Hey Buzz, How are those pitching stats looking now?


Windy City Walleye Hunter

Hey Buzz,

Just thought I would get your comments and thoughts on the pitching performances of the last two games by Buehrle and "Judy" Garland. I know that they could not carry the athletic supporter of Mr. YO-Han but I thought I would just ask like Toby Keith sang, "How do you like me now?". Let's see if I have some of the stats correct: Two complete games, 18 innings pitched, an average of 1 hit every other inning given up, an average of 1.5 runs per game. Did I leave anything out, maybe they should have had 20 strikeouts each like Yo-Han would have...IF HE WAS IN THE PLAYOFFS!

Don't go getting crazy on me, Buzzy, I'm just funnin you a little and I fully expect a smart aleck answer back. So think hard and fire away...How do you like me now! Sing it Toby!!!

YOU CAN PUT IT ON THE BOARD...YES!

I didn't want to rub it in by throwing in Contreras's stats but...NOW THAT YOU MENTION IT, just kidding. I know that you are allowing me my crowing time and I appreciate it. What do you think, will I see my boys play again in the Windy or will they wrap it up in La La Land?

World Series Tix go on sale Tuesday at high noon!

Buzz,

Can you believe that Garland gave up one walk and that was to the first batter? Amazing stuff for a rusty pitcher on 13 days rest. Ozzie looks like the Wizzard of Ozz, he left him in to pitch the 9th but he was on the top step of the dugout with Big Bad Bobby waiting in the wings with his 100 mph nasty cheese waiting. Tommorrow will be tough, that pitcher shut us down earlier in the year, but I think Freddie will be "Cocked, Locked and ready to Rock" as Deadly Teddly, Mr. Nugent says.

I just got from fishing this morning on Lake Minnetonka and it was a great day scenery wise, but the fishing was week! I think the Sox look like a team destined for the WS, but they still have to play the games.

Not boys being boys!!! EMBARRASMENT!! Totally undisciplined and unaccepatable!! I hate to say it but I am bordering on giving up on the Vikes for good, I have two young kids and seeing these overpaid over testosterone filled home boys (white boys included) act like (Contact US Regarding This Word) who are above society's rules... no thanks, not interested in supporting that shi$! I actually feel bad for our new owner Ziggy Wilf (who I am scheduled to mee at halftime of next saturdays Vikes/pack tilt). It's just not fun and frankly I'm embarrased by these "ADULTS" behavior.

P.S. Good game by the Sox tonight, you've gotta taste blood now!!

Buzz,

I'm glad you said that, I was being kind and didn't want to rile the Vikings fans but they should be riled. I have four grand kids all under 5 and I don't know how I would explain that to them if they were a few years older. My two grand daughters only know one thing, they say, "Go White Sox and Cubs Stink!" I taught them the last part and it is a hoot to hear them at parties with Cub fans.

Anyway, glad to know that you and I are on the same "moral page", but I kinda thought so before in our discussions.

Keep fishin that Lake Minnetonka and maybe we can keep the Vikings on the football field. Agreed? Windy

Wow,

I can't believe that there is a football team that can make my Bears look so good. No guts, no discipline, no scoring. I guess that the Vikings really cleaned up their image by getting rid of Randy Moss, huh? I think the Viking fans will be jumping off their ship faster than passangers on the Titanic and I can't blame them if they do. Thanks for getting our hopes up this week, now all the Bears faithful will think we actually have a chance this year, but in the Central, we just might!

BEAR DOWN, CHICAGO BEARS....

      Quick update: Lucky 7 now has rainbows, fatheads, crappie and light pike in stock. If I remember correctly, scoop of rainbows was $8.99.  Stopped at L&M in Virginia. Rainbows $6.99, fatheads and crappie minnows (scoop) $3.99. I was billed $6.99 dozen for rainbows, but was given a healthy scoop!

      I have had the same old Strikemaster augers for years, take care of them and they will last a long time.   I think E-augers are nice for around home lakes or at the cabin. The thing that was a eye opener to me was being in D-Rock in New Brighton getting new blades and there were two guys that just got back from a week in Canada on a big ice fishing trip and both very pissed off at their e-augers dying! They were both buying new gas augers.

      On the south end...   Things are shaping up nicely for the MN Fishing Opener which takes place Saturday, May 11th.  Recent rain has brought up the water levels, which were low.  The walleyes and saugers are in very good shape across the south shore.  Expectations are high. The goto presentation this weekend will be a jig and frozen emerald shiner or other kind of minnow.  Emerald shiners are a staple in LOW and walleyes love them.     Hook the shiner through the mouth and out the gill.  Push the minnow all the way up to the jig head and hook the minnow as far back as possible.  This will give you a better hooking percentage.     Jig sizes and colors?  This is stained water so you can get away with a big heavier jig, which is nice for those who don't fish a lot.  It enables them to have more control and feel the bottom.  A quarter ounce jig is a good size for starters.     In stained water, gold, glow white, glow red, pink, orange and chartreuse, or a combo of those colors, are great places to start.   The limit of walleyes and saugers is a combined limit of six fish, up to four of the six can be walleyes.  All walleyes between 19.5 - 28.0 inches must be released.  One fish over 28.0 inches can be kept.  The possession limit in MN is one daily limit of fish. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, there will be some good pike caught this weekend.  The pike season on LOW is open year round. The limit is 3 pike per day with one fish allowed more than 40 inches. All fish 30 - 40 inches must be released. On the Rainy River...  Sturgeon fishing on the Rainy River has been excellent.  The catch and release season is May 8 - 15.  The keep season starts up again July 1st. FYI, there will be some nice walleyes in the Rainy River for the fishing opener.  Lots of sturgeon anglers are reporting big walleyes being caught on sturgeon rigs! Up at the NW Angle...  Angle resorts are ready to roll for the opener.  As many of you know, this is the area of LOW where the islands begin.  Lots of structure.     Go to spots for walleyes, neck down areas, shoreline breaks, points and bays which will have warmer water.  In true NW Angle form, be ready for a mixed bag of fish.  In addition to walleyes and saugers, pike, jumbo perch, crappies, and even a few smallies and muskies will be caught.   Again, the goto presentation will be a jig and minnow. Slow trolling a crankbait will also produce fish if need be.

      Totally disagree Gim. I have a gas Jiffy legend auger. Never issues. Take a little time to care for it before putting it away and good to go. Sincei started using non oxygen gas, startron and seafood in never have issues with my 2 strokes.   seafood???   I'd try seafoam!!!   🤣

      Wow, 600 bucks for a battery powered lawn mower?  Guess I didn't realize they costed that much.   I assume most people now are using battery augers in the winter.  I remember when they first came out everyone thought they were a joke.  Things sure have changed on that front.  I hardly see anyone using a gas auger anymore.   The selling point, at least for me, would be to avoid having to do any engine maintenance.  Small 2 stroke motors are a pain in the rear to maintain, and unreliable at best.
