"Creation" study required.
The obstacle you are struggling with lies with your level of intellect. Sorry 🤷
This is what happens when a person who just learned to build a paper airplane proudly steps into a room of brilliant engineers.
Explain something to me..... If the force to move a plane, fast enough to make it fly, is greater than the overall weight of the body of the plane (minus the engine) then what keeps the body of the plane from spinning at a rate of at least 1/3 of the RPM that the propeller spins ?
Planes don't have stationary "trim tabs" like outboard motors do.....or do they?
*** Only descendants of airplane engineers need reply.
And while we're at it......What pitch blade do I need to convert my Snapper mower into a hover-craft ?
Not really 🤔
Clear water lakes seem to maintain a better bass fishery on lakes that fluctuate wildly. The fish can successfully spawn deeper in that environment than they can on heavily stained or muddy water lakes.
Crappie can spawn in the trees, catfish can spawn deeper in total darkness, and temperate bass spawn in the creeks.
Largemouth need a gradually sloping shoreline and reasonably steady water levels. Truman and Mark Twain lack that nowadays.....but they didn't used to. Both Truman and MT were excellent bass lakes before they started allowing the levels to fluctuate so much. Blame the COE I guess. 🤷
Don't you dare! I actually take offense to it.
If you didn't take part in my creation, and aren't obligated to present me with a gift, then there's no reason for you to celebrate (or even mention) the day that my momma squirted me out.
🙄
It's a fairly looong river too. The stretch that the Leadmine area Amish haunt is relatively small.....and they work pretty steady too, so their actual free-time to spend on the river isn't like you and me.....who spend more time fishing than we spend doing what we SHOULD be doing. 😅
I hope they enjoyed their fish fry. 👍
Instead of climbing a tree I think I'd try to put a few more rounds in her face. Pretty sure she'd change her mind before she got close enough to taste me. I wouldn't be carrying a .44 mag unless I was good enough with it to hit a freakin' bears head. How many rounds of 12ga. slugs or loads of 00 Buckshot do ya reckon it would take to make a bears eyes fog up?
And hopefully her cubs get to witness it, so that the next time they smell human they won't get any more stupid ideas like their momma did.
And the moral of the story is......
Shoulda let him shoot the bear and avoided all of the unnecessary drama. 👍
A man with a .44 is THE apex predator. Bears need to just go ahead and learn that.
I'm proud to say that the only "outlet fishing" I've ever done was at night, in the fog, when nobody else was standing there.
If you're going to partake in that insanity, that's just something you'll have to get used to.
My mom worked for awhile at the home of the criminally insane (Biggs unit in Fulton). One of her favorite things to say, after telling you a story about one of the inmates, was......"And if you think they are all locked safely away, you are badly mistaken".
They walk among us. 😳
One of my old flyfishing buds used to start softly talking to himself (saying really insane $#!t) when folks got too close. Talking just loudly enough that they could understand it.
It creeped them out, and they'd slowly and quietly move away. Worked every time. He didn't have to worry about them coming back either.
He'd start mumbling about strangling his neighbors cat, shoving Hot Wheels in his dogs butt, or ripping his mailman's arm off and beating him over the head with it.....stuff like that. 😅
Try it, it works!
And just like that..... you're six years old again. 🤗
No worries.
No chores.
Only have to bathe once a week.
Food and snacks are free and carried to you.
If you make a mess....just step in it and walk away, somebody else will clean it up.
You don't even have to clean your room or make your bed.
Yep, I see where this is going. And I approve. 👍 Makes me want a Pop-Sickle 😋
It wouldn't have taken a biologist to know it was going to be a waste of time/energy. Any halfway decent skeptic could have pointed it out before the second step was placed. 😂
I was told that the ladder didn't work like they thought it would, so it was a bit of an embarrassment for them.
No need to feel embarrassed, it was worth a try, and a cool project. 🤷
Sure seems to be.
The constant and drastic lake-level fluctuations, combined with the heavily stained water, make the Truman ecosystem far more friendly to pelagic species like Crappie, White bass, Blue cat, and Hybrid Stripers.
Bluegill aren't doing well there either.
