Hey Phil?

[Roneichler]

You must be lookin for a new fishing buddy by now, with Mac dragging out this boat repair job for who know how long. Who in they're right mind would tear in to a bout repair job and the household kitchen remodeling at the sametime, just sound crazy to me. So if your starten to get the itch well just let some of your BBC buddies fill the void.. and this is probably a great place to interview a new fishing buddy.... I'm sure Mac Will understand you can't wait on him forever

He's probably done more fishing than I have. He may have done it from the bank but he still pulls in a couple. Phil and I are heading out Friday to run an errand and we could actually make a trip to the lake on Sunday...if he can get the free time.
My boat is almost all done. I'm changing the lower unit oil tonight and doing some touch up caulking around the hull/cap area on the transom. I'll be putting the seat in on Sat. and a little bit of wiring and she should be ready to go.
The cabinets are in. The countertop gets measured Friday and the appliances come on the 29th. The plumber comes the first week of May. Oh and the electrician will be done on Sat...I hope. Should be complete by the middle of May.
Looks like my season may have started late but It started off right yesterday

The back of the boat? What did I do to get tossed to the back of the boat?? I never make anyone fish from the back on my boat. I've even offered him the use of the boat when he took a vacation to Pawrockaway. Phil know's how to handle a boat and he can position a boat as good as anyone. Ron, You going to let him have the front on your boat so you can enjoy learning new styles of fishing? He's taught me and I'm sure you could learn from him as well

can you see my head swelling for where you guys are? Ron,I would love to get out with you sometime.Mac has never made me(or anyone that I know of) go to the back of the boat and I have hithim more than once with a frog. I go to the back for two reasons,Space and i'm not uncomfortable there. I have been out shore fishing about 10 times and got my first bite today,even saw a few fish jumping.

Phil, You might want to check their resumes before you fish with them.
