Awesome catch.

Fun times. Great write up. Lots of opportunities there and you seemed to get your money's worth.

I have no experience with any of the lane assist features. I'm sure it will be a thing that isn't optional soon, but I'm not ready.

I seem to remember on that was canceled due to potential ice, and the first Taneyfest was in lieu of it. Turns out the weather down there was better than what we had in Branson.

I apologize, and take full responsibility. You see, Friday I power washed my deck with plans to re stain it on Sunday. Well, we all know how that eneded, or hasn't.

There are trout in every state? That could be interesting. One way to fish and visit every state.

My nearest pond is in a city park. It currently looks like pea soup. I dont want to further stress the residents. I drive bybit multiple times daily. The bluegill herons are standing 10 to 15 feet further from the banks than they usually do. I even seen one standing in the water in the center of the lower Meramec River at hwy I-55 last week.

I've got a new 2 weight fly rod thats been burning to be used. But as you've seen, the waters on this side of the state are not looking great and the high temps aren't helping. I've just been holding out.

Well, I just turned 47, and have never been on a regular daily pill. That finally changed, but I'm gonna work to keep that from being long term. This is told to show one of the things I've done for a while Here's a tip, or hack or idea tha I use to make clean up easier. I put a cutting board in a cookie sheet. Any juice or scraps are captured in the cookie sheet. Works well for pineapple, melons or any meats as well.

While it does make me chuckle, it is definitely a mean act. I would be giggling in surprise if I came across them. For the record, I do not condone it, though. Just in case someone decides to hold this against me 20 years from now.

Wife made these last night. They were really good. Bread bowls were found in Walmart bakery, I believe they were called boules.

I went to test 'Ol Frankenstein again, due to low water in the streams near me, I have to drive about an hour. I tow with my van, and was kinda humored to see another one very similar to mine at the boat launch parking lot. As I was planning to leave I saw the other red Van was pulling thier boat out. After I got my boat out and was securing everything I got a chance to talk to the couple who were in the van. The lady was wearing a Lilley's Landing cap, as was I. I didn't want to sound too creepy and ask for a picture, lol. I told them of the forum. Hopefully they become members.

I said lots of laughs, I never said comfortable laughs. Come on out. We'd love to see ya.

I dont know it specifically, but it looks like one of Busch's Wildlife lakes with rentals.

Just to clarify, this gathering is open to everyone that is an Ozark Anglers Forum (OAF) member. What to expect cost wise depends on how many split the cost, average is about $150/person, and some kind of food to share. New people are always welcome. This is a relaxed environment, a bunch of guys and sometimes spouses who enjoy fishing. We have opportunity to wade fish if the water permits, and opportunities to rent boats, and many times we have enough personal boats brought down. We staying very nice houses/cabins with fully stocked kitchens. This is a great opportunity to meet some of the members on here, old and new. Come on out. Lots of laughs to be had. We stay at Rileys Outfitters in Mountain Home, AR.

Luckily you had the big net.

Where is this watermelon camouflage bag you speak of? I think you forgot to post that picture. LOL

I'm happy to say I was on the civilized side. LOL

I agree with everything that was said above. I'm not familiar with those waters and what the typical fish counts may be. I can tell you from personal experience, just because they are there, and you can see them doesn't mean they will bite. Even if you caught many the day before in the same location with the exact same setup. Just keep trying, and have fun. Catching fish is just a bonus.

That poor guy is gonna be spending alot of time up there now.

Was gonna try out 'ol Frankenstein on the water today. The water had other plans. My son Lucas got some practice towing and backing the boat though. This is the Joachim Creek Herculaneum boat ramp across fron Kade's Playground. Looks like I'll be needing a jack plate. Who has simple recommendations?

Back in the earlier days of ethernet we often had to use a crossover cable to connect 2 similar devices. I'm not sure if that may be your issue. A standard ethernet cable would not allow the devices to communicate.

Thts how I like my baked beans. I can't believe many places, especially barbecue places dont do them this way.

We came down to White River in Arkansas at Rileys Outfitters to celebrate birthdays for Cody @gotmuddy, and Ryan's @Ryan Miloshewski birthdays. Rick@Terrierman, and DJ showed up. Food as always was great. Water was up and really pushing on the river. I caught my best brown at 21 and 1/2 inches on Friday on the White, and Cody caught a 18" smallie on the Buffalo on Saturday.

It should hold enough weight that only one person has been affected. Of the amounts of people who are in the lake daily unaffected, I would have to believe other factors contribute to the issue. But media will always sell.
