Floated over Memorial weekend and had a blast. I was catching them on a pats, and a 16 purple psycho prince. Buddy just nailed them on spinning gear and he probably caught 30 that day. Lot of good fish in the river.

I've come back and seen this thread a few times, and I don't know what shops you've been to, but the few that I've been around haven't been that way at all. Yeah a lot of them want you to buy a pricier rod, but frankly, they tend to be a better quality rod, that doesn't mean you'll catch more fish with them, but it may be a little less fatiguing, more sensitive, etc. Between Dally's, Mclellands, Plateau and a few others I've nothing but positive experiences, and trust me, I ain't wearing a rolex.

Hud is the best! I don't even want to hear the argument if you're a STL fan and like Mike Shannon. That dude is the worst.

Keep a frequent eye on steep and cheap. They put quite a bit of stuff up. or go check out plateau, no b.s. from the guys there.

If you get a good one they are always tasty with a bit of spice mixed in. really a metaphor for each other.

You can take some pretty great stills from the video. That way you dont actually have to worry about having a camera out and taking the picture.

Where I'm actually going to be this weekend at a buddies!

No. I know that it would help really create that diving wedge though. Picking some up this weekend when i'm in Springfield.

D&D. Those wedge heads really screw with me.

For the small low water stuff a 5 or 6 is fine. During the day I tip with 4 lb flouro. At night I fish 6. Mix the flies up until you find what they are wanting.for numbers I'm mostly fishing small leeches and sculpins.

This. All of this.

Especially when i didn't see ventura throwing punches like samardzija. ...

The problem is the Royals aren't backing off when teams get pushy. Eaton has even admitted he started jawing first, Ventura responded and the fight broke out. Samardzija is a clown who apparently has something against Cain, and was looking for him for no reason in that fight. Ventura needs to cool his head, I don't think he starts a lot of it but he can't let it get to him like he does. Samardzija and Sale have been harping on/taunting Cain from the dugout every chance they get just trying to rile everyone up. The A's and Sox are slowly making their way up to Detroit levels on who I don't like.

Pre rap warts are cool and all. .. but that is what I find most interesting in the whole topic. .

Not playing victim, it is just open season on the batters because teams don't like that we aren't playing like the perennial cellar dwellers like we had been. It sucks because we are finally putting something together and have players getting hurt because pitchers don't have the necessary control to be pitching inside on people.

Royals have 12 Hit batters, Giants have 11. Next is like 4. I don't like when pitchers go out and just start playing bean ball, but if it doesn't change even more players are going to get hurt. Most of the HBP probably aren't intentional, but they sure are not sad about Rios' .321 average being out of the lineup because of it.

That's part of what i actually like about it...

7-0..

Night. Taney.

Caught a few on DaddyO's Sculpins, I've fished them all though. Mikes and Triggs look like they'll pull a big fish if I can get on some good high water.

24. Most of the people I fish with are under 30 as well.

both. but i like my 7 more if there is much current to fight them in.
