Went down there Thursdays morning, cpl little males and watched a boat going by catch an 18-20" walleye...

Teddy passed Wed night down at the Landing, he liked a cpl of ya messin with him now and then, thanks for your kindness. You will see his girlfriend down there now more I am sure. I think the hatchery area was one of the old boys favorite spots. 9 yoa.

Nope, we had just got out of the vet, chest and all sounded good they said, was down to 157 from a high of 172. We went down for a short walk at the Branson Landing, 200 yards from car he did a little spin, let out the most god awful little hounddog yawl, and went down...I really kinda think it might have been some sort of aneurism in his head.

Teddy passed Weds night...Just Honey and I for now on.

Both mine are fixed, chipped and adopted or I should say re homed, got them from a friend that breeds them in Aurora. Had Teddy the male for a bit, added Honey to maybe perk him up a tad, he is 9 yoa, he needs a reward. 235, what a beast it was. We need a cpl Tibetans .

We are going to get down there as early as possible tomorrow, just getting home. Was a little to busy to cut my female loose, she likes to roam the banks.

No sir, you have some studs, Bordeaux? The back guys have mines head. We went down there, looked kinda packed, truck blocking road and a mudhole. So we drove to Forsyth and struck out. Did not really try to hard, we were just on a cruise. Hope our dogs meet, mine are babies, big guy 160 lbs at 9 yoa, girl is 110 lb at 5. The kid that wanted to fish never showed up

Pretty much be a check things out trip, fish for a bit. Taking a kid from Detroit down there maybe (should be interesting). Say hello if you like. Guess I will drive to Blunk.

We snuck down to your dock recently and visited a customer of mine fishing

The mutt and I went to the Landing today for a walk, I carried a little ultra with a 1/8 white/grey jig, did catch 2 little trout, 1 little crappie, and a perch lol. (Earlier pic, I know there is no snow on the ground now)

Last year someone fired a shot over my head at 4 am, dogged parked right before and made us move lol.

Can't wait for the little spring run so I can come over from Branson and say hello. Fish off the bank. Teddy is still around (Top), will have a new girlfriend (bottom), when you see us Don't shoot us lol.

I am only over there during the white bass run, CAN"T WAIT FOR THIS YEAR. So I just use two pretty much, swimming minnow, or a vibrex rooster tail lol. We will see you there this year, plus one more puppy probably lol.

Will have to check out this summer...I always stay in St Charles when I go to the ballgames anyhow (They let me take my puppy).

I was bankfishing on Long Creek for cats late last year, about 4 am someone fired a shot over my head from woods. First time I ever heard the 'wiz' of a bullet go by my head. Just a cpl seconds before shot, my Bull Mastiff down the bank let out a loud bark, I turned and headed back a split second before shot. He very well could have saved me. Needless to say we ran like jack rabbits back to car and got the hell out of there.

Where are you fishing there? Around St Charles somewhere, looks like a fun place to visit.

6 oz blue gill.

End of Tate? My dog and I set on that corner alot lol.

Don't like to admit it but I work at Fall Creek, some are just clueless I believe. Had one gal tonight ALLERGIC to Hickory, and she orders the slow smoked hickory ribs, then gets an allergic reaction, thought she was going to die at one point. (Ambulance came and she is just fine fyi). Why order smoked ribs if you are allergic to the smoke, or better yet do not have and eppy or benedryl?

Got to see the same cpl three guys there, hello again btw lol. About got smacked in the head from a rebound of a fish that got off (My fault, was standing behind ya, duh lol). Best part was when one of ya hooked a 20" fish and some guy hollered 'That's 20" sir, you can keep it'...I said 'he will let it go, save it', he was from Kansas, but barely spoke english..knew you all were down there for fun. Been just settin on the bank, catfishing and what else with what I have out on Long Creek, till I get some decent stuff replace what I had taking from me. Can't wait to start my nightfishing again. Glad to see you were catching some on those scuds Ted and I salute you!! HOLY CRAP BIG IMAGE LOL. (Looks weird since I look like the vehicle billboard for Lilleys, but never been in there)...THANKS FOR THE FORUM.

I have noticed people just do not know how to back up using thier sideview mirrors anymore.. Boat trailer, box van, mini man. When I am driving my little HHR and back up I just use my side mirrors. When I had my boat I would launch by myself with and hook on back of trailer, long rope connected to the bow of boat, fly in reverse and let that baby slide of trailer. Could launch a boat in seconds lol. Some people just have a hard time backing up things..and drive like Mario Andretti.

If I had something to haul it in..I would help ya out now and then...only off Mon/Tuesdays though. I am always out cruising around fishing off the bank somewhere anyhow. Doubt it would fit in my little HHR. https://www.facebook.com/roger.craig.165

As a strictly bank fisherman now since I lost what I had. I really got to laugh at alot of this, so the guy kept some fish. If I get lucky enough to catch something legally to eat, I am more than likely going to keep it. A few of ya are spoiled, way to 'by the book'. And I have been fishing TR since the 70's myself. Do miss my darn boat lol.

I caught a cpl walleye on Long Creek the other day, plus some nice whites that went shad crazy in front of me. And a nice channel.

Went out to the car today and gave my last two away to customers, time for us to raid the dock shop again. I should just shave him and plaster Lilleys Landing on his side
