If wasn't for bad luck..........you would have no luck.  You better tie some garlic around your neck :)    The licence plate made me laugh.  I lost a plate somewhere on the 90 heading for Ohio, on a wednesday. Fished on Mosquito lake (south of Ashtabula) then headed to Port Clinton.  Trailered the boat all over PC for a couple of days headed home on the following friday.   Over 750 miles, 3 states .........no ticket :rofl:

Hope your next day out goes much better

  Aint that the truth....new day new adventure......and what pissed me off about the whole thing is the cop was just being a total ass about it too.....walked around the truck, around the boat, looked inside the truck, looked inside the boat....He ran everything everything came back ok....I think he was just in one of those moods were damit someones going to get a ticket.....told him I must have lost it on the road somewere....so besides going to pugslys for a belt....I have to go to Lyons to the DMV for a new plate.....aint it grand......

Woody, if you want to get your boy out some evening while you are healing just send me a pm. I have a 19' blue fin and I'm still learning so maybe you can teach me a few tricks. I live 5 minutes from the bear creek launch and go out for a few hrs every evening I can get a chance after work. Paul

I'd keep thinking glass half full with the belt going way out there.  Not fun trying to find someone out there. BTW, make sure my boat gets fixed first at Pugsley's.  I brought it in yesterday.  No express line.  :)
