Here are some more information for Hot Rod Rat:
Newaygo Michigan- This sleepy rural, mostly farming community lies in Western Michigan, just 30 minutes north of Grand Rapids.
Newaygo County has over 230 natural lakes and 350 miles of rivers and streams, 2 huge dams, Croton and Hardy. Hardy Dam is the largest earthen dam east of the Mississippi River. The Muskegon River continues to be the main attraction for summer cottage residents and fishermen, who find it nearly the best source for spring and winter steelhead and its fall salmon run anywhere!
The fall salmon run on the Muskegon River and nearby White River occurs every fall. This fall salmon run usually runs from the middle of September to the end of October or later. Water temperature determines run time and length.
You do not have to worry about missing the fall salmon run, because as the salmon run tails off, the fall/winter steelhead enter the rivers from October to early spring, usually the end of May.
During the fall salmon run, most baits will work such as, Husky Jerks, Hot-n-Tots, Rattle Traps, Thundersticks, Lil Cleo to name a few. You should also be prepared to fish with chunks of fresh roe or spawn sacs tied with a 3 way swivel with a large split shot about a foot below the swivel and a leader tied to the other eyelet about 18" behind this.
Not sure how to fish for these fall dandies? No need to fret here, Newaygo is home to more than a dozen local river guides. Many of these guides have been featured in nation fly fishing articles and as authors.
I would recommend these five top notch guides as your starting point.
1. Riverside Outfitters LLC/ http://www.riversideoutfittersllc.com or call 231-834-9155
2. Betts Guide Service/ http://www.bettsguideservice.com or call 231-652-3189

5. River Rat Dog/ http://www.riverratdog.com or call 517-651-2616
A typical 8 hour float trip on the Muskegon River includes the boat and guide, all rods and equipment and a shore lunch for around $325.00 (prices vary) Partial trips are also available for around $200.00. A State of Michigan fishing license and trout stamp (all species) is required, but not included in any package. You can obtain a license from Parsley's Sport and Fly Shop (231-652-6986) located on the banks of the Muskegon River in downtown Newaygo.
We now know a little bit about Newaygo County, the Muskegon River and its fall salmon run, how to fish em or at least who to call to help you fish em, but you will also need a place to stay. Yea, you will be tired after a day on the river battling 15-30 pound salmon.
There was a reason behind this article, you see, I own and manage several waterfront cottages rentals in Newaygo, which caters to fishermen, hunters, ice fishing, and snowmobiles and for family vacations.
We are open year round and our modern fishing cabins/cottages are on Hess Lake, an all-sports lake, and the Muskegon River.
On Hess Lake, you can enjoy 1 and 2 bedroom cottages that sleep up to 6 people each, with modern kitchens and appliances, all kitchen utensils, linens and bedding. All cottages also feature fire pits, private patios/ decks, gas grills, docks for your water toys, and one cottage even has a hot tub.
We also have a fantastic Muskegon River front cottage on over 3 acres with 350 feet of water frontage. Low cost cottages are our approach to staying open year round. You can rent these spacious cottages from just $75.00-150.00 per day or $300.00-$450 per week from September to the end of May.
Now that you have all the information you need to plan your Muskegon River-Fall Salmon Run fishing trip to all seasons Newaygo Michigan, don't hesitate, and make your reservation today.

