Havent been to this part of the lake in years so I thought we would give it a try. Caught a nice limit of Crappie, most were right around 12". Never lost sight of the launch ramp. Fish were on deep bluffs in the trees. Caught them from 20-40 feet deep all on jigs. Water temp was 52. Definitely a scope deal when they are that deep. About half I never even felt bite I would reel in and they were just on

Did you hit White Grill afterwards? Such good burgers. I stay in Nevada a lot when I work at the EL Dorado Springs Hospital

Thanks guys, when I googled it, it just said KC. Its still a 70 mile round trip to Branson. So its still BS that they do this.

Closest Core office to Springfield says KC, Im just going to keep putting that receipt on my dash I guess.

So I went to Bull Shoals and decided to buy my yearly pass. Of course no one is there so I just buy one out of the Kiosk. And it gives me this Temporary one that is only good for 14 days. If I would have known that I wouldn't have got it. I don't think I will have a chance to redeem it. I assumed the Kiosk would just spit out the actual pass. Does anyone know where I could take it do redeem it? Its almost like the set you up just to screw you out of $40

Nothing crazy to report. Its been a bit since I've been out. 11" and 13" Crappie. And a couple walleye 20" and 21". Just pulling cranks. Water Temp 55. They were all in 16ft or less. Trolled in the 20ft range and never had a bite

Here is mine, its beat up a little but it is 50+ years old. I just need to get it going for the winter. Is it worth rebuilding? I will be coming through your neck of the woods at the end of the month

Yeah I tried turning the prop and working the shift rod and she's still stuck, Do you have any leads on a lower that would work for me? Its an old engine and all the screw on the bottom side of the lower are all different, so someone has obviously had it open at some point. Its been working great until now

I have a 1972 Evinrude 18hp and the other day I put it in reverse and now it is stuck in reverse. I took the lower off thinking it was the linkage but it wasn't. Is there anything simple I am missing. I drained the fluid and there was not any chunks of anything.

Thanks guys

I know you have to get a yearly pass to go on Fellows but does anyone know if the boat and motor need to be registered with numbers and all. My little kiddo was wanting to go there and we have a Jon Boat and old outboard but they don't have titles so I cant register them.

Ceramic court those things and just rinse them off. I just had my new truck ceramic coated and they did all the glass too. Its like wax on steroids

I believe so

Went from a 2006 Ram to a mid size. The Ram was titled as a 1500 but the 2006 Mega cab had all 3/4 drivetrain and the guy that had it before me put 1 ton springs in the front and a extra leaf in the rear. IT was a big truck never had any issues besides normal wear parts 265K. Sold it and got a 26' Canyon, 310 hp 4 banger, only 35 hp less than the huge tired Dodge. Ive had it a month and have towed the boat a few times up and down the Branson hills. Not just saying this because I blew a crap load of money, but it tows so much better than the Dodge. The little 4 cylinder is a monster. Heck I towed my boat last year with my moms Subaru Ascent and it was great too. these new little Turbos are great. Not sure on the long haul but ill trade it in 2 years either way (Its the new company car..lol)

Red Crest is already on the regatta listing for next year

Thats the rumor, what do you guys think?

keep looking, it took me a while but I finally found an Skeeter Bass Boat trailer with a title for $250. Now I always buy permanent tags for trailers

Just dont be banging lures off their docks or boats and your good. Ive had my fair share of run ins with dock owners. But 99% of them just ask if they are biting. Every once in a while a Karen will come down screaming. ITs easier just to move to the next one instead of arguing with a wall. If you are lucky enough to have a dock on a public lake you just should expect people to fish around it occasionally Two weeks ago I was fishing a big community dock flipping stalls, a guy pulled up on his side by side and just sat by the walk way, when he saw I was packing up to move on he came on to the dock and said he waited because he didn't want to disturb the fishing. There are plenty of good ones to make up for the nasty ones.

I wish that was the case...I just got lucky yesterday

yeah, they changed it to 55+ but that didn't go over well, and most those grumpy old dudes that wanted it that way don't fish it anymore. Everyone is welcome now.

I hadn't been to TR since April. We jumped in the Wed. Cape Tourney. It think around 15 boats showed up which is good for a hot weekday. They were eating big ol' shiney hunks of metal. 12-4 for our 4 fish limit. enough for the win

Im finally going to get to head that way Wednesday. Its been a while for me too

Not sure about the new ones but I have an old 2006 Hemi Megacab 3/4 ton and 35's. Has 260k on it and still going strong. Only things I have don't are just typical maintenance. Just changed the original Wheel Bearing and Ball joints last month (that was a nightmare). Going to sell it soon though, just time for something new

I don't think Garmin counts the mount in the weight of their motor. Amazon list the shipping weight at 98lbs

I got the non GPS version for my boy for Christmas it works great. I cant imagine what I would need the GPS for, I mean were fishing off the bank.
