Crucifixion? Yes. Good. Out of the door line on the left one cross each.

Roll roll roll in za hay! Verewolf. There there wolf! What knockers! Why thank you Doctor! What hump?!?

I can no longer sit back and allow Communist infiltration, Communist indoctrination, communist subversion, and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids. I'm sorry too, Dimitri. I'm very sorry. All right! You're sorrier than I am! But I am sorry as well. I am as sorry as you are, Dimitri. Don't say that you are more sorry than I am, because I am capable of being just as sorry as you are. So we're both sorry, all right? All right.

Well we're not going to let you just walk out of here.

It's in the hole! It's a cinderella story! Wang it's a parking lot. You should get a free bowl of soup when you buy that hat. But it looks good on you.

I'm shaking it boss. I'm shaking it. When a man's mother dies his mind ain't right. What we have here is a failure to communicate!

Let's go into the bedroom and I will fill you in. What are you doing under the bed? This is for the cops. I'm calling the cops. Hey I didn't want to pull rank on you but I'm with the matress police. There are no tags on this bed! Isn't there a childrens book about an elephant named Babar? I don't know. I don't have any? Children? No books about elephants.

What is so funny about Blazing Saddles is that it completely makes fun of racism by being so over the top. Maybe I'm a bad parent but my kids love that movie.

Come on Joe it's all fair in love and war. Glad you said that Annie cause what we got going ain't exactly Love! Sylvester Stallone in Death Race 2000

It smelled like...Victory!

There there Tagart. Its just a man and his horse being hung by their necks. Lets face it I'm pooped! Why do I always get a warped one! Dang that was lucky. Done nearly lost a $400 handcart! Blazing Saddles.

Der Fuhrer. Now he vas a great painter. He could paint this entire flat in one afternoon. Two coats! The Producers (original)

There's another old saying Senator. Don't piss down my back and tell me it's raining. Outlaw Josey Wales Bonus - Dying ain't much of a living. Worms got to eat same as the buzzards.

Great looking fish especially that fat yellow perch! Congrats on taking out your boys and finding the fish! looks like a good time was had in sketchy winter weather.

Bill I agree with the Sunburst recommendation on the NFOW. I would assume the Eleven point folks are good as well. I just have not used their services. You should also check out the lodging at Sunburst Ranch as well as looking into West Plains.

That is a giant river smallie! With a fish of that size I would love to see him holding it up with two hands ,

Never tried serving over polenta, usually serve with potatoes. We do love kielbasa with pepper and onions .

Though they look good I don't like thick doughy crust pizzas . If we could get the dough right, I would probably like homemade pizzas more.

Looks like a great spread of meat there Mitch! Greta be darn!

@JestersHK I'd love to see you give it a try buddy. The pins and medallions look pretty cool. Might be able to knock out five in a weekend. Hit the 11 pt early then Barren Fork and Current. Next day Mill creek and Little Piney. Maybe even get Spring creek before Mill creek. Lots of miles but Just saying 😀.

I would agree with this statement. I pick up a regulations booklet or go on-line each year to see what rules have changed, etc. I have friends that contact me to find out changes since they don't read through the regulations routinely. Always seems easy to just plead ignorant when caught.

I am still on the MDC email list and received this notification of a new Blue Ribbon trout slam. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) and Trout Unlimited encourage anglers to test their fishing skills and pursue a “Blue-Ribbon Trout Slam” from Missouri’s nine blue-ribbon trout streams. “Missouri’s blue-ribbon trout streams are areas in the state where trout reproduce naturally,” explained MDC Fisheries Programs Specialist Andrew Branson. “The fish are wary of predators, which makes for an authentic and challenging experience for anglers.” WHERE TO FISH The Blue-Ribbon Trout Slam honors anglers who catch a trout in at least 5 of MDC’s 9 blue-ribbon trout streams: Barren Fork Creek in Shannon County Blue Springs Creek in Crawford County Crane Creek in Lawrence County Current River in Dent County Eleven Point River in Oregon County Little Piney Creek in Phelps County Mill Creek in Phelps County North Fork of the White River in Ozark County Spring Creek in Phelps County HOW TO ENTER The Blue-Ribbon Trout Slam is divided into three levels: Bronze: Catch a trout from 5 of the 9 blue-ribbon trout areas and receive a certificate and bronze pin. Silver: Catch a trout from 7 of the 9 blue-ribbon trout areas and receive a certificate and silver pin. Gold: Catch a trout from all 9 blue-ribbon trout areas and received a certificate, gold pin, and medallion. All pins and medallions awarded to participants have been provided by Trout Unlimited. Anglers need to possess a trout permit if they want to keep their trout. Trout of any size will qualify for the Blue-Ribbon Trout Slam, but trout under 18 inches must be released. Anglers can complete a Blue-Ribbon Trout Slam entry form each time they catch a trout. They may also submit a picture of their trout if they wish, but it is not required. Once participants accomplish one of the three Trout-Slam levels, MDC will verify their submissions and mail them their award. Additionally, anglers can have their successes listed on the MDC website. “This Trout Slam is a great new program that will encourage anglers to get outside and discover nature throughout the year,” said Branson. I have already done this and probably won't be back in MO enough to repeat this slam. I hope that some folks on here get the itch to visit and catch trout from these waters. There is a big difference in how they fish. Here's a few photos of fish from my trips in the past. Barren Fork Creek rainbow - gold ribbed hare's ear nymph under a indicator. Toughest thing about this trip was getting to and from the spots that I wanted to fish. Lots of hiking down and back up from the creek. Blue springs - no photo this was the hardest creek to fish due to its size, many blow down trees in the best looking holes, and spooky trout. Landed only one trout on a 1/64 oz white marabou jig. Crane Creek - Had to fish this one twice before landing my first trout. Have since caught trout most times that I fish the creek. I have always fished the upper wire road section. I have also caught grass pickerel on two occasions during Feb trips but didn't get any photos. Photo is my PB a 15 inch male caught on a weighted glo ball. Current River - My favorite trout river in the state. Usually target brown trout with big streamers and jerkbaits. My PB brown ( 23.75" - 5 lbs 4 oz) and rainbow (22" - 4 lbs 5 oz) trout both came from this river. Eleven Point - Caught my first rainbow below the bridge at the Greer access. Tough to fish from foot due to limited access and thick weed growth along river edges. Have fished it a few times from a boat and has a lot of variety of fish like chain pickerel and shadow bass as well as trout. Little Piney - no Photo - I caught my first confirmed stream bred fish (about 4 to 5" in length) in the upper section of the creek with a #14 tan scud. Mill Creek - I have only fished this creek a few times. Photo is one of the first rainbows that I caught there. The largest trout that I ever encountered there was 20+" and I rolled it with on a cicada fly during the 13 and 17 yr periodical hatch. That fish haunts me. North Fork of the White river - Caught my first rainbows while fishing with my wife and youngest daughter and using a canoe from Sunburst. Sorry about the extended mouth on this guy. Caught him on black and olive 1/16 oz marabou jig. Also caught my first knobfin sculpin on that trip as well . The next day I caught my first brown trout from that river in the red ribbons section below the Patrick bridge. Spring Creek - Fished in Oct and caught feisty rainbows with 1/32 oz white marabou jigs.

When I used to fish that river always did better with browns down by the suicide access. Destroyed a pair of wading boots billy goating back up to the car from the river. That was after a one fish day. Last time that I ever fished that river for trout.

Looks like a great winter fishing trip! Congrats! Should also be a good fry with those crappie😀.

Congrats @Daryk Campbell Sr on catching your first brown trout! You guys caught fish and have a story. No one got washed away. All and all a good day👍!
