fair haven (bluewater bait)

[explodingvarmints]

i just drove down past the old bud's bar and blue water bait (launch). holy shanty town out there:yikes: , there must have been more than a 100 shanty's scattered all over the place:confused: . my lord, they must either be killing fish and word spread very fast......... or there are just that many people layed off and out of work. i didn't stop at the bait shop to ask any questions because they were a hoppin. anyone have a clue as to why it looks like a sunday out there on a thursday?

Unofficial michigan unemployment 7.3 percent.The true figure is closer to 20 percent or 1,100,001 icefisherman.I just got laid off yesterday.Thank your republican president for a fine Michigan welcome to a second term.Now only if my name were beer,bait or ice, i could make a fortune.see you out there tommorrow. signed. the rest of the unemployed.

Wow - the president laid you off! Were you a cabinet member?

[explodingvarmints]

yeah i guess i have not been there on the weekend for a while (on good days). i must confess....... i used to be one of the *****holes on sleds ripping back and forth untill i was born again....... at the church of frozen water:lol: :chillin: . i have seen the error and sin of my ways as a weekend ice racer and now i am closer with the fish gods. oh and for the political aspect of this segment..... who is or gov. ?????? oh yeah moly granholm........ oh yeah....... democrat....... michigan hurting....... oh yeah...... politics suck and i am sorry to hear of all of the good people getting layed off or fired....... best of luck for you and your families.

Hope to hear a good report from you guys going out tomorrow, please post a report, good or bad

[double trouble]

the rich get richer and the poor get to go fishing.when the chinese take over I just hope that they don't treat l.s.c. like they treat the yantze(sp) and no , president bush and his policies had nothing to do with my predicament or any of the other 65 million unemployed. i wish the best for all.just get me a good report so i can get 2 jumbo's for every pot and peace on earth. :help:

[willie]

were is CLINTON when you need him :fish2: :gaga: :bowdown: wish KWAME was running the big three we would all be rich $25.000 a year lease wonder why he's laying city workers off???.looks like the city and state have money to bury er i mean burn.those poor people.must be frustrating(slap in the face) think about the people that rely on mass trasit to get to there jobs that they hope are there next week.sure hope the people of detroit lay him off.

Sharpmaz,welcome to the site, you'll like it here.

DT. When the chinese get here all they eat is fish heads and rice, so don't throw the heads away after you clean your fish there will be a use for them.

Hey Guys Cheer Up!
When China and Japan have all our manufacturing power the rich will all be poor and the struggle for survial will begin in the Unitied States. But think of it this way. All of us who can shoot or catch dinner can make money by selling one of the basic requirements of life..............FOOD to all those who purchased overseas goods, like Honda's and Toyoto's.
