Im always in for meeting new people.

I love her, I can truthfully say she makes me a better fishermen every single time I go out and teaches me something every time.... All the best boats, rods, reals, baits and electronics don't mean diddly poo if you don't listen to what your being told on the water that given time. My tackle box was massive when I started on her I had to have everything under the moon! That was stupid on my part and I really should have known better by that point in my life. Biggest lesson I have had to relearn every stinking time is find out what works and use it... Now my boxes are stocked full of what works and all the other stuff is collecting dust someplace ( probably the same place my wife says my shotgun shells breed, its a scary cabinet ). If I could tell newbies one thing its you only need, Keitechs, Flicker Shad, Rapala SR series, XPS spoons in white and silver white, Bobby Garland crappie jigs and assorted Surface baits like PopR and Pencil Poppers and a good selection of circle hooks and split shots.

Because it is our RIGHT as guaranteed by the second Amendment. Reading the direct quotes from some of our founding fathers the reasoning for gun ownership was not just the ability to hunt for food but to defend ones self, family, state and country from attack and even from abusive government. Here are but a few. And this is probably one of the most powerful And the reasoning There are many more and these are the words of those who wrote the Constitution and Declaration. That is why we should be able to without INFRINDGEMENT! Our founders meant it to be that way so WE THE PEOPLE could insure Liberty and if need be Toss out an oppressive government. I will leave you with this though as not once have I heard it brought up. If guns are so evil why do people need knives they can run down a hall at a school and injure 20 people? It is not the inurnment object that is the problem! It is the person using it.

Now that looks fun.... hmmmmmmmmm

I have said this before to people... If you can consistently produce on Beaver then you can on any lake around she is the best teacher a person can ask for if you let her teach you. A big plus is knowing the seasons and areas the fish should be in. I'm following a annual pattern and its paying off. Go back and read the reports on here and you can see a pattern and method to my madness.

This time of year the flickers are just a fish finder, im locating the depth, location and type of fish then switching to more effective means of putting numbers in the boat.

are you fishing active fish or just fishing an area you marked fish on the graph? When I start the day I like to pull flicker shad for a few hours, I will mark where I caught a fish and go back over its a couple times. When I hit an area that produces 2 or three fish I know I have actively feeding fish and then I switch to the Bobby Garlands for crappie or Keitechs for Walleye and Bass. Its all about finding the active fish and the graph will help you find the fish the flickers will tell you the species and if they are active and then the other presentation will fill the live-well.

would not surprise me Beaver has 4 different pairs of BWT that nested up and seeing the little ones has been a treat this year. I cant ever remembering seeing so many geese with little ones as this year either. September just cant get here fast enough.

Good points PDR. Ive been following the spawn/active fish for a few weeks. they were up river about 6 weeks ago then at 12 bridge the last 3 and now at rocky branch for about 3 weeks then on to Starky area. You have to follow the active fish this time of year and then in summer be willing to do a ton of trolling on flats in deep water for suspended fish post spawn.

Don't get caught up in the one technique mentality, If it isn't working change it up may only take a twitch of the rod a pause of the reel any number of things and be confident every cast is a fish.

Pearl white is all im using on the same jig head you are. I am just trying different speeds on the retrieves and depths. Saturday they wanted it very slowly crawled along the bottom, week before it was at mid depths. My biggest asset is paying attention to my electronics to locate them and then figuring out the presentation needed.

Never paid attention to the eggs other than they were there I was going for the meat.... When they are done spawning typically I find them suspending over flats or along the channel edges.

Full of eggs still

Shhhhhh your going to give the TR Bass anglers fits. I love right at the end seeing two trout blow past doing Mach 3.

The only way to have seen top water action yesterday would have been the action on the surface created by the night befores dinner being yaked up. This would be the perfect time of year to be pulling a AC Plug behind the boat or two and have the fly rod ready for side of boat action.

I am sorry I did not go back to read the entire thread, you said A simple response would have gone a long way not everyone wants to go back and re-read the entire thread or all the press releases to find out if he had one. You asked why he needed and AutomaticM4 Specifically used his name. I asked if I missed something pretty simple question to answer I would think.

If you had read my very first question let me make it again very clear for you I would not have come back with my knowledge of weapons! Instead you just have to be an butt and not simply give an answer like ( No FNF I was just asking he only had the pistol ) But instead you cannot just answer a simple question. I even went on in my last post to state the only weapon mentioned was a Pistol! That is the reasoning behind the first question and to why I was wondering about your conversation about an Automatic M4.

Launch out of PC would be best and start looking there and work your way down to Rocky Branch. That is the best bet I have.

Drew I have shot MANY full-auto's from Thompson's to an MG34! I also have shot numerous semi-auto rifles and own several ( semi's). There is no way on Gods Earth or any other Galaxy I can put the volume of lead downrange in the same amount of time with a Semi-Auto that I can with a Full-Auto it is IMPOSSIBLE! Hence BIG DIFFERENCE between the two types. A full auto you pull the trigger one time and it don't stop till its out of ammo or until you let go. A semi-auto you pul one time it shoots and rechambers another round then you have to pull again. Now either you did not read the question and only browsed it or you do not understand what I asked. I thought I made it as simple and clear as possible, (1) Did Crocker have a FULLY AUTOMATIC M4? Yes or No simple answer. (2) If he did have one did he have a permit for it? Yes or No or you don't know. I DO NOT recall reading anywhere about Crocker and a Full-auto M4 so that is why I am asking how that got brought up all reports said were PISTOL. Simple questions really.

Ummmm who says I don't already.

Did I miss something with Crocker? Did he posses a "FULLY- AUTOMATIC" M4 or was it just an Automatic? Big difference between full and semi! And if he did posses a Full auto did he have a permit for it? If so then there is no law broken there.

Ya'll can KMA, Where in Gods name would I put one more add-on ..... Now on the other hand J-doc is getting a Brand New Sparkling New Boat I think all further experimentation should be performed on his boat!
