I have recived a copy of "TIME ON THE WATER" from the author Bill Gardner,,This book is considered the "tresure island" of muskie fishing literature, The difference is you can go into a book store and buy a copy of tresure island this you cant it's out of print. The book comes from Bill Gardners own personel collection and it is his last personeel one only his family members have one,,The book is literaly brand new and is "SIGNED" by the autor,,,This is considered to be one of the most coveted and colectable items in all of musky fishing,,,and besides that its just a great book to read too,,We have had unseasonably cold fall weather this year and our seasons are getting cut shot and that means a long off season,,heres some first class reading to pass the time

Heres how it goes....Im keeping the internet bidding open untill dec 9th,,,the high bidder will be contacted by me probably by phone,,,but then it will go to the live auction at Smokeys benefit on dec 10th,,,I will get the internets high bid they will go or have them on my cell phone when the live auction starts to see how high they wanna go,,,,Im very confident that the winning bidder will come from the internet

all proceeds from this are going to Smokey Swenson so bid high,often and get your ego involved dont let the other guy beat you

Somebody is going to end up with a real piece of tresure

Thanks

Happy,
could you post a link here, I went to MI and could not find the auction. I am not a member so was not allowed in some areas.
Thanks
