MIL was originally from Michigan and now in SW Colorado. She loves her bait fishing. Uses a John Boat in summer, but never uses a motor, electric or otherwise, and she likes oars and rowing on small lakes. She hauls her little boat out to her favorite lake in the pickup and launches it all by herself to fish all day long, then loads it back up and drives home.
In the winter, when her favorite lake is frozen, she spends a good part of the day out on it with her snow shovel, hand operated ice auger, stool, and thermos full of coffee.

:P :P She sounds like she is a pistol. Good for her. Fishing was our middle name when I was growing up. My Mom used to say that my Dad could ask her in the middle of the night if she wanted to go camping and fishing and by the time her feet hit the floor all five of us kids were in the car waiting. Don't do much now but still like to go. BrendaK
