Must have looked at my 2010 trip in the gallery. that was our best year for quantity of big pike. But last year 2013 we had a banner year for LT and had 2 personal records for pike, 45" for me and a 45" and 46" for my son.....however, mine was measured with a mark on the canoe paddle, since my son had conveniently left the tape back in camp.

those come in 36" and 60" sizes...of course I would need the 60 in size and have to stick it to the bottom of the canoe. I've been using the plastic tape measure from my wife.s sewing kit. shhh!

seams  to work well

Yumm!   

I bought some of this stuff to have in my home repair kit. Used it on a broken shovel handle just to see if it worked as advertised. It did work, and better than I thought it would. Handle wasn't broken cleanly in two, it was split on a sharp angle like most wood poles would split. I let it set for the full 24 hrs becasue I was going to use it hard, but at 10 minutes it was "hard set", and I probably could of used it sooner with some care? Might be a good addition to a canoe repair kit?

You know. . .after all of this preparation anticipation, it's a doggone shame we aren't going to get a taste of this luscious blueberry pie!
