Andy May 4, 2011 at 5:39 pm Reply As one of your previous guests roared at the walleye madness week, “Bull s. This contest was rigged!” I will be sure to spill a cup of coffee on the Professors new hoodie at the first available opportunity. In fact, maybe I will do that before he is awarded his hoodie in September? Perchmaster, maybe you can be the first guest to “sign” his hoodie?
Teal River May 4, 2011 at 9:28 pm Reply Congratulations Professor! I will assume that your years of college and not any impropriety are the reason behind your success. I’ll also expect you to buy a round the next time we are at VBL together.
Perchmaster May 5, 2011 at 12:22 am Reply Hey Andy for you I will make sure my autograph is on it !!!! Great idea
Doug Lampi May 5, 2011 at 2:47 am Reply Wow. The last few days show a huge change in the ice out. Who will be the first to go for a swim?
Andy May 5, 2011 at 5:01 pm Reply This sore loser is amazed by the different weather patterns in Canada this year. My formula for an early April ice out on Eagle was based on the ice out date here on Mendota last year compared to the ice out on Eagle. If we had had the same lag this year, Eagle would have been open in early April. Its been a very cold winter in VB and that should bode well for the early anglers like the Perchmaster (you may be a little early this year for the perch?).
Perchmaster May 5, 2011 at 11:54 pm Reply You may be right Andy but we will get a few but should be greta for other fishing.
Professor May 5, 2011 at 5:15 pm Reply Of course, I’m thrilled to win the prestigious VBL Ice-Out Contest and look forward to parading about camp in my new hoodie at the end of August. I should point out that my strategy for deriving the ice-out date had nothing to do with my education or significant degree of impropriety in my life. Rather, my guidance came directly from the fish gods after a satisfactory ritualistic sacrifice was performed. I’ll shed more light on this topic soon. The bitter reaction from Andy is disconcerting, but not surprising. He is very competitive and expects to win every time. And he goes off when someone else wins. A few years ago, during the famous VBL Walleye Madness Tourney, I gradually closed the gap on the last day of competition and beat him by one point to win. He went nuts and started threatening others with his fillet knife. There are numerous other stories that I’d rather not share, except to note that it’s behavior like this that has caused Andy to be banned from most bingo halls in southern Wisconsin.
Andy May 6, 2011 at 8:08 pm Reply Perchmaster, If Gord whines about having to clean perch, have him watch this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-A-FgduE_T0&feature=related
Perchmaster May 6, 2011 at 9:40 pm Reply Maybe that is what I guy has to do is find some smelt and bring a 5 gallon bucket of those in, that would get him going for the day!!
Gord May 7, 2011 at 1:42 pm Reply Hey those look like the size of the perch the Perchmaster likes to keep! I wonder if they make those scissors in an Eagle Lake size?
Gord May 7, 2011 at 1:43 pm Reply ……..oh, by the way Andy, a computer guru such as yourself should at least be able to have your picture on your comments (maybe you can show the professor as well)
Andy May 12, 2011 at 9:40 pm Reply I will haved to dig and see if I can find a picture of the professor holding one of my fish for his gravatar.
Perchmaster May 13, 2011 at 6:06 pm Reply So the truth is out you do catch all the fish? The professor just sits back and complains and tells you what to do..
