I agree, it kind of muddies the water of what counts as a record when its controlled by stocking. The skill and patience of landing an 11 pound fish on 4 pound line is definitely something the kid should be proud of.

That's pretty cool. 50 bucks is fifty bucks. Especially if its for a by product anyhow. I wasn't aware that there was still a market for them.

Despite all the other issues, you still had a great day. That's a great reward.

Fun day!

Outer half, part number 322932. @fishinwrench, would you have one in your pile? Mine has a broken piece that holds the steering handle bushing. Im considering using some epoxy, but I know thats a temporary fix.

Them are good size. Well done.

Decided to grill some stuff. This is how I do my shrimp on the grill. It lacks the smoked flavor, but it is easy and the wife approves. Just a tab of salted butter, seasoning of your choice, wrap them in foil nice and tight wraps. I grill off of the heat about 10 to 15 minutes. It may be too long, but I got sick on shrimp once and now it has to be well done. The corn was the sme method. Frozen corn, but it was great. A couple nights ago, I tried to copy KFC's Famous bowl. I really like Walmart's Famous Chicken Tenders and decided to make a bowl. Turned out well. Bed of mashed potatoes, layer of whole kernal corn, chicken tenders, or popcorn chicken, covered with gravy, add shredded cheddar.

I plan to start chasing the slam this year. Im curious how many have completed it. It will not be an obsession for me, just want to set a new goal to achieve and and go after it.

Not the first on my list of desires. I am curious how you cook and eat them?

Lately, dinners have been very repetitive or simple. Last night was nearly the same. But ive been needing something to post, @nessgave the nudge, so.... I present nacho salad plates. Base layer of chips of your choice. Wife wanted Doritos, I had Tostitos rounds. Next layer was a bagged taco salad from Walmart. Then taco meat, cheese, and whatever extras you prefer. Turned out really good, but I forgot black olives.

Great advice.

Hope you got to enjoy your birthday. We want pictures. LOL

He was a great dog. Very obedient, and a friend to all he met. I'm very sorry Phil.

Keeping it simple. I love it.

I've never done one, nor attended one. If I get a chance I would like to attend one. I'm sure someone on here has some tips.

Happy birthday @Mrs. BilletHead and happy St Pat's day to everyone.

Sunday evening I tried something new. The wife hinted that she wanted some Lo Mein, I said, I'll give it a shot. It turned out well. My noodles to homeade sauce was off but it still tasted fine. Just need to double the sauce next time. I cubed the chicken breasts ( I prefer dark meat, but the wjmife doesn't) coated them in lemon pepper seasoning. Let them sit 15 or 20 minutes on the counter (This is a tried and true portion for my house.) Then I made the noodles per the package, get the ones that are for LoMein, not rice noodles. Found a sauce recipe on line, I think its simple teriyaki sauce homemade. I cooked the chicken in a skillet with approx 3/4 cup of teriyaki sauce from a bottle. Cook it over med high heat to cook down the juice in the chicken and the sauce. I cooked some veggies in a separate skillet, as the wife and kids won't eat them. Coat the noodles and serve.

I finally got a chance to get a line wet for a few hours. Caught my first fish of the year, just so happened Facebook had a then and now picture from 10 years ago. It was i believe my first OAF One Bass Tournament. I was on @Macsimus' boat. Kinda neat. Just a green sunfish, got a small bluegill, a tiny bass and a few small crappie as well. All on dome flies i tied, but using spinning gear. I tried fishing my local creek, the access was too muddy, I was sinking and not wearing boots. I came across a large dumping of concrete. I genuinely curious how they get the concrete and asphalt there to dump it. There is not easy access by a side by side much less a truck. The water is way too shallow to bring a barge. Any ideas?

Que up Jackson Brown... "Oh won't you Stay.... a little bit longer...."

Looks like I overshot the date.

200 on April 1

I was quite impressed with the speed and response it had for a 9.9 and 3 people on the boat.
