I'll be staying at my Bluff Cabin. I'll have a boat and a couple of empty seats. I'll fish Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Woo Hoo! I'm looking forward to it!

Super cool! A lot jealous.

I'm think the weekend of 12/8,12/9, 12/10 would be Great with me. I'll look for the official Jigfest Thread

Really crappy bite. I caught 10 in 3 1/2 hours. stein got this 19 inch Brown though

It's been a jacked up year for my fishing. I know lots and lots of people hand real world problems and I have a few of my own, but my fishing obsession has not been getting enough of a workout. Well...we closed on our Mountain Home house. We took a beating on it, but I no longer have two house notes and two big yards to keep up. I also no longer have my old truck. It had been in rapid decline for a few months and I decided to replace it. I "took advantage" of year end savings and got an ok trade in i the old Avalanche. I'm in the little brother truck of Little Red Fisherman. He got it with the 6.2. I got it with the 5.3. Same model/same color. I hope to figure all the gadgets out before it's time to replace it. So, from here until the end of the year, I intend to fish often even if some of my trips are short. Still got the multispecies thing going on, but trying to get to 2500 fish for the year. Fair Warning Fish, I'm coming for you. To that end, Stein called. He's making a flying trip down to check on his place and we are going to try to sore mouth some trout here in a little bit.

Success breeds success. Learn what works for you and what doesn't. If you had a Good time, it doesn't matter at all what other people think. you caught more fish than I did this weekend.

If the rails went on, they can come off.

You should have hired a diver

Man, Next year, I would be all about that 25 HP jet

I would assume good catfishing in the lower river and salty fish too. I'd love to find out.

Used to be Good Spotted Bass fishing in the Bogue Chitto. What about the Pearl River?

Well, wrong tent, wrong bag, and inaccurate forecast = me shivering uncontrollably = minimal sleep.

As far as I know, they are a Bass Pro Shops item ONLY. I have two in active rotation and two new ones in a rack. They will cease production at some point. I've straight up lost one while yakking and had a cousin break another one being a knucklehead. It happens.

Truer words are seldom spoken. I was too cold to sleep on one of those low 20's nights. Absolutely, miserable.

I saved $600 a month for 3 years and had a decent down payment and then paid $600 a month for three years. I did pay it off a few months early, but still.

There might NOT be many, but there are some.

I would have felt a great disturbance in the Force if he had quit making them. so far so good

I did not know that either. I've been told there were Old Shawnee boats that were 16 foot 32 inch bottoms. Stay seated and trust your partner.

Why do you want a 16 footer instead of a 20 foot boat.

I enjoyed Ron's stuff. Impossible to please everyone

Roadrunners are actually a very good bait for a lot of gamefish.

Another positive sight.

It's a nice bunch of baits. I just have so much stuff already. I hope some one will buy them. I didn't think $60 was too much.

Mojo Rig said they were working on the red ear stocking, but it might have been a one time deal with some Available fry or some such. it seems like there was some hitch in the giddy up. I might text him today and ask about it. The Yellow Perch are in Bull Shoals because of a "Bucket Biologist". I don't support or encourage that behavior. I hope they don't end up in the other lakes, but I do wish I caught them more on Bull Shoals.
