  1. Sounds like a great trip Griz. I will mark the calendar and check work schedule. Pencil me in at the lodge and will love to get into any open seating. Had a great time last year. Getting to know the area better. So will be more prepared to meet at most accesses ☺ even if it changes a couple of times before I get there.
  2. Dan That's awesome! I laughed out loud just watching the video! We looked at getting fainting goats for our yard. Realized that I've invested way too much of native plants to have the goats eat everything. We could see ourselves sitting on the deck with some adult beverages scaring the goats and just laughing our butts off☺! I just can't imagine that getting old. Keep posting videos!
  3. Sounds like you had a good birthday trip and you caught fish. That's a bonus! Looking forward to more posts as you get out more with your kayayk.

    MOPanfisher That sounds really good. Haven't had salisbury steak in some time. Have to keep that in mind. Thanks!
  5. I do most of my fishing while wading. I would really kick myself if I lost one next to the bank. Now don't ask me how many tips I may have broken . I have lost only one overboard and can vividly remember what it looked like as it drifted into the depths.
  6. People will catch large brown trout on small flies, but may not catch too many slurping in midge or gnat dry flies. Big brown trout are top predators. Most of my success on browns larger than 20" was with reaction baits resembling baitfish or other trout. Think about using large articulated streamers, jerkbaits, or marabou jigs.
  7. I often resemble that remark myself☺! I also did have my air stream stream rod broken just beofre our trip down to Arkansas this summer. Was a bad holiday accident when your table top Xmas tree falls and breaks your fishing rod.
  8. Wouldn't he be wearing a yellow shirt☺?
  9. Got a question. Would any of you go after rabbits this early in the season? Went out on the 30th to hunt bushytails and bumped at keast three rabbits. I have always went after rabbits after the first hard frost and often not until after deer season. If I were to drop one, what should I be looking for in terms of possible disease? Spotted liver?
  10. She loves catching just about anything. What's worse is that she often wants to keeo it☺ Had to tell her to put down a couple box tortoises on our last hike in the woods.
  11. Congrats on a great day fishing! Sounds like a really good time!

    Tonight my Betterhalf made a pasta primavera. She used cooked sliced onions, carrots, green peas, and artichoke hearts. Also cooked with garlic and added parmesan cheese and served over pasta.

    Our favorite here in Columbia has both authentic chinese cuisine and some kicked up American chinese food. The owners also have an Asian market. They. Owned yhe market for many years and started the restaurant because they felt that there wasn't good authentic chinese food in town. Between the restaurant and market we can satisfy most of our cravings for Asian food. We also have three decent sushi places and a decent Thai place as well☺!
  14. Sorrry that you got trout parked down at Taney. Sounds like some nice fish. Jealousy from those stuck midstate going over 2018 budgets!
  15. PM sent
  16. I know a guy that likes to catch them on hook and line . Agree that they would be a bad live bait candidate.
  17. I still do. Though it takes a while to get enough tails to cover the shipping charges. Still it's fun getting them and we like to eat those bushytails.
  18. Sounds like a successful trip !
  19. Even if they didn't get much the feeling of being violated takes a long time to get over at least it did for us when we had the soft top of our convertible cut so they could get in and try and steal the radio. I hope that you do get the opportunity to get you stuff back or at least find out who might have taken your stuff.
  20. Good luck to you and your son. It's great that you will get to spend that time together. I hope that you two do well.
  21. I'm glad that you had pictures of fish and game associated with you comment ! Definitely a nice stringer of fish. I still personally have no confidence that I have cooked suckers the right way in the past. Still had lots of bones. Willing to try them again. Or just catch and release !
  22. Ness - Before I saw your fruitcake, I had the theory that fruitcake was neither made nor lost and that every existing fruitcake was just re-gifted through the ages !
  23. Those are a couple of slabs! Hopefully you know where he caught those Crappie!
  24. I know that I have at least one copy of the smallmouth waters. I haven't used that one as often as the trout maps. I was obsessed with trying the naturalized trout streams, which were more likely to be able to wade fish. I'll see if I have a second copy for the SMB.
  25. I've seen quite a few trip reports from Table Rock and LOZ where they didn't do as well as you did on your trip for the 5 or so hours that you fished. Never apologize for having a good day fishing, be it based upon numbers of fish or just pure enjoyment on lippin' a few.
