Only in the Northwoods

• The smelt are running in Lake Superior so there was a beat up truck in a parking lot selling them.  Case slows.  I say, "We can't buy smelt on the way to church and have them sit in the backseat for a couple of hours, can we?"  Case continues to slow.  I state, "No, we can't."  On the way home from church the truck was already gone.  This goes to show you that prayer works.  
• Ads are starting up for Mother's Day gifts.  A new fishing pole seems to be the going thing.  
• The DNR set up a net in our bay of the lake.  They caught huge muskies, removed the eggs and milt, returned the fish to the lake and then took the eggs and milt to the state fish hatchery in Spooner, WI where all the muskies for the entire state are raised.  Wowzer!
• To complete my piscine blog today, Case is cooking talpia (from the store) for dinner tonight.
