  1. Your pretty much helpless in the salt unless you know tides, and have a boat to get to where the fish will be when the tide moves. You can bridge or pier fish, but that is a snore.
  2. I always laugh when a guide ties a dry & dropper on my rig. Clip, that nymph is going away. I'm paying for a boat ride, not bobber fishing.
  3. Nothing against Arky trout guides. The problem was every GD Arky trout guide wanted to come up to STL and speak. I got sick of there offers, so I decided to book none of them. Phil gave a good presentation at Ozark with a young man whom I cant remember. Ryan maybe, not Doty.
  4. Awesome catch, good for you!
  5. I booked him to speak at Ozark Fly Fishers in St. Louis 20 something years ago. Nice guy, but his fee was pricey, and it was not a great presentation. He was on my do not book list along with "NO SHOW" Lefty Kreh and every Arkansas trout guide.

    STL 101- If you see women walking around midday dressed in lululemon, you’re good. If you see grown men lifting weights, and smoking cigs with their buddies midday,, you are in danger.

    White Castle is still strong in STL. Do you know that a WC slider is never flipped. It's steamed on those onions that glue themselves to your vehicles dashboard.

    Looking good. We are another 3-4 weeks out on the remodel but the conditions are improving
  9. So long Flip. He was a nice man amd he gave me some casting pointers 25 years ago. Hope he saw a tarpon gulp, get tight, and jump a few times before his light switch got… turned off.
  10. I have 9 empty gallon jugs available. The are empty white liquid pool shock bottles. Porch pickup in the 63119. I may have more by Labor Day. Holler up if you want them.
  11. You could give it to ME, and let me waste it with the same results.
  12. That would scare a vulture off a gut pile!
  13. Not fun. My wife’s older brother did that and did not like it much.He killed himself.by OD on benzo’s. We found about 200 doses of Xanax when we cleaned his condo out.
  14. Good for you Phil! Make sure you that your CPA contacts someone to do a cost segregation study on the place. It is usually money well spent.
  15. I think the brain eating Amoeba's already got most of you and you survived!😀
  16. Glad you had a great trip! Thank you for sharing it with us!
  17. Sounds like fun. I usually toss the chainsaw in the canoe if the stretch is not served by a rental.
  18. It's a good show. Supa plays in another band called "The Garbanzo's". They play the Venice Cafe occasionally. Usually during the Soulard Mardi Gras.

    We have been cooking in the back yard for over a month now. Loving the blackstone and the air fryer, hope to finish up in the next few. Counters on Thursday we hope.
  22. Al is spot on. You won’t catch more than a handful between Akers & Pulltite. 5 fish of any species would be a good day and arse hooked minnows count on that stretch. Great float though. The Jacks will be over by October, the fish seem to move out mid September.
  23. Think I still have a Billethead bug somewhere, it has caught a few fish.
  24. I do not know, but I'd probably call the park service...https://www.nps.gov/ozar/planyourvisit/conditions.htm or any of the nearby CG's/Boat Rental operations.
  25. You can heat the bill on a jointed rapala bend it to a 90 a bit, and it will wake. Still love the Mann's 1- and the baby 1-, and the redfin....Well, you will need to buy a few redfins to find one that runs well. There are some good old threads on hear.
