a reply from the legend himself (!!!) AND a link to a new (for me) fishing forum?!? it's like Christmas morning!!

thanks to all who have replied, I know you're busy. I will check out Jeff's rental. just need a little 15-footer...but also looking for canoes!

how have the bugs been? came up in June last year and the skeeters were unbearable.

I always check the weather in Butternut and it looks like you're having a GORGEOUS day! wish I were there!!
