I like the tarantulas. They are one of the signs of Fall that I look forward to seeing. I would love to see those big centipedes at least once, but I hope I never get bitten by one.

10 years ago today, I was diagnosed with the cancer. One little hiccup this year in Sept, new sore popped up behind the graft on tongue. CT and biopsy was all clear, no cancer cells. Happy Halloween!

I would like an XL Please. I will Gladly donate to CAM this coming Summer. Someone will likely need to remind me though. 😳

Great colors on all of them.

Great trip, good to see Randy out there catching them! Was it cold? 😀

This is why I sold or gave away my gear. Nowadays I hire guides and let them bear the risk. However, I do try not to step on rod tips or throw lures in the trees.

I might add, rps caught 21 bass in a row!! 22 years of guiding and that tops the most consecutive fish catches on a guide trip, that number will be hard to beat!

Always a fun trip with you rps!! Here are some pics from today, see you next time Randy!

It is. Simple beans and cornbread yesterday. I told Pat potato soup sounds good after that meal. I went to the woodshop . When I came back in this was on the stove. Stay back that's for tomorrow 😆.

Oh my! that all looks so good !

Good loaded potato soup today. Pat did a first today adding cheddar cheese and jalapenos to her sourdough. Oh my it is goooooooood!

Perfect!

Whatever you are doing keep it up 😀!

Thanks for posting,very nice

Cool pics!

I waded at the dam C&R area today after the water went down and had a good afternoon. Caught lots of rainbows, a nice cuttie, a few brookies and one tiger, so I guess that would be considered a slam as the tiger is part brown. Best flies were eggs and scuds. I hooked this nice rainbow in some fast water and had to chase him about 50 yards downstream to find some calm water to get him in the net. Tomorrow is the last day to fish up there as it will be closed until Feb 1 for the brown trout spawn. Here's some pics...

My wife come in handed me a New IPHONE. Hollerd meal was ready get in there Fried Squirrel, Mashed Potatoes, Gravy and Biscuits. oneshot

It is. I met that friend about 10 pm on on Taney all the way back in 2012, and we've been fishing together ever since. That slowed down when he moved to SW CO but we got a nice float in.

This was going to be my first year. But nope. Gotta be in KC that weekend. One of these days I’m going to be there and meet everyone.

I'm gonna be greedy and ask for 2. (l) Xl, and (1) 2xl. I'll gladly pay. I'm in-between weights and not sure what will fit better long term.

Cool place and it’s the first place I ever caught a trout.

Fished 7 to 12 today with Phil Stone. Good guy, good guide. First we established the Rockcrawler bite was not happening. Next we fished a long gravel run out in Long Creek. 20 plus fish on a 7/16 pumpkin jig with a crawdad style trailer. A very slow, scrub the bottom retrieve was the ticket. Caught another two or three on a gravel flat, then brought it in. Nothing large, but a great outing. Thanks Phil.

Two more things to wash though!🤪

It sure is a pretty area to fish. I fished it a couple years back, but I wouldn't go back to just fish for trout. Funny story though, when I was researching where to stay and all of that, I called Beavers Bend Fly shop and asked for suggestions. The guy asked where I was from and when I was coming down. When I told him SW MO he seemed a little stunned. He literally tried to talk me out of going! He said, "why would you want to come here and fish when you have the White River system so much closer"? Lol I had a good time, and it is very beautiful down there. I caught a bunch, but nothing as big as the one you caught in the 2nd or third pic. Congrats, those are nicing lookd fish.
