OMG that would suck to have to live with. People on PWC's do that chasing each other crap all the time, they need to KNOCK IT OFF !

It's a stupid rule. I'd ignore it, but that's just me because the hefers at the DMV just love to make your life complicated. Truthfully I find trolling motors on canoes a PIA and not that beneficial but some folks like it, so...

Way to friggin GO! We need to talk.

Absolutely, Just keep RPM's below 2000.

Nice. I'm just of the mindset that by the time whoever handles donations for foreign charity takes their cut (oh yes they do!) that very little goes where it was intended. Screw them, help your neighbors instead and actually get to see it, that way if it ends up supporting someones drug habit you can redirect elsewhere. Let the rich basturds in India worry about the needy there. Sounds coarse I know, but hey....

Kids in India benefit. Cool! Why do guys like that always choose to do all their donating overseas? You don't have to go very far from Dora, Mo. to find some needy children. I sure do have a different way of looking at things than everyone else. Makes me wonder which of us is the most ate up in the head. I like Myron too, he is always a sweetheart....but I wish he'd keep a little money and buy a brush hog and a weed eater. Maybe hire someone to grade the road once a year.

Which ones are you fishing, Ethan ? What area of the lake do you call home?

Mark, Camdenton Wal-Mart has Arkie heads that will do just fine. The better fish are behind the docks on steep banks with seawalls though.... No place for 6-8# line and wimpy rods because you have to wrestle them over cables. As crazy as it might sound, the better fish actually like the added cover of a pair of cables just under the surface. If the cables are out of the water it is less likely to hold a 3+ pounder. Luckily at the current lake level most cables are under the surface.

Apparently so, it's taking 16-18# to get a check on Tuesday nights. Pretty sure it's a seawall bite and not 20' brushpiles though. You ain't gonna Ned rig THOSE fish.

I dunno, I moved from Mexico to Atlanta for work (4 years), and when I came back nothing was the same. It sucked. At first I thought it was because my head was full of lake Lanier tactics, but all my homeboy buddies told me that it had just diminished as a fishery during that time. I took that as a challenge and since I was drawing Ga.unemployment and didn't have to work for awhile I set out to show them they were wrong. I fished long and hard in all the best areas of MT but my buddies were right. The bass just weren't there, and the few that were didn't look so good. I gave up in '89 and moved to LO fulltime, never to go back. I still talk to my homeboys up there, they are all good fishermen and still hit it fairly regularly, but they say it still isn't "right" and kicks their butt more times than not. Back in the day there were certain small channel swing coves that we could almost guarantee taking a solid limit from every time. And the brushy hump at Florida....Oh...My...Gawd! Big bass were all over that thing if you could hit it on a day that the wind wasn't unruly. You used to be able to pitch a 1/8oz Kastmaster spoon around cedar trees and load the boat with nice crappie all Summer long. We even used to catch limits of big crappie on Bomber 6A crankbaits without even really trying.

Yummy indeed ! Fish are for eating, even the bible says so....if you are all about that sorta thing. So those guys that bitch about it must be atheists.

I can't relax and enjoy eating in a fancy dining place. It's like eating at a preachers house. "Oh my goodness, that man just spit ice back into his glass, how preposterous and crude! And he is eating his steak with a salad fork. I shall write a complaint".

LMFAO! Oh that was good!

Where is report From awesome bass pond On cicada flavored popper?

Don't fall apart cuz they didn't bite TODAY. I purposely didn't go out cuz I kinda figured it was gonna be "one of those days". Hotter than hell, not a cloud in the sky....No thanks! Every bite would have been a fluke (and a short). The weekend looks promising though.

Since Ameren is so dedicated to screwing up the white bass spawn every year I might have to start eating Largemouth. Crappie are OK once in awhile but actually they lack flavor. All I taste when I eat crappie is the breading. Maybe we could hook up and you can teach me how to catch more Wally's.

Makes me wanna knife a limit of green bass on the LO forum just to see if anyone freaks out. I'm betting not. More likely I'll get thrown a good cornbread or cole slaw recipe. Cuz you see, we are all mature and s#it about our fishing up here.

We'd agree always if you weren't so ignernt.

Estrogen, that's what that^ is.

Haa! I dunno, that looks like a genuine pit viper to me. You did get your rod tip, right?

Where did this alleged "releasing of feral hogs" claim come from? Just cause you see a hog on your property doesn't mean folks are "releasing them there". Are we to assume that people are loading up hogs that they just don't want.....and dumping them there? Not sure I buy that. Who are the gracious individuals who own this land? I'm still not clear on that. And if someone gets busted cooking meth or growing out there can the feds not seize it ?

Larry, is your situation such that you don't have funds available to have the trailer relocated ? If so I would kinda force them to buy it from you. I mean if they are keeping you out of it but aren't accepting payment for the lot rent then it seems they need to settle up with you. Not sure how the sheriff would side, but they either need to allow you to reconnect utilities or they need to buy you out.

Did you have a contract/lease agreement with them ? If not then a lawyer is only gonna take your money without helping your cause.

If the boat traffic isn't too bad in that area you can just run the seawalls. Buzzbaits, spooks, jigs or T-rig lizards will draw some keeper bites tight to the walls now. When the waves are crashing the walls though it isn't worth the effort, go find some protected water where it isn't rockin and rollin until it settles down in the evening.
