Alot of work, some family issues, and something else took me off the forum for a while but I still managed to cook on the Egg many times. I received a phone call the other day from a buddy on the forum...and say what you want, but those guys from Texas ain't so bad...except when they play a team from the SEC. :laugh:

Here's the new handles from Mikeb and pops - man, the cartoons are on 24/7 out on the deck now. Great job - now if I could find a large with some extra curves, I'd name it Velma!

and of course - Scrappy Doo

The "dogs" did some cooking tonight - first time I've been home before dark in a long time. Scooby ate up some Crab and Clam Cakes stuffed clam shells while Scrappy took care of two huge pieces of Salmon! No pics of the Salmon...well, just had a brain fart and forgot to snap one but got one of the shells.

Great eats - added some steamed "as-per-grass" for the side...the family was fat and happy around 7:30pm.

For those interested - the boat is finished and has been in the water some. Awesome fun - it's a wild ride running almost 60 mph sitting about 2' off the water! :) A few fish caught...but boy is it cold on the lake!

Be good guys and have fun on the forum -

PS - Again - thanks for the concern and phone call my Texas Connection

    Several things - first...hell yeah I made them! You act like we have monkeys cooking around here. :)

    Crappie biting soon...they start to defrost around here in about another 2 weeks...white bass too...spotted bass about to get crazy and the stripers will be on top. Damn I love this lake!

    Already spawning in SoCal...those California bass have been labeled "whales" here in Georgia. Those suckers grow big out there. Take some pics if you get hold of a good one and send to me. Hey - you might have a big benz of a bassboat but I have a porsche! Yeah - I'm tickled to death with how it turned out and how it performs.

    Great to be back - rsmdale and Hoss - we need to get on the water together if we ever can. Now that would be funny!
