    Walleyes for Tomorrow

    I'm not a biologist or a math major but that ratio sounds pretty sad. Is that a normal mortality rate for the number of fish stocked or just an educated guess?

    Knee Replacement Surgery - Anyone?

    Glad to hear that it went well mezz. If you keep it iced you will find P/T a lot more tolerable. When I went through it I got an ice machine wrap and I looked forward to using it several times a day. It helped and I recommend renting one. I think it was a couple of hundred for about 4 weeks...

    Knee Replacement Surgery - Anyone?

    Hey mezz, the sleep comment was just in general. Its not a comfort thing because the knee is pretty much pain free. During follow up appointments, the surgeon asked about any problems or concerns. I said sleep was a problem and he said that it was his experience with 30 years of doing knee...

    Knee Replacement Surgery - Anyone?

    I had right knee (total) replaced in July 2020 after numerous minor scope surgeries to fix torn meniscus. Illinois Bone and Joint did the surgery. I walked/hobbled out of the outpatient surgery a few hours later. Rehab started the next day. Within 4 weeks I was back to a somewhat normal life. No...

    How I Spent My Tuesday

    Hey Gary in Neenah, thanks for the positive post and comments about law enforcement in todays society. I will rarely talk about what I did for a living to people that I meet which is kind of sad because once upon a time in 1985, I was a proud young police officer. I went on the job at 21 years...

    Vilas or Bayfield?

    Snow just starting to fly in Presque Isle at 11:00. Barely above zero. Hit the trails yesterday before all of the weekend warriors get up here and grab a handful of throttle. Presque Isle trails excellent except for a short stretch of 6W where they are logging near Carlin Club. Not pretty seeing...

    I spoke with an Upper Peninsula Conservation Officer yesterday regarding the trail permit issue. She stated that the wardens have scanners to check the permits and the only information available to her would be who bought the permit, not the sled that it is attached to.

    Packers & 49ers: Thoughts?

    Unfortunate as it may be, this is what to happens to the Packers when they have a head coach thats focused on being a cheerleader along the sideline for the crowd instead of worrying about simple things for the special teams like a field goal or getting a punt off without having it blocked. Head...
