Age gets to all of us sooner or later. Going to sell my Lund and be a back seater for awhile.

Getting rid of the boat slip at Lewisville after March. Trailering and launching is more trouble than I like for the few hours that I can stand the heat.

See ad in for sale section.

Back seat is open anytime you want to go.

Sorry to hear that Mr. Paty. We caught a black striped crappie today at Granger. Never happened before. Thought you had ventured down her to CENTEX with out us knowing and put your mark on him with your permanent marker. Welcomed in my boat anytime sir.

Ernest, you helped me years ago when I needed it. It's time I repay you.

Sorry to hear this. Will anybody else be taking over as head of 'the Office'?

Well the crappie population is about to skyrocket. All kidding aside, you're a mentor to all of us, and I don't think you're going to have any trouble getting someone to open up an extra seat for a chance to fish with a legend of the sport.

Ernest,

Don't feel like you are alone. I can't stand the heat anymore either. I will keep my boat for awhile longer though. There are cooler days coming I hope.

Ernest my home lake is Ray Bob. Once we get some ramps open you can fish with me this fall.

Sorry to hear that as well, but you always have a front seat down here in the centex.

Ernest, since Texoma is now my home lake, you know you have a back seat anytime you want. Just give me a call. Heck, I'll even launch on the wrong side of the lake for you!!!

Well, you told me this news last night, and now I guess I believe it...Ernest Paty without a boat. Thought I'd never hear this.

I am no expert , but I am a better crappie fisherman for having spent a day on the
water with you and your DVD and all your posts,

if you want to fish Palestine , I will do my best to make it happen,
If I can't take you , I know several other fisherman that will.

You're welcome to join me bank side anytime,once it cools and the crappie show up in the creeks,and this should be a banner year for that!

We're not sure what will happen at "The Office". Our lease is up on March 31 and a lot will depend on the rules in effect at that time. They are talking about limiting the access cards to two per slip and that will kill us. With slip price over $4,000. per year we can't make it work with two members. They are also rebuilding all the old docks and we would have to move and rebuild all our condo's and cover.

I can't get that boat out of my eye. Need to wait but don't want to. Ernest you taught me a lot and helped me get started right. When I get a boat you are welcome. I'll even bring Net Girl to net our fish.
