Sore Thumbs

I decided to stay home. Too hot for me. I would have to get up at 3am to get there around 5-5:30. Just didn't have it in me.

How much you want to spend? What size do you prefer?

Thinking about going early tomorrow. Thoughts or reports?

Check Craigslist I saw a few on there last night. Can't remember where exactly.

Me too. Favorite time of year for both?

Fall is my favorite time to play golf.

It's not exactly cool on the golf course Champ. At least when you fish it's a possibility to jump in the lake. I guess you could jump in the creek at BV. It's probably refreshing.

It's a GIANT! It's a TOAD! It's a SWAMP DONKEY! It's a FENCE PANDA!...... Well it felt a lot bigger than that when I was reeling it in.

For free? Absolutely! Ha.

I finally got it changed out! It was a booger getting those dang hubs off. Took almost 3 hours but we got it done. The only issue I had is metal brake line is a little too long to go into the fitting that came with new axle. Gotta go to brake shop and get it shortened and bled the brakes. Another important thing I found out is UFP made my axle. I ordered it through EZ LOADER first. After doing some research I found out that UFP might replace my axle for free. My trailer is an 07 so I didn't think I would get it covered but I called anyway. The lady at UFP told me she would cover the axle but since I ordered it through EZ LOADER I would have to call them and see if they would refund me the money back. Looks like I'm going to get axle for free minus shipping. It was a $330 axle so this is great news. I just wanted to let you folks know if you ever have problems with axles to find out manufacturer and give them a call. It could save you a pile of dough. I found it to be refreshing that there are still companies that stand behind their products.

Champ lives in Bella Vista also. He would be a great person to talk to. I live in Bentonville. One thing I can tell you is traffic in BV is a nightmare from 7-8:30 if you are headed south. Then reverse it in the evening between 5-6pm headed north. It's a nice area with lots to do. Love to have you in Arkansas. Good luck

Hope you get to go. It's a good time. Heck of a lot closer drive.

Ham. I think if Miles was a great developer of quarterbacks LSU would be in the running for National Champs every year. In my opinion that is the only difference between you guys and Bama. There is a reason he is on the hot seat. The only thing I have against LSU is their fans at football games. I have heard horror stories from people who have attended. Drinks and food being thrown at them and people trying to start fights. I know this goes on in every stadium in the country but I've heard it is crazy down their. Especially a night game.

These officers are understaffed and need whatever help they can get. It's gonna be harder and harder to find people willing to work in this crazy environment. Cities are pulling funding and demanding more of their underpaid force. You wanna see a bad situation? Go look at murder rates in Chicago the last 5 years. They refuse to put enough officers in bad areas and people are killing each other like crazy. Kudos to those brave folks who go out and brave that stuff.

Big Royals fan here too. Been a rough year this year. Too many injuries and people not playing to their potential. I'm hoping Yost begins to realize the Royals are better off with Eibner in the lineup than Dyson.

Lsu has tremendous talent. My issue with them is that I think they win in spite of Les Miles in stead of because Les Miles. Though I like him he has grossly underachieved in my opinion. Even though Bielema has won fewer games I honestly believe he is doing the best he can with what he has. They had a stat the other day on sports radio about player retention. Bielema is one of the best at player retention in the country. He also makes more NFL players out of 2-3 star recruits than anyone. As much as I loved winning when Bobby P. was here. I think coach B is doing a phenomenal job. He is honest with his players, they seem to stay out of trouble and are seeing increases in Gpa. Maybe one day the stars will line up and we can have that one good season that lifts Arkansas to national prominence.

Don't get Champ started on this subject. He will blow a gasket. Ha

Saw a good point on Facebook the other day. It was an anti police rally in Dallas. When the shots starting ringing out all those protesters ran to hide behind the police. Ha. Crazy times we live in folks. Thank you to all men and women in service.

I need to get with Dave and order some. I got my younger brother Hooked on the Ned rig. We could order a big batch together.

I can't get into that darn spybait. I know it has its place I just can't find it. Ha

New Ned mold also

Got email from 40/29 about a young 21 year old student drowning yesterday. Awful news. He and another young man dove down to untangle anchor lines. Only one resurfaced. Found him in 40 ft of water four hours later. Thoughts and prayers to anyone who knew this young man.

If you work that spoon like a jerk bait with short pauses it looks fantastic going through the water.

Fluke,spoon,grub,swim bait,drop shot,hair jig,blade bait,little George or swim jig should cover it.
