Thanks for posting a report. Always nice to hear about other folks successful or not so successful trips to find what worked or didn't. Congrats on the fish that you caught! 19 inch spot is a decent fish😁.
Dan you are becoming quite the travelling walleye guy. Congrats on catching them in Beaver! Good luck today. Can't wait to see you holding some southeast MO river walleye!
Congrats to your daughter on her personal best (albeit first) smallie😁! Nithing better than the excitement that a kid has when they feel that tug on the line and the smile when they hold their first fish! I hope that there are many more firsts for you guys in the future and many more fish😁.
Looks great @trythisonemv! I hope that there are still a bunch of chants around when I get back to MO on the 13th. I'm in a suite for the week and can make my own meals. So would like to have some chants and eggs, steak, etc..
We were coming back from Delaware three four weeks ago and stopped at a produce stand that had a large selection of vegetable, herb, and flowering plants for sale. Looking at the dill plants Livie spotted some swallowtail caterpillars. So we ended up buying the pots that had the critters. There was a total of four caterpillars and they all became chrysalises. So far she has released one male and two female black swallowtails . Hopefully the last swallowtail will emerge soon from its chrysalis. Thankfully Livie hasn't begun scouring the milkweed plants along the road for monarchs. Though that may be in our future.
Good luck. We lived in Columbia so Hazel creek was close enough. I have only fished Pomme once and saw a giant (42+") come out from a dock and look over our baits, but no interest. Only had four encounters that day and no hook-ups. I haven't caught a pike yet, but have been bit by the musky bug and will hound a friend of mine to take me if I get a chance to get back out to MO this Sep/Oct.
We don't have this option . So I mix and knead by hand. I have never tried some of those ultrafine Italian flour. Can't find those readily around here.
Looks good @ness! Love to eat homemade pasta. Just don't make it often enough to be really good at it. Or at least good enough for it to not be a bit of a chore.
Nice photos @Flysmallie! Would like to see him catch a musky on a fly in MO. Though I am glad to see someone catch something on your trips 😁. Has he ever tried Henry Sever or Hazel Creek lakes in the fall?
