    Squirrel?

    Look up Mark Rober Squirrel Proof Bird Feeder on Youtube. Just shoot them if your neighbors are OK with it. I like my .22 break barrel air rifle. Pick one brand of pellet and stick to it.
  2. Aluminum! Never had any but a 12’ closet rod though.
  3. I don't believe in Fairies!

    Whatchya Drinking?

    Bloody Mary service...at brunch...at the Commander's Palace in NOLA....I want to do that again, and again.

    Lets just settle the rum drunk incident Ness. Was a tasty, expensive drunk that I do not want to repeat! Have not seen you in camp for several years. Andy is battery operated now. Might have to erect a Farady cage around his tent, and nab his ciggy's.
  6. More Whiskey will cure it. That egg nog is nasty stuff.
  7. Gambas al Ajillio....best there is!

    Duck sliders.....Semble, should have a few ducks left. Had a good hunt with him on Sunday. Learned a bunch of things. He is way over my level on the ducks. Was a great time.
  9. Al tends to think to much. Recall a convo where he was considering the optimum gas mileage on a canoe shuttle. We stopped him right there.
  10. Anyone want a wobbly, warped bottom canoe, that is due for skid plates? I'm gonna pass sight unseen. Pick a price, take some pics, and put it on Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace. They sell quickly.
  11. Have never wanted the PW to that forum. It will probably alter my opinion about some of you, and I really do not want to know.
  12. You can swing it hard and kill something with it......A firearm without ammo is just a rock or a stick.
  13. Buddy of mine catches a fair number of Asian carp while bank fishing on the Lower Meramec (SoCo/Arnold area).

    Caught my best under a Hwy bridge too, LOL. You could probably see my Travel Trailer in the storage lot across the bridge.
  15. You gotta get out of STL to see them. Great stargazing in the Ozarks though.
  16. You can see the SpaceX Starlink satellites occasionally.
  17. Mitch, contact Sahm Welding in Washington, MO. Owned by my wife’s high school friends. They make all the Gateway Drum Smokers.
  18. I think it is allot harder to cast 100' with a 5wt. They don't "hover in the air." unless your hot wind is running😄!
  19. Had a stripping basket years ago. Used it maybe twice to fish a spillway for wipers in IL. Found it to be more trouble than it was worth. Used to be able to cast over 100’ with a 5wt. It takes some instruction, and regular practice to do that the first time, and regular practice to keep it up. Used to cast with some guys who we’re going for FFF CCI, and Master CCI certifications, and they helped me allot.

    Slow!

    Nice, went out yesterday am before work. Saw a few bunches, a few worked briefly but none committed and dropped into the timber hole we were in. Heard some shooting from some nearby blinds in flooded standing corn.
  21. Floating really isn't that much work. Figure 10-15 minutes to load or unload a boat & gear, and 20-30 minutes to shuttle vehicles times two.. Basically an hour and a half per float trip, unless if you have someone to drop you off upstream.
  22. Caught a pair of lipstick lesbians putting on a show upstream from Suicide Hill years ago. You see strange people, and strange behavior on the river sometimes...The more popular the river, the stranger it gets.
  23. I prefer to float but I like to wade fish too. It really depends on how much time I have. I try to allow time for scouting/wade fishing on travel days.
  24. Will have a traditional T-day dinner while camping on Friday or Saturday, but w/o the rest of our usual T-day camp group. Turkey, homemade mashed, homemade sage dressing, fresh green beans, giblet gravy, and canned cranberries (both ways). Have done a few cranberries recipes but the girls demand Ocean Spray.
