Columbus, OH

You might think there’s an ordinance that requires people who live on lakes to own pontoon boats. Virtually every dock has one. For the longest time, I considered pontoon boats as awkward contraptions for entertaining kids, grandparents and friends who came up from the city. They were slow and lacked the pizazz of a sleek fishing boat.

If you’ve got the cash, you can purchase the boat used in one of the biggest fishing scandals in recent memory. And it’s a pretty sweet rig. In 2022, two Ohio anglers came under fire for stuffing walleye with lead weights at a Lake Erie walleye fishing tournament. Jacob Runyan and Chase Cominsky faced multiple felony charges and were ultimately each sentenced to ten days in jail. They were also forced to forfeit the boat they used to commit their crimes to authorities. Now, that boat could be yours.

If you'll indulge me this personal recollection for a moment, growing up, one of my best friends used to spend his entire summers at his family's campsite on Lake Winnipesaukee in New Hampshire. When we got old enough, his parents used to give him use of the place and their power boat for a few weekends. And regardless of who among our common circle of friends were there at any given time, those days on the lake are among the happiest memories of my misspent youth. (I'm still sorry about the mess we left that one time. When we were young and irresponsible, we were young and irresponsible.)

A Minnesota man set the state’s fishing record for Black Crappie back in April with a literal saucer of a fish, a 16.25″ Black Crappie, and the state’s Fish & Wildlife Department announced that he just broke his own fishing record with an even bigger fish a month later.

The atmosphere aboard the Schock 40 hurtling upwind in the dark through the Johnstone Strait was trepidatious, as the gentle hum of a motor carried forth on the lips of the churning sea, a sound barely audible above the howling, 30-knot wind. Lurching out of the tumultuous night was a vessel lacking navigation lights, thoroughly perplexing Team Angry Beaver as they approached—you guessed it—Beaver Point.

Is there such a thing as a cheap fishing boat? That’s a very good question, and the answer is- with qualifications- Yes, there are cheap fishing boats. However, there will be very few cheap fishing boats that are also new fishing boats. Let’s be honest- that shine and glitter of a new fishing boat is not cheap, and all the newest gadgets and add-ons to a new fishing boat come with a high price. It’s just not likely for an angler to find a brand new fishing boat of any kind that could be considered cheap. New boats are expensive.

Caitlin Tan wanted to breed her childhood horse, JP, because she’s been “amazing” — the type of animal any equestrian would be lucky to have once in a lifetime. Having access to coveted bloodlines increased the allure. Via the Miller Ranch, she could pair her 18-year-old mare with a stud descendent of Playboy’s Buck Fever.

Just look at that beautiful pup! Lima is an adorable 5-month-old Husky who is smart, friendly, and a total sweetheart. It’s hard to believe this sweet girl was brought to FAAS after being abandoned in a grocery store parking lot, tied to a pole with an electrical cord used as a leash. She was just a few months old.

How can Astrology tell you about your worst friends? Astrology is the concept of using the placement of the planets and their related astrological signs, or the Signs of the Zodiac, to determine the course of a life. These placements based on your birth date, time, and location can give you a wealth of information about your personality traits and character and predict events throughout your life based on your sign and current placements. Of course, this is a quick overview, and doing actual natal charts and horoscopes is much more complicated. But now you have a basic idea of what astrology is.
