Gogglers it's what for supper.

Quick look, but I will have to feel it, the split handle thing is a little much for me without laying hands on it first. Will give it a twitch or ten next time I make it to spfld.
-
I will check it out. Thank you.

Never seen one of them trees but I still dislike gluten free more.
-
Can you imagine how much of a whiner they would be if they also had a KU Jayhawk on the jersey.

You always hear about damage to fiberglass boats on Truman, and it does get its share from folks who simply hammer down and don't realize what underneath, but it eats transducers like a wold would eat baby ducks. Wonderful lake, great fishing, but you are going to slide up on trees, hook your trolling motor on trees etc. That's just fishing truman.

Something I have never done before, went an entire summer (at least since late march) and never made even a single cast. However I have discovered that not fishing doesn't stop one from buying fishing gear. I gave up smoking and chewing too but those but they might have been cheaper habits than buying gear.

I have a Ned question to ask also. I have a little $ burning a hole in my pocket and wanting a new rod, one that while maybe not purpose built to fish a Ned but would work well for it. Now for the conditions, $150 or under, not so long that I don't want to take it to the littler rivers but want it useful for other types of fishing as well. Currently own 3 St. Croix so thinking 6' 6" Medium light St Croix for like $125. Opinions ?

Who say Ned only catches small fish?

Well its either a funny looking catfish or the biggest dang bluegill I ever saw. Gotta love the big smile though. -
The New location for Lews and Sportmans Outlet
MOPanfisher replied to jmes's topic in Table Rock Lake
So is the new location their only one, or do they still have the original one also. -
I have never done well on the large public areas after opening day. The birds get scattered, and not nearly asany people to keep them moving around. Always do better on ponds or small areas after the craziness of opening day.
-
Talbot always has doves, sometimes in the sunflowers sometimes in the burned or cut wheat. Follow the sounds of shooting and you will find the concentration.
-
I would guess that none of the fields got planted this year with the high water, so food sources might be is short supply. I used to live on the bluff that looks out over the Barker Hole, don't ever remember seeing much in the way of doves though. I usually go to Talbot (usually lots of doves and plenty of hunters). Also have done OK at Sloan area closer to Lockwood.
-
Never had a bird dog of any kind, but have watched somegood ones work. One that will happily go after doves is generally a good one. This year was the first opening day in many years that I haven't been, but that was out of my control, and one of my buddies is in a wheelchair with a busted up knee so it wouldn't have been quite the same anyway.
-
Wrench, make sure she posts it on OA as well.
-
I never have dove breasts last past opening day. We usually go as a group, then afterwards drive to a known crawdad spot and clean doves, bait the traps with dove remains, grill the do e breasts just like yours. Run the traps occasionally through the afternoon, and by dark we toss a big batch of dad's in with shrimo, corn on the cob, sausage chunks, taters heck anything available even frog legs. Then eat till we can't bear the shame of our own actions any longer.

Shane did take some O2 readings, levels good down to about 13 feet, from there to bottom 1ppmor less. The upper few feet will usually have oxygen due to wind and wave action, also its the warmest.
-
I have removed my response as Sisaluki did a much better job of explaining some cause /effects than I did.
-
Think of it this way, if an area of the lake due to circumstances (high algal bloom and subsequent die off) has used up all the available oxygen, fish do not have reasoning power to stop and think about what is happening and what should I do. Just like if you were walking around outside, and all the oxygen was removed from the air you are breathing, you don't know what has happened, or how far it extends, you only know you can't breathe, how long could you go without breathing. Its not an uncommon thing to happen, has happened before and will happen again.
-
That sucks Vonreed. Some folks just can't leave things alone. You feel like you are doing the right thing by making it noticeable so someone won't accidentally lose a lure on it and they cut it.

Major rescue effort today in KC
MOPanfisher replied to GloryDaze's topic in General Angling Discussion
Wonder how high the tide runs in eastern kansas. -
Actually the State Record Tiger Muskie came from Stockton Lake in 86. The State Record Muskie came from LOZ in 1981. Certainly sounds like he could have caught one below bagnell since it open from there to the big river. Northern Pike Distribution in Missouri: Native to northern and central Missouri, and the lower Osage River. Currently, our largest natural populations are in borrow pits and drainage ditches on the Mississippi River floodplain, in Clark and Marion counties. Reports from the Missouri and upper Mississippi rivers have been increasing.

Ever Hooked a Grass Carp on a Lure?
MOPanfisher replied to Seth's topic in General Angling Discussion
Yep, many years ago I caught one on a jointed rapala I was twitching on top. At that time Grass Carp were relataively scarce except in ponds, this was a 7 acre lake we had stocked. It would have close to 50#, the guy who held it up was a Veteranarian and guessed it at every bit of 50 pounds. Didn't put up as good a fight as a regular carp, at least I didn't think so. We put it back into the lake. -
Rumors say that the crappie fishing at Truman is getting good.

Excellent!
