I'm with you on seeing those big, healthy Walleyes. Beautiful fish! Very cool that you're working to increase the population.

Considering I sold my RMK this winter it would be nice to have one again, just in case we actually get a big snow year, but I suspect that cash flow needs would overrule that wish. Thanks Mezz, I’m kicking around some changes to the Kawasaki that aren’t big but would give it the look I would be...

Crazy how it could spend all these years at the bottom. Interior door panels still look nice and it looks like the hubcaps are all there :).

Seems like spring has arrived in some parts of the country but there’s not much evidence here. Got the 250 back together and since there is some snow left I decided to take it out for a short test blast. Still have a couple of things to check out and then I’ll have to decide if it goes on the...

Thanks Mr. Clark. We also caught and released some nice, fat, 20 - 23" slot Walleyes. These fish are eating well. My friend caught more slot fish but I managed to haul up not one, but two crayfish that grabbed my minnow and wouldn't let go. These things give me the creeps but the Walleyes...

Thought you fishing guys might appreciate this. After a two-year absence due to family medical issues, my fishing buddy was finally able to make a trip up so we hit the Canadian side of Lake of the Woods earlier this week for some ice fishing. The fish were hungry and we caught a lot of fish...

It might be a sickness but I love a good blizzard. It's been years since I've seen anything like what you're having in WI. Suppose I would feel differently if I lived in the U.P. :)

Gary, it’s remarkable that you were able to find such an amazing likeness, although, in fairness I think my quads have a little better definition. It does pay respect to the weight of having to make such difficult decisions though. FYI Whitedust, I could never hit a knuckleball :). Blade, wow...

I wouldn't mind having a mid-late 90's Polaris triple in some form, maybe an XCR, XLT or Ultra. Lot's of them available yet at some good prices. I have to stop checking Marketplace. I'm like a kid in a candy store.

I haven't said much about this sled on the site over the years so I will message you some info on it. Exactly. I don't see anything wrong with finally getting a sled you dreamed about, 50 years late :). And if you do get it restored, it's like having a brand new one. My advice would be that...

I knew I could count on you guys for good feedback. Some of my favorite things about these projects have become the conversations that occur along the way and the interest that has been shown in the sleds of yesteryear. I hope the website continues to operate because it has provided a unique...

The trails around here are bare in a lot of spots and barring a good 10 – 12” dump, we’re done for the year. Already thinking about what next year will bring. The real question is whether or not, I’m up to taking on another major project, both physically and financially, because I won’t start...

These are the riding days we all dream about.

Thanks Mark. Yes, there were a LOT of nice sleds on the rides and at the show. Paul, from the Boondock Inn, along with help from Dan (DWZ), and a few other volunteers, work hard to make this event happen and their effort shows in how smoothly it runs. On the ride the day before the show, I...

The Discussion board is actually a separate website (johndeeforum.com) from the primary website (johndee.com) whereas the other features are contained within the primary website. You can actually access the Discussion board without going through the main website but when you click on the “enter”...

Thanks guys, people did like the Chaparral. Like Mezz said, there is just something about this sled that people finding appealing. And yes Mezz, there was no shortage of snow.:) Yeah, the 90’s and early 2000’s sleds are getting more popular every year and it doesn’t seem possible that these...

Day 3 was the vintage/classic show day at the Boondock Inn. I had planned to add a few photos and details here but I decided that the video I had been working on would do a better job of covering the day. If you’re not into old sleds, you probably wouldn’t find this video very interesting. But...

Very Nice!

It's a link to more trail ride shots taken by the Wandering Michigan photographers. Cool stuff if you can find a friend that can log in and use the link. Good guesses but it’s really hard to pick out from this photo so here’s the story and it kind of ties into the Toolbox thread. At a...

Yep, that would have been the group. Had to be a flashback, riding into that not knowing what was going on. The weather for the trail ride on day 2 was spectacular, brilliant sunshine and almost tropical weather. The trail we took for most of the route had been groomed Thursday night and was...
