  1. MOPanfisher I understand how difficult it is to put your dog down yourself. We had our bordet collie for 12 years. She was a rescue and never really knew how old she really was. We knew it was time as she became more incontinent, was losing weight, had hip issues and trouble getting up and down the stairs. I took her out the last time very early in the morning to not wake the neighbors. That was the most spry that she had been in over a month. Broke my heart.
  2. We went through both sides in just under 5 hours. If I do that again I would go through one portion in the morning, go out and get lunch and then go back and go through the rest. Since they scan your tickets at each part instead of tearing it shouldn't be a problem going off site to get lunch. Only issue may be parking !
  3. Good to see some spring poking through after the ice issues. May mean some Missouri darters may be in their spawning colors when I get backthere next week! Sorry didn't mean to bring up fishing on this garden thread !
  4. Good luck! Can't wait to see if catch some more fatties.
  5. Congrats on those bass! They are pigs or did you just fill them with shot ! Those babies have been eating well or are full of eggs.
  6. Congrats on the new boat and your success on the trout and those stinkin bass! Hopefully get to see it in Dec.

    What's Cooking?

    Agreed. Got 7 days before heading back to MO, but will have to be back in MD 2nd to the 7th. Should be able to work in a possible Hank Shaw book tour event before I get back out East !

    What's Cooking?

    Not cooking myself but thought I would share what's for dinner. Fried oysters Duck breast served over sweet potato puree and duck hash.
  9. I love throwing those sticks and the leadheaded feathered bouncers ! I would definitely like to try those topwater flies! At least after I have caught a few already .
  10. I could see some of these MD browns tearing up those clousers ! Even those tidal stripers may bites thise as well.
  11. Good luck buddy! Can't wait to see those 1 am giant bows and browns! Wish I could join you, but would need an old man nap if I went . I am likely to try a different spot for those Maryland browns this weekend.
  12. Very nice! Should get you a few fish fries with those. Good luck!
  13. Just got through first two parts. Great photos and write up! Sounds like an adventure so far. Would love to see more fish but as you mentioned the fishing was slow. Can't wait to hear about that gar!
  14. Thats a pretty cool form of a mirror carp.
  15. I should have some streams figured out if you get out this way ! I'm sure that we can get you a freshwater trout in MD maybe a saltwater one in Delaware.
  16. Still not a bad day of action. Congrats! Glad that you strategically placed the bass over any identifying landmarks !
  17. Hope that you would be in a boat. May be anacondas in the water !
  18. It was close to 6 inches long. Would still need a few for anything more than a snack / appetizer !

    The reason for the pot roast was to set the stage for the scramble I made the next morning. Chopped onions, tomatoes, garlic, and the left over pot roast into similar sized chunks (except for the garlic). Cooked the meat in a little goose fat, added the onions and seasoned with garlic powder and a little smoked paprika. Once the onions were translucent, added and cooked the tomatoes. I beat five eggs with a bit of dried thyme and added to the mix. Let the eggs cooks a little bit added S&P then swiss cheese and served.

    Haven't posted a meal in a while. this was a pot roast meal that I made prior to heading out East. Done this recipe before, but is always a good inspiration for the cold winter day. Can't beat braised meats.
  21. Livie really liked getting close to the piranha as well. I think that this was one of the best set-up tanks in the aquarium. Another South American favorite fish of mine is the peacock bass.
  22. Thought of Ham fishing the Pacific waters with this tank of rockfish ! Good looking and great eating fish!
  23. Here's a fish on my bucket list. Then there is the goliath grouper !
  24. A few marine tanks that I enjoyed. Of course I want to catch every fish that I see. One thing that I did not like too much was that in there large community tanks they mixed species from all over the world instead of grouping by regions. The smaller tanks did focus on fish that were from the same regions.
