Hi Russ:

Well, as far as I'm concerned, your making the right choice not selling the equipment. If your back doesn't get better, then OK, go and sell but I'm betting you'll be sucking dirt back at DC sooner than you think. Maybe a smaller lighter dredge is in your future, but wait and give yourself some time to heal and re-strengthen those back muscles.
Have a great time on vacation and enjoy the scenery.

haha, who knows, what the Shadow knows!! yep Dick i hated the thought of selling it in the first place, but we will see what time brings!

[russau]

well as it turns out, this trip just got cancelled (wife)due to the heat here in St.Louis. but itll happen this September when it cools down and the Colorado fires are out!

[gremlin]

you should check the heat at the place your going. mite be way better weather there.

heck last year the water was so low the fish were looking for water. this year the water has be way to high to go out much. darn the luck.
