When I am walleye fishing the east side of bago, I stop (as most of you are very aware of) at Pipe Express for some fried chicken.

Last week seen this 161,000 ton behemeth of metal. Usual coffee sipping folks had no idea. Maybe a special Merc secret project?

My money is on either a crane piece or something headin to the shipyards north. I didnt think 151 could handle that weight.

Curious.....and bored.

I believe that is the tip section to Chuck Norris' new fishing rod, since he alone is the only one man enough to handle it.

IT LOOKS TO ME LIKE IT COULD G3'S NEW TRANSOM FOR THEIR NEW 24' DEEP VEE. WALK THROUGH. I TALKED TO A SALES REP AND HE SAID THEIR CALLING IT THE ANGLER V 244 F MAX HORSE POWER IS TWIN V8 300 H.P. YAMAHA'S. I'VE SEEN PICTURES OF IT AND THESE PICS LOOK PRETTY CLOSE TO WHAT I SAW OF THE NEW BOAT. THE REP I TALKED TO SAID THAT WEIGHT WAS NO ISSUE. G3 IS SETTING THE BAR IN THE BOATING INDUSTRY AND THIS NEW V 244 IS ONE HELLEVA FISHING MACHINE.

Looks like something that would go on a drag line.

Mark,

No it's not my new boat... Skeeter does not make anything that light weight for Walleye fishing.

It actually fell off Santa's sleigh as he was delivering your presents....

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.
