My kids hate that I know all the lyrics to this song 🤣.

Go ahead and rub it in buddy 🤨 LOL!

I think that we just targeted them too late in the day. Most brown spots were hammered by the time we got after them.

I saw the Moody Blues at the same venue as we saw James Taylor. That was a good concert. Never saw Pink Floyd but saw both David Gilmour and Roger Waters separately. Eric Clapton was playing with Waters on that tour. Saw Clapton on his own tour later.

Pete you may not remember but when @Ham and I met you by the dam we missed the slam by not catching a brown trout. 🙄

Sausage and gouda Flatbread pizza. Little salad topper 😁.

Awesome! Excited to see those big darters 🤣. Congrats!

You sometimes have to really look for the males or supermales. They're out there. May have to pass on the many brown ones. We got @Daryk Campbell Sr on one a few years ago.

Homemade sauce. Been slow cooking all afternoon.. Going to have spaghetti and fresh garlic bread.

They always did have flare for colonial/period clothing. I didn't see a tomahawk or a bowie knife .

They can be bad during the day as well. My buddy had one bite through his waders while teal hunting. I actually get more worried about otters while wading, especially when I can no longer see them.

Knowing @vernon probably going to get snow !

Spin tackle with #26 tanago hook small piece of of redworm. Did almost get spooled at the pier last week but that's a different story.

I saw Styx on their Paradise Theater Tour. Not my favorite concert. My least favorite concert was the Cars with Wang Chung as the opening act. The Cars were immobile and did nothing different than their albums. Wang Chung was better. My girlfriend at the time bought the tickets so we still Had Fun Tonight!

What seemed like the longest concert was Ravi Shankar. We sat on wooden benches for two and a half hours before we left. He was still playing, but he sits on cushions . Most underwear onstage was at the Frank Zappa concert. Most opportunistic concert was seeing the Who at the Meadowlands. I got the tickets the morning of the show and had to drive almost three hours to get there.

When I saw Aerosmith in the 80's a couple was arrested for having sex and Steven Tyler wanted to know what song got them motivated. The warmups were Rose Tattoo and Pat Travers (Boom Boom out go the lights!) I also saw the Kinks in the 80's and Billy Joel when he released the Nylon Curtain album. FYI there never were any steel mills in Allentown. They were all located in Bethlehem and Hellertown PA.

Thought that this was Hilarious. I must be a sick man🙄!

Females do not have that spot. Based upon it's size that is not likely to be a juvenile and more likely to be a female. I have gone more with distribution on identification between the two species.

Did you notice the "fluorescent" patch on their heads? Most of the topminnows, e.g., studfish, blackspotted, blackstriped, plains, starhead, etc., in MO have a similar patch but in different shapes and sizes. A size 18 or 20 fly would catch many of those smaller species. I've caught bleeding shiners and southern redbelly dace on elkhair caddis and hare's ear nymphs.

If you get over to SWMO and fish the Spring river, Elk river, Indian Creek, Neosho, etc. you can catch the redspot chub which looks just like these guys. From Indian Creek. However any river or creek that ends up in the white River system like Roaring river still have the hornyhead chub like this male from RR.

I was on a kind of anti Tom Hanks phase at that time and didn't bother to see that one. Though I did see Saving Mr. Banks with the family.

Ok what concerts have you been to that a noteworthy at least to you. First concert was 38 Special and Kansas. We had 12th row seats. Best concert for me was the Eagles - three hours of just them and they let Joe Walsh be Joe Walsh Saw Joe Walsh in Rockefeller center and we got our section screaming for him to play ILBTs but he wouldn't do it. Look it up or PM me if you want the real song title. That was my anthem back in high school. Even had a personalized license plate with it as well. Oh and Stevie Nicks was there but we left during her show. Saw Ray Charles in Ft Lauderdale Most underdressed was when we went to a Jean Pierre Rampal concert in Boston. Saw the Turtles at a music festival in Bethlehem PA, also the Mommas and Pappas. Got alcohol service as a minor at a David Gilmour concert in the Hartford symphony hall. Most relaxing concert was James Taylor at an open air amphitheater. We sat and laid on blankets on a grassy hill. Vendors came around with mixed drinks in pressurized backpacks. Biggest disappointment was having stayed out to get 3rd and 5th row tickets for a Blue Oyster Cult show that they postponed and made all tickets general admission. So pissed I didn't go to the show. Just got my money back. My son loves to point that out anytime Godzilla or Don't fear the Reaper comes on the radio Took the kids to see the Blue man group. That was a lot of fun. Not a concert but enjoyed the two Harlem Globetrotter games that we went to with the kids as well .

I always hated the beaver that would let you get within 10 to 15 feet away then slap its tail. Seemed like they loved doing that on foggy nights🙄

Nice trip! Looks like a strong year class for next years keepers.
