While reservations are not required, every week has been nearly 100% full. So if you want to be sure you have a site then make a reservation. You certainly can beach your boat, people do it all the time, but they get beat up by wakes etc. Depends on what kind of boat and how particular you are about it. Personally I would launch and retrieve it and park it at site.

The video was fairly interesting. Most invasive species at some point in their cycle, whether it has to do with numbers or where they are living provide some benefit, unfortunately they often discover that they can live even better in better habitat and expand both range and numbers. Everything is about balance.

Heck MoCarp I was beginning to thing you had been eaten by a mutated carp/piranha or something.

Truth, I have seen video of it on Phills site, that son of a gun can move quick too.😲

Couple t bones headed for med rare, cared local sweet corn, inside are some fresh mares and cukes and onions. I love summer. Well except for the heat.

Put BLM on it, nobody will say a thing about anything else on it after that.

Too bad they weren't suckers!

Truman is also very haRd on transducers, backing up and hello stump, goodbye transducer. I don't have the nerve let alone the insurance to run fast on the arts of truman I fish. Even the channels sometimes get floaters in them, and if you stay too late it gets really really dark.

People who fly through have insurance!

Besides the crappie there are plenty of white bass and hybrids as well. Just abut anything from a bluegill to a big ole flathead is liable to grab your bait. If in doubt use caution wherever you are, stuns and trees are plentiful in lots of places.

Boy it hurts to agree with FW (😆), but the law that says you are liable for wakes and rhe reality of seeing a prosecution are world's apart. I remember lots of squished fingers, boats put in stalls wrong and swamping when waves broke over the stern etc. long before there were wake boats..

That's a cute little pile.

Treated Lumber is scarce everywhere. The little short torx bits that come with the boxes of screws usually get tossed into a bucket at my house, I buy the recessed bits for impact drivers, I get insanely mad for some reason when one of the little short bits comes out of the holder then drops into someplace I cannot get to without climbing down or under something. It's just one of those things that sets me off, sort of lie getting the screws mixed in my pouch as I will always find that one that is too short or turns out to be a combo head or some such thing. When you are helping someone else and using their screws sometimes you switch from phillips to square to torx and back based on what they have. I pity the poor sucker that ever has to take some of it apart, sure hope it ain't me again.

I don't even put trim up with nails anymore. They make special trim screws. Now if only all screws used the same bit that would be great. I have Phillips, square, square/phillips, torn in 3 sizes, spend half my time trying to fund the right bit.

In literally worked all day once setting buoys, schlepping anchors etc. Then while setting in truck I reached over to grab a water bottle off the passengr seat and thought I had ben shot. Pulled a muscle in my back enough to put me down and on muscle relaxers for a few days. Or things like helping someone build a deck, then darn near knock yourself out on a freezer door, it's exciting things like that keep life interesting.

Screws!

I still get yelled.at for.doing stuff like unloading 50lb bag of dog food etc. But honey my shoulder is getting better! Yeah until something slides and you automatically grab for it with that arm. So being an exerinced husband of a nurse I do what anyone else would do. I unload it when she isn't around! I no longer tolerate heat well, fortunately grass is all.dried up so no need to mow. In missouri you are never more than 2 weeks grom a drought or 2 hours from a flash flood.

Oh hell I could live on that thing easily.

It doesnt. But Jayhawk colors would be well unsettling. The redacted letter clears everything up. 😩

We are going classic summertime tonight as well. Brats on the grill, wife's recipe baked beans, and pasta salad. Mmmmmmmm.

I can see the items that "create the appearance of human habitation". Heck I know where one is painted purple and white (actually haven't been by it in a while so not entirely sure), which I guess is better than say Jayhawk colors.

I would have ro see a letter with that in it before I believe it.

I am convinced that crabgrass reseed itself from rain. The only place I don't have crabgrass oddly is my asparagus, maybe it doesn't like the salt.

I am more of, treat them like a chicken killing dog. I despise theives.

Theft has been bad in a lot of places this year, guess the dopers did not get as much Covid relief as they needed. He the main reason I never hire any part time help with stuff is partly because I just don't want anyone around to see what tools etc i.might have. Hell of they needed some to do work elsewhere i would probably give them some, but dang it i hate theives. Ground is dry and rocky and don't own a back hoe so digging holes to hide them is a lot of work.
