    Got lots, but will start with this one. One of my longhorn cows.
  2. This kind of talk belongs in the “politics” section. 😜
  3. Oh my. Ever hear the story of the catfish at the base of the dam that took an 8 year old boy over that chainlink fence on the south side of the river? Must have been around the late 70’s. Rumors are that divers went down and seen eyes as wide as a VW’s headlights. I was born in Sherman at TMC, tho we lived in Pottsboro, and had a farm over the line near Durant, Ok. When i was 16 i caught a 26lb striper fishing below the dam in my brothers 16’ jonboat. We would scoop up the shad that came thru the dam. Boy the memories will last forever. We used to wade the rivers in that area, and the 5’ long toothy fishes would swim right next to us. I have a couple brothers in Denison and Pottsboro, and a sister in Sherman. We get down there a few times a year.
  4. We have a club tournament that day out of Cape Fair if you don’t have enough boats, and others are looking for a tournament.
  5. Growing up, my home water was the Red River coming out of LakeTexoma. Grew up on that lake, and spent lots of time on the river catching stripers in the mid 20lb class. Living here now, my home water, or the one i have fished the most the past 20+ years, and enjoy the most is Pomme, and its tributaries. Lots of memories in Texas and on Pomme. One of those memories was when my son was 15. A group of he and a few buddies took off about 2 hours before dark to float a section of the Pomme river we had done to many times to count over the years. When i left for work around 6pm, they called and were putting in their yaks. Around 11:30 i received a call from my wife saying the boys haven’t been seen or heard from since 8pm. One of the boys lived close to the take out spot, which is where they were staying the night. After those parents contacted my wife looking for the boys, they realized they were not at either house. I remember driving that patrol car like i was Earnhardt Jr. to where the parents, along with water patrol and conservation were staged. When i arrived water patrol had located them stranded on a sand bar about a mile up stream with their boat. They said it got dark on them, and they couldn’t see with the clouds and no moon. Good memories.

    Squirrel?

    Airguns? Hmm, i may have a few of these. Still haven’t opened the wallet for a PcP, but im afraid it’s coming.
  7. Awesome build Jamie. How has it held up this year? Back in my chasing ducks every day during season years, we used a few different drift and layout boats in the marshes. Been out of that game over 20 years, but have lots of memories. That new drift will be sweet.
  8. Are you loose now?
  9. Shhzzz, i see people wearing them while walking on sidewalks ALONE, or in vehicles they are driving, ALONE, so im sure there are those weird types that have them on around their families. Weird is weird.
  10. Dan, i have not. Was trying to come up with a reasonable price before reaching out to eyeman. Reached out to a few people/companies and think i know what its worth. I actually have 2. The other is a Gen 3 touch. Both in good condition. Going to go Garmin again. .
  11. Heck, i see lots of ferries around. Most have pink or purple hair, those “gauge” things in their ears, tattoos up their necks, and hAve pants that fit WAY to tight around the ankles.

    Eye Candy

    Always fun getting new material to look at.
  13. Again, The Wrench makes a valid point. I was one of those guys that laughed at his “sometimes” nonsense, but after meeting, and fishing a tournament with the guy, now look at him as a friend, and someone i can cut up with, without either getting pissed. i went on to other hobbies the past 2 years, and see now that this place is more quiet than it was. That’s not all bad. As Daryk stated, every site goes thru that. i read a few topics in the Political section, and believe i may fit right in there, as soon as i start pissing some of you off with your outright political stupidity. “See, i started already”.
  14. As Andy stated, Garmin has led the pack for years, especially in the GPS spectrum. I too have had the major brands, and always compare others to the Garmin. Switching over myself this winter, as current boat has Lowrance when purchased.
  15. Just heard on the radio that getting the rona could have long term effects on men, potentially causing E.D. Some of you don’t need to worry, but you others better start wearing your mask.
  16. Dont ask that question. Sometimes the answer could hurt your feelers.
  17. Welp, still no PW. Looks like someone is trying to spare me the everlasting downdum of what i may see.
  18. Its in good condition. It’s a touch screen. I will see what going price is, and let ya know.
  19. Hiding in the woods.
  20. Need to see what’s behind that closed door.
  21. Hey, he had a valid point. Im thinking that ticks with the china flu are biting humans, and causing a new strain of tickidis
  22. Coulda text ya, but info for the masses. how much rubbing on the gearcase is to much from a bad spacer/thrust washer, and a person should consider a new housing? Prop dug in about 1/8”.
  23. Any of you Skeeter guys fish the Owners Tourney at Fork?
  24. Anyone else come for the grins? #novaccineforme #seewhatsinthatstuff?
