It’s getting better, should get really good with calendar birds next weekend.

Muenster makes the best grilled cheese. Perfect texture.
-
Smoked Pepper dust! That would make it the Cajun Royale!

Upgraded my griddled egg sandwiches in the blind this AM, Muenster cheese! Takes it up a notch or five, from processed American goo.

Will see what flies in the AM, front moving through

Just a poor boy duck club, there are many, and many better.

Its been really slow. No wind, and its been hot on the east side. Saw 10-12 woodies, and a single mallard Wednesday AM, but they were not interested. Buddy & I called it at 8am and went to work. There is a front moving in tomorrow afternoon, finally wind, rain overnight, so we are gonna give it a go tomorrow afternoon and in the AM Saturday. Fingers crossed.

Have heard good things, I’m sure you’ll like it. 10’ rods are usually better roll casters than overhead. Learn a single Spey cast.

You want to pick a fight? LOL! It’s a great float, heck, I met my wife at Pulltite Group site 3 17 years ago.

Is what it is. Al A and I have told you it holds no fish below Akers for years. Picks up below Round Spring. Pulltite can hold trout sometimes.

No We Will Not Butcher Your Deer
Gavin replied to oneshot 1's topic in New News and General Discussion
Find a neighbor to process it. Take a referral fee. You folks poach a deer down there every time a freezer looks less than half full. -
Blue ribbon trout streams and water temperatures
Gavin replied to Skeeter ZX190's topic in Trout Talk
The rainbows would likely do well if left on their own but you would have to close the trout parks to make it work on the trout park streams. That will not happen ever I think. Missouri is a status quo state. -
Blue ribbon trout streams and water temperatures
Gavin replied to Skeeter ZX190's topic in Trout Talk
I haven't heard anything about it. They have been planting brown trout eggs in Vibert Boxes out a Westover Farm, trying to establish a native stream bred population. They have planted eggs two years in a row, and had some success with it. -
Blue ribbon trout streams and water temperatures
Gavin replied to Skeeter ZX190's topic in Trout Talk
Some rain and a break in the temperature in the forecast. I hope we get it. It’s super dry out there right now. -
The hotel business really took it in the teeth during the pandemic, but they are coming back strong. Revenues are up around 45%, over pre pandemic levels.

If the neighbors over the levy flood this, we should be in tall cotton, looks like they are going too,

Day trips pay off on my Blue Ribbon Trout Slam attempts
Gavin replied to Jthawks's topic in General Angling Discussion
This might help...Hwy 19, & Current River State Park is just to the west. Water was very low on the Current last weekend. I didn't even fish. Barren Fork.pdf -
I did a solo cast & blast on the upper Current during spring turkey season this year. Didn’t even hear a Turkey but the trout fishing was great. Plan to do it again next year. I see lots of turkey in the winter down there, but I gotta figure out their spring haunts.

Security a river accesses? Safe to leave car overnight?
Gavin replied to Conor's topic in Bourbeuse River
All you can do is live your life, and leave nothing in your vehicle. I remember a float with a former member here, we’re he jumped some meth heads car while we were running shuttle and they paid him back by siphoning his gas tank. -
I use it as a crayfish pattern, that creek is full of 2” long crayfish. Camped there with my kids and some others families and took the kids swimming in that cold water on a 100 degree day. The kids collected a hundred or so 2” craws in 15 minutes.

I'm a fan of one at a time as well.

Got A Suggestion - Customizing A Simple Nymph
Gavin replied to mic's topic in Fly Tying Discussions & Entymology
CDC traps air bubbles, but I would not call it floatation. Air bubbles shine, and that is to your advantage sometimes. You can see some big egg laying flights of caddis on the Current at dusk, mid April. They aren’t hatching but they are dropping eggs and some drown. You might get into some trico’s around 10-12am Sept-October, but this IS the deal this time of year🦗 🪲 , 🐜 .
