I live in Ozark and my garage is full of them, My parents live kind over your way by Linden and my dad was complaining about his shop being full of them too

Let's do a Wednesday tourney soon out of Cape. I will show you my spoon ways. Its a lot of fun

I wouldnt pigeon hole him, I now he has whacked more fish on the Rock than i may ever catch. Starting soon the only thing on my deck will be a flutter spoon and a sexy dog.

I bet Champ was out in 50ft scoping with a minner. I went up the James all the way to McCords bend today. Mainly crappie fishing with my lil man. We did pretty good. Water temp way up the James was 59. Flatt Creek I saw 64. Water was very clean and clear above Bridgeport. Below Bridgeport water was nice stain but not muddy

I have a corded bubba blade and I like it, but I use my old mister twister blades. I don't really like the blades that came with it

It is a weird discussion, I catch so many spots between 12-15 inches. And if they say the average age of a spotted bass at 15" is 6-7 years its at the end of its life anyhow. If that's the case we should keep them at 12". Either way I don't think it will have much of an impact. I can think of many days in tourneys I wish I could have kept that 1lb rat......but the other guys would have to so it wouldn't have probably mattered

Looks like they caught them good. 26.67 for the win with a 8.14 largemouth and a 5.5 smallmouth

I was up there last weekend and never saw one, Went from Bridgeport to McCords Bend, and also up Flat Creek a ways. I never see the numbers in the spring like I did 7-8 years ago.

I love these reels, I have a fleet of different presidents but I like the xt's the best

yes they are

https://www.basspro.com/shop/en/pflueger-president-xt-spinning-reel I have quite a few of these, and this is the best deal I've seen, I went and grabbed another at the Springfield store today

Where are you guys staying?

Shameless plug, I work for a beer and a steak at Table Rock. Not a guide but I could point you in the right direction. Holler that weekend

my Mo, Border Lakes, and trout stamp auto renewed last month

I work nights and there is a point in the winter when the days are short, that I go to bed when its dark and wake up when its dark and never see the sun....it sucks

I was working at a hospital a couple months ago and the person died in a room next to where I was working. The next night that was the room they gave me to put my patient in for a sleep study. I know its normal but kinda sat weird with me

I fish Bull a lot, i dont really know the guides, but the good news is there are crappie and walleye from dam to dam. I dont think there is a lot of unproductive water. A lot of it depends on where you are staying. Bull stretches out a long ways. Del Colvin is a guide I think is mainly out of the dam area. Jordan Isaacs is a guide that does a lot on Bull on Table Rock. He is always posting limits of huge Crappie. If you have Facebook go to Bull Shoals lake crappie talk. There are some guides on there that post frequently. RIP Buster Lovin the walleye king on upper Bull

I think its curiosity. I know from diving the bass love to just come up and hang out next to you. We used to sit at the bottom and ding a rock on our tanks the bass would come right up to check it out. And whenever your diving if you look back it always seem like you have a trail of bass just following along. I've always said this but if your an avid bass fisherman you need to do some diving in our lakes just to see how many big ones there are. 3-5 pounders every single time you go down

I had to replace my axle a couple months ago and did away with my surge brakes. They were nice when I towed with my little 2 door Jeep but my 3/4 ton doesn't really care if there is a 19 ft boat back there. Also a lot easier to change a hub on the side of the road now if need be. I would be more worried about getting my bearing freshened up if its been a while if your going on a long trip. That being said I have some extra calipers that were pretty new if anyone wants them. I had them replaced and then a brake line broke and I never bothered fixing it. from a 2004 tracker marine trailer https://trailerparts.com/products/brakes/disc-brake-parts/calipers/tiedown-caliper-46304-fits-3500-lb-6000-lb-axles-painted-black.html?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiA19e8BhCVARIsALpFMgFk6C9N4DURpNclFUDcxf7ENwcvBBXNuKYPffF9yZQfkowqOFIVAUUaAso1EALw_wcB

Polar Bear Tournament I think it said 41 Teams. 20.07 lbs to win

One morning I went for a ride with a friend that has a 36 FT Catamaran at Big M. He took me back to where I was parked at Shell Knob, we hit 108 and it felt like nothing in a boat like that. It all about the boat your in. 60 in a bass boat feels way faster

Fin an Feather usually has them. I make my own with a lighter hook. They way i see it is Im on 6lb line with a spinning real with good drag, Im not going to bend them out unless i just horse them in. I think Dutch makes some that are a little more unique than the typical ned head. He seems to catch a lot on the ned

Last call before i put this on Facebook and have to deal with all that comes with it...Make me an offer!!!!!

KDOT app i just downloaded says I-70 is closed still. Guess ill have another day off. Sleep studies can wait
