Spanish Fly Capitan took me fishing several times. He really knew his trade and had a great TV show.

Football and Winter Outdoor Sports Opportunities Safer and More Comfortable With Click-It Hot

The morning is for fishing in our back yard pond and the evening is for wearing our Dolphin hat while we cheer for our Florida team;the Miami Dolphins!
Barb is wearing a shoulder model that also has a neck flap. This item can last more than 2-hours in heat mode and can be activated fully in mere seconds as all the other models are.

APtravelnews-November 27th, “Bob and Barb on the Road Again”- The day after T.G. Day, we are getting ready for the football season again. With the latest cold-front kicking in, Barb and I got out our Click-It Hot heating and warming units to pack for our trip to a Miami Dolphins game. Look, if Barb is wearing a shoulder model that also has a neck flap she is going to be comfortable in blowing wind, and evenings dropping temperatures. This item can last more than 2-hours in heat mode and can be activated fully in mere seconds, as all the other models are. If you’re going to be seated on a metal or stark wooden seat this time of year, you’ll want to be warm enough to be comfortable. Nowhere is warmth and comfort more important than in Ice fishing. The season is slowly building as waters have begun to freeze in thousands of lakes and ponds of the north country. Imagine sitting on a seat out on the ice jigging for pike, perch and trout. Often temperatures reach down to double digit below freezing conditions. The near instant 130-degrees temperatures generated by the various sizes of Click-It Hot can be much more than offering a comfort level to the user, it also can and is a life-saver. Just ask anyone who has had an instance of frozen extremities, and skirted, or felt the onset of Hypothermia how valuable a near- instant heat source in their pockets has been, or could be and without a doubt, their reaction would be surprise even that this question was asked. We know that keeping a few Click-It Hot hand warmers inside our glove compartment and stored, on or in our outdoor vehicles, back packs, boats, and a few stored in our sleeping bags can be a whole lot more than a convenience. For direct ordering, or finding out about the many shows you can obtain Click-It Hot products at in your area and to get more information go: www.clickIt Hot.com

NOTE* If you think Click-It Hot is only for warmth, you’d be forgetting that they can also be used cold. The same units can be refrigerated and if soothing cold is needed as in a head-bump or abrasions these units can be the beswt way to keep down the swelling in these areas!

Backyard Thanksgiving Fun With the Neighbors!

My favorite lures! Al's Goldfish and their new Living Lures are hooking and holding our backyard neighbors.

APtravelnews- Bob & Barb “Stopping to Smell The Roses” in our backyard images–November 26th, Port St Lucie, FL-OK! I know, goofy about fishing and all things involved in fooling the finicky and the foolhardy gluttons too! I know Largemouth are touted as being finicky feeders, yet i found a lure group that slays them (I carefully release all top predators, bass are in that category) with ease.  Just 15-feet from our screen door lanai, down a slightly sloping grass backyard, lies a very large rain holding pond. This 10-acre pond is interconnected with several additional ponds in our private, HOA (hate HOA, except the ponds are protected from unabated, indiscriminate catch and take use) neighborhood.  When I want to check out anything I offer it to my dozens of backyard neighbors; Largemouth, giant brim, and the invasive, but fun loving Peacock bass. Of all the many hard and soft lures I’ve tried and had fine success with, nothing has been more consistent in having a neighbor visit their side of the pond mud and weed than by them accepting the invitation I offer with AL’s Goldfish Co. lures. We will also be testing these lures in the Keys with our son and daughter Brian and Diane on our Mako. Stay tuned to see if our old neighbors when we lived in the Keys will come to visit again!   For a good look at AL’s Goldfish Co. go: www.alsgoldfish.com 

Barb loves to fish when she has an edge and doesn't have the whole day to hopefully hook a neighbor with shoulders enough for us to spar with! She has become an Al's lover too!

She's laughing so hard, she is almost crying. We were trying to train our little Terry "the Terror" to be a hunting dog. He licked our chicken! Never became a hunting dog, just a great lover who is very loved! Same dog that saved my life when he grew up. Ask me about this in comments!
