I have no idea how to answer your question. I lived 17 years on Table Rock. I thought I should say hello and tell you I admire the way that you asked your question. BS is an excellent lake for walleye and bass. Keep the gold fish and let the green fish go. Good luck.

Wife and I are coming to Bull Shoals in April. Looking for guide willing to bass fish or walleye no so much crappie. Willing to fish however the guide wants to.Both of us can throw bait casters or spinning reels. We would also like to keep a few fish not looking to fill an ice chest with fish. Keep 2or 3 for a fish fry. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

I was calling this a sculpin streamer. Forever now the "Grinch bug" I asked our friend why? He said my grandkids would call it a Grinch because of the color. Alrighty then. I had an idea for this swap but went through a couple prototypes until I decided this was the one. B10S #8, inverting tungsten bead, thread, small wire for the ribbing and pine squirrel strips and peeled the face and substandard strips for the dubbing used. The head/pectoral fin area and body behind is olive chartreuse UV dyed. I did use a black sharpie to dull that down some but still shows under the UV cure light. These little guys ride hook up. The sink test went well on the prototype. I will post that separate so maybe it won't downgrade so much. A couple pictures will be double showing the UV color. You can strip, jig, bounce on the bottom or dead drift. They will catch more than trout I guarantee. Right at an inch and a half inches long.

@Lancer09, Pat and I are ready to mail like @Ham. Hope you are stopping at nine. I am ready for you to stop at nine as I am tired of tying these. My friend was over yesterday. I have a generic name for them, he called them a grinch bug 🤪. So, for now on these are grinch bugs. I will post a pic or several. HA!

Ok, I had a rainout day so I got my 9 flys for the swap ready to go. I’m just waiting on an address to mail them in. I cleared room in my mailbox in case that’s how you who prefer to distribute your address its a Size 18 barbless Ruby Midge. Tied on TMC 100 BL and Tungsten 3/32 bead

No but listen to plenty of his music. Truth here lately I haven't found any I like. Was into Kid Rock but my wife had plenty to say. oneshot

Have you been to Alice's restaurant?

75$ was expensive back then but have you priced tickets that are not in the nosebleed section lately?

Couldn't believe my wife. We went to see Ted Nugent. She told him what she thought about his music. He was cool. Well my music isn't for everyone. My kids wanted to go see Michael Jackson it cost $75 and I told them no. Mentioned Arlo Guthrie the other day. Who is that? LOL oneshot

I saw Heartsfield at the Wildey in Edwardsville with, I recall, one original member. Same with Gypsy and Rennaissance. I am reluctant to pay to see re-enactment bands. But you know it is just about the music and each of these bands are in a class of their own. The same applies to The Daredevil's.

I am in!!! C4F

even though the fishing wasn't great, that will for sure go down as one of my most memorable fishing trips.

I never actually got to fish with Richard, but often in the general area. But did have the privilege of being in the same fish camp and sharing meals talking fishing a few days, along with Ham and Cody. Very pleasant and knowledgeable guy.

My buddy agrees with you.

Ah say , ah say, now thats a chicken boy.

I have a bunch of stamps from my childhood, doubt if they are worth much more than face value. Much like my football cards.

Yeah, it's a sad fact that outboard motors just don't last very long in saltwater. And that's why they don't design their fuel & electrical systems any better. 90% of their sales are coastal...and always have been. Johnson/Evinrude was the only company that designed freshwater specific outboards that would stand the test of time.

When Richard and I were down there fishing in Texas. Along the intercoastal waterway and San Bernard river every house along that area had outboards in their yards lined up. like junk on fences. I assume each were two years old now.

As long as you can trade for new ones every couple years they're all fine..... including the Mercs.
