Back When You Could Fish…And Drink
First the nanny patrol disclaimer: In no way shape or form am I advocating or otherwise supporting the drinking of adult beverages on bassin’ boats…or any other vehicle, for that matter. But if you’re having one, I may be persuaded…. Lol. Anyhow, I’m sure you’re aware (I hope you are) how many things now standard [...]
Do You ‘Energy Drink’?

Rapala’s in the Beer Biz!
Lakemaid (Mermaid) Pics Below Who knew – did you? – that Rapala is in the beer biz, and has been since 2008. The company seems to be a partner in Lakemaid (maybe a play on “Lakemade”?) Beer. “Caress and Release,” “Full-Bodied Flavor” – that’s pretty funny! More on the beer from a Lakemaid press release:
