A month passes so fast... each time I check the blogs another month has passed since my last entry.

I try to keep everyone up to date on site plans... it's hard doing everything I want to do without full control of the site. The trouble is knowledge. I don't have the know how to do the things I want to do. Jim, my partner and computer geek, is the brains behind the scene and he's busy building internet sites and making commercials to help. He does what he can, when he can, and we are grateful!

OzarkHunters.Com is going to happen very soon.

I'm publishing a full colored newsletter that will be ready for the FFF Conclave. It will be like last years but a little bigger in size. It will announce the new forum addition.

We are working on logos for both sites and hopefully will create hats, shirts and stickers for each.

More to come....

Alaska was a hit for me... may be more than a hit. I fell in love with the area, so much so I want to spend more time up there. The best way is to buy some land, build a couple of cabins and offer to take people fishing. Well, my friend Jim Johnson is already doing that so I think I'll help him. More definate plans to come soon... along with booking information. On problem now is that he only has room for 6 people at a time and he's already filled up next season. My cabins will allow more people to go.

As I mentioned, another year has past in my life and of course I don't feel any different. Approaching 50 is alittle unnerving but I'm trying to think of it as a wake up call. Seeing my kids grow up so fast is another reminder of how short life is.

Fishing-wise... I wish I could say fishing on Taneycomo was great- I can't. This has been the worse trout fishing year since I've been here- this summer anyhow. Low water flow is the only one-thing I can point to for it, plus the fact MDC dropped their stocking numbers by 10% this year. 10% isn't that much though- not enough to make this big a difference in 'catching'. The brown spawning run will help but only up by the dam. Just hoping for RAIN this fall and winter.
