What flies were you using on top?

Two jump seats and two oars come with it if someone us interested. I'm in Mt Vernon mo

Hope this lasts till October 2nd

Ill post up some pictures. Its a beast of a canoe.. Two paddles and two seats

Yeah auto correct sucks

It was pretty low the other day but I know a few deep spots that require some walking but will be worth it. Have some new flies to test so it'll be fun

Let me know ahead of time and we can go together John. Be nice to have you along

Like 350 for it can send pictures if wanted. Its osage brand made in Missouri! Good shape last trip was north fork last spring.

Be down there around 630 again should be a good day! Hopper time

Its amazing how we tend to overcomplicate these ordeals. Lol

Good grief you really tear them up up there!

Really hoping to get down more than once this fall

no photo to accompany the story but my biggest to date was a bout eighteen inches out of the Niangua above Bennett springs. Fishing with dad as always wading with night crawlers tied around my neck in a sour cream container my father had rigged up for me and my brother. Four pound test and size 8 bait holder hook. I was very excited to pull it out from under a brush pile. Still fails in comparison to Dads 23 incher from the same place. I have never seen a smallmouth that big since then. He kissed it then returned it to the water saying" it is your lucky day mister fish." He stills talks about how he should've had it mounted. I always had visions of returning there and catching that same fish but never happened. Before cell phones had cameras there we great memories that still have the same imagery that a picture provides. Great thread as always AL. Alex

End of September and into October is the usual time frame...

I live just far enough away I can't just roll down on a whim so I just want to get a gauge on how is going. Thank you hk. Tied some sculpin patterns I want to as well as some streamers for the higher flow.

Planning on heading down around first of October and wondered if anyone has been night stalking lately? Probably get there around 7pm and stay all night.

I'd like to see a picture of a pink hopper. . . if you have time sir. Thinking crane will be turned up on hoppers soon as well.

This fall is looking good!

It is a sad thing to think that mu being a midwestern pillar for sports and academics would not realize the financial burden of caving to sjw that just wanted attention. Anytime you fall down to this level there are consequences. People don't want to be around those types of situations. Sad indeed...

Not a bad day laker !

Cornmeal and creole for these guys! Probably some taters as well! Pond fishing is a high ranking matter for me as well. The big one was on the fly rod.

Went at six fifteen this morning to a family pond. Caught a lot of bass in two hours.biggest was twenty inchea or so strong four pounder. Throwing brush hogs and swim baits.

Spring bwo All year griffiths gnat Elk hair caddis and hopper for summer. Fall griffiths

Again just leave these guys alone if you don't care for there comradery. As you say here it is public and they have a right to congratulate a friend on a good day on the water. I have zero experience with you as a poster and I see these men sharing tips success stories and good times. Please jut leave them alone and find somewhere else to be public with your unhappy banter.
