  1. When wearing waders and dressed for cold weather, don't wait until the last second to go pee. It takes a good minute to root out the root under relaxed conditions. When in a panic it takes an extra 45 seconds and your bladder might explode.
  2. I looked it up online and then proceeded to make some out of white bass eggs. Started with about 4lbs and ended up with about 1/2 cup. Tasted like Salt Jelly.
  3. More BS. Unless the paddlefish ate themselves, and the shad, out of house and home first.
  4. Says who? Everything I've ever seen you do is 1st class awesome.
  5. Yeah, it's because they have warrants for non-support, or they have a killer toothache.
  6. Oh yeah, the KC catfish marketing gig..... Eww buddy, that'll net a guy almost the same amount of dough as dumpster diving for aluminum cans. Get outa here with that hogwash ! 🙄 Believe me, if there was decent money to be made selling fish there'd be at least a few of us on here doing it.
  7. Yeah, Meth and Adderall. I don't suspect it, I know it for a fact. If they ever did a piss test at a "Trail" tournament I bet you'd be shocked.
  8. The only reason I can think of for MDC being all S.W.A.T. about eggs from paddlefish is that it cuts into their side-business. The dead paddlefish that line the banks during and immediatly after snagging season aren't the result of mass poaching, they are the result of their imposed length limit. Who cares if somebody snatches the eggs from them, unless you are part of a cartel that is selling them yourself? I challenge the tales of paddlefish carcasses, minus the eggs, being found along roadways. That's the biggest crock of bull I've ever heard. If you were just harvesting eggs then you wouldn't leave the lake with the whole fish..... you'd take the eggs and loose the fish before ever going back to the ramp. And if you were smart at all you'd leave them on ice at somebody's dock and go get them later. I ain't buying any of this BS. It's fake news.
  9. I wish they would have quoted ME ! 😄 If you think nobody from the MDC has ever trafficked any spoonbill eggs.....😏
  10. We have had a fox den in a big rock pile about 70 yards from our back door for about 6 years now. Oddly enough we seldom ever see them. I only know they are still there because of the footprints in the last snow we had. Very VERY sneaky critters.
  11. Nice! Now to get busy dying squirrel hides. 😊 Cuz natural only works about 20% of the time.
  12. Yup, less people = less trash. Wanna make a bet that most trash comes from those spincast totin' boneheads?
  13. Whiskey season is almost over. I'll grab some the next stop at the liquor store.
  14. I just now picked up on that handle. 😄 That's a goodun.
  15. Food good ! Nice weather would be good too. Who all here is interested? Let's decide on a WHERE, then we can haggle over the WHEN.
  16. Beautiful 😍 Where did they come up with the names for those eastern rivers? Heavy on the Indians I reckon.
  17. Bob Gaston made a clamp from popsicle sticks, a clothespin and a big O-ring. Worked better than the Petitjean tool. The wood made working with the fibers easier than the slick clear plastic stuff. He'd rub a bit of wax on one popsicle stick edge (or just lick it), tap it down on the material to pick it up, then clamp it and put it into split thread. He called it "Lickety Split". 😃
  18. If they are raising those fish for the purpose of people catching and eating them, you'd think they would put their highly educated biology brains together and develop a feed that doesn't make the fish taste like slaughter house leftovers.
  19. That's some pale bourbon. What is that?
  20. Yeah I don't get the kayak thing either. Nothing about them appeals to me over a solo canoe. Not a single thing. I don't even understand why they were ever invented. Where's the actual niche?
  21. If you have an old sacrificial Wart you can take some 80 grit paper and make a pile of dust, then mix the dust with some 2-ton epoxy to make a paste and fill in the missing area.
  22. There's a ton of 9.9 and 15's out there. Get one bought for 4-500.00 and put a couple hundred into freshening it up. I'll have a good 20hp Merc tiller for sale as soon as I have time to go through it.
  23. I ordered a tricked out 2300KT from the Crosman custom shop and I sent that sucker right back. It was a 10 yard indoor paper puncher at best. Loud as hell.... but not even close to the power I was promised. That's what led me to build my own 1322. Honestly my 1322 is just as accurate, and is more powerful with 3 pumps than that POS was on a fresh CO2 cartridge. I'm doing another 1322 in a camo carbine configuration with 14" barrel here pretty soon. That's gonna be my porch plinker and truck gun, and will go with me on bike rides/canoe floats. I'd love to get a few of us together for some target shooting. I'm plum ate up with this stuff.
  24. Yeah we had a "Come to Jesus" meeting while you were gone. I ate a cracker and the whole 9.
