  1. Thanks for the update. After 3 or 4 days I get squirrelly without one. The car siding looks very nice….hope I can still afford to come.

      1. I’m duly impressed with your efforts on Cabin 7. It reminds me of an old time cabin with new cabin charm. Will you be stocking it with the beautiful VBL Mugs from yesteryear?
        Andy is a bit of a soft-touch when it comes to appeals for financial support (such as your’s to the Perchmaster). He and I have talked and have decided to dedicate our entire September trip bill to the Cabin 7 Renovation Fund. We hope this enables you to find the motivation needed to spend lavishly on your guests.

  2. Teal River, Steve K. from Richland Center is joining us the third week in August. He will come armed with a few Teal River rods.

  3. Gord,
    I think you better secure a lease on an ice breaker boat. Clear the lake right up to about 100 yards of your competitors. Dustin doesn’t want to have to fish with an auger.

  4. Gord, if it is the tough economy getting in the way of the Perchmaster making a visit I truly feel for him. It has impacted a lot of people. However I have a solution. Hire him as a movie extra (volunteer carpenter), and post a video of him exiting the sauna on his way to the job site wearing an apron and singing YMCA. It might go viral and open up a whole new audience to VBL? I bet he can swing a hammer with the best of them.

    1. Andy, a carpenters apron would not work for the Perchmaster. You need butt cheeks, or at least some hip bones to hold it up. As far as the hammer idea, I’m not sure if he is capable of swinging something heavier than a 1/16 oz. jig head tipped with a piece of Chena bait……
