That's one toothbar! Seems teeth density is higher than the ones I've seen. Did you get that somewhere special?

Also, being brought up in Southwestern Ohio, I have very fond memories of fishing farm ponds in south Indiana.

Buck, that's an ezattachments landscaper toothbar...with 18 teeth. A regular bar would have had only 7 teeth for that bucket. I keep waiting for the day I accidentally bump into those...ouch. I like the extra teeth...as I can backdrag my driveway with pretty good results, and have also used it to cut in a road...but you have to learn the subtle angle needed, else you will bury it pretty quickly.

I know what you mean about the farm ponds...that's where a lot of us did our first fishing...and bluegill are great for kids to catch. I got back into light line tackle and fishing a few yrs ago, and thouroughly enjoy the action that comes out of that. Although tedious to filet, the eating rewards are great.

And then of course, with a 5 gallon bucket of fish remains, I just threw the bucket into the loader and fired up the tractor, and hauled them to the back field. I usually just lay them on the ground for Hawks and other animals to eat. Of course I could have fired up the backhoe. The joy of having a tractor.

It's just amazing what these new compact tractors can do for a feller! Willie Jones /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

That's right Willie, I used to have to cut off my fishing day early as I was afraid of lifting the cooler. Now, looks like I have that problem solved. I'm sure this Branson will improve my fishing.
