They are up at Kissee if that tells you anything.

I've met him a time or two at local put in spots. Seems like a nice enough fellow.

Royalex boats are now selling at a premium. Up about $400 to $500 since last year's catalogs came out. I have a very well thought of grandson graduating HS and I bought him a royalex We No Nah Prospector 16 today for $1600 with skidplates and a couple of paddles and was glad to do it. That boat will never lose any value and should last most of if not all of his life. Last year I could have got it for around $1200. Hopefully he'll remember that when it's time for me to go to the old folks home and will make everybody pick a nice one.

The guy is a fast giraffe with decent hands. The NFL will love him, pay him and the team that gets him will forgive everything if he helps to win games. Assuming he can stay out of jail. That's about the only thing the NFL won't forgive, missing games for being in the slam.

I know I'm not supposed to say or even think anything like this but there is at least one otter living in that hole above Greenbridge.

What Mad River boat is that? A Legend 15 maybe? Looks like you guys had a nice trip.

I'll be watching two grandsons Saturday AM play baseball in Carthage. Freshman DH and Senior CF on the same HS varsity BB Team. Senior is getting a JUCO ride and his little brother is the bad one of the two. Forgive me for liking this better than the Redbirds, though I really really like them too.

I'm glad there are calm well reasoned people like you in this world and on this board. Good luck with making sure Crooked Creek is open for reasonable use by the public.

Buffalo or Kings should both be perfect by this weekend, absent any more significant rain.

It will be a good time. Every single time I've gone to one of the outings that have arisen from one of the good fishing sites it has been a real positive learning, fun, fish catching deal, filled with people that I'm proud to have met and become friends with. I'm certain this one will be no exception. It's always (well nearly always) a good thing to be able to put a name with a face. River time builds a friendship like nothing else.

Kentucky handed the Huskies that game with very poor foul shooting and the lowest scoring game they had all year. Not to take anything away from the Huskies because they did win. But honestly I thought it was a very poorly played game at both ends of the court by both teams. Too many turnovers and really poor shooting from the field. Definitely not a classic NCAA championship, at least to these eyes.

Boat is going to a fine young gentleman in Willard who has three boys.

Yes sir, it is I. And that IS the same boat. Tell them how good it is. You know, how you can carry two or three dozen decoys and how we were always safety conscious and would never overload a boat or anything like that. Remember that day when Bailey walked about a mile across the marsh to offer a friendly hello to our hunting neighbors?

Yes and Google Earth is a liar. OR you had it right and were looking at way way upper Bryant.

14 foot jon, 6 HP Johnson and trailer. The boat is set up for a duck blind and I will give it away too. Boat has had a rough life and has several leaking rivets and a place about 3/4 inch long on one of the strakes that is torn. JB weld would fix everything or a mig welder would even be better. Boat has a plywood floor in it that's pop riveted to the braces. The duck blind is sweet, conduit frame and camo netting with rippy hay tied to it. Best part about the blind is the stabilizers that work like manual power poles on all four corners of the boat. I've killed a lot of ducks out of this boat, it's nickname is the Grand Pass Special, aka GPS. It's been on the local flows a time or two as well and there might be a little bit of smallmouth slime in a few places. The motor was tuned up in 2013 at Tangora in Nixa. Trailer is fine for the purpose, good LED lights, bearing buddies and there is nothing wrong with it at all. I bought a Shawnee this winter and won't ever use this rig again. Rather than sell it, I'd rather give it to somebody who will actually use and appreciate it. A young family guy who otherwise wouldn't have a boat or somebody like that. I'm not drunk or stupid or trying to scam anybody. You can PM me here with interest. P.S. I have titles for everything.

James - Hootentown to Horse Creek for an overnighter. Beaver - Brown Branch to Bradleyville for a one day or an overnighter if you want to take your time. Bryant - don't know

Third. What a beautiful smile!

Whose boat is it again and what did every single response you got say about this whole partner thing? But let's set that aside for a minute. Find yourself a good used 6 HP Evinrude and you are set up as long as you have half a brain or more and use it,

I think you ought to use half the money you make at your two summer jobs, get a 16' jon and a 9.9, haul it around in the back of your pickup that you saved up for and bought yourself and fish every chance you get. But don't go partners with anybody on anything ever.

I'm a big guy too and fish with other big guys. 15 HP Yamaha pushes the 48" Shawnee fine. I would get the 20.

What? No humpback blue / chrome rebel? No rebel craw crankbaits?

And a free pretty wife. Nice boat man. Do you think it will be able to get up on plane with that small of a motor?

Not possible.

Start after dinner.

God bless and keep your mother, make her feel warm, safe and welcome.
