  1. The real problem is there are too many people for not enough planet to allow it to stay unspoiled and wild. I'd like to have more solitude and fewer people on the river too. But as much as I'd like that, I can't see where shutting people out of being able to get on the rivers is going to happen. I will say that there are other states that do a better job of managing their river resources that people want to love to death too. Ever been on the Snake River around Jackson Hole?
  2. Congratulations Phil, it's been a good run for you.
  3. I think we have a new drunken poster! At least I hope he's drunk and doesn't always use as many exclamation points!
  4. I guess it could have been worse.
  5. Get that fish back in the water STAT!
  6. Stockton's not going to run out of LMB cause this cat fed a mess to his family any more than it is mushrooms cause a bunch of you guys kill them by the hundreds.
  7. I don't much care for pits, rottweilers or pinschers, I've seen all three go off kilter too much to suit me. We've got a big dog that I am getting to like though, he is half Great Pyrenees and half Australian Shepherd. Big boy bark for sure very alert and he is very athletic, thus far the temperament is superb. Takes no crap from the other dogs but doesn't offer any up on his own. Coat might be an issue, he's as hairy of a dog as I've ever had and that's for certain. I'm old school about problem dogs. Sometimes dogs just run off or something and don't come back.

    Nfl Draft

    It's hard for me to believe the SEC defensive player of the year won't make it in the NFL. Desire and heart make players nearly as much as raw physical talent. It'll be an interesting story to watch unfold. Haters wanting him to fail notwithstanding. I wish the young man the best.
  9. No you do not. It's great grilled. I spritz with a little EVO, a little Balsamic Vinegar and sea salt and that's it for heavenly good Asparagus
  10. +1 on the Leaky Roof. I've got a couple of their growlers I need to get refilled.
  11. I blame it all on the otters.
  12. Beautiful shots, thanks for posting. We were out there last 4th of July. What a place.
  13. Only second place? Couldn't do first? (joke - that's a great day and congratulations) Especially cool that you got to do it with your brother.
  14. I hit it pretty hard Saturday on the James River with similar results. First cast was a nice goggle eye on a chart/orange spinner bait. Second cast was another and I thought it was going to be ON!. Didn't catch another fish until after 2:00 and nothing over 12 inches, maybe a half a dozen fish all day and I tried everything I know to try.
  15. It's what the regs say, not what we think makes sense or what someone who wrote the regs was thinking about at the time. If you're fishing with more than three rods, you'll be safe with labeling them. If you don't and you run across the wrong agent then you might find out what some people can be like.
  16. I figure I owe that much to society.
  17. I hated that floor. I've got bad knees and it really bothered them, plus everything on the floor got wet if there was the least bit of water in the boat. I figure it's probably less than 50 pounds of added weight. I hope I get 14 years out of mine, If I do, I'll be close to done by that time anyway. It's going to the James tomorrow and going to serve duty as it's model calls for. Grandson and one of his buddies are coming down and we're taking an overnighter. I'll haul the gear and the two of them can enjoy his new canoe.
  18. Cut the plywood to fit, painted it and screwed it to the ribs. Took all of about two hours. I do really like the boat.
  19. I bought a 2006 Shawnee Commissary Boat, (48" x 20'7") two spider chairs, two more seats with pole mounts, EZ Loader Trailer, low hour 2008 9.9 Yamaha, 58lb 12V Minnkota, hummingbird LCG,battery in good condition and three life jackets last November for $5500. Everything was in like new condition. I hated that floor with the ribs running front to rear and have since put in 1/2" CCA plywood floor with non-skid porch paint that matches the boat. Huge improvement for not much $$ ! $3800 for mid 90's hull and trailer sounds high to me too.
  20. Glad to see this report. We're doing an overnighter Hootentown to Horse Creek this weekend.
  21. If you use more than 3, you have to label them with your name and address or your conservation number. Max of 33 hooks total. You're correct about the 3 hooks on A-rig.
  22. I'm with you. Day in and day out Maxima just works best for me. Don't feel the need for anything but a Palomar knot either. My fishing life is already complicated enough.
