter. Well, fellow sore back suffers, This idea looks like just what I have been lookin' for all these years!

I've experimented on my own body/back, with a few different things to ease my back pain and I've found that hanging for a few seconds from my doorway, seems to be the closest I've come so far, to this cool system. This Teeter unit looks a whole lot easier.
Anyway, check it out. Seems like a lot of happy people think it works pretty good on them. ;-)

Inversion Therapy for Back Pain - Do Teeter Inversion Tables Really Work?

Hmmmm. Any Teeter Dealers out there in the Ottawa area? :-)

Lures and Grandfather...

A pair of Pretty Faces...

Some Silver & Gold...

Well Rapped, or what, eh? :-)

Truth be known, if I had to pick only one crankbait (plug) out of my boxes, to fish with all day, it would have to be This particularily sweet little puppy, hands down! No guff here friends. I know this lure, intimitely and it's totally hand-tweaked for maximum efficiency, as you can well see in this picture. :-) Yes sir, Rapala's Shad Rap is my money bait, if I just have to catch a few fish, of any species, that eat minnows!

These shades are also Top Notch outdoors equipment that are a large part of my EDC stuff. That's Every Day Carry, for those folks not familiar with the abbreviation. Surprisingly perhaps to some, these well fitted and drilled hole frames, polaroid lenses and rubber nose pieces , add up to less cash than a spool of good line. I've had these Tortoise shell jobbies for three years now and still Love'em! :-)

Here's a pair of real cuties that have certainly earned their keep in this man's tiny tackle boxes. The boy on the right is the smallest Big-O made, to the best of my knowledge. IF it is still being made, even?

Two Bad Boys...

And now, I'll leave you with a good read, formulated by one of my favorite woodsmen/writers/teachers alive to-day...

Tom Brown Jr. Some of the stuff Tom shares with his readers could only have been done by Grandfather! What an amazing man he was!

Larry Bass - Canadian - Survivalist

Woa! Just found this old semi-forgotten web-page five minutes ago through Google and I grabbed the source code for it because I'll have to re-do it. Maxpages, the guys that gave me the Free web hosting for this page, no longer exist, as such. :-(

I tried to get in there a few years back to edit this web-page but that didn't happen. So, I hope to re-create it, using my original source code and maybe even turn it into a Squidoo Lens or Hubpage. :-) However, until I get that done, here's the hyper-link to SurvivalStop , my first Survival related web site.
