Heck of a day!

You get a lot of the credit for it. Being all pissy about not liking all the threads about it and all. Starting a few on your own IIRC. Its no thing to me, but apparently you and a few others always have something negative to say about that bait.

Then what will you do for yours? I got mine already.

Lovey just about killed our rooster last night for scratching around in her grandkids pumpkin patch.

You've got a good eye Clay.

What I said is true. There has been a LOT of research done on Table Rock Lake water quality. It's easily googled. You can learn a lot and while I've been doing this for a living for the last 40 plus years, the main thing I've learned is there are rarely simple answers to what often look like simple questions. You asked a specific question about Big Cedar Lodge wastewater treatment. And you got a factual answer.

I caught a gizzard shad last Saturday trolling a #7purple tiger flicker shad right in front of Ruark Bluff. And no it was not foul hooked. I really regret not taking a picture of that one.

But do get the super glue gel. And do use a jig head with a guard.

Plowed ground.

Those two rivers haunt my memory banks. They are incredibly beautiful, both of them.

Another tomato that I've had good success with here in SWMO is Super Fantastic. Glad to see all the love for the Cherokee Purple, those ugly tomatoes are about my favorite too. A similar heirloom type is Black Prince so if you see any of those go ahead. I think it's always a good idea to have some variety. This year I went back to an old standby and planted some Better Boys, and two types that are new to me, Celebrity and Fourth of July. And of course Cherokee Purple.

Big Cedar Lodge has a state of the art Sequencing Batch Reactor wastewater treatment plant. It is operating at about 60% of its rated capacity. Phosphorus is removed via chemical coagulation and post secondary treatment filtration. The effluent is disinfected with high intensity U.V. lamps. In the entire history of the operation of that facility there has not been even one instance where the treated effluent failed to meet all permitted limits.

Good plan Ness. Except you should get at least one tat. Everybody needs at least one.

I'm 63 and hunted and fished all my life in all kinds of places and had exactly one problem where someone broke the window on a crappy old Datsun B-210 that I parked at a ramp on the Niangua and left it for 3 days. They got a $50 cassette player. I sure hope it's not time for my number to come up again. I'm just a big dummy. Folks don't tend to mess with me. Lovey and I were at a Springfield Cardinals game a couple of weeks ago. Walked out the gate and I said something like "How you guys doing?" to a couple of guys just around the corner from the gate. The answer was "Fine sir, how about you?" I was fine too. When we got to the truck Lovey asked me, did you see that guy open his knife when we walked around the corner? I was all about nope. I'm not the victim type and maybe it shows or maybe I'm just lucky. Either way, I promise you all the so called bad people in the world all added up won't keep me from having the good times I know and love.

I was down there one April a few years back. Fished the lake a day and the tailwater a day from the North bank. Lost some big jigs and caught one about 30 off the bank. That will make you OK with a few jigs. Fished the lake with live shad with a guide. When it was on it was incredible as in fast. Nothing really big though, 5 to maybe 15. But when you have 30 or 40 of those in a day you think, "heck of a lake".

If it was me, it would be for big stripers. That is one heck of a lake.

Thanks. It is kind of a cool old house place. Proud to have been able to save it. Original construction was in 1900. By a lot of standards, that's not really all that old. But it does have a certain character that you don't find everywhere. We went pretty far out of our way to try and keep it that way.

Nothing to add other than good thread.

Asking price is $269 K. Your $250 K will probably get it bought.

This is what I used until I got hold of some of Dave's heads. His are better but these work too. Those jigheads are common as dirt. You do need to trim the weedguard a little bit. It's really more about technique, having the right weight head, right sized hook and the elaztech if you ask me.

And then I got busy with kids and grandkids and forgot to take anymore pictures. Sorry

LINE FIGHT!!

That does it. I'm getting me a Royals hat. TODAY.

It's a good morning to catch up on your laundry.

Well then. Nuff' said. Other than glad you had one heck of a trip.
