It used to be my old 87 Ford Ranger (Itwas a stick and after losing my lower left leg I don't feel comfortable driving a stick with the prosthesis, som i sold it).  Now I either borrow my daughter Bridget's 95 S-10 pickup or load up the 83 Dodge Grand Caravan (both automatics).  I miss my truck...

After I put out today�s quote, I thought it might be fun to query the list as to what each of you use for your fishing car/truck.  I�m sure this will run the gamut from ragged pick ups and cars  to family cars/trucks to �custom� fishing vehicles and for the rich ones, maybe a HUMMER. LOL !   I�m just wondering what modifications have you made, if any, to your fishing vehicle to ease your trip to and from the stream and your overnight camping while fishing.  Mine is a 1996 4-door F350 diesel pick up.  I�ve added a big locking aluminum tool box on the bed, just behind the rear window. Here I carry a floor jack, 4-way lug wrench, heavy duty jumper cables, and a 10X12 tarp, just in case it�s needed.  Also I have my streamside fly tying kit, a sleeping bag, air mattress, pop-up dome tent, propane stove, Boy Scout Patrol cook kit, an extra fuel filter for the truck and an assortment of wrenches, etc. I also put all my fishing gear that I won�t use except my fly rods, which I store out of sight behind the rear seat.  Don�t want to run the chance of having my truck broken into when someone spies my fishing gear, like what happened to Del Roberts earlier this year.

 

LEMME HEAR FROM YOU � What�s your fishing vehicle ??? Any modifications ???

 

Have a Great Day

P.S. YES, I�M STILL A PRISONER IN MY OWN HOME � NO DRIVING, RIDING, ETC. TILL I go see my doc on the 12th. Hopefully he�ll clear me to resume my normal activities.    So . . . like I said earlier, I tie flies, manage the three swaps I�m currently meistering, play on the computer and lastly aggravate you guys.  Hey � a guy�s gotta do what he�s gotta do!



So much water, so little time!
