  1. I still have a Lansky but it mostly gathers dust. There's a Ken Onion edition Worksharp out in the shop and a Chef's Choice diamond wheel sharpener in the kitchen. They both work great with the Worksharp being the clear winner if starting with a dull knife. The Chef's Choice gets used a lot on the kitchen knives. Makes them into razors. Cannot abide a dull knife.
  2. It's a good point.
  3. I like to fish the White from a boat, especially at Rim. I do try to be careful, have yet to be thrown out of the boat anywhere, much less Rim Shoals. To me, North Fork is much more dangerous to the inattentive boat operator. But I've never even come close to falling out there.
  4. I'm a lot more interested in the saw part of this story.
  5. That makes me feel a little less left out.😔
  6. What's this? The girl waiting for all the guys to ask her to the prom before she picks the very best one?
  7. Don't think Richard is going to make it. Not a definite no but just will have to see, busy time of the year with family. Which we all understand, right before dismissing that concern.
  8. As long as you're there Thursday for chili dogs all will be well.
  9. Nope.
  10. What about Eric and any of his crew? I know they won't stay at the house but will any of them be around? And what about Mr. ZigJig Cross?
  11. I'm thinking it's just me. All the college boys are growed up, married and going to work every day like they should. And their dad is working too. But no, not me, I'm coming to jigfest, bearing chili and hotdogs. I can bring venison backstrap for breakfast again too. 🎯 Thinking Thursday night thru Sunday morning.
  12. Someday I'll understand one of your stream of consciousness posts, but it's not gonna start with this one.
  13. A hot loaded .45 LC even in an 8" Ruger is all I want.
  14. We care.
  15. Incredible midge hatch right now. The swarm is like looking through fog
  16. I hunted groundhogs in their earths with jack russell terriers for years. Just a lot of fun and they can give a dog a good fight. Very exciting. I've seen quite a few in trees over the years. They can sure cause some damage, in barns and they're really hard on soy beans. Seldom had difficulty getting permission to hunt them, but did get a few odd looks.
  17. I tried a young one one time. They're the hardest animal to skin I've ever done. And the meat is tough. You must know how to do them the right way, around here it's a big nope.
  18. Congratulations Marty, super deer right there. I dredge heart in flour with a little granulated garlic added to the S&P. And then flash fry. Jim, I do liver the same way only sliced about 1/2" thick. Hot bacon grease is the best. Still pink in the middle is done. Don't forget your potatoes and onions!
  19. I know I sound like a broken record but St. Croix Premier 6'6" MLF sounds like something you might like. I have one and it's plenty for sheepshead, speckled trout and the like. Good rod for whites and hybrids.
  20. I'm not a turnover expert except when it comes to Bull Shoals putting stinking brown water for several days into the White River during jigfest and then I know trout don't bite. Which makes me an expert compared to Patrick Mahomes. Who is busy with other things at the time.
  21. Do I need to bring chili? And hotdogs and buns and onions and shredded cheese?
  22. Look everybody! Fresh meat!! Joking of course. Show up. Bet you twenty you have a great time.
  23. Drove to Jefferson City yesterday and back to Ozark today. It's spectacular right now. We've got all the ingredients, trees had plenty of moisture early, they're dry now, had a hard freeze and it's early enough very few have already gone to brown. As pretty of a year here as I have seen in a long time.
  24. We drove to Macinac Island in October 4 years ago. When we got into middle Michigan we thought it was time to stop for the night. It was homecoming weekend at Michigan State. There was not an available room anywhere within a 100 mile radius. And the upper part of mainland Michigan is not that densely populated. Hotels were few and far between, we wound up being about an hour from our destination when we finally found a place to stay. No reservations, which we just don't do on weekends at all anymore, no matter where we plan to stay.
  25. They relocate them to a pit after they're through breathing. Trapped feral hogs so far as I know are destroyed on the spot.
