Fishing Michigan

One of the reasons I went up to Bass Pro Shops yesterday was to pick up this deep fryer for cooking fish up outside.  Its a 10.5 qt model,  and came with everything you see plus a 5″ thermoter for $29.99.  Why cook outside, less mess and smell in the house.  it was easy to install, but you will need a 10mm nut dryer, wrench or socket.  That or a phillips screwdriver or large fathead.  Notice the extra support at the base?  Its designed not to tip over, plus for extra stability when used with a bigger pot for frying turkeys.

Is there an uglier time of the year than early spring?  On the way north yesterday, everywhere you looked was just ugly.  Everything is brown, the trash covered by snow on the roadside was everywhere,  just a dismal time of the year.

Last night I couldn’t even see the shop from the house through the snow

This morning, everything was beautiful again.

Could even see the shop through the trees

Bonnie, checking out all the birds in the trees that she just spooked off the bird feeder. 

So while everyone digs out, scrapes off, I will be all snuggled in gear getting ready for the next tournament on the Bay.