The Jobs Of Celebrities Before They Were Famous
Anyone who is becoming disillusioned with their online job search and has found themselves looking enviously onto the effortless lives of celebrities can take comfort in the fact that they haven't always had it this easy. Even the most glamorous celebs have crumpled discarded CVs that they'd rather we never see. Fortunately, the internet has made it rather easy to research celebrities' embarrassing occupations before they were famous...
Without further ado, here's a list of 10 celebrities' jobs from before they were famous:
Sir Bob Geldof - Pea Canner
The outspoken former frontman of the Boomtown Rats and face of the 'Make Poverty History' movement took on all kinds of dead-end jobs before finding his calling in music. He worked as a road navvy, a hot dog vendor, a slaughterman and finally an exciting career in pea canning before getting a job as a music journalist in Canada.
Sylvester Stallone - Porn Star
Stallone's tough reputation may have begun in one of his first pre-celebrity jobs - a lion cage cleaner! Years later, after dropping out of Miami University, Stallone pursued his acting dreams, but the 'Rocky' star had a long way to go before he was famous and his place in Hollywood history - one of his first films was called 'Party at Kitty and Stud's', which is exactly as high brow as it sounds. This silver screen 'classic' was a hardcore pornographic film, which has since been repackaged on the back of Stallone's success as a softcore release entitled 'Italian Stallion' - a reference to Rocky Balboa's nickname.
Rod Stewart - The Grave Digger
After trying out for a football career with Scottish giants Celtic and London minnows Brentford, a young Rod Stewart decided the glamorous career of a footballer wasn't for him and opted for the not-so-glamorous career as a grave digger. He wasn't there for too long though, before pursuing a career in music. The Maggie May songwriter took up street singing, travelling around Europe... indeed he was actually deported from Spain for vagrancy for his art!
Madonna - Dunkin' Donuts Worker
Madonna is now one of the best selling female music artists of all time, but somehow this will have seemed an unlikely scenario for her 20 year old self upon arriving in New York with just $35 to her name. Over the course of these tough months before she became famous, the 'Like a Prayer' singer made ends meet by taking on a range of low paying jobs including a stint serving customers at 'Dunkin' Donuts'. An exhibitionist even in those days, she also took on some nude modelling work to supplement the limited fast-food income before finding her celebrity job calling...
Michael Dell - Dishwasher
At the age of 12 the founder of Dell computers, Michael Dell was washing dishes in a Chinese restaurant for $2.30 an hour. With Dell Inc. now worth over $16 billion, I would hope that the CEO is allowing himself a better salary than he earned at the restaurant.
Helen Mirren - Amusement Park Promoter
Long before she was famous and had won her Oscar, SAG Awards, BAFTAs, Golden Globes and Emmy Awards, Dame Helen Mirren had the slightly less glamorous role of attracting punters to use the rides at an amusement park in Southend on Sea. It's unclear whether she won as many accolades in this period of her life...
Paul Daniels - Accountant
The magician and entertainer Paul Daniels was in the army, serving in Hong Kong during his national service. On his return he began training as an accountant in the civil service before leaving to run a small mobile grocery business owned by his parents. While performing magic in the evenings, the door to show business was eventually opened to him.
Jack Nicholson - Mailroom Worker
The veteran actor and star of classics like A Few Good Men, The Shining and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest was reportedly discovered working in MGM's mailroom. Before that, the three times Oscar winner had worked in a toy store and as a lifeguard.
Jerry Seinfeld - Lightbulb Retailer
Before he became famous as a comedian and sitcom star, Jerry sold lightbulbs over the phone. After no doubt being on the end of several aggressive customers, Jerry made fun of his former career on his hit sitcom by telling a cold-caller that it was a bad time and asking if he could call them back later when they're at home trying to relax.
Brad Pitt - Man in a Chicken Suit
Now regarded as one of the most desirable men on the planet, you'd be hard pushed to see that in Brad Pitt when he handed out flyers outside El Pollo Loco Restaurant in Los Angeles dressed in a chicken suit! Even the role of refrigerator delivery man, although a step up, is a far cry from his current status! As the most embarrassing celebrity job in the list, we can't imagine Brad looks back fondly on his occupations before he was famous!
So, aside from a slight feeling of smugness, what have we gained from seeing what these celebrities' occupations before they were famous? Not much, but it's clear that celebrities come from all walks of life and you never know when you might be spotted. Hopefully that'll give you the impetus to return to your online job search with renewed vigour, afterall sir Bob Geldof wasn't stuck canning peas forever!

Model A Rat Rod?
I have a model A body and frame. I want to built a cheap hot rod/rat rod. What would be the cheapest way to go. My older brother is going to help me. He has build old school hot rods he learned from my grandpa. Not many of them old school guys around these days. He knew some of the old tricks of the trade. But the problem is my brother is always blowing budgets cause he doesn't ever has one. But I do. So I want to make a good rod with a limited budget. I am 19 and my brother is 30. So any advice would be greatly appreciated. My only objective is to get something that runs and won't break down. I plan to paint it Flat black. I wound chop the top but will remove hood and fenders. So advice is greatly appreciated.
If your a mod is the improved model (late 34) or as known in austalia as a "B" Model the side valve V8 from 1936 on bolts straight in . No mods required. Removing front and rear cross members and reinstalling them upside down lowers the car aprox 3 inchs. By spliting front axle,and drilling ,bushing, and removing ball from A frame, spreding them and fitting ends to them,you can mount them to the out side of the frame. You then have inderpendant front springing and still retain standard transverce spring.Hope this is some help.
