What about Ernie, his handle name is "mendohead". Anybody know what happen to him?

Hey Yakkers.   :smt001 

He used to use such phrases.  He talked of needing money to take care of his mom I think, and he kinda retired from the board - I think it was about 1.5 years ago right before GS6.

yeah,  he sold a lot of his gear & went on to other things. haven't seen Ernie in a while.

He is still active. He posted last year on one of my threads. Hunter is probably almost in middle school now. Good guy.

There are loads of stripers buddy, but it will be sturgeon time before I can kayak fish again. I went out in wzard's boat on Tuesday and we got a dozen or so in a couple hours, couple real nice ones too...
