    I casted with Lefty a few times and never got much out of it. My late friend Jerry Clark “the Single Malt Plumber” really upped my casting game, along with guys like Jim L, Brad E, and Brian E. The were all going for their Master Caster test and I’d cast with them.

    Na think all will be fine, I’m sure I can out cast him for distance and accuracy, but odds are on him for fishing in his 5 county area. There is NO animosity, I’m sure it will be fun!

    I’d bet that FW can school me at fishing. He does it Allot more than I do. He has good knowledge to share.

    Casting shoot out, fish, drink, any order is fine. I’m grinding out the last two weeks of duck season. Will start fishing again on 1/5/2023.

    Nope, same pole to make it same for a casting contest. 3 casts max for total distance, 3 targets (hula hoops) at various distances overhead. 3 casts at each. Fishing contest after. I just wanna take your whiskey and you might get it back.

    LOL, those are chop sticks! My scrap strips out of a 12’ culm are much better. Will see what is in the scrap pile,

    I’d bet you a case of beer/bottle of whiskey (your choice) and you bring equal value if I win. I’ll use your rod and outcast you. Guess your celebrating legal MO 420 a bit early🤣

    Looks like fun, if you want to build a full size six strip bamboo I own most of the tooling, know where to get access to the rest, Havent made one from scratch in 15 years, but I split a culm of cane & started on some strips last year.

    Dunno, I’ve always learned allot from folks who are better at something than me. Your welcome to learn your own way. I used to cast regularly with some very good fly casters, some FFF certified, some master certified. Master is a pretty tough test. Think the late Jerry Clark did allot to correct my mechanics.

    It is not a common material. Fly shop suppliers like Wapsi Fly Company don't sell it. I'm sure you can find a use for it if you get your own hide..

    Nice report, thanks!

    They have been sitting and eating at night under this near full moon. Report of lots flying in the fog & mist this afternoon. Go kill them.

    Ducks are hear on the east side, but not moving much. Been pretty good so far, but we are in an approaching full moon, no wind, and warm funk.

    Cardiac Hill

    Gavin replied to mic's topic in Meramec River

    I haven't been down there in years. It's quicker to access the river just down the road a Suicide Hill. Go down on to the left of the access if facing the river. Pretty easy to walk to Meramec Springs and back from there. Its only about 2 miles one way.

    That is an incredibly tragic story. Nature can kill you quickly.

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