    Nesstradamus.

    Great dog, cool story, thanks.

    Been a regular for about 25 years. Anymore it's only for spring and early summer Bluegill. In all these years I probably haven't fished more than 10% of the water.

    Are you saying we need to be more like: Japan, Switzerland, Germany, Denmark, Hong Kong, Finland, Netherlands, Austria, Singapore, France, Sweden, Belgium, Canada?
  5. Greasy B
    Yeah, that was great. Pay back for all that chest thumping the Dodgers did the night before. A fine example of how being cocky will get you nowhere.

    Ha ha, your list looks familiar. I have what I need: Guns, Liquor, Ammo,

    I agree but did make an exception with the playoff game Saturday. We listened on a tiny hand crank radio. As soon as the game started the fish turned on. As the game progressed the action just got faster and faster and peaked out at the ninth inning. Just as Mike Shannon declared it a winner the sun went over the hills and the action stopped. It was kind of magical.

    Great report, thanks.

    Maybe that's why I haven't had problems with coons . I can't imagine not having garlic and onion in my food cooler.

    Can we start speculating on where? Doesn't look like the type of boat a person would use in the Ozarks. The pier in the background looks suspicious too.
  11. Greasy B
    Yep, and the coons aren't a problem unless you pick a gavel bar frequented by slobs.

    Crappie on soft hackles?

    It was a great game. I could have done without the Bozo's who called the game. I don't think they bothered to learn the team.

    Yes I would suggest a small shift from put and take to put, grow and take. The majority of the fishery on the majority of the lake is basically unrestricted, I would hope some restrictions wouldn't be too much of a cultural change. Stocking rates could also be reduced to be more inline with capacity. I would be curious to hear the managers response to the simple question: Where is the most cost effective place to raise fish , the hatchery or the lake?

    Phil, I believe you made a comment in a previous thread that the average stay of a Rainbow below Fall Creek is 30 days. Isn't this a terribly inefficient way to manage a fishery. Once in the lake food is free, growth rates are very high and space is abundant. Using the lake to grow fish would have a much lower cost per inch of fish. If 30 days became 90 days the results would be dramatic. Maybe the average fish would be as high as 15" with no additional cost.
  16. Greasy B
    Yep, everyday stuff for us mere mortals.

    The resilience of some aquatic life is amazing. I work in north St. Louis county where the streams are concrete channels or are severely polluted. I often see Mayflies during the day and Caddis swarming the lights in the evening.
  18. Greasy B
    Yes, wonderful. Not quite as good as being there but it helps.
  19. Greasy B
    Thanks for the comments. Yeah, the fish that got away was 6" from the net and in plain view. I figure 22" or so.
  20. Greasy B
    Wow wee,
  21. Greasy B
    Good grief, a true pig.

    I guess all the room a River Jon has isn't that important for one day or half day trips but the bro and I just finished a 7 day trip, 5 of those days were 12 hours long. We had 5 tackle bags, 3 nine foot fly rods, 3 baitcasters, 2 spinning rods and 2 catfish rod all rigged and splayed for easy reach and enough room that they almost never tangled, I never tripped over any and all were tucked within the gunwales.

    Sweet boat, I like my river boat because its quiet, slippery and roomy. I can load my Shawnee with gear for 4 days and both fishermen will still have twice the standing room as a typical decked aluminum boat. I can't tell how much rocker this boat has but the Shawnee will turn on a dime making eddy turns and peel outs a breeze.
  24. Greasy B
    Wow, great fish!
  25. Greasy B
    Can we see a picture?
