Fishing Amston Lake August 14th

Friday, August 12th I was able to spend some time fishing Amston Lake. I had to quit early and do some real estate work. The fish weren't aggressive, but they were biting. I caught a 17" and 9 other smaller bass. I tried other worms, but the only bites I got were on the Senkos. With this weeks warmer weather the fishing seems to have let off. It has been a wierd weather season and the fish don't seem to be following their regular patterns or in the usual spots. Oh well, that's fishing for you.


This house is for sale at Amston Lake. Let me know if you'd like to look at it.

Real Estate by the Numbers


If you’re reading this Blog I don’t have to tell you how much information is passed over the internet. More people find their home through the internet than all other (newspapers, magazines, friends, signs, family, etc) means, combined. But still, a lot of people selling their houses demand that their Realtor advertise in the newspapers. United States newspaper circulation peaked in 1990, since then the population has increased by an estimated 54 million people. Newspapers have had their day, and will reach some of the market, put they are no longer the number one source. According to “Prudential – Real Estate Marketing 2009 + Beyond”, only 3% of buyers find their house through the newspaper. In 1995 only 2% used the internet to search for a home. By 2007 the number was up to 86%. Most potential buyers (75%) looked at the house on the internet before driving by or viewing the house.
